Ruins (EP) - Riley

The day has finally arrived. A great friend to HotLeaks, Riley dropped his latest project yesterday, and I just got a chance to enjoy it today. Ruins is a fantastic EP that really showcases Riley's talents as an artist. I have said it 100 times already, but Riley has such a great and original sound, his cadence is unmatched, and his flow is fantastic. My ONLY complaint about this EP is that it's a bit too short. Yes, I know it's an EP and it's meant to be short, but it just leaves me wanting more from him. Anyway, check out a couple of my favs, then go cop the entire Ruins EP. Enjoy it.

Psychobabble - Riley

Without You - Riley

All Or Nothing - Riley

I Will Always Love You (Timeflies Tuesday) - Timeflies

The first #TimefliesTuesday from the boys while they're on the road. I want to talk about the production on this one to start. It's so simple, yet amazing, so huge ups to Rob for that. Now, we all know Cal is the freestyle king at this point, but this time he manages to freestyle using sweet heart candies, which is pretty crazy. Anyways, check this out because I know you'll enjoy this one.

Cupid - Zak Downtown

It's been a minute since I've heard from Zak Downtown. He dropped this gem earlier today, which you can probably tell by the very appropriate name, and I just got a chance to sit down check it out. An amazing new track that is already stuck in my head. Zak has such a dope sound, so if your not familiar, you should definitely check him out. Don't miss this one.

Pretend We're In Love (Video) - Luke Christopher

Simple, yet elegant. That describes this video perfectly. This is a brand new video for Luke Christopher's track Pretend We're In Love off his latest, amazing, mixtape Building Skies. This is actually one of my favorite tracks off the mixtape, so when I saw that it had a video, I felt I needed to post it. Anyway, enjoy, and if you haven't yet, you need to check out Building Skies.

Count On It - Dunson

I hate to say it, but Dunson somehow manages to fly under my radar. I have no idea why but I know it's a sham, because he has such a great sound. I can tell you though, I will be watching a hell of a lot more intently after hearing this track, because Count On It is fantastic. This is actually his first drop off his upcoming mixtape, The Investment, which from the sounds of it will be pretty good. Anyway, enjoy this one.

Everything I Am (Video) - Tarik

Tarik dropped some brand new visuals a couple days ago, and I just got a chance to watch em tonight.A great video to accompany an amazing track off his T.R.I.G.S. mixtape. I have said it before, but Tarik is extremely underrated in the game right now. His flow is just so fluid and his lyrics are always so real and filled with emotion. Anyway, enjoy this one.

Valentine (Cut Me Loose) - Radical Something

Happy early Valentine's Day from Radical Something. The decided to drop this gem of a track, off their upcoming EP, No Sweat which is dropping the 26th. Valentine, in typical Radical Something fashion, is really enjoyable and extremely catchy. Definitely don't miss this one. Enjoy it.

Critic - Mike Stud

The always dope Mike Stud does it again with this track. Critic is a real smooth track from Mike all about, you guessed it, how everyone is a critic. I am so glad that I got turned onto Mike Stud, because to be honest, I did dismiss him when I first heard his stuff purely because it came off really cocky. But, Stud has grown a hell of a lot, and matured into a great artist since then, so I am a big fan now. A fantastic track from the King of Frat Rap. Enjoy it.

Heard About It - Ground Up ft. Freeway

With another drop off the upcoming tape, The Get Up, Ground Up hits gold once again. This time they team up with Freeway on a Jahlil Beats production and absolutely kill it. I am such a big fan of these guys, and with each new track I hear, the more I get excited for The Get Up. Enjoy it.

Quit Your Day Job (Mixtape) - Kam Royal

The wait is finally over. Kam Royal dropped his highly anticipated mixtape Quit Your Day Job yesterday, and it lives up to the hype. Overall, Kam does an amazing job on this mixtape, and really shows off his skills as an artist. He has wicked flow, fantastic lyrical content, and great cadence. Just an all around great artist. Definitely check this tape out, and enjoy it.

Thought You Knew (Prod. by Kid Vision) - Kam Royal ft. Julian Malone

Adderall Thoughts (Video) - Huey Mack

Huey Mack dropped the official visuals for his lyrically deep track, Adderall Thoughts, yesterday, and I am just getting a chance to check them out now. A great video that really encompasses the emotion of this one. Enjoy it.

Youth - The Dean's List ft.Sid Sriram

We finally get some brand new Dean's List, and it was well worth the wait. This is their first drop off their upcoming project, Generation X, and it's a hell of a way to start off. It reminds me a bit of their sound on their mixtape, Undeclared, which is pretty dope if you ask me. Anyway, enough of me talking about it, because I know your going to check it out. Enjoy.

Open - CJ Trillo

The first drop of 2012 from CJ Trillo (formerly Suck Free CJ), and it is really a great one. With production from FcukNormality, CJ gives us an amazing new track to start the year (from him at least). I have been a fan of CJ for a while now, so anything that he releases is great, but with this track, he has really cleaned up his vocals production wise, which is dope. An amazing track, from a fantastic (and really under-rated) artist. Enjoy this one.

Victim of a Wish - DJ 21azy

Another hot mix from DJ 21azy. This time he takes Victim of a Crime, I Wish and Shutterbug and creates a whole new, dope track. Enjoy it.

Keep It Lit - KA5UM

A perfect track for your Friday night. This is KA5UM's second mash and he absolutely kills it. He takes the tracks Set Fire To The Rain, Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall, and Axwell & Sebastian Ingrosso's Together (Thand Remix) and blends them gorgeously. Definitely one of my favorite mashes in a while, and a must for any rager tonight. Enjoy it.
