Hip-Hop, Videos | Yelawolf – Let’s Roll ft. Kid Rock (Music Video)
Posted by Jess on January 11, 2012
I’ve been waiting for this video for a minute now and it’s finally here. In my opinion, “Let’s Roll” will be Yelawolf’s break out hit as it has Top 40 written all over it. The video for it was filmed in Gadsden, Alabama and The Bronx, New York, and also features a cameo appearance by hip-hop pioneer DJ Kool Herc. With production from The Audibles, Mr. Pyro, and Eminem and an amazing hook from Kid Rock, it is hard for me to see this song not being huge.
Hip-Hop, Rap | iRep D-League – Music Is Amazing
Posted by GMONEY on January 3, 2012
Urban Noize team up with iRep D-League on this track to create a soulful & feel good track that just about anyone who appreciates hip hop music will enjoy. I’m still looking into iRep D-League, but the verses supplied by Demo & Uncut (the members of iRep D-League) are very solid. The third verse is awesome and explains how the two met and their friendship was formed. If you like this track, you can download their latest EP Life Up.

Christmas got the best of me this past week. While I should have been supplying a daily dosage of hip-hop to my FNT faithful, I’ve been eating my grandma’s cookies, drinking my dads beer, and buying 1/2 priced Christmas candy (Cherry Cordial Hershey Kisses, sleeper candy) . So rather than flooding you with ten separate posts, I’ll keep it short and sweet and fire off all the tracks you’ll want, that you may have missed.

Hip-Hop, Pop | Jared Evan – Traffic Light (Prod. By !llmind)
Posted by Jess on December 31, 2011
Jared Evan has always been interesting artist to me. He has never fit in any one genre and that is probably why I like him so much. His music ranges from Hip Hop, Pop, and Rock and yet always has a consistent feel to it. His latest single “Traffic Light” is no exception. The track will be featured on his upcoming EP that will be produced entirely by !LLMIND and Ill Factor dropping the 1st quarter of 2012.
Hip-Hop | BLU & EXILE – Give Me Flowers While I Can Smell Them [Full Album Stream]
Posted by W8 on December 19, 2011
Blu is the most under-rated rapper of his time and one of the very few still left painting this language with color. Blu, if you let him will amalgamate your thoughts together for an explosion of sophisticated wisdom, a firm reminder that we haven’t lost all our lyricists just yet. Hip Hop has been consumed by senseless lyricism, candy electro beats and worst of all – generations to come have only this garbage to draw inspiration from. Artists such as Blu fly so far out from the boundaries of mainstream music, they occupy another dimension of lyricism. They remain significantly unknown because there’s not enough of us to relate to such genius, only few are privileged to know it exists. Moral of the story – it takes one to know one.
Now what should deeply astonish you is the relevancy of this video above, not only does Blu rap but he’s also a phenomenon in motion art. That video is one of his many masterpieces symbolizing his godlike patience. One of the best videos you will ever watch in this lifetime, I guarantee it.
Electro-House, Videos | Paper Diamond – Better Things
Posted by Middy on December 16, 2011
Paper Diamond released his latest single from his upcoming EP “Paragon” set to release in 2012 yesterday and it is fantastic. As described by Paper Diamond it is a “hip-hop tempo banger, with glitchy rhythms and buildups that crash down into melodic bleeps and bloops. It’s a fun listen that is simultaneously unexpectedly poignant, somehow employing those beats to call forth an emotion that you’d completely forgotten you could experience.” He is on a Winter Tour of the US now and is doing a whole bunch of shows in January and February, so don’t miss out on this opportunity. Above is some sick concert footage from this fall.

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.
