Cover, Videos | Of Monsters and Men – Little Talks (Connor Zwetsch Cover)
Posted by J_Salzer on July 16, 2013
FNT favorite and veteran postee Connor Zwetsch gives us her latest cover. She’s turning this into a routine on Sunday’s and I don’t think I could love it more. Most of the covers posted on music blogs are popular, mainstream songs, but Connor chooses more low key songs, that show off her vocal ability. This week’s cover is a Monsters and Men hit, and Connor does it justice, and although I’ve never loved the original song, Connor’s version entrances me. Check out the video above and be on the lookout for more Connor coming on Sunday’s.

Hip-Hop | Jetpack Jones – Golden Skeletons (Feat. James Joseph)
Posted by J_Salzer on July 10, 2013
FNT favorite and faithful Jetpack Jones dropped a gem about 10 days ago but I missed it, surprising, I know. It has less than one thousand plays, so you will all still be among the first to hear it, which I’m sure your ecstatic about. Golden Skeleton’s is featuring James Joseph, who was also featured on my favorite Jetpack release of all time, Solar. James has a knack for creating catchy hooks and his entrancing voice always leaves you wanting more. Jetpack’s verses are solid as always, as his consistency is something I’ve come to love in a world where every rapper has a copycat flow. Check out the track below and be on the lookout for the full Beyond Infinity project dropping soon.
Hip-Hop, Rap | No Trace – The Wakeup Call (Mixtape)
Posted by J_Salzer on June 26, 2013
Be weary folks, I am in fact posting a mixtape by two 16 year old rappers. I know that’s an immediate turn off for most of you, and I respect that, but if you can, lend your ears to the two youngesters not legally allowed to buy a pack of cigarettes from 7/11. The duo of No Trace has released their sophomore effort, which is perfect because they are also sophomores in high school. Now when you listen through this tape, which I would reccomend, be aware that some of their music might hit you as a tad immature or boyish, but that’s because they’re just that. Forget the lack of beautiful album artwork and other aesthetics and just listen to the raw talent of these kids. These two 16 year olds are setting themselves up for a rap career, the potential is there, and they will likely be cashing in on it in the years to come. So grab the mixtape below and be on the lookout for these two making moves.

Posted by LoffyG on June 17, 2013
It’s Monday and Huey Mack delivers the lastest installment in his #HueSummer series. This week he remixes “Crazy Kids“, originally performed by Ke$sh ft. Will I Am. After dropping a more personal track called “Letter” last week, Huey livens things up a bit with this song. The video showcases tour footage from the Barstool U foam party in PCB, as well as various past shows. Check back next week for another new release and lookout for Huey’s new album expected this Fall!
Hip-Hop, Videos | Lucki Eck$ – Everything Out$ide
Posted by dshaq on June 3, 2013
“I could never get stained, I’m like your special outfit”
Lucki Eck$ is an emerging Chicago rapper that has a very interesting sound that blends an east coast and Chicago sound together. A very slow tempoed, clams casino-esque beat that allows Lucki to spit some very good wordplay over. A lot of promise from Lucki and the rest of the emerging rap scene in Chicago, so be on the lookout for more to come.
Chill, Hip-Hop, Rap | Jetpack Jones ft. James Joseph – Solar (Prod. Brock Berrigan)
Posted by J_Salzer on May 23, 2013
Fresh New Track’s favorite emcee, Jetpack Jones, hits us with his latest masterpiece, Solar. Solar is different than most Jetpack tracks, but instead of leaving you all to struggle trying to find out what that special something is, I’ll just tell you. Jetpack recruited a singer to sing his hook. Usually, Jetpack sings his own hooks, but I think that this is a nice change up and let’s him focus on purely rapping. “Solar” is my favorite Jetpack track to date, and I’m sure his upcoming mixtape, Beyond Infinity, will have plenty of songs just like this for me to vibe to. Grab the track for free courtesy of the man and be on the lookout for the next single off of “Beyond Infinity”
