Genres run together here like slightly melted but highly enjoyable Neapolitan ice cream. Trevor “Trouble” Andrew brings together a host of heads including Lil Jon, Spankrock, Amanda Blank, Santigold, Diplo, Stunnaman, Hollywood Holt, Curren$y, Ninjasonik, Jackie Chain and still more. All for the free in anticipation of Trouble’s nationwide tour and other slated summer releases held up his sleeve like a trick card.

“I was in the process of recording my new full length Trouble Andrew album Dreams of a Troubled Man and the mixtape came together on the side because so many friends and artists were around hanging out and recording shit through the process that we didn’t even realize I was making a mixtape until we had it finished. It was cool to do a project that didn’t really have to be consistent or have a story except that we all are individuals. That’s why I love mixtapes.”

For the uninitiated or uncertain, feel free to stream and try it. While it might not be for all, there will be some who’ll indulge and, with all these cool personas abounding, there’s bound to be a couple of tracks worth the hard drive space.
