Only the Generals Gon Understand follows the release of Gates’ critically acclaimed mixtape LUCA BRASI 3 which includes the Gold certified track “Me Too” – listen to the mixtape now HERE. The new project also arrives after Gates released “Therapy Shit 4” and ““Right Game Wrong N****” earlier this year. Gates’ first mixtape since his release from prison made an explosive chart debut, entering the SoundScan/Billboard 200 at #4 with sales equivalents exceeding 78,000. LUCA BRASI 3 has drawn critical acclaim equal to its popular success, with HotNewHipHop declaring that “Kevin Gates remains one of the most fascinating personalities and talents.” “Gates doesn’t let his time away knock him off his stride,” wrote Pitchfork. “On ‘LUCA BRASI 3,’ Gates serves as a corrective to a rap landscape that favors absolutes. In his world, everything is always a little less clear-cut.” SPIN hailed the mixtape’s “Money Long” and “Great Man” as “quintessential Gates: melancholic trap songs punctuated by his partially crooned, highly emotive raps.” “(Gates’) everyman hustler persona, charm, and vulnerability are his most valuable assets,” declared Consequence of Sound. “He is clear by the close of ‘LUCA BRASI 3’ that nothing can stop him.”
