Blind Pilot - 3 Rounds and A Sound



While looking for an official video for this song I happen to stumble across this live video which is way better. Not voice overs, no added sounds, just talent and greatness.

Local Natives - Airplanes



Yes please. I have been telling people to listen to this song for a while now, and due to lack of people actually doing it ill do it for you. Here is one of the best bands you probably don't listen to. Local Natives out of California have the complete package. I highly recomend you buy the entire Gorilla Manor album which includes Airplanes. Its filthy in the good sense. Your Welcome

Fanfarlo - I'm A Pilot

 Resivoirs

Once again another song thats been around, just not around me somehow. Fanfarlo is another great indie band for you to enjoy this summer. Very Ra Ra Riotish this band just feels good to listen to. This one is off their debut album Reservoir. 

Freelance Whales - Hannah



newer is not always better. This song was released sometime ago but discovered by me today. With passion pit type melody with a much less annoying vocals ( no offense i do love passion pit). This song is off Weathervanes album which is solid from start to finish with similar catchy melodies to this one. And after all who doesn't like indie rock during the summer season.

Consequence - Waiting Too Long (ft. Ryan Leslie, Tony Williams)


Incredibly underrated, Consequence drops a new track for us. Featuring Ryan Leslie and Tony Williams and produced by none other than the Kanye West. This song is smooth as hell, and Con makes easy work of the beat.

Childish Gambino – I Do Not Talk (Unofficial Mixtape)



If your not on the Childish Gambino train yet, your late and pretty stupid. His last EP, Childish Gambino,  is phenomenal to put it lightly. Here is his newest drop, and the actor Donald Glover, has out done himself again as Childish Gambino. Do yourself a solid and Download it here. Understand though as the title states this is not an official mixtape, but it really shows off that this guy can spit flames.

This track dropped the other day on illroots, and didnt make mind up about it until right now. Simply putm shit is pretty dope.

The download is here, and Im sure most of you will be putting it on your next mix.

Cults - You Know What I Mean

Absolutely. The Cults have to be the weirdest group out right now. I believe they have a total of four songs now that I know of. The worst part is that all four are incredible. I don't know if its because they have so few songs that I am into them, but whatever it is, its working. They released this a day or two ago, and it kind of sounds like a cross bewteen the 1950s and 1980s. I can dig it.

John West - Lovely (ft. Pusha T)


John West is the real deal. With a Robin Thicke Delivery, but a smoother voice, I can see him blowing up in the near near future.

EPMD - Dont Get Clapped


1988... You still heard Kool & The Gang in the hood, jerry still had the sickest curl, Bruce Willace was still cool, George Michael was still straight, and the world was clearly a better place. But today my mind was blown when I cam to realize that EPMD was still releasing tracks from their wheelchairs. These guys were famous at a time I can only read about in my Urban Studies of African American Culture text book (It's an easy 'A'). But you cant hate on them for trying, or going bankrupt again and needing to hit the booth. Love what Im hearing fellas. Stay up... or in your case  Get Down On It.


EPMD - Don't Get Clapped by Hypetrak

Kanye West featuring Drake, Lil Wayne & Big Sean – All of the Lights (Remix)


Today has been ridiculous with these releases. Here is another that killed it. Weezy dont forget the F, Big Sean, and Drake destroy it. I'd like to a second out to give a special thanks to Drake. I have been sticking up for this mother fucker while people bash his softer ways, and I'm just glad he removed his Canadian lips from Nikki Minaj's  gaping vagina long enough to actually rap. Thanks brotha.

Band of Horses - The Funeral (Butch Clancy Remix)

The Game - Monster in My Head

The Game has been steppin' up lately with a couple of tracks worth listening to. This one being the best of the bunch. A mellow beat topped with The Games raspy delivery makes the song an eery look back into his gangster past... never heard this story before.


Game – Monsters In My Head by Hypetrak

Jean Grae - R.I.P. (ft. Styles P & Talib Kweli)


Nikki can take a seat. Move aside and make room for Jean Grea. Jean has been in the background for too long. For a woman emcee... thats right a true gutter hoe. She's actually worth listening to. She gets on her first single in a while with Tha Ghost and Kweli.

Lil Wayne - We Back Soon


This song shows a side of weezy we have seen in a long time. Its a taste of the old lil Wayne that everyone actually liked before he turned into a shorter, more tattooed version of T-pain.

Wiz Khalifa - The Race

If more songs off Rolling Papers turn out like this the album might not be a complete label raping. So far what we have heard from Wiz off his upcoming album has been some serious bull shit, but this song gives us true Wiz fans a beam of hope.

Kanye West - Monster

Here is the video you can no longer see on MTV thanks to lesbians. MTV has banned this video from all of its channels thanks to women's activists groups complaining about its brutalism towards women.

Yelawolf - XXL Freshman Freestyle...



I don't think that anyone would argue Shaddy Record's newest addition Yelawolf is one of the nicest out. He's killed it on his mixtape Trunk Muzik, and shows off his high tempo spitting abilities in this less than a minute freestyle for XXL.


If you have not downloaded Trunk Muzik yet your an idiot, and you don't deserve it. But because I am in a good mood here you go.
