Mo3 was on the brink of becoming one of music’s brightest stars before his untimely demise late last year. Since the release of his mixtape Shottaz back in 2014, the Dallas rapper was on a steady rise to stardom and building his legacy, brick by brick. With his family and his team orchestrating the rollout of his new album, Shottaz 4eva, it is certain that they made sure he and his hometown was represented to the tee. By building a name for himself with this fourth installment in his Shottaz series, we have already had the pleasure of tapping into his LP Shottaz 4eva earlier this year. Today (Aug 27), MO3’s team drops off the deluxe version of the album.

Equally capable of crooning a heartfelt trap ballad and spitting a thorough 16, few artists had natural gifts on the level of the late MO3. The Dallas native left the world with plenty of music in the vault and it is somewhat a relief that it is all coming to the forefront piece by piece for the fans. Shottaz 4Eva deluxe is certainly a full showcase of the singing, songwriting, and rapping ability that set MO3 apart as a vital street rap voice in Texas and beyond. For the album’s original announcement, MO3’s family and team sent a heartfelt thank you to the fans in a statement on his Instagram account:

“We miss his warm and fiercely loyal presence every day — He appreciated his fans more than anything and your love has sustained us through a dark time and helped keep his memory alive. Music was the light and passion of MO’s life — it provided a way for him to express his innermost self and a path for providing a better life for himself and his family — He dedicated his life to his craft, and by playing his music, you’re keeping his legacy alive. On behalf of MO3, we offer you sincere thanks.”
