I was never too fond of Blu’s beat selection, but the dude can rap. On his new track “Rap Dope”, Blu reminds us why is his viewed as one of the better lyricists in the game right now. It was refreshing to hear Blu’s new single after just listening through Weezy’s new tape. Production was…

Mixtape: Lil Wayne “Dedication 4”
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
#MixtapeMondays Two massive new mixtapes released today (peep Talib’s new one here), I can’t complain. Skateboard Weezy dropped his highly anticipated new mixtape, Dedication 4. I’ve heard mixed reviews on this one, but then again every track/project Wayne has dropped recently has gotten mixed reviews. After skimming through the mixtape, I can’t say that it is all recycle…
Preview: Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman ft. Jonny Rose – Pieces of Light (Original Mix)
by Jason •
Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman are back with an original mix. “Pieces of Light” features vocals from Jonny Rose who I thought did a great job and hopefully we will hear more from him in the future. Dimitri & Wyman did a fantastic job pairing Rose’s vocals with their stellar production. Check out the preview below…
Preview: Flux Pavilion & Childish Gambino New Track At Electric Zoo
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
I never thought I’d see the day where Childish Gambino and Flux Pavilion would collaborate on a new track. Flux dropped his new bass heavy collaboration featuring Gambino during his live set at Electric Zoo in NYC and although the preview is only two minutes long, you can get a good feel of the track.…
David Guetta ft. Ne-Yo & Akon– Play Hard
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
Wiz Khalifa isn’t the only person to “Word Hard, Play Hard“, Ne-Yo, Akon and David Guetta work hard and play hard too. Not sure how this one will do, but it has potential to be a radio smash. Guetta samples Alice Deejay’s “Better Off Alone” and funny enough Wiz Khalifa’s 2008 radio hit “Say Yeah”…
Video: Jay-Z & Pearl Jam Perform “99 Problems”
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
Last night, Pearl Jam closed up the Jay-Z curated festival, Made In America and from the videos I’ve see they did a great job. The 90s grunge rock band brought out Jay-Z for the Seattle based band’s second encore to play a new rock version of “99 Problems.” Both Jay-Z and Pearl Jam fans seemed to…

Music Video: Green Day “Kill the DJ”
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
Not my favorite new Green Day song, but the music video makes it a tad bit better and more interesting. There is a random scene of the group riding motocycles in the desert and I don’t really think that has anything to do with the song, but it still was cool for some odd reason.…
Preview: Big Sean “24 Karats Of Gold” & “How It Feel”
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
I’ve been looking for new music and releases from the last couple of days and haven’t found much, but that makes sense considering it is weekend. Every artist decides to drop their new single on Monday or even Tuesday just so I can post ten things at once. I can’t complain though, later this week…
Wiz Khalifa ft. Mac Miller- “Goin’ Places”
by Raffi Khatchadourian •
Let me start this post off by saying this is the Mac that originally made me a fan. Although his verse seems to be cut short, it still has that High Life/K.I.D.S. feel that I’ve been craving this summer. Yes, if I want his old music I could just go back and listen to his old mixtapes,…
