Happy New Years Eve! One of the best parts of the end of the year is always the rap up courtesy of Skillz. He skipped last year and only did a sports recap, but this year he is back with “2014 Rap Up”. If you have forgotten any of the highlights from 2014, this track will definitely refresh your memory. Over quality production courtesy of BINK!, he talks about everything from Lupita Nyong’o winning an Oscar, Donald Sterling, P.O.P Hold it Down, the saga of Chris Brown and Karrueche, the ALS ice bucket challenge, Kim and Kanye, Mimi and Niko’s shower rod sex tape, the epic fail known as the Aaliyah movie and so much more. The track serves as the last song on Skillz latest collaboration album with BINK!, Made in Virginia which is available on iTunes now.
