Posted by BIGLIFE on February 14, 2015
Dubbed one of the most controversial (ridiculous if you ask me) tracks of 2015, Play-N-Skillz recruit Chicago based Jump Smokers, legendary rapper Krayzie Bone, Scott Summers, and Dainjazone to put their spins on their Party Rock released viral record. Currently working on The Black Eyed Peas album in LA, Play-N-Skillz are releasing a steady stream of content in 2015, as they continue to work with the biggest artists in the world. Keep an eye on Play-N-Skillz. I predict they’ll have a big year.

2014 was a huge year for Chicago born rapper and FNT regular Mayo and it appears 2015 is going to be no different. In a genre overcrowded with artists jumping on sampled beats and recycling hooks from yesterday, Mayo has constantly provided extremely original music and unique, yet epic, collaborations. In his latest collab, Mayo teamed up with Australian DJ/Producer Akouo and Indie artist Monsoonsiren. In this extremely unique collab the trio successfully creates a sound that truly brings aspects of their respected genres to life.

Really happy to be posting this one. Larry June, a dude who’s been making moves with 808Mafia and making a name for himself joins forces with IAMSU! to drop this trap banger. Produced by newcomer KiNG KiLO, its a hard Chicago drill sounding beat that works really well with the two flows. Good rhymes and a lot of bass, what more do you need? Enjoy.
Hip-Hop | Stevie Wonder Ft. Chance The Rapper – Lucki Eck$ (Prod. Young Chop)
Posted by dshaq on December 14, 2014
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chop squad. I eventually knew that Chance and Lucki Eck$ would be releasing some music together, seeing as they are two of the biggest faces of Chicago rap at the moment. But once I saw that “Young Chop” on the bottom I knew what was in store already before even listening to it. Whether its the eery chop squad intro that completely captivated me, or the slow beat that Chance’s words just effortlessly flow over, the song provides something fresh and different. Even with enlisting top tier talent on his song, Lucki holds down his part very very well. The whole aura of the song really embodies Lucki and the sound he has been creating with his first two mixtapes. Keep this one on repeat, cause it definitely will be hard not to keep listening to. Be on the lookout for more music from Lucki and Chance soon.
