This socially conscious and emotionally driven joint features Kendrick drawing on his thoughts about race relations in the rap game and society. Throughout the song he calls himself a hypocrite – and if you listen close enough, you’ll hear why. Listen below.

Jersey Club producer TR!CK$ is on fire. I first came across his work with his rambunctious flip of Makonnen’s ‘Tuesday’ but it was ‘LoV3’ that truly impressed. Keeping a similar tone TR!CK$ has linked up with L’Etranger for a new original. The opening vibe is mellow with smooth guitar riffs and pitched vocals. It picks up quickly with some fast drum work…

Though there are a ton that will show up in the next little bit, this one from KRNE is pretty amazing. KRNE flips Missy’s ‘Get Ur Freak On’ into a big trap banger. The most impressive thing about…

Dropping out of nowhere, the Kinison EP is an exceptional project loosely focused on shedding light on the musical relationship between Rock and Roll and Hip Hop.

On Friday (Jan. 30th), two of Toronto’s finest electronic music acts returned home for a show that was nothing short of incredible. Thugli and Grandtheft took over The Hoxton; one of the best clubs in the city. If you haven’t been to the venue I’d suggest you take a trip as soon as possible. Relatively small in size, it allows for intimate…

Drake and Wayne’s ‘Money To Blow’ is a modern day club classic. The infectious melodies and stunt filled lyrics are impossible to resist while partying. Reinventing the track, Krs. takes the hit in a completely new direction, moving from the club to the lounge. The new version is wavy as the Atlantic and some heavy bass and slapping percussion make…

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…
