A month before the new album from super-hip-hopper
T.I. drops, one of the star-studded tracks has leaked all over the internet. It features
Jay-Z,
Kanye,
Lil' Wayne, and a sample of one of the fastest heat-seekers of the summer, the now-retired
M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes." Unfortunately, "Swagger Like Us" is just more proof that Hip-Hop is treading dangerously close to generic waters.
Stream below, but probably not for long; T.I. is getting a little upset about the situation, likening it to not waiting "till the cake comes out the kitchen before you eat it." This doesn't taste like cake...
We think it's time to retire the ol' autotune. And according to Jay, who provides a good point, the ol' skinny jeans.
Paper Trail is out 9/30.-

UPDATE: The stream has been removed from Hiphopdx.com. It seems T.I. is getting things done...
