Silver Medallion is back thanks to the French production duo Tune In Crew who have enlisted his vocals and good ol’ American songwriting to put together this electro-pop record “Racecar Driver” fit for radio! I’ve been a fan of Tune In Crew ever since their Matisyahu “Live Like A Warrior” remix, and it’s exciting to see that they are venturing into releasing original releases fit for radio. It’s only a matter of time until this record gets picked up! This is a must listen and support the artists by purchasing it on iTunes!

Hip-Hop, Rap | PELL – Floating While Dreaming
Posted by admin on May 27, 2014
Perhaps it’s the recycled subject matter, or the false need for a DJ Mustard beat, but it’s clear that many people are dissatisfied with the current state of hip-hop. It takes much more soul (Internet) searching to sift through the piles of gimmicky rappers that cloud our ears every day.
This past week rapper, PELL, did his part in clearing up the cloud. The release of his mixtape Floating While Dreaming proved to be both versatile and enjoyable to listen to. His melodic voice, accompanied by a slew of assonance-laden rhymes allows the tape to flow together with incredible cohesion.
PELL jumps between technical rapping and poppy hooks, and even shows his darker side on songs like, “SC2014”, featuring Boldy James.
When PELL spits: “It’s hard to stay loyal when there’s thousands who adore you.” it is hard not to think that those thousands will very soon be millions.
Hip-Hop | Mayo – Rock With You (Prod. By Milo Mills)

Mayo’s back with a Summer banger “Rock With You” and it’s silky smooth. Produced by Milo Mills, “Rock With You” has a bounce to it that you just can’t not feel, and I know this one is going to connect with the ladies, and the fellas for that matter, especially all of your Drake lovers. I have to admit this is my first time listening to Mayo, and lately I’ve been skeptical when it comes to hip hop, as jazz productions and monotonous weird flows are just becoming redundant, and boring, so it’s always refreshing to hear a rap song that I can cruise to with my girl by my side. This is def a must listen!
Pop | DJ Felli Fel ft. Pitbull, Juicy J, Cee Lo – Have Some Fun ft. Pitbull, Juicy J, Cee Lo

It’s not every day you get Pitbull, Juicy J, and Cee Lo on a track, but of course when you’re DJ Felli Fel one of the most influential radio DJs of our time, that’s just another day in the life, and they’re all ready to “Have Some Fun.” On some infectious level, I’m out here belting out the hook, channeling my inner Cee Lo, you already know my co-workers love it. Matter of fact, I’m willing to bet “I want to have some fun” is going to be the tag line when you get that text message “What do you want to do tonight?” F’it, let loose, this is a must listen!
Hip-Hop, Rap | Cozz – Dreams (Video)
Posted by admin on March 11, 2014
Cozz, the newest offspring of the mighty land known as Los Angeles, has waged a full on war against Nissin brand Top Ramen. “Imagine if I stopped rhymin’ and settled for Top Ramen…” the emcee ferociously spits; speaking as if the superb taste and value of the Asian noodle soup is something to be eaten begrudgingly.
In all seriousness, I was quite awe-struck when I first stumbled upon the video for “Dreams”. The conviction and intensity that Cozz packs in to each line is not to be trifled with, nor is it something that one can fake. It is clear that the West-Coast upstart is determined to make these dreams of his a reality, no matter the costs.
Although I’m usually one to let the music speak for itself and leave the statistics at home, it’s important to note the 8,000 plus views that “Dreams” has accrued as his first ever released song, in a single week. I have high hopes for what is next out, and I’m sure you’ll be seeing it up on Fresh New Tracks once again, hopefully accompanied by some more pointless rambling about cheap soup.
Hip-Hop | Choo Jackson – Windows
Posted by VMan on February 20, 2014
Choo Jackson releases visuals for “Windows” directed by ElephantxElephan, off his forthcoming sophomore project “Slightly Dark.” The 23-year-old Pennsylvania native is signed to Mac Miller’s REMember Music label, and preaches on this one with a “smooth like leather” flow. The life of an up and coming rapper is not easy, you really have to believe in yourself no matter what everyone else tells you, and Choo expresses this on his record. We believe in you Choo, your window of opportunity is open and at reach. This is a must listen and look out for his upcoming project!
