Mike Will Made-It. Gucci Mane found him (like all good things coming out of ATL), and the EarDrummers boss has since produced global smashes for the likes of Beyonce, Future, Rick Ross, Miley Cyrus, Juicy J, Rihanna, 2 Chainz, Rae Sremmurd, & Nicki Minaj. Now that’s a RESUME, and Mike Will certainly flexes his super-producer rolodex on his official debut full-length, Ransom 2. Just peep the guest list: From Guap and other aforementioned artists to Kendrick Lamar, 21 Savage, Migos, Lil Yachty, Chief Keef, and Lil Wayne, the 17-tracker is a gathering of hip-hop/r&b illuminati. The beats bang hard in typical Mike Will Made-It fashion, and although not all tracks are going to be as popular as “Black Beatles,” “Humble,” “Formation,” and/or “Bugatti,” there are plenty of turn-up situations on the album, as well as some toned-down trap ballad moments. Highlights include “Gucci On My Feet,” “Nothing Is Promised,” and “Perfect Pint.”
