Listen To ‘THE 5 YEAR PLAN’, A New Song From A-Reece’s Upcoming Project ‘Today’s Tragedy, Tomorrow’s Memory: The Mixtape’
A-Reece shares 'THE 5 YEAR PLAN' from upcoming project 'Today's Tragedy, Tomorrow's Memory: The Mixtape'.
A-Reece and fellow 1000 Degreez and Rubber Band Gang member Wordz reconnect on "THE 5 YEAR PLAN". Their interpretation of the open-ended flamenco string-laden instrumental is a catchy hook ("I'm 'bout to break the bank"), lofty bars ("She saw my drip, she thought I was filling the tank", Wordz raps) and high energy (Reece's adlibs are a whole mood).
"THE 5 YEAR PLAN" adds to a growing series of collaborations between A-Reece and Wordz. Both rappers come from 1000 Degreez, a supergroup from Pretoria that was active in the mid-2010s and played the role of launching the careers of both rappers and their acolytes.
<p><br></p><p>A-Reece, who's the most visible of the crew's members, is releasing a new project in March. From the title, it's safe to say the "mixtape" isn't the highly anticipated follow-up to his last album <em>From Me To You and Only You</em> (2017).<br></p><p><em>Today's Tragedy, Tomorrow's Memory: The Mixtape</em> is heavy on guest features. Out of its 13 songs, only five songs are free of guests. Appearing on the rest of the album are the likes of <strong>Jay Jody</strong>, <strong>Ayanda Jiya</strong>, <strong>Stogie T</strong> and <strong>BELO SALO</strong>.</p><h4>Read: <a href="https://www.okayafrica.com/the-mysterious-road-to-a-reeces-paradise-ii-op-ed/" target="_blank">The Mysterious Road to A-Reece's 'Paradise II'</a></h4><p>The song "RESIDUAL SELF-IMAGE", which was released in August last year as "<a href="https://www.okayafrica.com/a-reece-new-single-residual-self-image-featuring-ayanda-jiya/" target="_self">Re$idual $Elf Image</a>", made the project while a majority of his songs released in the last two years aren't on the project—songs such the "<a href="https://www.okayafrica.com/a-reece-selfish-audio-listen/" target="_self">EXP</a>" series and the recently released "<a href="https://www.okayafrica.com/a-reece-strictly-4-my-b-tch-listen/" target="_self">STRICTLY 4 MY B*TCH</a>".</p><p><em>Today's Tragedy, Tomorrow's Memory: The Mixtape</em> is out on March 26.</p><p>Stream "<a href="https://music.apple.com/za/album/the-5-year-plan-feat-wordz/1548945683?i=1548945686" target="_blank">THE 5 YEAR PLAN</a>" by A-Reece and Wordz on <a href="https://music.apple.com/za/album/the-5-year-plan-feat-wordz/1548945683?i=1548945686" target="_blank">Apple Music</a> and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/4fNGCGYkLvh6zX1bKxs79h?si=EjAFproyQyuc7OuhWPQH_g" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/1sNPyElQ3dJQ7rYTkTQz1S?si=CmE9iHUtSpuONCzOqrdF0g" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">pre-save</a>/<a href="https://music.apple.com/za/album/the-5-year-plan-feat-wordz/1548945683?i=1548945686" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">pre-add</a> <em>Today's Tragedy, Tomorrow's Memory: The Mixtape</em>.</p><p><div class="dfp_atf-slot" data-not-loaded="true"></div><script type="text/javascript">
