As I was listening to New York’s Power 105.1 radio station this morning, I heard The Breakfast Club spin “600 Benz,” a track exclusively given to the station by Wale, Rick Ross and Jadakiss. In the video posted above, Ross speaks about Maybach Music Group’s Self Made, which drops May 24th. While he touches bases on the recently released remix of his track “9 Piece,” which now features Lil Wayne, he additionally notes that fans should expect more new music dropping this week (in preparation for the release of Self Made).

The radio stream for “600 Benz” has been posted below. “9 Piece” and “Tupac Back,” a Meek Mill track featuring Rick Ross, have also been posted for download.

The original is a cut off of Rick Ross’ mixtape “Ashes to Ashes” which dropped a couple months ago. This time around they’ve added Wale to flip the track a bit – definitely restored the novelty of the original track for me. As a bonus I’ve included a new Pitbull track that’s not as club oriented as his usual tracks.

Above: J Cole talks about Jay-Z rejecting his CD, OUCH. Below: Eminem unrolls yet another record on us and while I’m not feeling this one as much as some of his other works, it definitely earned a spot in my iTunes library. I’m hearing a lot of chatter out there regarding Em’s latest collab with Dre and Jay-Z. In fact it seems as though mostly everyone’s trying to figure out how Ca$his made it onto the allstar track, “Syllables”. The Shady Records artist discusses recording the track back in 2007 in a recent interview with Vibe Magazine commenting, “‘Syllables’ was cut a couple of years ago…I think it was going to be for one of Em’s albums or Detox.” Is he insinuating that both of those are history aka Detox isn’t happening? He better not be. Ca$his claims “I was more so excited than intimidated because I already had held my own with Em, and I think they believed in me this time. After I kicked my verse, Em, Dre, and 50 all said it was dope. That was the cosign I needed. I learned more from that session than any other before that.” Read the full post here.

Of all the new tracks posted below, “Free To Be” is easily my favorite and yet Loggy is the least well-known artist of the bunch. Sure, he’s on an Akon beat, which as we said in the past doesn’t hurt, but his vibe compliments the big feature flawlessly. Has this wave of semi-professional college artists poisoned my ears, or am I right on this one?
LOGGY – Free To Be feat. Akon (Remix) (4.5 Stars)

Black And Yellow seems to be the hottest hook and beat in the remix scene right now. Here’s another impressive one, our Wale fans should dig this one.
Wale – Mike Tomlin (Black & Yellow Freestyle) (4 Stars)

Interesting take on this solid beat – be on the lookout for a filthyy remix by Collin Mcloughlin.
Teairra Mari – Deuces (Remix) (4 Stars)

N.E.R.D. – Nothing On You (3.5 Stars)

Busta Rhymes – 80’s Baby (Feat. Wyclef Jean) (3.5 Stars)

Hip-Hop | Yo Gotti – Look in the Mirror (rmx) f. Wale, J. Cole & Wiz Khalifa

In the words of f2dd, this is a “crack track”. As a bonus, I added Slim Thug’s new underwhelming single.

If I were you, I would watch this. Below is not the final version, just an artist who watched the video today and ripped the beat from the video (which is crazy). The final version will feature Wale. Shout out to Jess Messenger. We’re glad we could get you through your summer.
