Wow. Lil Ugly Mane wasn't kidding when he said this year was going to be big. Rapping under the 'Bedwetter' alias, Ugly sounds as sharp and focused as ever on 'Stoop Lights.' There's this certain anger in his voice that is so infatuating. Think he's...
Off of the duo's The Life & Death of Scenery album. Lif brings dense bars to the table as usual. According to Mello Music, this is the last video we'll get from that album too. Strongly recommend it! image via Xinyi Zhu & Mello Music Group...
What is this, Goosebumps? Actually though, this was a cool vid. Surprised he didn't die at the end. Starboy still getting plays months later; what an album. image via The Weeknd & XO ...
Casey Veggies. Last time we heard from him was on last year's mixtape Customized Greatly Vol. 4. Like most good Veggies tracks, this one is fun, upbeat and well-rapped. Dude went from trading bars with Tyler, The Creator on the first Odd Future tape to...
Little freestyle to hold us over until Godfather. Classic UK hip hop displayed here. image via Wiley...
One of the dopest combos I've heard in a minute. Three underground greats on this track, courtesy of Mello Music Group. Stik's upcoming album Central Standard Time is on the way! Nottz should be behind bars for making a beat this sick. image via Stik Figa...
What a moving performance. Sampha has such a pure voice and style; I love every song I've heard from him yet. You better buy or heavily stream his debut album Process on February 3rd or I'll be pissed! I mean it! image via Sampha &...
This dude has been everywhere lately. Good looks on these visuals, one of my favorite cuts from Kairi Chanel. Mass Appeal reppin. Slick beat courtesy of Buda & Grandz. image via Dave East & Mass Appeal...
Syd season is in full effect. The outstandingly talented singer is gearing up to drop her debut solo album Fin, with 'All About Me' serving as the first single. Pop style works on here - hyped for this LP. Shouts to Steve Lacy on the...
Damn, I'm digging these Herbo and East collabs. Two different styles that mesh well. Glad to see that East is staying busy too. Can only imagine what he and Nas are cooking up for his debut studio album. Song lives up to its title. image via...
Let's go Kaytranada! This is some heavenly shit. No disrespect to Alicia, but the production steals the show. Pretty boss that this was uploaded to Swizz Beatz's SoundCloud too. Underrated power couple. Bounce! image via Alicia Keys...
That fact that Toro makes hip hop beats is still amazing to me. Rome rides the experimental production on these two tracks with ease, exemplifying his sheer versatility as an artist. Beautiful Pimp III is out this year. image via Rome Fortune ...
Time for a little jazz and soul. Keyon Harrold is a trumpeter/composer/producer from St. Louis. He's gearing up to release a new album, and this Krizzle featured track is the first cut from the project. Gonna be on repeat for a while. What a collab. image...
The West Coast OG is back with the bars. This track is off his recently dropped Egyptian Merchandise album, definitely peep that project if you dig this. What a beat switch. Flow is clean too. image via Planet Asia & Gold Chain Music...
Can't put into words how glad I am that this dude is starting to blow up. Another solid remix - keep it going K.A.A.N.! Proud to call myself a fan. image via K.A.A.N....
Was in love with this beat the second I heard it. Yachty delivers a fun guest verse, same goes with the hook. Awful Records are slaying it right now. 100%. image via Ethereal ...
UK production team 'Jazz Spastiks' and Southern hip hop group 'Mello Soul Black' have teamed up once more to drop a collab. Beat is near perfect - tight rhymes on the verse too. These guys are only at the beginning of their careers, and there...
Full version of one of my favorite cuts from the 0.001% mixtape that dropped last year. TLC sample is as soothing as it gets, Kaytranada's remixes are next level. RIP Left Eye. image via Kaytranada & Joseph Okpako ...
Been a minute since I've heard some fresh Aiko. Chill track, production is also pretty mellow. Interested in hearing her next project. image via Jhené Aiko & Def Jam ...
This is my favorite Yachty song. Happy that he put this out. Fun vibe. Short sentences. Lil Boat. Sailing Team. Better than Biggie? For sure. Better than Lennon? Duh. Sarcasm. Hope that's implied. The end. image via Lil Yachty & Quality Control ...
