Seth MacFarlane reference aside, Cleveland's Chip has released a damn fine mixtape. With the help of Mick Boogie and Terry Urban (both of whom have released some excellent mixtapes in 2009), Chip rolls through 27 tracks of confidence-filled entertainment. While 27 tracks is a lot (there are very few interludes), the real mystery is when will this guy release a legitimate debut? His close pal Kid Cudi has been under the hype microscope for well over a year (since "Day 'N Nite") and released his excellent debut earlier this year (one of the year's best, but not on first listen, it grows on you). You would think that Cudi would pull his buddy along for the ride (there is talk of a collaboration album). Or maybe the fame and touring with Lady Gaga has gone to his head. Regardless, this is a great mixtape with some truly great single-worthy songs ("Get Down" is ridiculous).
