“Yeah, this dedicated to Canada man, the whole up North. A lot of people don’t realize how cold it gets during the Winter.” I couldn’t think of a track more fitting, as I’m writing this while riding the bus in a snowstorm. The cut comes off of Drake’s debut mixtape Room For Improvement. This is when Drake was still working…

Hudson Mohawke feat. Pusha T, French Montana, Travi$ Scott and Future – Chimes
by Kashby KashWhoa. Hudson Mohawke may have dropped this joint earlier in the year and it may have been used as the lead single from his EP of the same name – but this is new. Though this isn’t the CDQ version that we’re all waiting for, it is definitely good enough. This version features vocals from Pusha T, French Montana, Travis Scott and…

I’m beginning to wonder if TroyBoi ever sleeps. I can’t imagine he does, considering the vast quantity of quality music that he releases. It seems like every other week, or sometimes twice a week, he blesses listeners with a new release. Just four days after ‘The Messenger’ TroyBoi gives us ‘Remember’. The track is built around a vocal sample that carries throughout that…

What happens when one of the illest pro-duo’s (get it? producer duo, ha!) remixes one of the coldest rap records of the year? You get a cold ass bootleg like this. LOUDPVCK has been consistent with their tracks and after dropping banger after certified banger, these cats are out to dominate. Rocky’s ‘Multiply’ was already a track that featured a…

Black EL’s debut project is finally here! If you’re a frequent reader of our site you’ve probably heard a couple of his tracks already (‘Garcia Vega’, ‘Golden Child’, ‘Do Not Distrub’ ). If not, it’s about time you get familiar with the Boston rapper. His Space Wave sound is as smooth as warm butter on popcorn and just as hard to…

Each track brings a unique flavour with the Vices rework containing stellar vocal chops, hard hitting kicks and drippy synths.…

Bands. With Kanye on the boards providing the production, Push snatches up all the money he can in this latest track. The beat is pretty dope and you can expect some dope bars from Pusha. No word yet if this is attached to any project but you can stream the track below.

Coming straight out of the Netherlands Formil is an artist you’ve probably never heard of but will start seeing more often on our site. His latest release ‘Toasted Sandwich’ opens with a progressive and overtly happy build. Don’t get too comfortable because things get gritty pretty quick with a bass heavy trapped out drop. The track then mellows out and…

Legendary emcee Talib Kweli not only prides himself on his amazing skills as an artist but also for his ear for upcoming talent. Considering the fact that Kweli was an early supporter of many of the new school greats (Kanye West, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar) in 2012 he founded his own label, Javotti Media, with the goal of helping to break new artists. Cathedral is…

Girl Trapz is back! If you aren’t familiar with the mix series it’s about time you take a listen. Benzi’s mixture of Chill Trap, Jersey Club and Future Bass is nothing short of spectacular. The original Girl Trapz played a key role in shaping our site as it served as an introduction to Jersey Club and Future Bass for me…
