SPATE magazine got a chance to talk with Lil Wyte, Three 6 Mafia artist who appeared on MTV special "Hollyhood". LiL Wyte is really excited about the new album about to drop on Asylum. The album is called "The One And Only". LiL Wyte said that what he is feeling right now is surreal. "Working with grammy winners Three 6 Mafia is a dream come true". He also says he recorded the album in Three 6 Mafia 4 million dollar mansion. The album is incredible. The music has a great combination of style and southern rhythms. This album will garner much public attention. LiL Wyte is not new to the hip-hop world, this is actually his third album. He also has two previous chopped and screwed albums by DJ Black. This is another banger and with the publicity he is getting for this album it should be a number one seller on billboard.
