Sammy recently dropped the first single, “Blow Up”off his debut LP, since inking a major deal with RCA Records at Sony. A sprightly hook and verses his fans can relate to, Sam brings us back to the “I Hate College” days. Yes he has a fair amount of work to do to build himself back into the freshman that stunned the world with his debut EP release, but now with the proper tools in place I’m confident Sam’s going to be resurrecting his brand and reaching a new level of success. Sammy traced back his roots and found himself shooting this video in Allston, MA where he first started to “Blow Up”. Despite this being the first music video we’ve seen since “Still I Rise” with G. Curtis, this project encompasses every aspect necessary for national and international success and should kick start Boston’s Boy back onto the charts. No confirmed date yet for the album, but we can definitely expect a grade A projet in 2012.

Dubstep | ill.Gates vs Die Antwoord, Cryptex, and HULK
Posted by Mach on December 7, 2011
Today ill.Gates made a post on facebook saying that if that post hit 1,500 likes, he would drop a free track. 2 hours later he was shocked to see that he was well over the likes needed, and just dropped this sick collaboration with South Africa’s Die Antwoord. They even put together a little music video to go with the free track.

Cryptex, the producer who brought us the first Lean Back dubstep remix and many others, dropped this glitch-hop gem today. The original of this track was already awesome, Cryptex made it better.

HULK post a preview of this track on his soundcloud right before the official remixes of Sunlight dropped. I assumed that it was included, obviously it wasn’t. As most of HULK’s tracks are, I thought it was going to be another one of his tracks we can never have. Thank God I was wrong again.

Dubstep, Electro | Robotic Pirate Monkey – Colors In Disguise (Free Album)
Posted by Mach on December 5, 2011
This isn’t the first time I have posted a full masterpiece from Robotic Pirate Monkey, but it might be the first one that people actually catch on to. We posted up the crazy woods murder music video of Party Animal a few weeks ago. Since then I have been patiently waiting for this release. Robotic Pirate Monkey dropped this just a few hours ago on their website and not a second too soon. Pretty Lights style has been utilized by many different artists over the past year, but only Robotic Pirate Monkey seems to stand out as the most creative, especially with this album. Every track on here is a musical masterpiece. If you like Pretty Lights you are going to LOVE this.

Videos | PropaneLV – Lights On (Music Video)
Posted by Jess on December 4, 2011
And so the story goes.. one afternoon a few weeks ago, the guys at Nasty, LLC gave PropaneLV and crew a call and said something to the tune of “we’ve got a dope house in the west hills for an evening, wanna shoot a music video?”. PropaneLV, not known for ever saying no, of course agreed. DJ Frank-DuX laced PropaneLV a beat, he laid down a party record, invited all ten of his friends for a party and the rest is history.
Contests | Jon Kilmer’s Music Video Contest!
Posted by GMONEY on December 1, 2011
At the beginning of November, we launched the Jon Kilmer’s Music Video Contest, in promotion of his upcoming free beats mixtape, Sheeps Jeeps and Beats, which drops Christmas morning. The premise of the competition was to find out who could spit the most insane 16 bars over Midnight Rider, the first leak off the mixtape. The winner of the competition receives a free music video shot, directed, and edited by the man himself. After receiving over 100 submissions over the past 30 days, Jon needed to call in some reinforcements for the judging process…watch the video for all of the juicy details.
…and without further adieu, hit more to reveal the winner.
