Young Sinatra: Welcome to Forever

Young Sinatra: Welcome to Forever is the fourth mixtape by American rapper Logic.

The mixtape was downloaded over 100,000 times on DatPiff in less than a day and has garnered over 1,000,000 downloads on DatPiff since its release. This project was followed by Logic's fourth studio album YSIV (Young Sinatra IV), with the latter not being credited as a mixtape.

Background
In the lead up to the mixtape, Logic released music videos for "Walk On By" and "Nasty". In an interview with MTV Hive about his features on the mixtape, Logic said that,

"'I love to give the people what they want and that's me. I don’t mean that to sound arrogant but when you listen to someone's music it's them you want to hear [and] not a million and one other people. So if there are features you want them to make sense and have them as something that people are going to be excited for whether they're unexpected or not'."

The mixtape features guest appearances from his 2013 XXL Freshmen class Kid Ink, Trinidad James and Dizzy Wright along with Jhené Aiko, Elijah Blake, Castro and Jon Bellion.

Production
Producers who contributed to the mixtape included Logic himself, 6ix, Swiff D, C-Sick, Don Cannon, Key Wane, Arthur McArthur, Kevin Randolph, and No I.D.

Critical reception
Young Sinatra: Welcome to Forever received critical acclaim from music critics. HipHopDX's consensus determined the project as a "free album," their highest possible praise for a mixtape on the site. DJBooth agreed with HipHopDX in saying Young Sinatra: Welcome to Forever had top notch production and sounded like an album. Edwin Ortiz of HipHopDX found Logic's fourth effort as an indication of his vision, saying, "In a little over three years Logic has gone from a young lyricist with raw potential to a legitimate rap artist with Welcome to Forever." Multiple sources state that Logic's cohesive lyricism has never been a point of question. His music is versatile and diverse, which can be said is the tape's strongest appeal. DJBooth.net felt the project was relatable, introspective, and honest and also said, "his wordplay is potent and when he gets on his lyrical tip, it's hard to argue that he isn't on top of this game." BET's Jake Rohn gave the mixtape 4 out of 5 stars, saying it showcased Logic's remarkable growth and adaptability.
