With already half a million views in only two days, you should have already seen the “Thrift Shop” music video. It is a must watch and may just be one of the better music videos released this year. I don’t say that often for videos, but directors Jon Jon Augustavo, Ryan Lewis, and Ben Haggerty really…

Music Video: 2 Chainz ft. Kanye West – Birthday Song
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
Deuce and ‘Ye dropped the official visual for their collaboration “Birthday Song.” The music video turned out to be interesting to say the least. A 2 Chainz birthday party would most definitely be a weird one. See the video for yourself below. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Y34jC4I1m70]

Music Video: MellowHype- “La Bonita”
by Anthony Porcelli •
“La Bonita” is the lead single off the upcoming album, Numbers, from OFWGKTA’s MellowHype. “La Bonita” has one of the most unique beats I’ve heard, but its nothing we haven’t come to expect from the wildly creative Hip-Hop collective. Hodgy kills his verse and proves to us once again that he’s just as talented- if…

Hit-Boy ft. Big Sean- “Option”
by Anthony Porcelli •
Hit-Boy’s debut mixtape, HITstory, really exceeded my expectations; this dude can RAP. Maybe my expectations should have been higher since Kanye signed him to GOOD Music, but ever since he signed 2 Chainz I think my low expectations are understandable. But as I said before, contrary to what I expected, Hit-Boy’s debut was a pleasant…
