Young Sinatra: Welcome To Forever is the fourth mixtape by American hip hop recording artist Logic. It was released as a free online download by Visionary Music Group on May 7, 2013 and finished the Young Sinatra mixtape trilogy, following Young Sinatra and Young Sinatra: Undeniable. The mixtape was downloaded over 100,000 times on DatPiff in less than a day and has garnered over 800,000 downloads on DatPiff as of October 2016.
As he did with Young Sinatra: Undeniable, Logic released music videos for songs off the mixtape before the mixtape was set to be released. For Young Sinatra: Welcome To Forever, videos for "Walk On By" and "Nasty" were released. As far as features go, Logic likes to keep it simple, saying, "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." The mixtape features fellow XXL Freshmen Kid Ink, Trinidad James, and Dizzy Wright as well as Jhené Aiko, Elijah Blake, C Dot Castro, and Logic's Visionary Music Group labelmate Jon Bellion.
Producers who contributed to the mixtape included Logic himself, 6ix, Swiff D, C-Sick, Don Cannon, Key Wane, Arthur McArthur, Kevin Randolph, and No ID.
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. DJ Booth 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.
