He totally departed the great music he made in his early <em>Dedication</em> mixtapes and just seemed to sell out or become a different person. Every song since than has been a pain to listen to, BUT I finally might have found a glimmer of hope. This new song off his upcoming album entitled “Rich As F*ck (Feat. 2 Chainz)” kind of goes hard and I’m kind of hooked. The beat is simple and minimalist, but it works well for Weezy. I’m hoping this is the sign of good things to come from Lil Tunechi.</p>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45348839071http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45348839071Thu, 14 Mar 2013 12:15:32 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/0377ecc515068db64fa849b7dcd71464/tumblr_mjfbaiK6dL1rrvheyo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://defjamblr.com/post/45123842720/jay-z-and-uestlove">defjamblr</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Jay-Z and ?uestlove. </p> </blockquote>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347206514http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347206514Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:40:39 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a2f328918fe02c0e4ec3f575b321b2f5/tumblr_mjdw780lZd1ruzozjo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347191784http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347191784Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:40:21 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/5057e958df3644651e184d3d89ad4615/tumblr_mj503rMgyD1r2lohvo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347138515http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347138515Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:39:08 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/70a0761484da3c8e371dfc39684c7a0b/tumblr_mjit3hZquJ1qe25w3o1_250.gif"/><br/><br/>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347124165http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347124165Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:38:49 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/5460e49b17da4fe064f10c478387dd6e/tumblr_mjj6tbsKOR1qcuv78o1_500.gif"/><br/><br/><p>That Supreme sweatshirt is the freshest</p>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347062857http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347062857Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:37:25 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/dbf73d202df9e7a959af14aa37cc14f9/tumblr_mixoewD5WX1qhzd1do1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347022594http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45347022594Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:36:30 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2kekjX7LA1rrvheyo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346852174http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346852174Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:32:30 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/4f07049466a14e41608d3399cc8343b4/tumblr_mjjekheSh91rx9tato1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://artcomesfirst.tumblr.com/post/45183649506"> </a></p>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346787892http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346787892Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:31:00 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/dedeb677e63bae5723f454f8de4f7706/tumblr_mjmk0tytEp1ruj0bpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346451471http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346451471Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:23:08 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/e6d17aabe0c5b839af594fa0a4c2c9b4/tumblr_mj0cgvwoP01rycqp8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346409360http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346409360Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:22:08 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/b143254fc6106420bb76be55a0e8e8c3/tumblr_mjniseci6q1s5kdi5o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>King Pusha</p>http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346394837http://the-ark.tumblr.com/post/45346394837Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:21:47 -0400<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/f40pG56zTqQ?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Sounds like something straight out of <em>My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy</em> by Kanye West… No doubt it is heavily influenced by Kanye West.
