With what I’m expecting to be a banger of a single coming next week, Timeflies deliver yet another slow jam. This week’s installment, a cover of A Great Big World’s, “Say Something”. Like the New York made indie pop/rock duo, A Great Big World, Cal and Rez tackle this mellow piano ballad, but as always, they add an extra pinch of seasoning. Enjoy this one before they turn up next week with their brand new single, “All The Way”.

Sometimes Timeflies Tuesday is a new joint you can ride to. Sometimes it’s a tranquil track you can make babies (or non babies) to. Sometimes it’s both. This week Cal and Rez take on Passenger’s 2012 hit, “Let Her Go”. I’m not going to come out and say Cal has the voice of Passenger’s front man, Mike Rosenberg, but they do put one hell of a spin on this international chart topper.

Cover, Hip-Hop, Rap | Kid Slim & K.Weezy – Tour Van Jams
Posted by J_Salzer on November 2, 2013
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to see Kid Slim open up for Fresh New Tracks legend, SoMo. To put my experience lightly, it was cathartic. Kid Slim was an artist who I had contact with early in his career when his music was not blog-ready. To see his progression is one of the most fabulous things I’ve experienced. After I told him his music was not good enough to be on our site, I now tell you all that his music is quite good enough to be on this site. His latest mixtape, Freshman 15, was phenomenal, and his stage presence in undeniable.
One of my favorite segments from the show was when he and his DJ/producer K.Weezy, switched it up a little and hit the fans with a cover of “Best I Ever Had.” The girls, and myself, went crazy. K. Weezy did a phenomenal job on the strings and Kid Slim surprised everyone with a voice I would never have expected from the 6 foot 8 man. We have been blessed with a full version of their impromptu jam on last weeks edition of “Tour Van Jams,” which can be found above. If you’re in the mood for a couple of laughs, check out the cover of “I Like Big Butts” below. Kid Sim has come a long way, and he’s going to go a lot farther, so hop on while you can!

From everyone at FreshNewTracks, we congratulate SoMo on signing to Republic Records. It was never a matter of “if” it was just a matter of “when”. Shout out to Drew Kaklamanos!
I've officially signed with Republic Records and I'm extremely thankful for my fans who've made this dream possible. Thank you!

Following the same formula that catapulted SoMo into the spotlight, SoMo and company take on Drake’s “Nothing Was The Same” album to create a medley that’s nothing short of awesome.
