Banger (Moshpit) - ScHoolboy Q

Another teaser to hold you over for an album release. This time it's from ScHoolboy Q's Oxymoron. Check it out.

Lovely Day (Video) - Vic Mensa

Innanetape is gonna be unreal. With each new drop from Vic Mensa, I get more and more excited because each track is so better than the last. This latest makes Vic sound more like Chance The Rapper than he ever has before, but it's actually probably my favorite that I've heard from him. Anyway, check this one out, and watch out for Innanetape dropping September 30th.

Heat Of The Night - 2AM Club

It really is magic every time 2AM Club gets together. I've said it before but there's something just plain amazing about their sound. The combination of catchy vocals, with smooth flow and spectacular melodies is something that you really can't help but enjoy. Enjoy their latest gem below.

I Choose U (Acoustic) (Timeflies Tuesday) - Timeflies


Do I really need to explain what's going on here? Didn't think so. Enjoy.

Grand Theft Audio V (Mixtape) - DJ Cash VII

Spotted this new tape hosted by GMAD a few day ago, but to be honest, I really didn't think too much about when I did. The couple of tracks I buzzed through were kind of underwhelming, and being the short attention span blogger I am, I didn't look past those first couple. Just yesterday though, I spotted a new track from one of my favorite artists, Raz Simone, and saw that it was off this new Grand Theft Audio V mixtape, so after that, I decided to give it another go. I'm glad I did, because even though there are a few subpar tracks, there's more than a few brand new tracks from fantastic artists that I would have missed out on otherwise. As I said, one of those artists is Raz Simone, but there's also Futuristic, Ground Up, Jitta On The Track and Jon Connor just to name a few. Check this one out below.

The Alphabet - Luke Christopher

I hate to bite off what other people are saying, but when I heard this track described as sounding like it should be on Kanye's College Dropout, I couldn't help but agree. The combination of skillful lyricism, smooth flow, catchy hook and thoroughly enjoyable beat is just too much to ignore. Don't sleep on this one, and hopefully we'll hear more from Luke soon, as this is drop off his upcoming project, The Wonder Years pt. 1, so be on the lookout.

Language (Video) - Jez Dior


My man Jez Dior does it again. He's become real master of the quality over quantity motto, because even though his releases aren't as frequent as some artists, they are always amazing. For this one, he's decided to put his own spin on Drake's Language, and as expected, it turned out fantastic. Definitely check this one out, and if you haven't yet, you need to go cop his debut project Scarlett Sage. Enjoy

Escape (Collin McLoughlin Remix) - 3LAU, Paris & Simo ft. Bright Lights

Amazing. Collin McLoughlin is back behind the boards again, but this time he's taken on 3LAU's high energy  track Escape, and has given it a whole new refreshing melodic sound. Seriously, this track is gorgeous, so do yourself a favor and check it out below.

We Own The Night (The Chainsmokers Remix) - The Wanted

Some ear candy for your Monday night from The Chainsmokers. Seriously, just press play and prepare to enjoy yourself.

Eerrtahng - Ja Rule

The second release in less than a week? Yeah. Ja Rule is back for sure, and I'm not complaining, because he is on fire with these tracks. Check it.

Cereal (Video) - OnCue


Some fresh visuals from Cuey that I missed out on last week. Check it out above, and if you missed the track, you can cop it below.

Dip (Video) - Danny Brown


I hate that I like this as much as I do. This is the latest track off Danny Brown's upcoming project Old, and I just can't stop listening to it. Check it out above.

Wassup - Olu ft. CJ Trillo

Today was a pretty slow day at work, so instead of doing busy work, I decided to check out what some artists were up to who I hadn't heard from in a little while. One of those artists was Olu, and it turned out that I actually missed a sick new collab track that he released with CJ Trillo last month. I really don't wanna hype with one up, because I really think it can speak for itself, so in case you missed it (like I did), check it out below.

YNSP - Vic Mensa ft. Eliza Doolittle

Vic Mensa's newest mixtape releases on the 30th, but to hold us over until then, he decided to release this sick track. He decided to take on a twisted Freddie Gibbs' Bout It Bout It beat, and he actually manages to hold his own on it. Was excited for INNANETAPE before, but now I can't wait. Enjoy.

Fresh Out Da Pen - Ja Rule

Ja is back! This is his first official track that he's dropped since being released back in May, but hopefully it's the first of many. Check it out below.

Listen The Fuck Up - ANTHM

As always, ANTHM is straight up impressive. This time he showcases his skills on Drake's Wu Tang Forever beat. Don't sleep on this one.

Crooked Smile (Video) - J. Cole ft. TLC

Cole released some visuals for his hit track Crooked Smile yesterday, and there was no way I was going to let you miss out on it. Check it out above.

Wednesday, September 18, 2013

Two Kings - Logic ft. King Chip

I will admit that although this definitely isn't my favorite track from Logic, it still showcases his lyrical prowess behind the mic. Plus it's got a feature from King Chip, and you really can't go wrong with that. Check it out.

Royals (Timeflies Tuesday) - Timeflies


Two Timeflies Tuesdays in a row? Nothing wrong with that. Enjoy it.

Ghost Town - Radical Something ft. Outasight & Kinetics

This actually works so well. The kings of summer (Radical Something) are performing a show with Kinetics and Outsight on Thursday, so in celebration, they decided to put together this gem. It starts out with a great catchy verse from Outasight, followed by a smooth 16 from Loggy, and then Kinetics finishes it off wonderfully. And to top it all off, it's laced with some soulful vocals from the always amazing Josh Cocktail. Don't miss this one.

Cups (Remix) - Marc Goone


I want to start this post off with a quick fact about me: Anna Kendrick is my dream girl. So that being said, I was kind of hesitant to press play on this latest track from Marc Goone. But when I did, I was pleasantry surprised. Goone flips the song with his, for lack of a better term, ridiculous (but skillful) wordplay, and creates a track that is actually pretty enjoyable. Check it out, and look out for more next Tuesday.

Say You Want Me - Super Groupie

I would now like to introduce you to a band known simply as Super Groupie. Hailing from sunny San Diego, this trio has a sound that is just plain infectious. They actually remind me a bit of Kids These Days, which isn't a bad thing at all. Check it out below, and hopefully we'll be hearing more from these kids.

Wrecking Ball (WoodysProduce Remix) - Miley Cyrus

And so it begins. You knew the second after Miley released this track that everybody and their sisters would jump in to give it a remix. Well the first to go in is WoodysProduce, and I would just like to say, what a way to start. I'm just gonna let this one speak for itself, so check it below.

CLEAR (Video) - Dumbfoundead


I'll look for any excuse to share Dumbfoundead again, and a new video is as good excuse as any. Back in February, he released his (free) album Old Boy Jon, and since then he hasn't really released any new music per say, but he's been definitely been keeping us fans happy with great videos like this. Enjoy it, and if you haven't yet, go check out Old Boy Jon.

Monday, September 16, 2013

Heartbeat - Chiddy Bang ft. Two Guyz

I definitely missed this gem last week. Chiddy Bang (now Xaphoon-less in case you've been sleeping) hooked up with Two Guyz (who I've honestly never heard of), and has created a thoroughly enjoyable track. Definitely a little different than what you might be used to hearing from Chiddy Bang, but great none the less. Check it out below.

All Around - Trademark

Nothing wrong with a new mash from the always amazing Trademark. This time he takes Treasure (Audien Dub Mix) by Bruno Mars, Avicii's Wake Me Up and Kaskade's Atmosphere, and has created a blend that is just perfect for your pregame playlist. Do yourself a favor and check this one out.

Thursday, September 12, 2013

Wu-Tang Forever - Drake

Wasn't about to let you miss out on the newest leak off Drake's Nothing Was The Same. Check it out below.

Dontcha - The Internet


The Internet has such a great sound. She's always just so smooth, and her tracks are always enjoyable. This latest is no different. Enjoy.

We Can't Stop (Timeflies Tuesday) - Timeflies


Their back! The boys of Timeflies have put together a brand new Timeflies Tuesday, and simply put, it is amazing. I know I say this every time, but Cal's freestyle skills are out of this world, and Rez' work on the boards is second to none. But, you're gonna check this one out no matter what I say, so just enjoy it.

Better Off DEAD (Mixtape) - Flatbush Zombies

Finally. Flatbush Zombies, huge players in the Beast Coast movement in case you've been sleeping, have finally released their latest mixtape, Better Off Dead. I've honestly been on the edge of my seat waiting for this one since they announced it back in July, and now that it's finally here, I just can't stop listening to it. My expectations were pretty high, but Better Off DEAD still managed to impress me. Definitely not one you're gonna want to miss. The BEAST COAST is on the come up.

Ungrateful Eyes (Video) - Jon Bellion


Jon Bellion is back! It's been more than a few months since he his amazing debut project, Translations Through Speakers, but now he's finally back at it, and working on a brand new album. Ungrateful Eyes is the first single off of it, and if it's any indications, the album (which will be free by the way) is going to be amazing. Don't sleep on this one, and if you've been sleeping on Jon up until now, it's definitely the time to check him out.

Starlight (Collin McLoughlin Remix) - Don Diablo & Matt Nash

Now just to warn you, don't get your hopes up for a Collin McLoughlin vocal remix. Instead, he's decided to jump behind the boards and give this EDM heavy track a much more soothing electro vibe, and it turned out absolutely fantastic. Seriously, do yourself a favor and check this one out. Enjoy.

Honest (Video) - Marc Goone

Marc Goone has decided to keep the fans entertained while he's working on his upcoming album, so here's the first of hopefully many remixes/covers for us to enjoy. Catchy as hell, and filled with, well, honest lines from Goone. Enjoy it, and be on the lookout for more.

Show Me - Kid Ink ft. Chris Brown

This sounds exactly like you would think it would sound, so no real surprises here. Kid Ink does his normal thing, and then Breezy comes in on the hook. No denying that it's catchy though. Check it out below.

Monday, September 9, 2013

On My Own - Hona Costello

I would now like to introduce you to Hona Costello, an up and comer native to Chicaho. I'll be honest with you, I really don't know that much about him, but what I can tell you is that this track is fantastic. His flow is a combination of Jitta On The Track and Jez Dior, and there's nothing wrong with that. I will definitely be on the lookout from more from Hona Costello, but for now, enjoy this one.

Change Your Life - Iggy Azalea ft. T.I


Dear Iggy Azalea, please don't change. Ever. Change Your Life is a fantastic combination of hard rhymes and catchy vocals that I just can't stop listening to. Iggy's latest gem with T.I just got a new set of visuals, so in case you missed out when it first dropped, here's a new excuse to check it out. Enjoy.

I Need Your Love (No Pets Allowed Remix) - Calvin Harris ft. Ellie Goulding

A refreshing twist on Ellie's hit track from No Pets Allowed. Check it out below.

Hold On We're Going Home (Remix) - Mike Stud


Now it's Mike Stud's turn to put his own spin on Drizzy's hit Hold On We're Going Home. For the first minute or so, he does a fantastic cover of the original, but then for the next, he gets back to his classic, and always amazing flow. This is not one to miss.

Ooh Kill Em - Meek Mill

Once again, I'm a little late on this one, but here's Meek Mill's Kendrick response. Enjoy.

Wrecking Ball (Video) - Miley Cyrus


Yeah, that's right. Miley goes full on nude for her latest song/video, AND, even if I get some backlash for this, I still think she's a smoke show despite her VMA incident. I have a feeling that this is gonna be a huge radio track, so prepare yourselves.

Theme Song - Audio Push ft. T.I.

I'll be honest, I've been sleeping on Audio Push, a duo out of SoCal. They've been on the scene for a few years now, but this track featuring TIP is the first of their's that I've actually heard, and I am impressed. Plus it kind of helps that their on a Hit Boy produced beat. But all that being said, I'll definitely be paying attention to what these guys are doing from now on. Check it below.

Can't Hold Us (Remix) - Pretty Boy Cuv


I told you this kid was gonna start to blow. For Pretty Boy Cuv's latest, he's jumped on Macklemore's hit track Can't Hold Us, and absolutely killed it. With each new release, his flow becomes tighter and more refined. Can't wait to hear where he goes. Enjoy it.

Metabars - e-dubble

First off, I'm going to start this one with an apology. I've been seriously slacking on the posts over the last few days, and I could give you a hundred reasons why, but let's be honest, none of them really matter that much because it's new music you crave, not my excuses. So without further adieu, here's Mr. e-dubble's newest First Friday release. This actually is one of my favorite tracks that e-dub has put together, period. Heavy hitting beat, and straight crispy flow. This is e-dubble in his prime right here. Don't sleep on this one.


*This is a great track from a great artist, so if you can, cop it via iTunes by pressing the "buy" button. BUT if you're feeling thrifty, you can hit up the main Soundcloud link for a free download too.

You Song - Lil Wayne ft. Chance The Rapper

Not that you really care, but in case you didn't know, Weezy dropped his Dedication 5 mixtape over the weekend. All Most of it is sub-par at best, but this joint featuring Chance The Rapper is actually pretty sick. If you don't download the whole tape (which honestly is barely worth it), at least check out this gem.

44108 (Mixtape) - King Chip

I could talk this one up a bit, but honestly, it is exactly what you would expect in a mixtape from King Chip. Some solid tracks, some passable tracks and some really catchy tracks. It's got em all. Check it out below.

Mirrors (Cover) - Ellie Goulding

Wow. One of my favorite tracks of 2013 now officially has a cover done courtesy of my girl Ellie, and it turned out amazing. No more real explanation needed. Enjoy.

Tuesday, September 3, 2013

Karateman - Hodgy Beats ft. Left Brain


Hodgy Beats does it again. His last track, Heart Of The Titty, is still in constant rotation on my iPod, and I have a feeling that this one will be too. After falling off for a bit, I feel like I can now safely say that Odd Future is back on the come-up. Don't sleep on this one.

Monday, September 2, 2013

Royal Flow (Video) - Mike Stud


Toughest track that I've heard from Mike Stud in a long while. Now although I'm a fan of Stud tracks coming from Jon Kilmer, it's kind of refreshing to hear someone else behind the boards. Don't sleep on this one.

Heaven - Nelly ft. Daley

Alright, so I've been a Nelly fan for years now (since first hearing his track Country Grammer back in 2000), but it's no secret that over the last few, he hasn't quite been up to par with his Batter Up days. Now that being said, this latest still isn't quite there, but you really can't deny its mainstream appeal. I can definitely see this getting some radio play. Check it out.

Work (Remix) - Pretty Boy Cuv ft. BenG


Did I not say that this kid has talent? Pretty Boy Cuv is back at it, and has probably spit one of his best tracks to date. Seriously, check this one out.
