Streaming killed mixtapes. These artists are actually still making them. They just upload them to streaming and call them "albums".

I'd consider "voice of the heroes" to be a mixtape.

Drake does not need a mixtape in fact he needs to shut the f*** up and stop putting out music. The issue with him “dropping the same music” is because since Scorpion the man has gone on a tear dropping iconic features one after another & memorable songs that by the time his major album came out it’s - “that’s it?” when he’s been feeding us for the past 3 years.

If he was dropping mid for 3 years and dropped CLB, this site would be drooling.

I know. It's blurry these days.

I remember 50 Cent dropped AA as an album then he called it a mixtape when it flopped.

I think Drake did the same thing with More Life. He called it a playlist when it got overshadowed by DAMN.

I think it all depends on the purpose for the project. Mixtapes are usually used to build up hype for the album. The album is the final product while the mixtapes are musical promo essentially.
