The White Panda- “Wallphones”

I am am not too fond of different vocals being layered over each other, but The White Panda make it work to an extent on their new track “Wallphones”.  They sampled Maroon 5 and Sultan & Ned Shepard on the mash up. I do believe that two vocals together can get annoying, but the song picks…

Hit Boy feat. Kid Cudi- “Old School Caddy”

Hit Boy is back once again rapping this time alongside his G.O.O.D. Music label mate, Kid Cudi.  It’s good to hear Cudder rapping, but this one is a little repetitive.  Hit Boy still proves that he can rap though.  He even handles chorus duty on “Old School Caddy”. Also watch the music video for “Jay-Z Interview” and download…

Hoodie Allen – “Hey Now”

Hoodie Allen has been having a successful year thus far with his exceptional release in April, All American.  The EP hit number 1 on iTunes and widened his fan base.  His recent success and touring hasn’t stopped him from making new music though.  Today, Hoodie let go a new single entitled “Hey Now” for free.  The…

50 Cent feat. Dr Dre & Alicia Keys- “New Day”

Fifty released his new single featuring Dr. Dre and Alicia Keys today as promised.  “New Day” will be featured on 50 Cent’s upcoming album, Street King Immortal. I’m going to go out on a limb when I say 50 Cent is back.  Although this isn’t that Get Rich or Die Tryin 50, the track is still is promising.…

Schoolboy Q- There He Go (Music Video)

Schoolboy Q just dropped the official music video to his single “There He Go” off of his sophomore album, Habits & Contradictions.  This was one of my favorite tracks off the album so I’ve been looking forward to the video.  The visual is dope as Q made it into a lyric video almost with nice…

Zorastra “Control Room” EP

Although I don’t know much about Zorastra, I can tell you that their new EP is very impressive.  Zorastra is made up of two producers: Pouria and Puyan (thank you facebook). The three track EP, Control Room, was released through Big Fish Recordings and it really showcases the duo’s talent.  The build ups are great, drops are powerful and the…
