Hailing from the crime infested streets of Lynn, Massachusetts, a.k.a., the "City of Sin",
Purpose would take the same dark environment that consumed those around him and use it as fuel to feed his real passion: hip-hop culture. Having already established his
Tragic Allies crew and earned widespread respect for his gritty production work, Purpose is now ready to prove that his mic skills are just as sharp as his beatmaking on his new mixtape, "
Better Than Your Album", a relentlessly quality project made from pure hip-hop concentrate.
"Better Than Your Album" is presented in conjunction with
One3 Music and
Diamond Music Group. East coast underground giant
Statik Selektah handles hosting duties with
DJ Slipwax of the Deck Demon providing cuts. Guest verses come from
Estee Nack and
Code Nine (of Tragic Allies),
Singapore Kane and
Ghetto Lion, and production comes from Purpose himself in addition to
Archimedes, Crucial the Giollotine, KOS, White Lotus and many more.
What's that? You spent thousands and thousands of dollars on your album? That sucks for you, Purpose's mixtape is better.
