Bell dropped a handful of singles ahead of this new mixtape.

2020 was the last year for a brand-new Courtney Bell project, but this weekend changed that with Microdose. The ultra-talented lyricist from Detroit, Michigan has been stirring up a lot of interest in this mixtape over the last few months. Most people were unaware that this tape's rollout began back in late January with the now lead single "Westside." It featured a fellow Motown legend Royce Da 5'9" and most would reason that he was going to be just a feature.

However, the frequent Eminem collaborator has turned to have a much larger hand in this endeavor. If fact, this is listed as a joint project between Courtney and Royce. The latter has another three appearances across the 14-song tracklist. He can also be heard on "Bang," "Get Em High" (another promo track), and "BANZ."

Speaking of promo cuts, Courtney put forth four in total. We were able to take a listen to "Word II Conway" which does indeed feature Conway the Machine. Bell spoke with Audible Treats a few months ago about "Westside" and the sound he was wanting to bring to the modern era. "This record for me is a statement, not only for myself but for the Westside of my city of Detroit and everyone that comes from it. I was inspired to create something sonically that hasn’t really been heard of for my generation." However, we would argue that Bell puts on for the city across the tape.
