The Birthday Tape (Mixtape) - Rockie Fresh

I don't know why people had apprehensions about this tape. Rockie's always been on point, so I expected The Birthday Tape to be pretty good. After giving it a full listen tonight, I can honestly say that this is a great mixtape. More than a few stand out tracks, and there's actually only one of them that I'm not a huge fan of (and I knew it was coming because he leaked it last week). Definitely not project to miss out on, so enjoy it.

80 Little Bars - Sam Lachow

Here's a little something different from Sam Lachow for your Monday night. Now, we're used to hearing Sam spit rhymes on his own beats but for this one, he's decided to go over some classic instrumentals, and as was expected, he kills it. Check this one out for sure.

Teach Her - Dizzy X Ft. Lauren Cato

Dizzy X, who you might recognize from the track Change back in March, is back. This enigma of an artist has brought a brand new track with him, and this time he's decided to soften his flow a little bit. His sound is still dripping with that raw talent that we heard on Change, but now he's grabbed Lauren Cato for some delicate vocal backup. Teach Her is off his upcoming tape, Magnum Opus, which is one I will definitely be on the watch for. Enjoy.

Toy Houses - CJ Trillo

You really can't go wrong with some fresh CJ Trillo. There's just something so consistently spectacular about the way that he flows over these simple but gorgeous beats. CJ decided to release Toy Houses as a treat for us fans while he's working on his next project, so enjoy it.

Smoke Again - Chance The Rapper & Ab-Soul

I said it before, but it's now official: Chance The Rapper has grown on me, and I have become a fan. Smoke Again is another cut off his upcoming tape Acid Rap, which is actually dropping tomorrow, so be on the lookout for that. Great flow from both Chance and Ab-Soul, so check it out above.
