We all got The Invitation two weeks ago, now it's time for Donnis' latest mixtape/ street album, Fashionably Late.

  Favorite Track Off The Tape?

Donnis - "Country Cool" (Featuring Yelawolf & Pill) Download "Country Cool" Remix.

Donnis teamed up with fellow emerging artists Pill and Yelawolf, for the remix to Diary of an Atlanta Brave's "Country Cool."  All three emcees put forth great verses, but Pill stole the show by speeding up his flow over the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League-produced cut.

Check out our review of the whole project here.
Yesterday, XXL Magazine and DJ Whoo Kid gave us a handful of new tracks from some of the best new artists in the game with their 10 Freshmen for '10 mixtape.

The tape helps to defend the new class of emcees against bitter fans and critics who argue that a different group of ten are more deserving. It also serves as a quick glimpse into each artists' style.

Regardless of whether or not these are the best freshmen emcees in the game, I applaud XXL Magazine for continuing to create a great deal of buzz around ten hard working artists each year.
