\"\"<\/a>RKZ has dropped the mixtape 21<\/em> to mark his 21st birthday! The mixtape was recorded sporadically between December 2010- May 2011. The project itself was confirmed in January, to which RKZ has been working with a close-knit group of musicians ensuring the project is expressed in the right way. Although the mixtape doesn\u2019t exactly have an apparent theme, RKZ wanted to show his musical journey and changes he\u2019s experiences since the beginning of the recording process. RKZ\u2019s personal favorites on the mixtape are \u201cFor a While, \u201cIndustry Girl,\u201d \u201cStranger,\u201d Swim Good,\u201d and \u201cGonna Be That.\u201d The latter was the demo for RKZ\u2019s next single, but he likes it so much, he included it as a prelude on 21<\/em>.<\/p>\n

RKZ felt 21<\/em> needed to be a mix between new and old; therefore, some of the songs may sound familiar.<\/p>\n
