Playaz Only Live Once [CD]

2 Chainz teams up with Statik Selektah for Playaz Only Live Once, a full-length collaboration produced entirely by the Boston beatmaker. The Atlanta trap star behind Based on a T.R.U. Story and Pretty Girls Like Trap Music trades glossy club production for Statik's crate-dug loops and dusty soul samples, landing somewhere between East Coast boom-bap and Southern rap swagger.

It's a looser, more reflective 2 Chainz: "A Week in Paris" is all designer-label storytelling over warm, soulful textures, while "Pops" turns inward to grief and the lessons of his late father. This is the standard CD edition of the album.
