Rap | Larry June – Came Up (ft. IAMSU!) Prod. KiNG KiLO

Posted by on January 11, 2015

Really happy to be posting this one. Larry June, a dude who’s been making moves with 808Mafia and making a name for himself joins forces with IAMSU! to drop this trap banger. Produced by newcomer KiNG KiLO, its a hard Chicago drill sounding beat that works really well with the two flows. Good rhymes and a lot of bass, what more do you need? Enjoy.

Hip-Hop, Rap | EaSWay // Hoes Over Homies // Prod. Gregory Free

Posted by on January 8, 2015

EaSWay, the young talent out of LA, continues to drop more good vibes– a similar vibe to Skizzy Mars. The trance like production on this track makes it slow and vibey, a great slow jam with a purple feel, a la A$AP Rocky. Not to mention the dope artwork that comes with every one of his singles. Anyways, EaSWay’s flow throughout the verses continues to impress us all. Give this track a listen, throw it on your playlist, and light one up to this. Enjoy.

Hip-Hop, Rap, Videos | Timeflies Are In Love With The CoCo, But Not That “CoCo”.

Posted by on December 24, 2014

Tis the season for Timeflies to once again throw on those ugly sweaters and rock out to a less than expected viral jam.  Unlike years in the past, Timeflies turn up to the trap-rap hit of the fall, “CoCo”.  In typical Tuesday fashion, Cal and Rez spin O.T. Genasis’ street anthem into a family friendly Christmas jam.  Wait, what?  Essentially, if you were to replace every drug reference with a sweet, edible equivalent, you’d get the same result.  “BAKIN’ COOKIES, WE BE BAKIN’ COOKIES!”  Even the street slugs are going to be boppin’ to this one.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

P.S. Rez – that hat, though. >>>

House, Rap | Pusha T – Lunch Money (Sondrio Remix)

Posted by on December 15, 2014

I sometimes have this feeling where I kinda know that something is about to be massive, and I am having that feeling about Sondrio from Australia. I don’t know much about the rising star, but I know he is putting out smashes. It sounds like he took the Kanye West production and added another layer of Kanye to it. King Push probably didn’t ask for a dance record, but Sondrio brought the fire flames!

Hip-Hop, Rap, RnB | Premiere: Chris Smith Jr. – Don’t You Get Tired

Posted by on November 26, 2014

IMG_9477-2

For the amount of SoundCloud love that Chris Smith Jr. receives, it is almost alarming that he has not yet cracked the blog world. Today, that changes. His newest song “Don’t You Get Tired” is a hustlers anthem, packed with vibrant story telling and the infectious melodies that the St. Louis rapper consistently brings to the table.

Following up the release of his soft-spoken “Smellin’ Like A Re-Up“, Chris feeds fans addictions with a different side of his music, showing he is equal parts rapper and singer. “Don’t You Get Tired” is a single off of Smith Jr.’s upcoming project aptly titled Zero Fatigue. With Kendrick Lamar’s “i” still fresh in our minds, it’s great to see other artists returning to the feel-good, motivational place that music –hip-hop specifically– was one known for.

Production credits go to the righthand man, Montee Booker. Be on lookout for plenty more collaborations from the two in the near future!

Hip-Hop, Rap | Wara from the NBHD – Slangin [Video]

Posted by on November 23, 2014

In the day-and-age where OT Da Genesis and Stitches are transformed in to stars for their cocaine selling and usage, it’s refreshing to see at least a little sanity in music (and humans).

“You think I like crack, you think I like shootin’ n*ggas?”

A rhetorical question posed by Wara from the NBHD in his new video “Slangin” makes you wonder why we as a society have suddenly transformed selling drugs in to such a novelty. The Brooklyn-born emcee quickly snaps listeners back to reality, reminding us that this lifestyle is not one that many choose, but are rather forced in to out of necessity.

The video, shot by , takes you through a day in the life of a few kids trapped in this harsh reality.

If you have not listened to the rest of Wara’s most recent project, Kidnapped, check it out below.

Hip-Hop, Rap | NicX – The Sun (ft. 6lack)

Posted by on November 22, 2014

After catching my eye with the dark and aggressive “Merk”, NicX popped back on to my radar with a far more upbeat track alongside frequent collaborator, 6lack. The rapping tag team bring a vintage feel –heavily thanks to producer, Identity Withheld– while not recycling content from rap’s golden years.

Above all it’s the versatility that has piqued my interest. NicX sounds equally enticing on “The Sun” as he did on “Merk”, so it is anyones guess as to what he’ll bring to the table next time around.
