51 (album)
''51'' is the second solo mixtape by rapper Kool A.D., formerly of the rap group Das Racist. The mixtape, released in April 2012, is a follow-up to Kool A.D.'s debut solo mixtape, '' The Palm Wine Drinkard,'' which was released in January 2012. Recording Unlike previous Das Racist efforts, Kool A.D. recorded ''51'' in Oakland, California, which resulted in a more confident sound according to many critics. A.D. recruited many Bay Area producers and rappers to assist him with the creation of the mixtape, though fellow New York-based Das Racist member Heems appears on one track. Content A variety of references are made throughout the lyrics of ''51.'' Kool A.D. disparagingly references the feud between Drake and Common by commenting, "Who cares?" on the track "La Pinata." Other references in the mixtape include boxer Manny Pacquiao, artist Damien Hirst, musician Al Green, and Lady Gaga's song "Poker Face." The tracks "Oooh" and "No" sample Marvin Gaye.
