Donny Womack Tracklist
Donny Womack is Don Toliver’s debut mixtape. The title derives from the name of R&B singer Bobby Womack.
The mixtape was dropped a day before the release of Travis Scott’s highly anticipated ASTROWORLD. Toliver’s feature on Scott’s song “CAN’T SAY” (which appeared on the album) earned him high praise and a cosign from Scott on Twitter.
“Donny Womack” Q&A
-
Why did Don Toliver name his album after Bobby Womack?
During an interview with Billboard, Toliver said this:
Bobby Womack is just my favorite because as a youngin’ my parents always listened to him. I couldn’t understand it the way I wanted to understand it until I got older. Bobby Womack is a genius. He’s like a mad scientist – he goes crazy. So to understand that shit and how hip he was to what’s really going on out here, it’s special.
-
Is there a concept behind the mixtape?
During an interview with Billboard, Don had this to say:
“Donny Womack” is a spin off Bobby Womack. The one who did it, came and conquered. So I’m Donny Womack. It’s a lot of soul, a lot of vibe and a lot of energy. It’s beautiful. That’s where I’m coming from with that.
-
How long did it take to make the mixtape?
“Donny Womack” has been in the works as early as six, seven months ago. Probably longer than that. But you know, I just kept working on it. Basically, I was working trying to get everything out. That was my main focus, but I’ve been working on it. I had music ready, but I just kept working trying to critique it and get it right.
