As it’s been kicking around for a little more than a month, it’s a little late in the game to start talking about D.C. rapper Wale‘s 100 Miles & Running mixtape.

But it is pretty sick. Not to mention free via his MySpace page.

“W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E.” and “Ice Cream” are well on their way to being top CP summer jams—laying waste to the knock-kneed orchestral indie-rock and new-wave bar rock promos that have been drifting into the mail bin for the last two months. Even though I’m forced to play them back at the lowest possible volume so as not to offend neighboring cubicles—these songs still slam.
