Multi-platinum recording artist Kevin Gates has announced todayβs release of a surprise new mixtape, βOnly The Generals Part II.β To celebrate the 12-track tape, Kevin also unveiled the official music video to one of itβs stellar tracks, βPuerto Rico Luv.β
To be a general, youβre on the frontline, but you still govern. Whether youβre a man, a woman, or a child, youβve got responsibilities. When youβre a general, you recognize those responsibilities. This project speaks to the heart, so itβs only for the generals. Itβs not an album. I just wanted to bless the game with something beautiful.

βOnly The Generals Part II,β which marks the sequel to 2019βs top 10 EP, βOnly The Generals Go Understand,β includes the recently released track, βPlug Daughter 2.β Produced by Internet Money founder Taz Taylor (XXXTentacion, Big Sean), the track is joined by an official companion video, filmed on location in Puerto Rico.
The new mixtape was recorded this year in Puerto Rico as a celebration of Gatesβ own family heritage on the Caribbean island, highlighted on such tracks as βPuerto Rico Luvβ and one of the artistβs personal favorite, βCartel Swag.β
They call Puerto Rico βLa Isla Del Encanto,β which means βThe Island of Enchantment.β The energy here is beautiful. My inspiration in going there was the people in my family. They talk about it with a spirit. Thereβs magic to it. The music I made in Puerto Rico is like no other. The island makes you move with energy, and I could feel my grandmotherβs spirit around me. Itβs just where the fuck I came from.
