DJ Young Mases’ The Takeover 3 received a mention on MTV’s Mixtape Mondays column.
This is The Takeover series’ third time on Mixtape Mondays. MTV has also recognized efforts by DJ Exclusive and DJ Babe in the recent past but considering their anti-hip hop roots, would they still be on board if hip hop’s bubble were to burst? Just sayin…
Here’s The Takeover 3’s first video for “I’m ready”, featuring Young Mase, K-deezy, Stretch Money and Tone Tone.
