Ten MUST Listen Songs for All New Logic Fans
The Rise of Logic
Logic took the hip hop world by storm in 2017 with his hit single 1-800-273-8255 off his newest album titled Everybody. He touches on a lot of serious subjects in this album that I think really connected with people. Most new Logic fans don’t realize he has been creating music for quite some time now with his first mixtape, ‘Young, Broke, & Infamous’, coming out in 2010. While Everybody was just his third studio album he has produced 6 mixtapes and countless other singles and appearances on other artists work like his part in ‘Sucker For Pain’ which features the likes of Lil’ Wayne and Ty Dolla $ign. Logic has been a huge inspiration for me which is why I wanted to share some of his best lesser-known work.
Top 10 Lesser Known Logic Tracks
Below are 10 Logic songs that I think all Logic fans should have in their rotation. If you are new to the world of Logic make sure to leave a comment and let me know if you enjoy some of his older stuff or if you like the “New” logic better. I personally like it all but prefer the older mixtapes. If you are a Logic veteran I would love to know what songs you think I left out.
