With the “MMG Tour” just weeks away, Wale drops off his new joint “Arrival” for your listening pleasure.
“Making moves with that main crew, to think I almost did trade school,” raps the MMG all-star on the soul-tinged number, produced by Ceezy of Da Rangerz.
Wale has been in the studio working on his third album for release at the top of next year.
Ca$h Out puts in work with Wale in the video for his second single “Hold Up,” produced by Beat Billionaire. The ATL rapper stacks his paper in the kitchen and drives his Benz around town, eventually meeting up with Wale in the club as scantily-clad women parade around them. His Epic Records debut Patience is slated for a December release.
It’s been a big year for Rick Ross and his Maybach Music Group. After topping the charts and launching the next generation of hip-hop stars, the Biggest Bawse will cap off 2012 by embarking on the first-ever “MMG Tour” with Wale and Meek Mill. Bad Boy’s Machine Gun Kelly will join the crew on the nationwide trek, which kicks off November 2 in Columbus, Ohio.
The 23 dates include stops in New Orleans, Houston, Nashville, and Cleveland, currently wrapping December 2 in San Diego, Calif.

In addition to Jay-Z, the first day of the “Made in America” festival featured plenty of other talent. Maybach Music Group’s Rick Ross, Wale, Meek Mill, Stalley, and Rockie Fresh touched down in Philly with a 45-minute performance.
D’Angelo took a break from his tour with Mary J. Blige to serve up a soulful set, while Roc Nation’s Jay Electronica performed his buzzworthy material. Plus, Covergirl’s newest spokeswoman Janelle Monáe thrilled the crowd with her infectious hits.
Meek Mill has sex on his mind in the provocative video for “Face Down” off his mixtape Dreamchasers 2. The Maybach Music MC holds a stack of cash while a girl works the pole, a shirtless Trigga spits lascivious rhymes while being pleasured by two women, and Wale spends some cash at the strip club. Once you get past all the eye candy, look for a cameo from Fabolous.
Cherish the last days of summer with Marcus Canty’s feel-good video for “In & Out.” The “X Factor” alum heads to Brooklyn for a block party, linking up with Maybach Music’s Wale. He gets down with some lovely ladies and busts a few moves in the Erik White-directed clip. Under the guidance of L.A. Reid, Marcus is prepping his Epic Records debut.
Meek Mill rolled through the DMV for his “Dreamchasers” tour last night and brought some friends with him. His Maybach Music Group labelmate and D.C. native Wale appeared on stage along with his “Club Paradise” tourmate Drake at the Fillmore in Silver Spring, Maryland. The crowd went wild when the three MCs performed “Amen” off Meek’s Dreamchasers 2 mixtape and upcoming debut Dreams & Nightmares, due October 30.
Entertainment Weekly named the album #7 on its list of 12 Must-Have Fall Albums. “It’s gonna be different beats, different lyrics, different topics,” the Philly rapper told the magazine. “I did Dreamchasers when I was in the hood. Now I’m on the road more—I understand life, seeing different things.”
If the original remix wasn’t big enough, Wale packs nine guests on the nearly nine-minute extended remix to “Bag of Money” featuring Rick Ross, Omarion, French Montana, Lil Wayne, Yo Gotti, Black Cobain, Trina, Tyga, and MMG’s newest signee Rockie Fresh.
