Wale releases mixtape titled ‘Folarin’

US-Nigerian rapper Wale stayed true to his word by releasing his eighth mixtape 'Folarin' (which happens to be his surname) days before the new year.

The Maybach Music rapper worked closely with DJ Clark Kent on the 21 track tape which features label boss Rick Ross and a number of upcoming rappers.

2013 already looks like a good year for the 28-year-old with Ross moving the MMG label from Warner Bros to Atlantic Records. Wale will release his third album in the first quarter of 2013.
