Hip-Hop, Rap | Chance the Rapper – Bout A Dolla (ft. Chuck Inglish, Chip tha Ripper, and Twista) + Living in Vain
Posted by J_Salzer on August 7, 2012
Probably the longest title I’ve ever written. But that’s good for you guys, because it means you get TWO new Chance the Rapper tunes. Chance has been on fire lately, and has graciously dropped these two gems off to please his loyal followers. The first track, has 3 features from rapper’s who can all kill a track equally. But Chance shines and makes the track his bitch(am I allowed to say that?). Although, Twista’s verse(final verse) was incredible by any standards, the fact that he had to follow Chance made it tough for him to win my praise. The second track has a slower, more gospely feel. The beautiful crooing is done by Lorine Chia, and will be featured on her upcoming album. Grab both of the tracks for free below and make sure you follow Chance on twitter and like his facebook page

Indie, Pop, Preview, Videos | Connor Zwetsch – All of My Crazy (Video)
Posted by J_Salzer on August 5, 2012
Ah, beautiful girls and beautiful music, can it get any better? I’m sure most of you are shaking your heads while you read this so I’ll just pretend I can see you and get on with my post. Even though this video/track is about a month old, it was scarcely seen on the blogosphere due to unknown reasons, so let FNT be the ones to introduce you to singer/songwriter Connor Zwetsch. Connor hails from my hometown, Tampa, and has recently moved out to LA to pursue her singing endeavors. Admittedly, the video quality here isn’t what we’re used to seeing, but the music makes up for it. Connor’s gorgeous voice and enchanting looks have captivated me, and I hope she captivates you too. Peep the video above and show her some love on facebook below. Also, Connor is releasing an EP on iTunes in early September, so make sure you’re on the lookout for that, FNT will always get you the scoop.
Hip-Hop | Aaliyah Featuring Drake – Enough Said
Posted by J_Salzer on August 5, 2012
Well, here we are. After first learning that Drake would be using the great late Aaliyah’s musical creations as impetus for his own release, I was skeptical to say the least. It’ll be very tough for Drake to stay true to his own fans, while still trying to please loyal Aaliyah fans. It’s always a tricky subject to be toying with artist’s who can no longer speak for themselves, so when I first heard this track, I was skeptical to say the least. But with Drake’s own, Noah “40” Shebib, behind the boards, Aaliyah’s smooth vocals, and Drake delivering with his verse, I really don’t see a problem with this. In fact, I like it a lot. I found it interesting that both Drake and Aaliyah’s record label(who still has her musical rights) were represented in the album artwork. Well whatever, just enjoy the music.
Indie, Videos | Sid Sriram – Love Shine + Kickstarter Project
Posted by J_Salzer on August 2, 2012
Love Shine – An original by Sid Sriram from Sergio Enciso on Vimeo.
Something has been amiss in my blogging world. And I didn’t know what it was until Sid Sriram hit me up on facebook a couple of minutes ago. I realize I hadn’t posted his music in over 3 months, even though he’s currently my favorite singers in music right now(excluding Franky Oh). He came to me looking for help raising some money via Kickstarter, so I thought I would share it with all of you in hopes of SOME of you donating to help Sid’s cause. If he raises another few hundred dollars, he will be able to fund his next project, and that’ll make us all happy. If you don’t want to donate, then just peep the video above(something I missed in the 3 month hiatus) and enjoy Sid’s music.
Hip-Hop | Trey Palms – City Lights
Posted by J_Salzer on August 2, 2012
An artist I haven’t kept up with recently, Trey Palms, drops off a 5 minute track for our listening pleasure. His manager informed me that Fresh New Tracks was the reason Trey gained hype in the first place, so I found it fitting that we would be posting this track to help his trek to stardom. Trey showcases a few dope verses over an interesting upbeat instrumental with a sample from Aeroplanes. My favorite part is the chorus, and after Trey switches up his flow to show off some versatility. Grab the track below for free courtesy of Trey’s camp.
Chill, Exclusive, Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | Jetpack Jones – Afterburners 2: No Limits (FNT Exclusive Mixtape)
Posted by J_Salzer on July 30, 2012
Say what you want about this man’s music, but you can’t knock his hustle. Jetpack Jones is easily the hardest working MC I have ever had the pleasure of posting here on the great interwebs. He is constantly releasing FREE music for his fans and it is consistently at a high level. Afterburner’s 2 is no different. Bringing a classic Jetpack flow to the entire tape, he shows off his versatility with some faster paced tracks. Jetpack only works with the best producers, and his sound is always crisp and refreshing. Make sure you like his facebook page below to show him some love for constantly stocking your iTunes without having to pay $1.29.
Hip-Hop | Jetpack Jones – Reach
Posted by J_Salzer on July 23, 2012
After a bit of a Jetpack drought, the Lakewood native makes it rain on our ears. Reach has the classic Jetpack Jones vibe, with a positive message, and a steady flow throughout. This will be the last single off Afterburners 2, so make sure you grab this one to prepare yourself for what will be one of the hottest releases of the summer. Again, Jetpack always releases music to you guys for free, so show your appreciation by liking his facebook page below.
