Let's Ride (Video) - Ground Up


Now here's a name that I haven't seen in quite some time. Ground Up. Azar, Malakai, and Bij Lincs are all back, and I'll be honest, it feels like they never left. Their signature flow over a quick hitting, street infused beat. Not one you should let yourself miss out on.


Love Me Again - YONAS

Another track from last week that I didn't get to post. This time it's one from YONAS, and he's taken the hook from John Newman's song of the same name (twisted by Sean Ross), and spits some impressive bars over top. Enjoy it.

Days In The West (WoodysProduce Remix) - Tinashe

Alright, so maybe I've been off my posting game lately. Cut me a little slack, it's summer, I'm allowed to go out and party, and enjoy the sun a little bit. Well I'm back at it now, and here's a new remix from WoodysProduce that I've been listening to non stop for the last week. Check it below.

So Far, So Far (Video) - Raz Simone


Gorgeous, just like everything else that Raz Simone releases. This time he's put together a video for his track So Far, So Far, off his Cognitive Dissonance album, and it's one of those one's that suits the mood of the track perfectly. Do yourself a solid and press play on this one.

Buy The World - Mike Will Made-It ft. Future, Lil Wayne & Kendrick Lamar

This is going to be a big one. Mike Will Made-It beat with verses from Weezy and Kendrick, and a hook from Future. I can't stop listening.

Shots fired!

Here's Mike Stud's first response to Hoodie's line, which was released briefly after Nolan Ryan dropped. I said that shit would start to pop off, and this one was just the beginning.


Shortly after that, Hoodie decided to up the ante, and come back at Mike in full force. Below is the result.




And here we have the latest shot from Mike, and I am impressed. This white boy "beef" has been much more impressive than I ever thought it would have been. Enjoy it, and maybe watch out for more?

BLVD Dreams - Deon Chase x Slumdog Hill x Avenue

It's been a while since we've seen the name Deon Chase here on HotLeaks, but the kid is back at it, and let me just say that he's killing it. BLVD Dreams is a new single off a predicted collab tape from these three that should drop later this summer, so be on the lookout for that. Definitely impressed with this one, don't miss out on it.

One For Me ft. Tinashe (Video) - Ryan Hemsworth


Really cool video from my man Ryan Hemsworth. It's for one of his tracks off his debut album, Guilt Trips, from last year, and it just couldn't turn away from it. It's a perfect fit for the track, and as you probably know about me, I love that in a video. Enjoy it, and here's what Ryan had to say about it:

"Martin approached me about making “the most boring video for 2014.” At this point in my life, I realized it would be a great thing to do because the Super Cool DJ lifestyle is one associated with being the life of the party and never having a dull moment. The truth is that it’s mostly made up of moments waiting around and hanging out by yourself. The track itself is already about walking through the middle of a crowd feeling alone. So driving around Montreal in a Lamborghini yawning felt like a good way of showing how awesome and equally solitary it can get sometimes."

Nolan Ryan - Hoodie Allen

Hoodie Allen comes hard on this new track. It's actually probably one of the most aggressive tracks I've heard from Hoodie, which is not a bad thing at all. This one is impressive lyrically overall, but its big buzz online right now is because it was actually the first series of shots fired in a good ol classic rap-beef (white boy style). Check out the details of the begining of the twitter war here. Watch out for some more responses.

TTU - Flosstradamus ft Waka Flocka

A banger to add to your rager playlist. Flosstradamus hooked up with Waka for this huge track that is, without a doubt, get your weekend turnt up. Enjoy.

Fancy (Timeflies Tuesday) - Timeflies


Definitely didn't forget about the newest Timefles Tuesday drop, so don't you worry. Check out Cal and Rez' spin on Iggy's hit above.

Hunnid Stax (Feat. ScHoolboy Q) - Ab-Soul

Ab-Soul's upcoming album These Days... is dropping soon (June 24th to be exact), so that probably means we're gonna be getting some solid leaks over the next couple weeks. This new one, featuring TDE's own ScHoolboy Q, is a dope track, and if it's any indication of how the album is going to sound, I can't wait. It also sounds like it features a hook from Mac Miller, but that's just a guess (a dam good one though if I do say so myself). Check it out.

Ordinary - G-Unit

They're officially back on the grind. Only a few days after their comeback, G-Unit are already back at it, this time taking on Jeezy and Trey Songz' Ordinary. Don't miss this one.

Monica Lewinski / The Day It All Changed - G-Eazy

 A double dose of G-Eazy for your Tuesday night. Both of these are tracks that didn't quite make the cut for These Things Happen, which makes me even more excited for the album. If songs of this quality didn't meet the standards of the album, I can't wait to hear what did. The first is a cut featuring Skizzy Mars and Kyle, which couldn't even be bad if it tried.



The second is a solo track, but that doesn't make it any less dope. I won't try and hype these up any more, because I know you're going to check them out for sure. Enjoy em, and watch out for These Things Happen.

The Static - Dizzy X


It's been a little while since we've seen the name Dizzy X, but the kid is back at it, once again showing us his raw potential. This one's got a similar sound to something Joey Bada$$ might drop, and that's not a bad thing at all. Check it out above.

Jolly Rancher (Video) - Hassani Kwess ft. Uno Hype


I was driving to work the other day, had the iPod on shuffle, and this joint actually came on and it made me realize that I had completely forgotten how sick it was. Both Uno Hype and Hassani Kwess absolutely kill it. Well here it is a few days after that, and I get an email with a new set of visuals that the guys have put together for a track that I again, can't stop listening to, so there was no way I wasn't going to post it. I'll say the same thing I said when it first dropped (almost 2 years ago now), a sick beat with unreal flow from both Hype and Kwess. Check it out above, and if you missed it back then, you can cop it now.




Fly Off - Trey Palms

It's been a few months since we've heard from Trey Palms, but just like every other time he takes a minute between releases, it makes the new track just that much better. Fly Off is one of those tracks that I can see getting some serious buzz around the web, so if by some freak accident you're still not familiar with Trey, it's time to pay attention. Enjoy it.

On My Shoulders / Champagne Rain / Easy Child - Luke Christopher

A triple post for some new Luke Christopher, because somehow I managed to miss 3 separate #TMRWGANGTUESDAY drops. This first is his latest and I'll be honest, I wasn't really feeling it when it first dropped, but now that I've given it a few listens, I'm a big fan. Check out On My Shoulders below.


The next is his drop from last week, and it's actually my favorite of the three. I think it's because of the way he combines quick flow and his absolutely addicting vocals. Champagne Rain is below.



And finally the third track is from a couple weeks back. A little more laid back than the other two, but impressive as always. Enjoy it.

Nah I'm Talking 'Bout - G-Unit

The G-Unit reunion we've all been silently hoping for is finally here. 50, Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, Buck and Kidd Kidd sound at perfectly at home on this Grindin My Whole Life beat. G-G-G-G-Unit!

0 to 100 / The Catch Up - Drake

Not as good the previous drop from Drizzy (2 On / Thotful), but there was still no way I was about to let you miss out on it. Check it.

I Mean It (Video) - G-Eazy


These Things Happen is just over 2 weeks away (it drops June 23rd), and G-Eazy decided to tease us with another video/leak. I'll be real, I'm a huge fan of this one, but it's not exactly G's normal lyrical style. It reminds me a bit of Loaded because I get this vibe that it's meant to be almost a parody. Regardless, I can't wait until the album drops. Check out the video above.


Highrise - Trademark

I can honestly say that I think Trademark is one of my favorite mashup producers out there. He released this one early last week, but as per usual, I'm seriously behind the ball. Highrise is an amazing blend of some Afrojack, Cosmic Gate and East Freaks, and it's bound to make you feel fantastic from start to finish. Enjoy it.
