Hip-Hop | The Dean’s List – The Drive In | HIP-HOP
Posted by BIGLIFE on February 26, 2011
Hot damn, this is one impressive project. Like I don’t think it’d be out of this world to give this a spot in our top 10 mixtapes for the year. Evidently The Dean’s List has mastered the art of rapping over perfectly produced beats that host some unreal vocals. Hopefully I won’t be the only one who picks up on the advanced spitting techniques these guys are utilizing to keep the songs fresh and professional. I could probably post the entire tape but that’d take the fun out of getting “The Drive In” in its entirety.

Electro, House | Yves Larock – Say Yeah (Rivaz Biglife Edit) | Electro/House
Posted by BIGLIFE on February 21, 2011
At this point I’ll pretty much take any opportunity to post a Yves track. His house productions are driven by African-influenced vocals that seem to be matched by very few artists, especially nowadays. More producers should be digging into their archives and flipping tracks like these; I may not remember the last guy who remixed Black and Yellow, but I will certainly remember Rivaz from this banger. If you liked my Paradise post from earlier in the week (see: here), you’ll undoubtedly dig this track.

Electro, House | Hardwell, Liam Keegan, Nadia Ali & More | Electro Bangers

(Note: This post was lost in the transfer so I’m reposting it) Warning this video has absolutely nothing to do with the post aside from being almost as dirty as these tracks. Guys, ever wondered what you look like checking out a girls bum bum? Tune in. I never realized that girls size one another up this much…
These two DJ’s have been pumping out some serious heaters as of late. This Hardwell January release is no exception and neither is Keegan’s take on Gaga’s new track “Born This Way” so give them an ear if you’re looking for a new electro party track.

If Nadia Ali doesn’t ring a bell, it’s time to get familiar. She’s Avicci’s version of Kaskade’s Haley… sort of… Maybe it’d be better to describe her as the Canadian version of Haley. At any rate, she serves as the perfect ingredient for any progressive track sporting vocals.

UPDATE: Alright FNTers here’s the scoop: Unfortunately a number of issues sort of culminated into one big breakdown leaving us paralyzed for the past several days which seemed like an eternity. It sort of felt like I had just been dumped by a girlfriend. This post is for all those people (myself included) who are in need of a beachside vacation… For the record I skipped all my classes for the fans and Gmoney pretty much sacrificed his job for everyone, thats how much we love you.
Some of these are previously posted tracks that helped me weather this 5 day storm.

Hip-Hop | Brenton Duvall and Split Second | Hip-Hop/Pop
Posted by BIGLIFE on February 17, 2011
Not much to say here folks, just doing a little bit of catch up with some FNT fan favorites. Brenton Duvall chopped it up with me this past weekend so I had to give him the headliner on this post. Check out the dope video done by Chris Taylor, it provides some insight about the song while also illustrating young Brents talents.
Brenton Duvall – Blow the Skrilla (Too $hort)
Split Second continues to explore electronic music in their latest installment of the weekly “Skub Til Taget (Push The Roof)” feature.
Hip-Hop, Reggae | McWorm – “Be Free” and “The Intro” | Chill Rap
Posted by BIGLIFE on February 10, 2011
Here’s an interesting story covered by CBS News in DC about the rapper featured in this post who balances his hip hop career with a passion for politics. It even touches upon the new nature of the music industry, a topic that our FNTers know all too well. Check the video if you have some free time. Otherwise skip right ahead to the soulful and chill rap tracks below. I’m really digging Cisco’s vibe, it’s a welcomed change of pace in my music library. Definitely give these an ear. I can’t decide which one I like more, so sound off in the comments section or chatbox. Stay tuned to Skillful Methods to catch the EP release in March.
