Bam Bam and Chance the Rapper slow it down for ‘Baby Blue,’ a new cut that I can only assume will be featured on Mr. Wonderful. The Mark Ronson produced beat features soulful keys, some choral choral vocals and Social Experiament-like horns, all which blend nicely with Bam Bam’s rhymes and hook. This is best thing they’ve done together since ‘NaNa’…

We’ve been expecting this remix for a while and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s more of an addition than a remix, as Missy slides two verses in after the first two hooks, filling the already killer jam out nicely.  Check it out below.

Australian bred producer Catlips (Katie Campbell) recently signed to Pilerats Records and is readying her debut EP, Casual, which is due to be release on March 6th. The first single from the effort is called ‘Fade,’ and it’s a funky collage of nice vocal loops, stumbling organ synth and house-like percussion. Sonically, it comes off sounding a little Todd Terje-esque, which is…

Grime artists like Wiley, Sway and Kano have always remarked in their music that they feel as if they are constantly in the shadows of American rappers. However, lately the tables have turned, and dynamic American rappers like Danny Brown are calling on UK grime producers like Darq E Freaker and Rustie for unique beats; something to set them apart…

“They say your attitude determines your latitude I’m high as a motherfucker – fly as a motherfucker. And still that motherfucker you love to hate But can’t – Because you love what I make.” This quote from Kanye’s verse in Rhymefest’s ‘Brand New’ has always described Kanye West. Considering the press created over the 2015 Grammys, it rings true now…

Here we go; another ‘Faded’ rework. I’m sure that some can’t help but wonder why people can’t leave it well enough alone, already. But there is no better barometer for the quality of an original. This track has been remixed countless times, yes, but by producers with skill and experience in their craft. Furthermore, what better way to showcase a…

Queens rapper/chef Action Bronson brings us back to the good old days on the baseball diamond with ‘Big League Chew,’ an Alchemist produced cut that won’t actually be part of Bam Bam’s upcoming album. It features a soulful beat with vocals and thick rhymes focusing on everything from Bronson’s dive from an ocean yacht to his part in Mr. Muthafucking…

If Meek Mill can manage to keep himself out of jail, we’ll have access to an entire LP worth of new music sooner, rather than later. ‘B-Boy’ is a cut from Dreams Worth More Than Money and will have to satiate our appetites until the record drops. Bringing Big Sean and Ferg into the studio for this one was wise,…

I guarantee that anyone flipping through Danny Brown’s surprisingly large back-catalogue will discover Black andy Brown! and play it on repeat for a week. This short LP was released in 2011 to favourable reviews and all tracks are produced by fellow Detroit native, Black Milk.  It flew a little under the radar and doesn’t get the attention it deserves. On ‘LOL,’ Brown…

Kaytranada and Vic Mensa are artists on the cusp of their respective crafts and they’ve collaborated for a new song called ‘Drive Me Crazy.’ This track highlights Kaytranada’s dynamic production by incorporating several different styles into one song. Similarly, it shows Mensa’s versatility as both a singer and rapper. This isn’t their first time recording together; last year’s ‘Wimme Nah’…
