Much of the massive success of the 2015 Broadway musical “Hamilton” can be credited to the original project entitled “The Hamilton Mixtape” which director Lin-Manuel Miranda began working on in 2009. Skip ahead 7 years and The Hamilton Mixtape finally saw its commercial release and debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart, becoming the most successful compilation in more than 4 years. PULSE client Dave East teamed up with Miranda, rapper Nas, and vocalist Aloe Blacc on track #3 “Wrote My Way Out” which Slate.com directly paralleled with Miranda’s “realization of the Hamilton story – that a self-made man who used his way with words to rise up from obscurity – sounded an awful lot like a classic hip-hop narrative.”
