Ballerina - Sez Batters ft. XV & GLC

Had never heard of Sez Batters, but if you're hooking up with Vizzy on a track, your doing something right in my mind. XV posted this track a few hours ago, and it's pretty awesome. The beat on this track is crazy haunting and Sez Batters really has a real smooth flow for his verse. After this track, I will be on the watch for more from him. Enjoy.

Work Out - J. Cole

It's official. Here's J. Cole's official first single released from his upcoming album. It's been long awaited, just because he needed permission to use the samples (Kanye and Paula Abdule). Another amazing track, from an amazing artist. 2011 is Cole's year, so watch out. Enjoy it.

I'm On One (Remix) - J. Lye

New track from J. Lye. His last track that I posted, Lyes, was actually a mini landmark for HotLeaks. It was my 100th post. Exciting stuff, I know, but what I'm getting at is that I haven't heard anything since then. Honestly, this is a dope track to come back with. I love the beat to I'm On One, and J. Lye tears it up. Seriously, be on the watch for more from him, because I like where hes going. Enjoy.

Wake Up - Mista Mista ft. D. Julien & Neil Lentendre

I got sent this one a few day ago, and just got around to listening to it now, and I'm hooked. I had never heard of Mista Mista, but I knew D. Julien, and it got sent to me by Young Scolla, so I wasn't going in completely blind. The track has a really cool feel to it. Mista Mista has a real rough flow, which I dig, D. Julien is smooth as always, and Neil Lentendre on the hook is haunting. All together, it makes a really good track. Check it out below.

Stereo Hearts (Acoustic Cover) - Collin McLoughlin


This is awesome. I thoroughly love every track that Collin has been putting out lately. This time he does a "cover" of the bound-to-be-radio-hit, Stereo Hearts, by Gym Class Heroes ft. Adam Levine. I put cover in quotations because it starts as a cover, but then moves to an acoustic mashup of Stereo Hearts, The Lazy Song, and Just Can't Get Enough. Collin blends it all so well with his soothing voice and amazing acoustics. Check this one out, I know you will enjoy it.

Just the track:

Dirt Road Anthem (Remix) - Jason Aldean ft. Ludacris

Now, don't judge me on this one. Country and Hip Hop, a duo rarely seen, and 95% of the time, it's for good reason. Don't get me wrong, I was pretty much raised on country music, so its always been a little bit of a guilty pleasure of mine. Luda and Jason performed this one at the Country Music Awards a little while ago, and a CDQ has just surfaced. I'll be honest, my verdict is still out on this one. Check it out, and say what you think.

These Days (Video) - Beau Young Prince


How am I just hearing about this now? YP dropped a lil taste of what's to come on his up coming mixtape, The Reverse Effect, coming out June 19th. I said it before, but his cadence is unbelievable. Take a listen/watch, and get excited for The Reverse Effect.
