Hip-Hop, Rap | GoldLink – Ay Ay (Video)
Posted by admin on April 30, 2014
After the successful release of his genre-bending project, The God Complex, GoldLink has debuted the first video for the song “Ay Ay”. Classified as a “future-bounce stripper anthem,” the video combines some serious booty-shaking with a mini-plot line. The video was directed by Nathan R. Smith, and is the second strong visual release from him and GoldLink in the past month.
Check out the video above, and be sure to grab The God Complex here, if you haven’t already.
Exclusive, Pop | King Deco — Tigris EP & Interview

Amidst this facile pop culture climate—in which producers and writers alike have problematically concluded that lucrativeness follows the more nugatory and hollow creations—an artist with a clear identity and sound is at once both palpable and powerful. Hence, my enthusiasm for King Deco. A month after releasing her EP’s lead single, “One”, the full project is here, adding two mesmeric and lushly-produced tracks in “Laila” (produced by Adam Pallin) and “Ocean” (produced by Cobra Starship’s Ryland Blackinton & One Love), as well as a Kinetics verse with every bit as much of the intricateness and carefully-crafted lyricism we’ve come to expect from the astute rhymer. What is most compelling, though, about King Deco’s project, is how much depth and weight this project bears in just three songs. She excels at combining lyrical tension with her softening, tranquil harmonies, and ultimately leaves us craving a more ample dose of her world. Luckily, we don’t have to wait long, with her Euphrates EP release around the corner. For more, we spoke to the talented songstress herself:

Pop | Galantis – EP
Posted by BIGLIFE on April 1, 2014
Galantis. They’re so hot right now. Dropping singles left and right. Premiering their EP on Billboard. Making tracks on some random island. Big Beat Records is really onto something. It’s not big room or progressive house, but it feels epic. It has integrity. It’s not mindless. I just really like it. No wonder Kaskade is involved in the project. How, I’m not sure. I’ve just heard rumblings. Today, their “EP” released and we can’t stop listening to it. Don’t take my word for it, listen below.

Hip-Hop | Chance The Rapper & The Social Experiment – Home Studio (Back Up In This B***H)
Posted by dshaq on March 26, 2014
I think it’s funny when people start listening to Chance and are all like “YOO have you heard this Chance the Rapper guy?! He’s so dope like all of his music is tight”. Chance’s reach has hit full effect and he is one of the hottest MC’s on the rise and I couldn’t be any happier for him. After Acid Rap and 10Day, it’s very refreshing to hear new sounds from Chance to hold us over until the next anticipated project. Home studio features a different type of Chano flow, that similar to Vic’s “Feel That”, and if it’s any indication on where his sound might be going then it can only go up from here. Holler at the song below & SAVEMONEY.

Posted by BIGLIFE on March 24, 2014
Hip hop has been struggling lately with new talent, but watch out, Toronto native Sean Leon is making a statement for 2014.
After releasing his project, “narcissus, THE DROWNING OF EGO”, he plans on releasing a slew of new music in 2014 and taking the industry by storm. I honestly feel bad for downloading this for free, it is that good.
Make sure you DL the project here and look out for Sean Leon:

Hip-Hop, RnB | High Hopes – Phases

It’s an easy Saturday night, I’m checking out my boy K-Woody‘s latest single “No More” and SoundCloud continuously streams me to “Wherever You Are” and I’m immediately captured by Shannon Livewell’s vocals and K-Woody’s laidback ‘talk to’em’ flow. Yes, I’ve been sleeping on this project. Entirely tracked and mixed in Nashville, TN “Phases” is some real shit, no other way to put it, and that’s why it’s good. With productions by Nate Fox, Ghost Notes, Big K.R.I.T., and more, this is a solid album which deserves your attention. I’m going to let you feel this one. This is a must listen. Peace!
