It's looking like a Maybach Music summer. Today was a busy day for the camp with Rick Ross announcing that a third installment of their Self-Made album series is on its way and Wale also dropped his Rihanna-assisted remix of his single “Bad.” To keep the energy going, Wale releases the empowering new record, "Poor Decisions," featuring Rick Ross and Lupe Fiasco. On the track, all three emcees paint vivid pictures of the poor decisions people make in urban societies, letting people know to do better.
"Poor Decisions" will appear on Self Made, Vol 3, scheduled for release August 6, 2013 with appearances from Wale, Meek Mill, Omarion, Rockie Fresh, Stalley, Lupe Fiasco, Rick Ross, more.
“Wale’s ‘Poor Decisions’ featuring Rick Ross and Lupe Fiasco is a compelling narrative-driven track that delves into the consequences of life’s choices. Set against a haunting backdrop of melancholic piano chords and soulful vocal samples, the song opens with Wale’s introspective verses, where he reflects on the struggles and mistakes that have shaped his journey. His poignant lyricism is accompanied by a sense of vulnerability, drawing listeners into his personal narrative.
As the track unfolds, Rick Ross delivers his trademark authoritative flow, adding a layer of gravitas to the song’s message. His verses exude confidence and wisdom, offering insights into the harsh realities of street life and the importance of resilience in the face of adversity. Lupe Fiasco’s guest appearance further elevates the song, as he delivers thought-provoking bars that explore themes of ambition, success, and the pursuit of redemption.
Together, Wale, Rick Ross, and Lupe Fiasco deliver a powerful meditation on the human experience, urging listeners to reflect on their own choices and the impact they have on their lives. ‘Poor Decisions’ is more than just a song—it’s a poignant reminder of the importance of self-awareness and the courage to confront one’s shortcomings.”
