Yelawolf Love Story on 2LP
Love Story is the highly anticipated second album from multi-talented musician Yelawolf (born Michael Wayne Atha) and the direct follow-up to his two 2013 mixtapes: Black Fall and Trunk Muzik Returns. The album, with Eminem as executive producer, was recorded over two years largely at Nashville’s legendary Blackbird Studios with additional producers Malay and WLPWR.
The Alabama-born rapper has described Love Story as being much more passionate than his debut, 2011’s Radioactive, and the 18-track 2LP-set serves as a revealing collection of the artist’s myriad musical influences. “I’m telling the truth about a lot of things,” Yelawolf adds. “I try to be as honest as I can with everything I do.”
Yelawolf previously released three tracks off Love Story, including “Box Chevy V,” which he premiered in early 2014 on Sirius XM’s Shade 45 station; “Honey Brown”; and “Down,” which also appeared on 2014’s Shady XV album. The acoustic guitar-anchored “Till It’s Gone,” a track Yelawolf has described as “a very dark record,” premiered last September on the acclaimed FX drama Sons of Anarchy. Speaking to the creation of “Till It’s Gone,” the rapper’s said: “I looped the acoustic guitar up after we had figured out the line, took it to my car and wrote it in a couple of hours.”
