Sammy recently dropped the first single, “Blow Up”off his debut LP, since inking a major deal with RCA Records at Sony. A sprightly hook and verses his fans can relate to, Sam brings us back to the “I Hate College” days. Yes he has a fair amount of work to do to build himself back into the freshman that stunned the world with his debut EP release, but now with the proper tools in place I’m confident Sam’s going to be resurrecting his brand and reaching a new level of success. Sammy traced back his roots and found himself shooting this video in Allston, MA where he first started to “Blow Up”. Despite this being the first music video we’ve seen since “Still I Rise” with G. Curtis, this project encompasses every aspect necessary for national and international success and should kick start Boston’s Boy back onto the charts. No confirmed date yet for the album, but we can definitely expect a grade A projet in 2012.

Hip-Hop, Videos | Drake, Rihanna, Rick Ross, Nelly

25 sittin’ on 25 mil. Drizzy brings his batting gloves as he knocks the new visuals for “The Motto” out of the park. Fellow CMB members Lil Wayne and Tyga join the show, both delivering crisp verses over the rhythmic T-Minus production. The real question I have is WTF is Weezy wearing on his feet? Neon green casts? Snow boots? This is “swag” on a whole new level. #YOLO

The title track off Rihanna’s scorching new album, Talk The Talk, got the Bauce Sauce treatment. Not an official remix, but Ross adds a verse at the commencement of the track. Rozay confirmed that he’s been working on a new mixtape and will be revealing the title and release date by week’s end.

Nelly aiming to resurrect his radio presence? By the sounds of this new track, “Champion” off his next mixtape, Nelly appears to be looking to make a case for the mainstream. Fans can relate. The song will probably be picked up by a movie or sports commercial. 80’s baby’s will always love Nelly. Get ’em Megget!

Progressive House | Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike, Promise Land & Mitch Crown – Alarma
Posted by Middy on December 21, 2011
The Belgian duo, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike have combined with the Italian Duo Promise Land to give us this bomb, “Alarma” with Mitch Crown on the vocals. First previewed way back over the summer, “Alarma” was first scheduled to be released on Halloween with that packed release date, but got pushed back until the 19th. It has the heavy hitting synths you expect from Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike as well as the smooth piano builds from Promise Land. There is also the Miami 305 mix, which is a remix title that Promise Land uses a lot, which takes out the vocals. Get them on Beatport HERE.

Albums, Progressive House | Leventina – Revolution + Album Preview
Posted by Middy on December 19, 2011
Leventina is a Swiss duo who are ready to be take the scene by storm. I posted these guys before with one of my favorite songs of the past couple months, “We’re Gonna Start” and if that did not sell you on how good these guys are, these two songs should convince you. These are not standard progressive or electro house songs, there is a lot of creativity and energy in these songs that will separate these guys from other artists. They have an album coming out next year with an expected release date in March and I eagerly await its release. Check out the soundcloud preview below for a sneak peak at the first half of it. Get to know these guys, because they have what it takes to go big time. Get these tracks on Beatport HERE. Like them on Facebook & Twitter as well.

Hip-Hop, Rap | Kid Daytona f. Melanie Fiona – Love Is Love
Posted by GMONEY on December 13, 2011
Kid Daytona recruits R&B singer Melanie Fiona to supply the hook for his latest leak off his upcoming project Interlude II. Love Is Love is chill hip hop song with an extremely smooth hook. The Interlude II drops next Monday (12/19).
For those of you who haven’t heard of Kid Daytona yet he’s from The Bronx and has dropped three projects in his short career. Never settling for just good enough, 2010 saw The Kid Daytona align his potential with the cutting edge fashions of the popular clothing company L-R-G. No bigger payoff came as they collaborated on Daytona’s best release to date, “The Interlude LP.” As a disciple of Hip-Hop’s rich and sacred culture, Daytona felt like it was time to give fans hungry for more beef than broth “a break from what had become the norm.” Taking subtle interludes from storied albums from the likes of Kanye West, Pete Rock, A Tribe Called Quest and Dr. Dre. Download his previous project, The Interlude.
Albums, Hip-Hop, Videos | Ryan Leslie- Beautiful Life (Video)
Posted by GMONEY on November 30, 2011
As promised, Ryan Leslie takes us to Paris with sidechick ladyfriend in toe. There’s been considerable debate about Ryan Leslie’s skills as a MC, but from this track alone it’s apparent that he’s stepped up his lyrical content. “Beautiful Lie” serves as the first of eight promotional visuals that Ryan will drop leading up to his “Les Is More” project. Although there’s no date yet, this is a body of work I’m excited to hear in its totality. Ryan Leslie used to be the underdog, Ralph Macchio. Now you see him stuntin’ in the club with a Versace hoe. That’s what a degree from Harvard gets you. You don’t hear me though.
