Mixtape

A normally shitty couple of songs given to you by your aspiring rapper friend who thinks he's gonna "make it" in the music industry. They claim it is "fire" but it's probably a bunch of garbage. The number of mixtapes circling the internet now has in fact gotten so large that the government has had to set up multiple fires around the country to burn their friends' shitty mixtapes.

Friend: Yo check out my mixtape mang I'm spittin some real hot fire
You: I'd rather die

mixtape

A homemade music compilation (usually on cassette or CD-R) that contains all your favourite tracks. Often you give such a compilation to the guy or gal of your fancy in hopes that it will help you win their heart.

mixtape

An "underground" CD that has instrumentals already used by some artists, so the MC in the mixtape raps over these beats to show that they can rap better than the original artists. In these mixtapes there´s also annoying DJs yelling all over the tracks. It´s excellent for upcoming MCs that need to be heard, and for mainstream artists to "keep it gangsta".

Omar Cruz just got signed to Interscope because of his mixtapes.
