Rapper Big Pooh - When I'm Done (Prod. Black Milk)
Many of you know that Black Milk did an instrumental project a while back called, The Music From The Color Purple. Now a lot of MC's went ahead and spit some fire over those tracks, and it looks like it's time for Big Pooh to do his thing. 1/2 of Little Brother brings to you, The Purple Tape. I feel this project should have another name, because honestly the title is a bit played out by now. In my eyes there is only one Purple Tape. Either way, I'm real excited to hear some Pooh over these Black Milk joints. Rapper Big Pooh drops TPT 1/12/10
