Lil Wayne Is Resurrecting His ‘No Ceilings’ Series With A New Mixtape This Week

The No Ceilings mixtapes are some of the most beloved musical events of Lil Wayne’s career. He’s dropped two volumes so far, in 2009 and 2015, and he decided to spend part of Thanksgiving dropping some big news: No Ceilings 3 is on the way, and it’s coming tomorrow (November 27). This comes after he announced the project, but not a release date, back in August.
Wayne told Complex of the project, “The mixtape game seemed to be a dying art and since I’m one of the pioneers of the craft, and it played such a big part in my career, I felt it was only right to resurrect it. Also, it’s a lot of songs out here I wanted to kill my way!”
This summer, Wayne showed some love to No Ceilings 2 by dropping a modified version of it on streaming services for the first time. It was significantly pared down from the original edition as it appeared on sites like DatPiff, though, as 21 tracks were pared down to just 12, decreasing the album length from 72 minutes to 45.
It’s not all good news for Wayne right now, though. It was revealed recently that he is currently facing up to 10 years in jail time over firearm possession charges. He also faced some backlash recently after showing support for Donald Trump in his re-election campaign.

Smartzee rises strong with new single “Back Down”

Smartzee’s latest single, “Back Down,” is a chest-thumping statement of survival wrapped in powerful emotion and a cutting perspective. “Back Down” grabs you with energy that might have been, you are left with the feeling, forged in fire. The production is aggressive from the get-go, leaving no doubt that this is not a song that will tiptoe around emotions.
Smartzee is a throwback to the mentality of a part beaten-down kid from the hard-knock existence of growing up in a challenging backdrop, part sharp-suited financier fighting his way through the business labyrinth. His comparisons between his life and an athlete looking down the barrel of the final buzzer are startling, beautiful, and achingly true.
There’s a bracing, upfrontness about the way Smartzee recounts his story. This is about survival. His lyrics reach into the fragile but relentless inner monologue that compels us to keep going when everything else tells us to stop. The voice in your head gets up, dusts itself off, and challenges life to take another swing. And that voice reminds one so much of Smartzee on this track. The delivery is raw, spare, and powerful, and it never falls into melodrama. Every bar feels lived-in, and every metaphor is earned. This is a confident, chest-out statement of intent to keep climbing, however steep the mountain.
“Back Down” is one of those songs you put on when you have a big decision to make, are having a tough day, or are going on a long night of chasing dreams. It’s a personal confession and a universal anthem for anyone who’s ever felt underestimated. On “Back Down,” Smartzee encourages us to lace up, buckle up, and walk down that same path with him.
