    I know the usual perception is that artists make mixtapes for their real fans and usually sell out on albums for commercial purposes...
    but what artist(s) makes the biggest improvements from their mixtapes to their albums?

    IMHO, I'd say Future. I f--- with his mixtapes, but Pluto and Honest :whew::rejoice:

    I feel opposite about Future tbh. Rick Ross comes to mind.

    Oh s---, I forgot about Rozay.
    Future was just the first one to come to mind for me. I finally gave the Monster, Beast Mode, 56 Nights trio an honest listen this past week and they're solid...if Ape Sh!t is equally as hard, I could change my mind.
