Electro, Hip-Hop | Loggy – The Dream | Electro-Hop

Posted by on January 24, 2011

After the great feedback we received about Loggy’s last FNT debut (Teenage Dream as well as the Free To Be Remix), it only seemed fit for us to drop this gem on the world. Similar to Teenage Dream, this latest track features a fast paced electro beat backed up by strong verses and a catchy hook. Basically, if I didn’t know any better I’d say Loggy catered this project for FNT fans; it’s a straight up banger. For more tracks (including his mixtape) visit Loggy’s Bandcamp Page. Be sure to stay up to date on his whereabouts by following him on Facebook and Twitter too.

Albums, Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | CHILL RAP | Hoodie Allen’s “Dreams Up”

Posted by on January 18, 2011

Hoodie Allen, the New York based rapper and U-Penn graduate, has graced anxious fans with “Dreams Up,” a new single off his upcoming mix-tape, Leap Year. With lyrics like, “I can dream big, I can dream fast,” Hoodie’s new track demonstrates his classic style with an unconventional and up-beat sound.

I’m sure you’ve heard of Hoodie by now. Pep Rally, the mix-tape he dropped last September, transformed him into an online sensation. With over 17,000 likes on Facebook, Pep Rally had bloggers and fans begging for more.

Sampling Oh Land’s “White Nights,” Hoodie’s “Dreams Up” has, four months later, done it again. Although a release date for Leap Year has yet to be set, Hoodie constantly updates his Facebook with information and will surely let fans know soon.

Hip-Hop | HIP-HOP | Jamie Foxx, Khalifa, and Shaggy

Posted by on December 10, 2010

Here’s the official music video for Dr. Dre’s hit “Kush” which is rumored to be a cut off of his upcoming album, Detox. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, Dre is on the up and up. I’m confident that the album is going to be dope. The only doubt in my mind concerns the actual release date. In 2009 he claimed it would be out in 2010, now he’s saying we’ll see it in 2011. Lets just pray we end up seeing it during our lifetime.

Hip-Hop, Videos | Brothers From Another- No Shirt

BFA (one year anniversary) from Zac McConnell on Vimeo.

Since I’ve been away all weekend, I finally got around to checking my gmail this morning. As I turned down people left and right, slowly getting beaten down by the forces of musical mediocrity, I come across something genius in my inbox. I click on their site, come across their bio, and this is what I read.

It started at the beginning like anything else does. Just us living life with no sense of direction and an over heightened sense of wild abandonment.

To put things simply nothing ever happens unless you make it happen.

Finally, an artist with a concise dossier that holds your attention! Vuala! The video is directed by Zac McConnell and the track is produced by Justo. This is their official single off their upcoming EP, “Two Weeks Vacation” which does not have a release date yet. Although I don’t know much at this point, what I do know is that I’m looking forward to hearing more music from these polar opposites.

Hip-Hop | Swollen Members

Posted by on September 8, 2010

Swollen Members is a little-known group who enjoy a huge following in Canada but have never really been able to make the jump to a US audience. This duo consists of rappers Prevail and Mad Child and have been around the rap game for over a decade. Their most recent album, Armed to the Teeth, certainly wasn’t their strongest project to date, but I definitely think that their material is worth a little time with your ears..
