It’s a couple weeks before Bada$$ drops his first album and this track has me excited for it. ‘Teach Me’ is different from his usual material; it’s polished and upbeat. You could even say it’s radio-friendly. Kiesza’s verse and hook flies high thanks to the contrast with Joey’s thick rap bars, providing a little bit of sweet with the savoury.…

Nerzerk and Mr.Kruff connect with P.Keys for a fire new tune. ‘Dragon’ sees the producers crafting a mystic, hypnotizing trap backdrop. P.Keys brings the heat with cleverly themed wordplay, “still bling with no armour on, cause I don’t get touched like a hammer song, bitch I’m like Thor how my hammer strong, such a fuckin’ pilot how I land the…

Do you like bass? If you’re currently smiling and nodding then we’ve got something for you.  Volume three of BASSment SH!t is a collection of the nastiest, heaviest, subterranean tracks we’ve come across. This is the type of music you listen to in a dark dingy basement club after 2am. It’s the type of shit you don’t even dance too, you just stand…

It’s a new year and that means it’s time for new music. For our first #FUXWITHITFRIDAYS feature of 2015 we have an eclectic mix of party tunes to soundtrack your weekend. We kick things off with a trap banger from newcomer BeGanIE-Beatz. Next up is a genre bender from Josh Pan x Y//2//K that fuses futuristic melodies with trap drums and club drops. Other…

Japanese Wallpaper is a moniker for Australian producer Gab Strum, a multi-instrumentalist who is starting to make waves. Last week, he dropped a remix EP in support of the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre. It contains remixes from Sable, Qrion, Clubfeet, and several others. In particular, this remix of ‘Waves,’ by UV boi فوق بنفسجي catches my attention. I can’t help but…

One of our favourite new rappers of 2014, P.Keys, has just released the first visual of his Nobody EP. Opting to go for the title track, the video perfectly captures the vibe of the song: introspective, laid back and solitary. The fact that P.Keys is alone in the video really reinforces the feeling. P.Keys has been pretty quiet in terms of posting photos of himself online…

Kicking off the new year right, TroyBoi comes through with a sexy new tune. ‘No Substitute’ combines R&B vocals from Y.A.S with TroyBoi’s unique production style. The vocals make the track a bit more accessible than a large portion of his previous work. That’s not to say that it lacks creativity or bass, as this tune packs a multitude of both. Vibe…

January 1st means a new year, a fresh start and likely a pretty serious hangover. Chances are you spent last night getting turnt and are feeling the after effects right now. If you’re reading this Gatorade in hand, with screen your brightness set as low as possible than I’ve got something for you. If you’re feeling great but in the mood to…

Young Thug gathers regular associates Rich Homie Quan and PeeWee Longway on ‘Hold Us,’ a perfect track to help you segway into your normal routine after the busy holidays. Take down that tree, put away the lights, and stick all that Christmas cash in a “bankroll that won’t fold up. ” Listen below: ‘Hold Us’: [soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/183604377″ params=”auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true” width=”100%” height=”450″ iframe=”true”…

There was once a time when I anxiously awaited the end of the year to hear Skillz do his annual ‘Rap-Up’. After it falling off my radar for a few years I was pleased to see the ‘2014 Rap-Up’ pop up. Skillz perfectly captures all the year’s biggest events from pop culture, to social and political issues. It’s the perfect…
