Hip-Hop, Rap | ChristianDeeLA – “Thurzdey.” (Prod. By Canis Major)
Posted by VMan on September 5, 2013
Louisiana MC Christian’Dee make his debut on FNT with “Thurzdey” produced by Canis Major. I’ve been following this MC since I was introduced to the NWLA movement by the homie Joe Cool. One track I fux with hard from Christian is a video he dropped a couple months back “Yo Rappin Ass” I’m not sure if “Thurzdey” will end up on his project “Subtle Weekends,” due for Winter release, but either way Christian’ smart but real rap is refreshing, and exactly what the game’s been missing. If you’re a fan of Logic, Devin Miles or Tayiib Ali, you’re going to like Christian’Dee. Stream this record, and get familiar with the movement! Must Listen!

A week and change after releasing the audio for his first single, which was also the official debut from Wyclef’s indie label All Handz On Deck, the San Fran native shares the visual set for “Dazed and Confused”. The intro had me questioning the direction of the video – dudes wearing pig masks, c’mon you didnt? – but soon after, the hog heads only solidified the songs message. Dazed and Confused, who can’t relate?

Events | Size In The Park Expands to 2 Days, Tickets Now On Sale
Posted by Middy on August 6, 2013
After a successful, but rainy and quiet debut to Size in the Park last year, Steve Angello’s Size Matters returns to Central Park in New York City for a second year. This time they have expanded from just one day, to almost a two day festival format. No word on the lineup yet, but I would be willing to bet that it would be some people from Size. Just a shot in the dark, not totally sure though.
Going for the outdoor gig in late September is a bold maneuver because it could get pretty cold at night, especially if it is rainy, but bold choices can pay off. More info at the Size In The Park website here. Tickets are on sale now a few days early, though pre-sale tickets sold out in the blink of an eye.

Events, Progressive House | Vicetone – Tremble
Posted by Middy on August 5, 2013
Vicetone caught the attention of the internet almost immediately, and a lot of big name DJs right after, but none as strongly as Nicky Romero. They have done label releases before, such as “Stars”, but none as big as this, as they make their label debut on their new home, Protocol Recordings. The Dutch duo take a page out of label boss, Nicky Romero’s playbook with the emotive, string-led interlude, surrounded by their powerful guitar-like synths that really give the track that Vicetone flavor. Right after E Zoo, they will be touring North America with Nicky Romero on his “Nothing Toulouse” tour, which you can find the dates after the jump. Tickets are on sale here.

Posted by dshaq on July 26, 2013
A little while ago I posted Lucki Eck$’ video, Everything Out$ide, a song that really put Lucki on a lot of people’s radars, but today, we receive his debut mixtape and it’s a must download. With a flow comparable to Joey Bada$$, Lucki Eck$ definitely has the makings of a star. Peep the tape below and make sure to download it as well. Be on the lookout for this kid down the line, you’ll be hearing a lot more of him.
