Stream A Mother's Day Mixtape From Southern Hospitality
Mother's Day is almost upon us and Mixtape specialists Southern Hospitality--has done us all the convenience of assembling some iconic songs about mothers to bump as Sunday approaches, because, after all, what's a better present than beats? The mixtape-- a deft balance between rap and soul-- begins with arguably the mother's day song: Tupac's "Dear Mama." The L.A. native's timeless song sets the appropriate tone for the rest of the playlist: appreciative and pensive.
Southern Hospitality's selections are remarkably even-handed, showing no preference for a specific style or region. Our selections range from classic West Coast tracks like Snoop Dogg's "I Love My Mama" to East Coast jams like Jay-Z's "Momma Loves Me." Kanye West's "Hey Mama"-- both the original recording as well as the hauntingly beautiful Grammy remix-- is included to great affect rounding out some of the playlist's harder, more biting beats like those provided by Lil Boosie and Master P.
Southern Hospitality has done you all a massive a favor. It knows how busy you've been lately and it's done you the solid of already picking up a Mother's Day gift. Sure, you're "really going to pick her up a present, tomorrow. Ferreal this time." But the worst case scenario is that she gets a thoughtful collection of verses about that most special of special ladies in all our lives.
