The release, titled The Soul Tape, is according to statements Fabolous made to XXL back in January, intended to be an amalgamation of Soul and Hip Hop. The Brooklyn rapper said, “I’m doing it over all old soul sampled beats, so I wanted to keep the world ‘soul’ within the title…. Its kinda one of those tapes that I want people to just sit through and listen and really hear the lyrics.”
