Setting Sun - Outasight

I've said it more than once on this site, that I love when this happens. I come across an artist who has gained substantial (as in a fair amount of fans on facebook) fanbase, but yet I have never heard anything from them. I had seen Outasight's name tossed around here and there, but never ended up checking out any of his tracks for some reason. After hearing this joint, I'm kind of upset I slept on him. Outasight has some serious skill, his flow is smooth, his cadence is great, and his rhymes are tight. Overall, a great artist. Plus it helps that this track is catchy as hell. Anyway, enjoy it.

RewindRhyme - Gorilla Warfare Tactics

It's been a while since I have posted any new joints from Gorilla Warfare Tactics, so it's great to hear a new track. In case you missed out on GWT, don't be off put by their name like I was. When I first heard of them, first thing that came to my mind was some crazy hardcore underground rap stuff. I am so glad I was horribly wrong. Just some great, smooth hip hop.Anyway, enjoy the new track from Gorilla Warfare Tactics.

Hope Solo - Huey Mack

Now this is funny stuff. After the US loss in the finals, Huey dropped this gem. He put it together when he was still drunk, so it's pretty funny. It's a surprisingly good track, even though it's ridiculous theme, so check it out. Enjoy.




PLUS, on a more serious note, Huey dropped some visuals for his track Orientation of his latest mixtape, Freshman 15. Once again, a Jon Kilmer production on the video. Check it out.

Mind Your Manners (Lyrics Video) - Chiddy Bang


I love this. Some people hate these videos, but I think they are sick. Even though it was just words splashing onto the screen, I was entranced the whole time. Mind Your Manners, in case you didn't know, is Chiddy Bang's new big single. I can really see this one getting some radio play, so jump on it before it gets huge. DL from iTunes to support the guys and get a high quality version, or DL the low quality version below.

I Saw The Sign (Video + MP3) - Kinetics & One Love ft. Hendersin, Mike Stud & Missy Modell


So sick. When I heard that this song was in the works, I really didn't know what to think. I'm a huge fan of everyone on the track, but I was just curious to see how everything flowed together. I think the track came out perfect. I just got to read the email with this joint an hour or so ago, and I have already watched the video 5 times. When all you want to do is pop a joint on repeat, you know it's good. Hendersin is sick, Kinetics flow is unreal as always, Mike Stud's verse is dope, Missy's hook is catchy as hell, and the beat put together by One Love is unreal. Plus, Jon Kilmer put together another great video. Word is that if this video gets 10,000 views, they are dropping a DL link, so watch it, tell your friends, and then watch it again. Enjoy. **UPDATE** Finally got my hands on a DL link, so you can finally bump this on your ipod. Enjoy. **UPDATE**

Just A Kid - Mac Miller

Hate him, or love him, he's here to stay, and he's making a big name for himself. Once again, Mac Miller his another 100k milestone on his #Road2AMillionFans, 600,000. Unreal. This time, he drops another track that's pretty sick. I really don't need to hype this, because you know who Mac Miller is. Enjoy.

Up All Night - G-Riot

It's been a little while since we've seen any new tracks from G-Riot, but he's back with a bang. This time he drops a sick track, with such a dope beat, in celebration of his own birthday on Saturday. I think G-Riot is really underrated around the web. He's got some serious skill, but I think it's because his sound is a little bit different. It's almost on the edge of a frat-rap feel, but also on the edge sounding something like CyHi's style. Not that it's a bad thing, because I think he is dope, it's just different. Anyway, enough of me babbling on, so here's the new track. Enjoy.

Yacht Week In America - 3LAU


Mashup artists of the world, take note. This is how you mash. You have to blend the songs, so that when you hear the final product, it feels organic. Sorry, that may have been a mini rant, but I hear so many crappy mashups, that sound so rough, so it's fantastic to hear one that's done so well. 3LAU is new to HotLeaks, but after this track, he definitely wont be a stranger. Enjoy.
