I Choose U (Kasum Remix) - Timeflies

Need a perfect track for your Friday night? My man Kasum's got you covered. After a long time in the mashup game, he's decided to diversify himself a little bit, and what a way to start. Kasum has taken on the radio hit I Choose U by a HotLeaks favorite, Timeflies, and has given it a whole new, unbelievably enjoyable feel. Seriously, don't sleep on this one. Enjoy it.

Operate (The Chainsmokers Remix) - ASTR

The Chainsmokers just keep moving their way up on my list of favorite producers. Their previous release, a fantastic remix of Say Lou Lou, has recently become one of the most played songs on my iPod, which is actually saying a lot, because I have a TON of songs on there. Anyway, this is their latest remix, and once again, I think they've absolutely nailed it. Check it out below.

Sober - Johnny Astro

Now here's a treat for your Thursday night. The always fantastic Johnny Astro has blessed us with a brand new release, the first off his upcoming project #TheSkyIsBroken. Now I've been a fan of Johnny Astro for quite some time now (the first song I posted of his was "Someday", which was back in December '11), so I feel like I can confidently say that he keeps gets better and better with each new project that he puts together. And it's not like he was bad to being with, because his starting point was actually pretty solid. That's why with this new track, I'm even more excited for #TheSkyIsBroken than I was before. Sober has some great lyrics and flow from Johnny, and a fantastic mellow and haunting beat. Don't miss out on this one, and be on the lookout for the upcoming tape.

F'N Right - Jon Connor ft. Freddie Gibbs

No way I was passing this one up. Jon Conner decided to leak a track off his upcoming project, Unconcious State, featuring the one and only baby faced killer, Freddie Gibbs. Both Gibbs and Conner's flows are absolutely on point, but really, would you expect anything less? Check it out.

Ride For My Nigga - YG ft. Jeezy & Rich Homie Quan

Ready for some hood shit? YG teams up with Jeezy (his new boss since signing to CTE) and Rich Homie Quan to give you just that. This sounds exactly like you think it would sound, so no surprises here. Enjoy.

We Can't Stop (Video) - Miley Cyrus


People keep hating on this one, but I still say that it's catchy as hell. Plus it now has a video that completely compliments Miley's new image. Enjoy.

Young And Beautiful (No Pets Allowed Remix) - Lana Del Rey

This is fantastic. No Pets Allowed has taken a gorgeous track from The Great Gatsby's soundtrack by Lana Del Ray, and given it a whole new, amazing feel. He adds some energy to it by mixing in some great chillstep, but still manages to maintain the relaxed and lofty feel of the original. Don't miss out.

Higher - Triy


I would now like to introduce you to Triy, a 22 year old artist out of Boston. Now to be honest with you, I really don't know that much about this guy, other than this his first single off his upcoming project, Unexpected Journeys. I can tell you one thing though: if the rest of his project sounds anything like this track, I will definitely be interested in it

Diamond Thrones - The White Panda

And it beings. It's only been a week since The White Panda dropped their amazing mash album Bearly Legal, and they've already released their first full length drop off of it. I give you Diamond Thones. It's actually one of  my favorites off the album, but that may be just because I'm a huge GoT fan. Anyway, enjoy it below, and if you haven't yet, you need to go download Bearly Legal.

Palm Trees - Flatbush ZOMBiES

Here's a dope new leak off Flatbush ZOMBiES' highly anticipated project, BetterOffDEAD. Erick Arc crates a lofty and haunting beat for Juice, Darko, and himself all to spit straight fire on. If you're not down with the beast coast yet, it's time to get familiar. Don't sleep on this one.

Wake Me Up - Avicii ft. Aloe Blacc

I am addicted to this track. In case you didn't know this little fact about me: I was raised a country/folk music boy. It wasn't until junior high school that my love for hip hop really started to bloom. That being said, at any one of my family gatherings, you are without a doubt going to hear country or folk music on in the background (if someone isn't already playing it themselves on the guitar of course). So now you might understand why I am so inclined to love this track as much as I do. Now keeping in mind this new track from Avicii probably won't get the same play time as levels, I can still guarantee that you'll hear it spun more than a few times. Check it out below, and prepare to have it on repeat.

Zion - Donnie Trumpet ft. Chance The Rapper & Vic Mensa


Here's a fantastic new track from Donnie Trumpet, where he's decided to put his own melow spin on Lauryn Hill's classic track To Zion with a little help from Chance The Rapper and Vic Mensa. Now I know what you're thinking: "Who the hell is Donnie Trumpet?", but I can assure you, you already know him, even if you don't recognize his name. Last month, it was announced that the group Kids These Days was separating. A couple weeks later we found out that Vic Mensa, the rapper of the group, had broken out and had started to do his own thing (check out Orange Soda if you haven't yet). That brings me to my main point: Donnie Trumpet is actually another fantastic former member of KTD, and has decided to keep doing his thing and creating gorgeous music. Well I for one am happy to continue listening, especially when he creates tracks like this. Enjoy this one. Zion - Donnie Trumpet ft. Chance The Rapper & Vic Mensa

Made To Love - John Legend

Simply put, listening to John Legend just feels good. Now although there's nothing really extraordinary about the depth of the lyrics on this one (it pretty much just repeats itself the entire track except for a 20 second bridge verse), but you can't deny that it's still really enjoyable to listen to. Check it out below.

U.O.E.N.O (Remix) - Pretty Boy Cuv


I introduced you to Pretty Boy Cuv almost a month ago with his original track All I Need, but in case you didn't pay attention then, here's him flexing on a beat that you might recognize. Now I said it last time, but I'll say it again, this kid's got a ton of talent. His flow is swift and hard hitting and his lines are smart. It actually reminds me a bit of Logic's older stuff, which is pretty huge. Check it out, and be on the watch for more. U.O.E.N.O (Remix) - Pretty Boy Cuv
