In a post sighted on social media, Ibrah claims Wale’s baby mama and former girlfriend Diamond Michelle Gbagonah has slept with almost all the artiste’s godfathers and close friends. Names like Just Blaze, Lee Majors, Cardiak, and No Credit supply the beats for this more mature/still flashy release, all of it adding up to Wale's win number three. Ibrah One has popped up to toss another wild, unsubstantiated allegation in the air hovering around familiar antagonist Shattta Wale. As beefy as it gets, 'Rotation' is still the puff-puff-pass weed anthem stoners wish for, with 'Bad' (featuring Rihanna), 'Tired of Dreaming' (featuring Ne-Yo and Rick Ross), and 'Clappers' (featuring Nicki Minaj and Juicy J) coming off as great bangers that don't squander their superstar guests. 'Simple Man' is self-reflection with a head-nodding beat and some witty borrowing from 2Pac then there's the great and quite big 'Golden Salvation (Jesus Piece),' which juxtaposes lyrics about the Gospel and bling for a layered and interesting swagger fest. 'LoveHate Thing' is a breezy summertime jam reminiscing with plenty of gun talk and reckless stories of youth, but the complicated Wale can look to his dangerous past with much love and much gratitude that he made it through those days alive. Besides being solidly built and not overstuffed at 16 tracks long, The Gifted is the fascinating sound of the life of the party growing up, and that's as in 'in the process,' because there are still plenty of club bangers, strip-club jams, and irresponsible moments, and all of them are welcome.

While his first two efforts were smart, clever, funny, and infectious, rapper Wale was never one known to offer rich insight, but on the opening number of the aptly titled The Gifted, he spits 'The status got me trippin'/I like my bitch but I like these bitches on my dick be spittin'/Tell that you feelin' different, knowin' you the bread winner,' and suddenly the hook of this great album reveals itself. As beefy as it gets, 'Rotation' is still the puff-puff-pass weed anthem stoners wish for, with 'Bad' (featuring Rihanna ), 'Tired of Dreaming' (featuring Ne-Yo and Rick Ross ), and 'Clappers' (featuring Nicki Minaj and Juicy J) coming off as great bangers that dont squander their superstar guests. News Added Indulge Wale for a moment as he has a poetry moment to announce his new album, The Gifted, which will hit stores on June 25.
