Live Life (Video) - Matt Easton

Wow. It's been a little while since I've heard this track. This is actually the first one that got me turned onto Matt Easton, and now I remember why. great sample, smooth flow, and wicked party feel. I guess Matt decided to drop some long awaited visuals for this great track, and they don't disappoint. Party track with party visuals. Check it, and enjoy.

Bottle It Up (Video) - Mike Stud ft. Kinetics & One Love

First and foremost, a happy birthday shout to Mike Stud. On his own birthday, he decided to give US the present of some brand new visuals for one of my favorite tracks off his latest mixtape, A Toast To Tommy, which is pretty dope if you ask me. I love when videos go along with tracks like this. Great video, from great artists, off an amazing mixtape. Enjoy, and if you haven't yet, go cop A Toast To Tommy.

Fight For Days - e-dubble

The king is back. It's been a minute since we have heard a new joint from e-dubble (his last one was over a month ago), but as always, it was well worth the wait. I really don't understand why e-dub hasn't blown up by now. Every single track he drops is sick. Seriously. There is not one song of his that I have heard that I didn't like. Anyway, enough of me ranting. This new track has a real haunting beat, and e-dubble's flow is tight, smooth and frosty, which is no surprise because he is always so consistently good. But, you probably haven't even read this far, and have already clicked download. So enjoy it.

The Coolest Job - G-Eazy

Brand new G-Eazy. Still hot off his mixtpape The Endless Summer, G-Eazy drops a dope new track which is "just some random stuff he made and felt like putting out". He samples Mary Poppins, and actually kills it. G-Eazy has such an amazing ability to spit so fluidly over any beat, and make any track a great one. Check it out, and I know you'll enjoy it.

Going Up (Prod. Brenton Duvall) - Beau Young Prince Feat. Leia Sadiku

This is probably one of my favorite joints from YP in a little while. His lyrical ability and cadence really shine on this Brenton Duvall produced beat, and the hook from Leia Sadiku is truly enchanting. Overall, I am really impressed with the track, but really, I didn't expect anything less from YP. Check it out below.

James Franco (Video) - Hoodie Allen

My man Hoodie Allen drops some fresh visuals for Jame Franco, off his latest mixtape Leap Year. This video is great. It's a bunch of shots of Hoodie just seeing James Franco's head on people as he walks around Hollywood Blvd and Venis Beach, which sounds odd, but is actually pretty hilarious. To be honest, this video suits the track perfectly, and if you ever visit the site, you know I love when that happens. Great visuals, for a great track, off a fantastic mixtape (which if you haven gotten yet, you really need to). Enjoy it.

Just the track:

Lost Ones (Video) - J. Cole

Back in '08, Cole started filming this gem, before he was signed, and just yesterday he dropped the final product for us. He once again proves why he truly is an amazing artist, and why he is easily one of my favorites.  You know the song (at least you SHOULD), so I can tell you that the video is just perfect for it. No more words are needed to explain this. Enjoy.

Can't Knock Me Down - Yonas

Sick new track from Yonas. He never fail to impress me with his tracks. Always so smooth and heavy with his flow. Plus it helps that he always jumps on a catchy beat. Check it and enjoy.

Top Bloke - Miracle

He's back. After 3 long months of not hearing anything from Miracle, he's back with a banger. From what I gather, It looks like he's been hard at work, putting together his mixtape and an upcoming album. Also, he recently decided to re-sign with Sony Music Australia, so you are definitely going to be seeing more of him around. Check out the new joint, no DL as of yet, but I'm working on it. Enjoy.

Twistclip Loop (Freestyle) - Childish Gambino

Just a teaser for you. A fresh freestyle from Gambino that won't be on Camp, but it's perfect just to raise the hype. I didn't think it could be raised anymore, but it was. Enjoy.

One Day - Hendersin

Hendersin always impresses me. This new track actually isn't a "new" track per say. It's a previously unreleased track that has a soft, mellow sound, with a real catchy hook and smooth flow. It won't be on his upcoming mixtape I F.L.Y., but it does make me want it to come out even more now. I. F.L.Y. coming November 14th. Enjoy.

All I Do (Video) - Logic

Some visuals dropped from the great lyricist, Logic, for his dope track All I Do, off his latest mixtape, Young Sinatra. In case you missed what I said about it then, I'll say it again: The entire Young Sinatra mixtape has the true sound, the kind that got me into hip-hop. Great samples and amazing lyricism. Anyway, peep the video, and then if you haven't, go cop Young Sinatra.

Marvin & Chardonnay (Xaphoon Jones Remix) - Big Sean ft. Kanye West & Roscoe Dash

I know, it looks like I'm running an add for Adidas, but I swear I'm not. This is the artwork for Xaphoon Jones' latest amazing drop, and it's off a mixtape sponsored by Adidas, so that's the reason. Plus I'm a Nike guy to the core. ANYWAY, Xaphoon absolutely wrecks this track, and gives it a whole new, much smoother feel. I honestly feel like this is how Marvin Gaye & Chardonnay was supposed to sound. Enjoy it.

Money Chaser - Deon Chase

Each track this kid drops, I am more and more impressed. Deon Chase is really maturing into his sound with each joint he drops. I am becoming more and more of a fan with each release, so I hope he keeps on the grind. Check it out and enjoy.



If you like what you hear, check out Deon Chase on facebook and twitter.

U.F.C. (Video) - XV

Wow. Just wow. I love video's like this. The ones that just suit the track PERFECTLY. If you know the track (From his album Zero Heroes in case you've been under a rock), you know it's fast, skilled, spastic, and just wild overall. The video shows off all of these traits of the track perfectly, so props to Rex Arrow for this one. Check it and enjoy it.

Can't Bring Me Down - B. Palma

This is dope. Though you may not recognize his name by itself, B. Palma is one half of the duo known as Over 21. This is a brand new solo track from B. Palma, and let me tell you, I am impressed. The track has a wicked beat and catchy hook, plus, his flow is extremely smooth. Check out this track, and I can promise you'll enjoy it.

Letters Pt. II (Video) - Jitta On The Track

Jitta fell off my radar. I had first heard of him a while back, but unfortunately for me (and you as well), I didn't follow him on twitter or facebook after that, so his name just disappeared off of my books. I am so glad that I got word of him again. This track is amazing, and the video is equally as stunning. Jitta's lyrics hit heavy, and his flow is polished. Plus, he samples The Fray, which is dope. This one is actually off of Jitta's latest mixtape, Be Right Back, which he released back in August.Overall, an amazing song, so check out the visuals, then cop the track below.



***PLUS, a treat. Since I slept on it, here's Jitta On The Track's mixtape, Be Right Back ***

Rearview - PropaneLV ft. Derek Cate

This is hot. PropaneLV is a new up and comer out of Portland OR. He's got a dope sound, which I am really digging right now. His spit is frosty, and I hesitate to say this, because I don't want it blown out of proportion, but his flow at some points on this track reminds me a bit of J. Cole. I will definitely be on the watch for more if he keeps up this dope sound. Check it, and enjoy.

Don't Go - Matt Clarke ft. Kam Royal & Rachel Adams

Matt Clarke is making a name for himself. I know I say this every single time I post his stuff, but Matt really does sound as though he is maturing into his sound. His flow is getting so fluid, and his rhymes are on point. For this joint, he grabs the always dope Kam Royal for a verse, Rachel Adams for an amazing hook, and The Two Friends for this real catchy beat. Overall, I'm impressed. Check it out, and enjoy it.

Reach Down Deep - 2AM Club

Brand new track from 2AM Club. As always, it's unbelievably catchy. I am so glad that someone told me about these guys. The perfect blend of pop, electronic and hip-hop. Seriously, if you've been sleeping on these guys, get familiar. Enjoy.

Video Games (Lana Del Rey Remix) - Kinetics & One Love

So sick. As always, I am blown away. Kinetics & One Love absolutely kill this track. This one is another drop off their upcoming mixtape, Cross-Fading Back to Normal, which is going to be a tape entirely consisting of mashup/remixes. This track is amazing, and I know that all the other tracks will be just as great, so I'm extremely pumped for Cross-Fading Back to Normal. Anyway, listen to the brand new track, because I know you'll love it. Enjoy.

Yeah Again - DJ Beemer

He's back with another banger. I'll be honest, I don't like the song Yeah 3X. I don't know what it is about it, but I just never enjoyed it. DJ Beemer manages to take the track and breath some life into it for me. He actually put together a really enjoyable mash. A perfect joint for you to blast tonight, because it friday, and you should be getting ready to rage (or already raging). Check it, and enjoy it.

Lightwork - Lupe Fiasco ft. Ellie Goulding & Bassnectar

I couldn't not post this. Brand new Lupe, off his upcoming album/mixtape, Friend Of The People, which from the sounds of it, will be a little bit a remix-ish tape, possibly. I'm down for that. Anyway, Lightwork, Lupe goes hard all over Bassnectar's remix of Ellie Goulding's track Lights. I'll be honest, not my favorite Lupe track ever, but still sick. Check it out, and enjoy.

Another Night (Remix) - DJ 21azy

I told you that you would see more of this guy. DJ 21azy, who's last track was a sick Chiddy Bang and Childish Gambino mash, is back, and this time he puts together a Mac's track Another Night, with the vocals from Cole's Who Dat. Unreal. I will be on the watch for more from DJ 21azy, so get familiar.

Feel No Pain (Video) - MDH

Brand new visuals from Modern Day Hippies. I'm a little late posting it, but good music is good music regardless. This one is for their dope track, Feel No Pain, off their recent album, Overture. A simple video, but it succeeds in showing off this great track. If you haven't yet, go grab Overture on iTunes. Enjoy.

Sunflowers - Jellyfish Brigade

Don't be quick to judge these guys. I got an email a few weeks back from a group called "Jellyfish Brigade", and I just kind of skimmed over it. A few days ago, I finally gave the joint a listen, and let me tell you, I'm impressed. Now, this has a little bit of a different sound than what I usually post, so don't be too quick to judge it. Give it a good listen through, because it's got a really cool sound. They blend folk and hip hop with electronic extremely well. Jellyfish Brigade is a newer duo based out of Portland, Oregon. Check out the track, and enjoy it.

Insomniac Dreams (Mixtape) - Eddy B & Tim Gunter

About a year ago, Eddy B & Tim Gunter dropped their debut mixtape, Dear North Carolina, Welcome Back, and it was dope. I still regularly toss on some of my favorite tracks from it. Anyway, this new tape is once again is great. You can tell that Eddy B and Tim G have both grown a lot as artists over the last year, and here at HotLeaks, we've been with the for their entire journey. Well at least since HotLeaks started back in December. As always, some of my favorite joints, then you should definitely cop the whole tape below.

No Throne - Eddy B & Tim Gunter


Move - Eddy B & Tim Gunter ft. Mick Stillz


Keep Dreamin - Eddy B & Tim Gunter

California (Video) - Radical Something

All I want to do is go to California now and live the carefree lifestyle. As I sit here and watch this awesome video for this fantastic track, I realize, I should probably be studying for midterms. Whoops. Check out the video, and if you haven't cop the whole album from Radical Something, We Are Nothing, now.

Lyrical Exercise #6 - Kam Royal

Kam Royal drops a brand new Lyrical Exercise for our listening pleasure. As always, it's sick. Kam actually put up a facebook status along the lines of "if I get 100 likes on this status ill drop lyrical exercise 6", and within a couple hours, he received 120 likes. After that, he gave us this gem. Once again, this one has a little bit of a more mellow vibe to it, but regardless, it's smooth. Check it and enjoy.

Cheer Up / Lost Ones / Lights Please Cover - PJ Simas

New cover from the always dope PJ Simas. This time he tackles three fantastic J. Cole tracks in one go. It's really well done, but that was expected, because everything PJ touches is golden. Check it out, and then DL it below.

College Boy Dreams (Mixtape) - Mr. Defoe

It's been a while since we've heard from Mr. Defoe. The last time (and first time) I heard from Mr. Defoe, he was on a dope track with a HotLeaks favorite, Olu. Since then, he's clearly been working his ass off, and clearly flying under my radar, because this tape is dope. In case you aren't familiar, Mr. Defoe is an up and coming artist based out of Ohio, and is a second year student at the University of Toledo. After listening to this entire tape, I can honestly say that this kid has got some serious talent. His flow is tight and polished, not to mention diverse. Each song sounds different, but he somehow keeps the same dope sound. Check out a couple of my favs, as always, below, then go cop the tape to help out a great up and comer.

Hold Your Thoughts - Mr. Defoe

Put It In Your Manners (Childish Gambino vs. Chiddy Bang) - DJ 21azy

Wow. That is all I have to say. I always loved the Chiddy Bang beat for Mind Your Manners, so when a newcomer DJ 21azy takes it and flips some Gambino verses on it, I couldn't help but grab it. Just check it out, and I know you'll enjoy it. Watch out for this guy, because you will definitely be seeing his name more often if he keeps the tracks as dope as this one.

Rigamortis (Video) - Kendrick Lamar

Now, I'm not going to pretend I loved Kendrick Lamar before seeing this. I knew about him, but I really never checked any of his stuff out. After seeing him on the BET Cypher, I had to give this guy a second look. He just released a new video for a dope lyrical masterpiece called Rigamortis, and it's fantastic. Check it out and enjoy it.

Download the track below

Get It Together (Mixtape) - Outasight

I don't know what it is about Outasight, but I can't help but thoroughly enjoy every track he does. This gem of a mixtape is actually a compilation of old and new Outasight tracks, which is dope. I was only made aware of Outsight at the end of August, so to hear a ton of songs like this, I am pumped. In case you've been sleeping, Outsight is a NY artist, who really transcends genres. I know, you hear that a lot these days, but seriously, he blends pop, hip-hop, electronic, and even the blues, like it's no problem. Each of his tracks sounds different, but still has a signature sound, which is dope. Anyway, check a couple of my favs below. Enjoy it.

The Graduate - Outasight


Stays The Same - Outsight


Shes Leaving Home - Outsight

Season Three (Mixtape) - Drew Howard

In case you don't recognize the name, Drew Howard is a dope 19 year old artist out of Ajax, Ontario. It's been a minute since I have posted anything from Drew, so for that I'm sorry. Season Three is his brand new mixtape that dropped a few days ago. I'm just getting around to checking it out, and let me say, I'm impressed. His flow is tight, and he's got a sound that's different from everyone else, which if you hit the site often, you know I dig. Anyway, I'll let the tracks speak for themselves, so here are a few of my favs. Enjoy.



So Far, So Good - Drew Howard ft. D-Pryde & Maribelle Anes

I Love Life, Thank You (Mixtape) - Mac Miller

And he reached it. Mac Miller started his #Road2AMillion fans a while back, and just today, he finally reached his goal. In celebration, Mac Miller dropped this little gem for the fans. At the time of me writing this, he's already at 1,004,763 followers on twitter, and in all honestly, it doesn't look like he's slowing down anytime soon. I feel like I don't even need to explain this one, because you know Mac, and your going to check this out regardless. All this mixtape did for me was get me more excited for Blue Slide Park, dropping soon. Enjoy.

All This - Mac Miller


Boom Bap Rap - Mac Miller ft. The Come Up

Sweat - Bow Wow ft. Lil Wayne

I can see this being huge. A brand new leak off Bow Wow's upcoming mixtape. To be honest, I had no idea Bow Wow was still in the game, let alone releasing a mixtape. And to be honest again, I probably wont have any interest in it. This track is different though. The beat is catchy, Wayne is on point, and Bow Wow does his thing. Like I said, I can see this being a real big track, so prepare to hear it all over the place. Enjoy.

Rage Pack (Mixtape) - Machine Gun Kelly

And here it is. MGK's first release since his signing to Bad Boy Entertainment. I'll be honest, it's a hell of a lot better than I thought it would be. Not that I thought it would be bad, I just thought it would have sounded a bit manufactured, and it actually doesn't at all. I actually thoroughly enjoyed this one. MGK stayed true to himself, and it came out great. The whole tape actually sounds as though some serious thought and time was put into it, which is dope. As always, a few of my favs below, then go cop the whole tape. Enjoy it.


Chasing Pavements - Machine Gun Kelly

Fantasy (DIGIRAATII) - Machine Gun Kelly ft. Aaron Lafette


STFU - Machine Gun Kelly


LTFU (One More Time) - Machine Gun Kelly


Download: Rage Pack

Made Me Proud - Drake ft. Nicki Minaj

New leak off Take Care. As expected, it's dope. I think Drake's album is going to be sick if it keeps up with this great sound. Plus, my girl Nicki absolutely kills it, as always. Enjoy.

All The Shine - Childish Gambino

Now this was fun. Gambino tweeted about a site. At first, I thought nothing of it. He then followed it up by saying the following:

After that I figured, hey, I'm procrastinating, so why not dig through this site for shits and giggles. At first glance it looked like a Korean girl's tumblr page, filled to the brim with random cuteness. After going through a couple pages, I came across this video:


Yes, Childish Gambino had hidden stuff in a created tumblr account. I dug a little bit furthur and spotted a single play-able link, with no description. This was the gem I was looking for. Some unreleased Gambino. All The Shine is actually a rough live studio cut that he put together a few weeks ago, but its a great taste of whats coming with Camp, so get excited.

***UPDATE*** Gambino dropped a CDQ version.... So dope. ***UPDATE***



Plus another treat I found on the site. Another video, and this one is a big teaser of another track. I'm so pumped.

Runaround - Accent ft. Kinetics

A true lyricist right here. In case you don't recognize the name, Accent is a amazing artist out of Manhattan. I first heard of him when Kinetics sent me a freestyle that him and Accent put together. Ever since then, I knew that this Accent guy had some serious skill. Just yesterday, my inbox was blessed once again with a fantastic track sent from Kinetics. Accent's flow is unreal. This beat is smooth and mellow, and is really the perfect sound to show off the lyrical skill all over this track. I am honestly blown away by Accent's skill, and of course, Kinetics kills it like always. This is actually the first leak off Accent's upcoming mixtape, The Conception Mixtapes Vol. 2/3: I Love Nujabe, which if it sounds anything like this, I will be all over it. Anyway, enough of me rambling, check the track, and enjoy it.

Jupiter Unison (3LAU Bootleg) - Dallask and Porter Robinson

Still hot off Dance Floor Filth, 3LAU blesses us with an amazing bootleg. Perfect timing, its just in time for your friday night rager (or just a little late for your thursday rager). If you DL this one, then turn it up real loud, I can guarantee a party will have started around you. Check it out and enjoy it.

I'm An Outlaw - FinaL OutlaW ft. StartYourOwnRebellion

This is dope. Wicked spit and a really catchy hook. I really had no idea who FinaL OutlaW was, but I have always thought StartYourOwnRebellion has had a sick sound, so when they posted this track a couple days ago, I had to check it out. The second I heard it, I was oddly entranced for the entire song. The whole track has a real cool sound to it, so check this one out for sure.

Blue Slide Park - Mac Miller

Pretty sure I need to post this. Mac reached 25,000 pre-orders for Blue Slide Park in iTunes, so he dropped the title track for us to enjoy. In all honesty, not my favorite Mac track. It really isn't a great song to drop as a single in my opinion, but what do I know, I'm just a simple blogger. Check it out.

Gonna Be Good (Acoustic) - Radical Something

The musical movement known as Radical Something is back. This time, they are dropping a DL of their acoustic version of Gonna Be Good, off their fantastic album, We Are Nothing. I'll be honest, I like the acoustic version much better. When I heard the studio version on the album, I liked it, but it wasn't as enjoyable as the acoustic. But, clearly the boys in Radical Something can read my mind, because here's the acoustic for you. Enjoy.

Windows Down - Dean and Ravo

It's been a minute since we've heard from the deadly duo of Dean & Ravo, but they are back, and they brought an unbelievably catchy track with them. Wicked flow, dope hook, and a real catchy beat. This track is actually going to be used for a hyundai campaign, which is pretty huge, so props to them for that. Dean and Ravo are actually planning on releasing an album in early 2012, which from the sounds of this track, should be unreal. Anyway, no DL link as of yet, so you'll just have to listen to it on youtube for now. Enjoy.

iTribute (Timeflies Tuesday) - Timeflies

Back again with another edition of Timeflies Tuesday. This time, the guys decided to put together a tribute track instead of their normal freestyle. As you can probably guess, it's a show of respect to Steve Jobs. They actually shot this entire video on an iPad, used samples for the beat from OSX and iOS, mixed it on an iMac, then edited the video using iMovie. A true dedication. Enjoy.

Chasing Dreams - Collin McLoughlin

This is actually gorgeous. I know, I seem to say that about every track that Collin puts out, but seriously, you listen to this song, and you can't help but feel it. Just take a listen for yourself, and you'll feel it. This is actually a bonus, original track off Collin's upcoming EP, which is dropping November 1st. I can tell you, I will be all over it the second it drops, so get excited. Enjoy.

Dear Future (Mixtape) - SoLo

I definitely slept on this one. I downloaded it on Monday, but I have been busy with midterms since then, so I haven't gotten a chance to sit down and give it a listen, and I didn't want to post it without even listening to it. Now that I have some time, I got to give it a full listen. Overall, I'm impressed. In my opinion, this mixtape is much better than SoLo's previous drop, Electric Playground. Not that it was bad, you can just hear that SoLo is really maturing as an artist, and growing into his sound, which is dope. His flow is confident and smooth, but doesn't come off cocky. So overall, like I said, great mixtape from SoLo, so props to him. Check out a couple of my favs, then grab the whole tape below.

Why Not - SoLo ft. Miles Malcolm


Dear Future - SoLo


Speak My Brain - SoLo

Boss Level - XV

The verdict is still out on this one for me. It's well known that XV is one of my favorite artists around right now, and I feel that he can really do no wrong. I also like the Skrillex track. Now I'll be honest, at some points this track is sick, but then at other points, it just feel really rough for me, which is why I am still a bit unsure about this one. Check it out, and make up your own decision. PS, I love the artwork... #ChronoTriggerFTW

J'adore (Mixtape) - De-Lor

I'll be honest, it seems like De-Lor came out of nowhere. Just a couple weeks ago I got a little email with an amazingly smooth joint on it, then a few days later, I received a fantastic track with a huge feature from Kinetics. Now you see his name all over the blogs. In case you slept, De-Lor is a great emerging artist who has such a smooth sound that you can't help but enjoy. This is actually is his debut mixtape, and let me tell you, it's one hell of a way to start off. Every track is extremely enjoyable to listen to. Anyway, I'm not going to try and hype this one, I'll just let you listen for yourself. I know you'll enjoy it.

That We Loved - De-Lor

A Song For Her - Erik Paul

This is gorgeous. When an artist can completely change their style for a track, and then to proceed to knock it out of the park, you know they are good. Erik Paul really switches it up on this one. He slows down for a smooth acoustic track dedicated to a girl who is clearly special to him. This right here is a true artist shining. Enjoy it, because I know I did.

Earthquake - Labrinth ft. Tinie Tempah

Such a banger. I've actually had this track for a few weeks now, but I've only had a radio rip with tags all over it. Finally, I was able to get my hands on an actual version. Seriously, this track is so dope. I can see this being a HUGE track from Britain's best. Check it and Enjoy.

4 Reasons why I want to go to a Taylor Swift concert

Yes, you read that right. Now, I know I don't normally post stuff like this, but I figured I had to. Back in May, I posted a video of Taylor covering an Eminem track, live in concert, which was awesome. Now, about a week ago, I saw that during a live concert, Taylor Swift broke out into a classic track, Yeah, and brought out Usher to sing along. When I saw this, my Jr. High days came flooding back to me. More importantly, it inspired me to create this list. 4 reasons why I want to go to a Taylor Swift concert.

Bottle (Video) - EKG

EKG bless up with some brand new visuals, for easily one of my favorite tracks off their recent EP, Laugh It Off. In case you missed it, Bottle is one of those tracks that tells a story of sorts, and the video, is well, a video of the story. It actually had me hooked for the entire thing. Check out the video, and if you haven't yet, grab the EP Laugh It Off. Watch out for these guys, they're doing things. Enjoy.

Heartwood - Crystal Seth

It's been a minute since we've heard from Crystal Seth, but I kept my ear to the ground, and it was well worth it. This gem is a drop off Seth's upcoming mixtape, Left On Freeport, which is dropping on October 14th. From what I have heard. Crystal Seth has really been growing into his sound, and I can see big things coming for him. Check out the track, and be on the watch for the tape.

On Fire (Drug Dealer Girl Part II) - Machine Gun Kelly ft. Mike Posner

New MGK. I'll be honest with you now. I'm super pumped that MGK got signed to Bad Boy, but ever since then, his releases have been kind of sub par in my opinion. This is his first track that I have actually enjoyed in a little while. I still think MGK is a sick artist, so nothing about that has changed in that sense. You can hate on me, but I'm allowed my opinions. This is actually rumored to be a release off MGK's upcoming tape, Rage Pack, which hopefully is sick. Check it and enjoy it.

Lead You On (Video) - IanJ ft. EZ

I was listening to my iPod the other day, and an IanJ track came on, and I thought to myself, hey, it's been a while since i've heard anything new from him. Little did I know that a few days later he would release some brand new visuals for his sick song Lead You On. Check it, and enjoy it.

Out Of My League - De-Lor ft. Kinetics + Beautiful Life - De-Lor

Now this is wicked stuff. Great track from a new up and coming artist, De-Lor, based out of Boston. Now, I definitely slept on this artist. De-Lor has a fantastic sound. It's heavy like R&B, but it has some pop influences, but overall, it's extremely enjoyable to listen to. Plus, on this track, he grabs a couples HotLeaks favs, Kinetics & One Love, so it has to be good. Enjoy.



***Plus, another treat***
De-Lor actually sent his stuff my way a few weeks back, I downloaded it, but it really just got lost in the mix. It kept coming up in my itunes, and every single time, I would have to listen to it. It was so smooth, and so catchy, but like I said, it got lost in the mix, so I never posted it. For that, I'm sorry, because this really is a fantastic track. Plus, it has a real simple, elegant video to go along with it. Enjoy this one.



Just the track:

A Toast To Tommy (Mixtape) - Mike Stud

I am impressed with this one. Mike Stud actually killed this tape. I have come to really like Mike Stud, AKA the self proclaimed King of Frat Rap, but it's no secret that he gets a bad rep here and there. Originally, I thought he was all one liners, but then I came to realize he was much more. A Toast To Tommy is a testament to that. There really is a track on this tape for everyone. Smooth spitting tracks, catchy pop tracks, heavy bangers, and of course party tracks. Overall, I really enjoyed this one. Plus, GCS did a ton of production on this track, so you know the beats are dope on those. Here are a couple of my favs, but definitely cop the whole tape. An amazing rookie mixtape if you ask me.

Still hot off their recent mixtape release of Merp Nation (which is still on repeat on my ipod), the boys in New Linen drop a brand new track for our listening pleasure. As always, its filled with smooth melodies, and sick flow. Check it out, and enjoy it.



Check the boys out on Facebook & Twitter.
