“Speed of Sound” (ft. Big Sean) - Mike Posner

My boy Mike Posner’s mixtape dropped a day early and I’m here to share it with you! Sorry I’m a bit late…I got my hands on it last night before I knew he would be okay with it spreading…so I didn’t want to spread the leak until I heard from him. But incase you haven’t downloaded it yet, download it here. Features include Kid Cudi, Big Sean, Bun B, XV, and more. Great production on the tape. Speed of Sound is my favorite so far. Dropping an Enya sample on a hip hop song? Ridiculous.

I am also obsessed with the art on the mixtape cover. I was talking about it last night and my interpretation is as such: his first mixtape explained how it was only “A Matter of Time” until he was famous. Now he’s got “One Foot Out the Door” with one still in school at Duke (and that foot has the clocks behind him that you saw from his first mixtape cover where he’s sitting in class at a desk), the other foot is going out into the world filled with Salvidor Dali-esque clocks…symoblizing surrealist artwork. Surrealism…it’s all surreal what he’s walking into so quickly, while still keeping one foot in school. I love it. Very clever.
