clappers

The industry says this could be the biggest banger since “Bands”.

Wale‘s album will be out in exactly two weeks, and The Gifted (MMG/Atlantic) is already shaping up to be one of the best albums of the year, according to a large majority of those that have heard the LP. With the two lead singles from the album (“Bad” & “LoveHate Thing”) already heating up the charts, the 2 Chainz & Wiz Khalifa-assisted “Rotation” helping build anticipation, and “Bad” getting a very sexy Rihanna upgrade, Wale is looking to have his best commercial performance yet with his third effort. “Clappers”, featuring turn-up specialists Juicy J & Nicki Minaj, is getting a video as we speak, and the song will be out any day now. This may very well be one of summer 2013′s earliest treats. So yes, get ready.
