Michigan rapper NF returns today with the release of his new mixtape, CLOUDS. The 11-track project boasts features from Hopsin and Tech N9ne, and includes recent singles like “PAID MY DUES,” “LOST,” and the title track.
“I kept going back and forth. It was just really confusing on is this a record I’m working on? Am I working on an EP? Am I working on something more like a mixtape? Is it longer than the EP? Is it weird?“ he told Zane Lowe about the mixtape’s creation. "So it wasn’t until later in the year last year where I was like, ‘All right, well, this doesn’t seem to be going away.’ I’m like, ‘I don’t want to release a full length right now,’ so that’s why I ended up [putting out a mixtape].”
