Multi-platinum recording artist Shordie Shordie and Grammy-nominated producer Murda Beatz add on to their groundbreaking mixtape series with Memory Lane 2.
The anticipated project is the sequel to 2021’s collaborative effort, Memory Lane.
Memory Lane 2 follows previously released singles “Contacts” and “On You.” Laced with searing production from Murda, the 15-track effort ventures into familiar territory as Shordie teeters towards the edge. All of the unavoidable truths and toxic behaviors he’s tried to keep under wraps over the years come together with a lyrical finesse that flows like silk.
Shordie finds fulfillment in weaving these disparate influences together to map out his feelings and make sense of it all. The opening track, “A Lot Of Miles” kicks off the Baltimore rapper’s sonic voyage. Then, there’s the explosive “Ride With Shordie Pt. 2,” effortlessly building on the momentum of the original track with the same gritty lyricism. From there, several standout performances follow, such as the Mozzy-assited “Enjoy The Ride” and the mixtape’s outro track “Bigger In Texas,” which fittingly ends on a chopped and screwed note.
Memory Lane 2, out now, expands on Shordie and Murda’s prolific run in hip-hop. This collaboration is destined to be embraced by fans across the spectrum and is proof positive that they have an undeniable chemistry.
