Day Dreamer


Kid Ink's second mixtape "Daydreamer" really caught my attention. Songs like "Cali Dreamin", "It's on", and "Star of the show" really made him stand out to me more, and helped me really appreciate him as an artist. The mixtape had features like Sean Kingston, Tory Lanez, Meek Mill, Ray J, and plenty more. With the talented features, he also had successful producers like Jahlil Beats, Lex Luger, The Runners, and KE on the beat. These producers worked with artists like Kanye West, Jay z, Lil Wayne, and many more. It goes to show you don’t need a record label to work with the big names in hip hop.  This mixtape did a good job on showing Kid Ink’s consistency and individuality as an artist. If you like hip hop you will notice that Kid Ink sound is Los Angeles inspired at its finest, but to me I feel like he does more to the sound to make it more of his own. The song “I just want it all” really shows Kid Ink’s desire, and how bad he really wants to make it in the hip-hop world. Then you got songs like “Lowkey Poppin”, “It’s On”, and “Sick Em” which does a good job of pumping you up and makes me personally really want to go to the gym. The mixtape “Daydreamer” not only does it give different moods of music, but gives you a taste on what is more to come. This mixtape is my personal favorite because no matter how many times I listen to it, it never gets old. Kid Ink is an artist I can say that will never be looked down on. He has stars on his eyes, and his mind on the prize.
