This sweet little mixtape comes from a cat who doesn't know whether or not to rep the unknown (yet hometown) city of Grand Rapids, Michigan or the southern hip hop hotspot that is Atlanta. So he teeters between both. Willie the Kid possesses an easy going flow that immediately will bring about comparisons of Lupe Fiasco (and that is not a bad thing). While most of his flow focuses on the "blue collar" approach with little swagger rap, it is still a great display of the skills that Willie totes along with him on the scene. This is a true mixtape in the sense that there are few "real" songs but more of just a lyrical offering of a promising young emcee. Worth checking out for the sole reason to better prepare the listener for things when he really gets things together.
