5 Years on....House of Balloons revisited

[We Major]

So tomorrow marks 5 years since House of Balloons was released, 21st March 2011.


To this day it's still and I don't think it's been matched by anyone, including The Weeknd. I was and still am fascinated by the sound and feel of the mixtape. I remember when it was out I found the artwork interesting, the guys name and the mystery behind him, then I listened to the tape...

That beat switch on House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls

Wicked Games

The Knowing, what a closer

Not a weak track on the mixtape, I'll be giving it a few spins tonight

I was just telling someone the same thing the other day. I told her that i wasn't feeling his newer music as much as i did the first 3 mixtapes.. The atmosphere is crazy listening to this mixtape. One of my favorites.

R&B 808s & Heartbreak, don't play yourself.

808s is in a category of itself. It's one of the most influential albums ever.

I was a nikka who hated. My chick put me on some years back and ive been hooked. Minus this mainstream shyt i truly feel like those 3 mixtapes were lowkey greatness

Always thought this was trash, but I liked "The Morning". Haven't played that joint since early 2012
