Today is August 3, 2010. There were new album/mixtape releases by three prominent members of the Hip Hop community. Originally, the only album set for release on August 3 was Houston rapper, Bun B’s 3rd solo album “Trill O.G.” After several weeks of anticipation and skepticism, the other two artists confirmed that they would release mixtapes on August 3 as well. Washington D.C. rapper, Wale had been “missing in action” on his Twitter page for several weeks Tweeting random things here and there. Many of his fans suspected he was up to something. After weeks skepticism, Wale confirmed on Twitter that he had been working on a new mixtape. His new mixtape was listed as the sequel to his 2008 mixtape “The Mixtape About Nothing” and would be entitled “More About Nothing.” The same situation happened with West Coast rapper The Game. He actually started Tweeting under a new Twitter account. His original user name was @iHateGame but his new account is simply @TheGame. As a result some of the fans missed some of his Tweets. So after an account switch and another hidden agenda, The Game was doing the exact same thing. He was secretly brewing a mixtape for his fans in anticipation for his major album release, “The R.E.D. Album” on August 24, 2010. His new mixtape would be entitled “Brake Lights” and was scheduled to be released on August 3 as well. After the 3 projects were officially placed on the same day, Tuesday August 3, 2010 was dubbed “Takeova Tuesday” by numerous fans on Twitter. This was a great day in the world of Hip Hop! All Hip Hop Heads rejoice! 3 New Albums/Mixtapes released on the same day. I think days like this should happen more often in Hip Hop! Artists should come together more often and release great music on the same day. Hip Hop Heads love the idea of Takeova Tuesdays!
