Electro, Hip-Hop | New From The Pretty Lights Music Label: Paul Basic & SuperVision

Posted by on September 3, 2011

After the addition of Gramatik to the Pretty Lights Music Label, they have added two more to announce the release of new albums. Paul Basic drops a new track with samples from the ever famous “Daydream,” made more famous by Lupe Fiasco. SuperVision gives us a great instrumental track, with the classic style Pretty Lights is famous for. I would like to point out that everyone under this label sounds the same, slightly disappointing but only the future will tell us if they can be original with it. Paul Basic’s album “The Mirror” and SuperVisions album “Telescopic” both release on September 27th. Check out these guys and the rest of Pretty Lights music crew on their WEBSITE.

So rumor has it that Lupe was originally supposed to be on Airplanes, but the high executives at Atlantic Records gave it to Bobby Ray, just like they did with Nothing On You. I’m gonna go ahead and assume that he was pretty pissed about that…

The beat to this song is awesome, it has a slight old school West Coast feel to it…not to mention that Game and Breezy kill it.

Here’s a collaboration that I’m sure a lot of you have been waiting to see for a while now. For now we only have the unfinished version, but rumor has it that Cee Lo Green or Janelle Monáe will be on the final cut.

A few days ago, I received a Facebook message which contained the photo posted above. The caption read: “Imitating images of SweetE on a beach in Jamica.” This kid clearly has his mind right…thinking of SweetE while simultaneously repping Fresh New Tracks in paradise (#winning).

Lupe Fiasco has attracted plenty of attention lately with “Lasers.” He’s spoken out against his label, Atlantic Records, in many interviews. In an attempt to quell Lupe’s artistic creativity, Atlantic instructed him to, “Not rap too deep.” “I am a hostage,” Lupe noted in an interview with the Chicago-Sun Times. “I gave them [Atlantic Records] what they wanted. If I didn’t, at the end of the day the album wasn’t coming out.”

Lupe has received wide support for remaining vocal about such frustrations. XV has shown his own support for Lupe’s “Lasers” by releasing a freestyle track in which he goes hard over Lupe’s “Words I Never Said” instrumental. XV will open for Wiz Khalifa, Lupe Fiasco and Cee Lo Green at SXSW on March 17th.

BONUS SPRING BREAK TRACK:

Spring Break is just around the corner. If you’re headed to Panama, or need another cheesy track to go along with your daily dose of binge drinking, download the track below. With lyrics like: “If you’re gunna’ black out, drink what’s in your glass now, do it till’ you pass out–live it up in Panama,” you know it’s a Spring Break anthem.

Two dope tracks that stand at opposite ends of the spectrum as far as style goes. “Lasers” is coming together to be one hell of an interesting album – check out this article about Lupe’s reaction to the negative reviews…pre order it HERE

Lupe leaked yet another cut off of his highly anticipated project, “Lasers”. In this track which he’s calling his “favorite record ever,” Lupe imagines a world that is absent slavery and racism. Listen to the song carefully, it’s packed with a punch.

Talk about an all-star line up. The features on this mixtape are pretty impressive, although a few songs are just Travis Barker remixes, and the Whoo Kid tags are annoying. Nonetheless if you’re into the badass drums, and like the tracks below, then you should pick up this mixtape.

If you can look past the DJ Whoo Kid tag at :53, this song is actually real good.

We posted this track back in December, but this is still one of my favorite songs off the mixtape.
