Ali Vegas comes out of the dark with a new track produced by Rico & Pres. Dopest Vegas track I've heard in a while.

Ali Vegas is releasing his mixtape AMERICA'S PRINCE as a leadup to his new upcoming album Generation Gap 2: The Prequel, which should be out this May. It will feature production by DJ Premier, Scott Storch, and others, and features by Akon, Styles P and more. It's kind of hard to believe the kid is only 25, but it's true. We had him in for a SDSU interview and freestyle. Interview coming tomorrow. Freestyle below.

'That's Where I'm From' by Ali Vegas featuring Beezo sounds like it would've totally been one of those tracks I'd put on both sides of a mixtape 14 years ago. In a good way. I'm off to eat some pink cookies in a plastic bag getting crushed by buildings.

Ali Vegas, somewhat of a veteran at the early age of 25, is going to finally take a stab at it. His self-titled record will be out February 2008. Until then check out 'By Your Side', one of my favorite songs of last year.
