FADER PREMIERE
Rico Love, the songwriter, singer and rapper who explained the luxurious life of a behind-the-scenes hitmaker to FADER earlier this year, will release a birthday-celebrating free mixtape of rap remixes, El Presidente, on December 9th. "I started off rapping and I wanted to make a mixtape that showed my abilities as an emcee. Didn't want it to be over thought, but just a collection of verses that showcased my personality. I wanna talk my big money shit," he wrote in an email. Following his remix of Ty Dolla $ign's "Paranoid," here's his spin on A$AP Ferg's "Shabba." Says Rico: "I felt like I could really talk my shit on this beat!"
