Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Lil Wayne names 56 Nights by Future the GOAT mixtape.
Future elaborated on Twitter, announcing that he’s been in the studio with the up-and-comng Chicago rapper and that they have “enough heat to drop a tape this week.” He also shared that the duo might let a fan make the album artwork and pick the tracklist. On Monday, Future and Juice dropped “Fine China,” one of the titles featured on the pictured whiteboard.
“My favorite mixtape would probably be, it’s a couple of them, it would be [The Dedication], that’s one of them,” 2 Chainz said while appearing alongside Weezy on Complex’s GOAT Talk. “DJ Drama though? Trap or Die Jeezy in there, and mine T.R.U. Realigion. So it would be them three. I don’t have one answer for that.”
Lil Wayne, on the other hand, picked Future and DJ Esco’s 56 Nights as his GOAT mixtape.
The tweet made the rounds earlier this month and listed 50 Cent, Future, Lil Wayne, and Jeezy as the rappers deserving of a slot on the list. The selections opened the floodgates as people gave their own mixtape Mount Rushmore lists that included rappers such as Fabolous, Curren$y, Joe Budden, Dipset, Lloyd Banks, and more.
One person that people felt was deserving of a spot on the list was Gucci Mane, who actually spoke on the topic during a conversation with the Rap Radar Podcast. According to Gucci, he should’ve been a first-ballot entry on the list.
In an interview on Hot 107.9, Juice described how Future influenced him as a child. “I ran into some percocets my freshman year,” Juice said. “Niggas was calling me and my homie…Two years later, three years later Future drop 56 Nights. By the way, Future is the GOAT. Future dropped 56 Nights. Niggas is hitting my phone like, where you get all them percs from, them xans.’ Hearing that music at such a young age, nigga I was trying to sip lean in sixth grade listening to Dirty Sprite, one and true story,” he continued. “So it’s like, it’s the people that doing that shit ’cause they like getting high and they going through stuff and they like addicted. And then it’s the people who do it for trends and for the people that’s really in the shit, it’s not as easy as seeing somebody die.”
