Baton Rouge's rookie of 2013, Kevin Gates, returns with his first single since last October's album/mixtape Stranger Than Fiction. Gates is a master of world-weary (though still thick-skinned) sensitivity, but here, instead of his battle-scarred meditations, he's taken a cue from Future's more boisterous cuts; he sounds hardened, and the beat wouldn't be out of place on Future's Astronaut Status tape. "Don't Know" will be available on iTunes next week.
