KEVIN GATES is the future and the hardest rapper in years

Gates home.

I wonder if Rico met him outside the prison to jump into his arms and tell him "I waited for you"

Kevin Gates Releases Surprise EP "Chained To The City"

Well look who’s back! After teasing us with new music on social media the past few days, Kevin Gates decides to come through today and surprise fans with a new EP called Chained To The City, which serves as his first official release since getting out of jail back in January.

Laced with only 3 songs, the follow up to By Any Means 2 features three new songs, including “Change Lanes,” “Vouch,” and “Let It Sing,” all of which look to address his recent incarceration & current no-travel ban despite being a "free man." If you're unaware, Gates is stuck in Illinois at the moment due to a strict travel-ban, causing him not see his family & cancel a ton of shows in the process.

Been listening to this ep all damn day. Homie came correct on these three tracks. And if the snippets he’s posted these past few days are any indicator of where he’s at with rap right now, homie’s coming with it this year.

Bro smart as hell to get Cole Bennett to do the vid

Penitentiary rules in effect.

And this song was hard as ****. Slept on.

 

[sooperhooper]

Dang dude put on mad weight. I think it's his voice that sets him apart from the crowd to me. It's gritty but soulful. Like an old grandpa.

Cole and nas voice mad dry. Kendrick sounds mad regular. Gates just sounds real distinct.

He need to drop this

Me and my manager produced this. I remember when he posted it early in the a.m. my phone went crazy lol. I can't wait to hear the actual song. I sent this beat to him back in January, didn't think he would hop on it.
