Right in time for the weekend, Wale and Rick Ross got together to release a track late last night.  “Tats On My Arm” pits the two MMG emcees over a mellow beat with a dope hook to match.  With his next project,the Ambition LP, which is due out November 1st, Wale hopes to capitalize on a growing fanbase.  Remember when The Eleven One Eleven Theory crashed Hulkshare?  Anywho, this track is another banger from the MMG family.  Rozay and Wale complement one another real well in general, but this track is on another level.  I hate to harp, but that Rozay hook is enough to tide me over until 11/1/11.  Check out the joint below.

“I’m just trying to focus cuz the loudest nigga in the room is usually the brokest.”

Add crashing Hulkshare to Maybach Music Group’s résumé.  Still hard at work on his MMG debut album, Ambition, Wale made noise last week when he dropped a new mixtape in honor of reaching 1 million Twitter followers.  The mixtape, The Eleven One Eleven Theory, received over 100,000 downloads in the first hours following release.  The traffic generated by such voracious downloading overloaded the server and caused a temporary crash.  “This is actually the first time…It’s certainly an exciting milestone, but not a pleasurable one,” Hulkshare CEO Ted Brinkofski said.  Wale is on tour through the end of August, but if anything this excitement is a sign of things to come.  The DC-spitta hopes to drop Ambition in November, but if people went this crazy over a mixtape I’d hate to think what the fall rush is going to look like.
