Independent interview series “Music Talks” is back with their second interview linking up with one of the worlds hottest DJs. After debuting the Music Talks series with an exclusive Mac Miller interview, the crew was able to land a chair next to Mr. Bergling and discuss everything from his personal favorite song, to blondes & brunettes, to the apparent new game of “flip cup”. It’s not often we see interviews with Avicii, especially ones that touch on his personal side. The kid may not know how to play flip cup just yet, but it’s fair to say he’s got a decent understanding of this music thing.

Hip-Hop | Wiz Khalifa – Goin’ Places ft. Mac Miller
Posted by Grubeats on September 2, 2012
Pittsburgh’s resident DJ, Fast Eddie, got an exclusive collab from the two PA kids for a feature on his most recent installment of his mixtape series Live From The 412. Although Wiz and Mac share a friendship, they have never fed off each other for features, and for the most part keep a distance in the booth to remain individual artists.’ That is certainly not to say we haven’t heard joint tracks from the two in the past, because we have, but they’re typically few and far. This one doesn’t sound like it’s hot off the decks, but embrace it and enjoy the byproduct of the Taylor Allderdice alumni.
Hip-Hop | Mac Miller – Missed Calls (ID Labs/ “Nobody’s Home Yet” Remix)
Posted by Grubeats on July 9, 2012
While Mac dropped the visuals for one of the most popular tracks off his debut album, Blue Slide Park, just last week, Pittsburgh producer, E. Dan, of ID Labs tossed together a remix to “Missed Calls”, well, because he can. Although ID Labs produced more than half of Mac’s album, Ritz Reynolds can be credited with the original production on this track. E. Dan amps up the beat but doesn’t waste time rearranging Mac’s love-story laced lyrics. If the original was too slow for your liking, try this remix.
Hip-Hop | Big Sean ft. Mac Miller – Hundred Dollar Bill Skyscraper
Posted by LoffyG on June 28, 2012
Big Sean teams up with Mac Miller on this Drumma Boy produced duet. This a collaboration I’ve been waiting to hear. According to Big Sean they have been homies for some time (as seen in the tweet below), but finally got the opportunity to put something together and this was the result. He’s been a busy man lately working on multiple projects such as the G.O.O.D Music collective album Cruel Summer, and his sophomore album Sean. Be on the lookout for those when they hit the shelves!
Hip-Hop | YONAS – Drive It Like It’s Stolen
Posted by Grubeats on June 11, 2012
YONAS has made waves lately with his remixes nobody has been able to touch. Most notably, our favorite Bronx street preacher flipped Foster The People’s chart topping hit, “Pumped Up Kicks”, which is on the brink of breaking 2,000,000 hits on YouTube. While YONAS’ attack has been rather stealth over the past few years, he’s beginning to garner the recognition he deserves with love from some of the most respected hip-hop sites such as XXL. Continuing with his string of amazing sampled tracks, Y-O brings it back to the blueprint and delivers a filthy new track over The Glitch Mob’s “Drive It Like You Stole It” which will act as the second single off his upcoming project. Consider this a verbal warning as YONAS shares a lesson on how to “Drive It Like It’s Stolen”. The Transition mixtape coming June 25th!
“This is not Mac Miller, this is that much iller, this is R.I.P. hipsters, I’m a backpack killer” – YONAS
Hip-Hop | Mac Miller – Day One: A Song About Nothing
Posted by LoffyG on June 9, 2012
Mac tweeted out this self-produced track early this morning. Not too shabby in my opinion production wise and lyrically. He gets into a bit of his sippin syrup talk, but other than that the flow is nice. Much better than that Onaroll track he dropped a few days back.
