DreamChasers 2


DreamChasers two is the second mix tape by Meek Mill, that came out with a huge bang. The first mix tape called DreamChasers was a huge success for Meek Mill with over 700, 000 downloads on Datpiff. com. This lead up to the big release of the second album, for weeks many fans of this artist waited for the release of the mix tape on May 7, 2012. Some of its success can also be contributed because of the advertisement and talk about a new Dreamchasers album coming out in the future. This all lead to its success and had work the Meek but into the album. This mix tape got over a total of 2,700,000 down loads which is the most downloaded mix tape on datpiff.com. However it also caused the site to crashes from to many people trying to download it at once. 

A day before the release of the mix tape, two songs from the album were released  early adding to the suspense of the mix tape. Both songs i thought were very well produced and cause a lot of chatter of how good would this mix tape really be. Some though that it wasn't going to be as good as the first, but i though it would be better, and to my surprise i was right. In my eyes this was Meek Mills really first big mix tape that is going to get him more download, and or more money in the future. Besides the song "Ima Boss", by him, he has not got much respect in the music industries, but i think this will be his big start. Moving on from here Meek Mill is moved up on my artist list and is now compared to artist like Rick Ross and Tyga. This album has earned him the respect of many new fans and made him very popular in the modern music world. 

This song is just filled with very good song that are very underrated. Many of these songs are filled with song that tell the stories of Meek Mills life coming form the getto and how he had dreams of be rich and famous one day, hence the name DreamChasers. My favorite song out of this album has to be the song "ready or not", for it tells how you are either are ready or not for success and some will make it to fame and others for not. this really reaches out to me in the sense that coming up through high school you make choices that can impact the rest of your life and you have to be ready for that. As you walk through that halls you see those kids that were not ready for that pressure and feel into the drugs to help relieve that day to day stress. Other songs like "racked up shawty" and " a1 everything" are very good songs that contain amazing beat that are backed up by rhymes that will blow your mind. If you listen to the lyrics of the song "str8 like that", you will find that Meek mill put some humor in his lyrics which makes it an enjoyment to listen too. overall this mix tape is one of the greatest i have ever listen to and highly recommend downloading it.

  1. As usual, your commentary about hip-hop is good. You put thought into the message behind the songs, and you recognize the audience that is going to connect with the music and lyrics.

    However, you're still not taking my advice about the presentation of your insights. When you don't take care in the presentation of your thoughts, no matter how insightful they are, you will always be sold short. If you can't take the care to capitalize "i" before you post an assignment, your audience is not going to give you as much credit as someone who puts more care into the same expression. You want to look professional, or at least as professional as possible. Go back and read this to yourself out loud--read the actual words, not the words you THINK you wrote--and you'll see I'm right. You're a bright kid, but you'll never get full credit for your insight and intelligence if you keep presenting information in such haphazard way. Oh--and it's also not good for your grade. Start making the changes I've suggested, or your grade on this blogging assignment will begin to decrease. I expect you to LEARN from your mistakes and TRY HARDER. Otherwise, I'm just making the same criticisms week after week, and you don't progress! You have potential...
