Kevin Gates - Money Long & Great Man

MULTI-PLATINUM RAPPER KEVIN GATES UNVEILS FIRST TWO SONGS FROM HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED NEW MIXTAPE LUCA BRASI 3

GATES’ FIRST MIXTAPE SINCE PRISON RELEASE WILL OFFICIALLY ARRIVE SEPTEMBER 27TH

PREVIOUS MIXTAPES LUCA BRASI 2 AND BY ANY MEANS RECEIVE PLATINUM AND GOLD RIAA CERTIFICATIONS, RESPECTIVELY

The rollout of Kevin Gates’ highly-anticipated first mixtape since his release from prison earlier this year has officially begun. The controversial, multi-platinum rapper unveils two brand new tracks today – “Money Long” and “Great Man” – and announces the release date of Luca Brasi 3, arriving everywhere September 27th. Luca Brasi 3 is the third installment of Gates’ breakout mixtape The Luca Brasi Story, which first put the artist on the map in 2013.

The announcement comes on the heels of two massive milestones for Gates, an RIAA Platinum certification for Luca Brasi 2 and an RIAA Gold certification for By Any Means. Both mixtapes were released in 2014 and received widespread critical acclaim further cementing Gates presence in hip-hop as a undeniable star. The mixtape came prior to Gates’ debut album ISLAH, which received RIAA Platinum certification the same year it was released, 2016.

Gates has a number of live music appearances slated to celebrate the upcoming release of Luca Brasi 3. This Saturday, the Bread Winners’ Association MC will take the stage at Rolling Loud Festival, before hitting the road on the “LUCA BRASI 3 TOUR,” with dates kicking off October 2nd in Austin, TX and continuing through November 3rd in Wichita, KS (see full itinerary below).

The Bread Winners Association MC returned to music earlier this summer with CHAINED TO THE CITY, Gates first release after 15 months of incarceration. On the first week of release, two of the three tracks from “Chained To The City” made remarkable debuts on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. With “Change Lanes” and “Let It Sing” debuting at No. 68 and No. 82, respectively, Gates redeclared he is a major force to be reckoned with. Gates launched “Chained To The City” with a video by Chicago native Cole Bennett for “Change Lanes,” which garnered over 1 million views in the first day and has now climbed to nearly 34 million views since its release.

Most recently, Gates unveiled a new video for “Vouch,” where he took to the streets of Watts, Los Angeles, proving Gates is welcomed and shown love in any neighborhood. Directed by Julien Soulier, the video features Kevin in his most natural element, connecting with a community of characters including Compton native Demar Derozan, pro NBA player for the San Antonio Spurs.
