Trippy Turtle is back with what may be his most fun loving track yet. ‘FoFo’ pulls together a smattering of samples including O.T. Genasis ‘CoCo’, Drake’s “Left your mark on me”, Big Sean vocals and a ton of gun clicks, water droplets and of course, a few bed squeaks for good measure. My favourite part is near the songs close…

TroyBoi is back with his bedazzled glove and that means it’s time for another Michael Jackson flip.  If you haven’t heard ‘Don’t Be Judging (MJ Edition)’ I’d advise you check it out ASAP. For his latest take on his hero’s work, the London based producer remixes the king of pop’s ‘Stranger In Mosow’. Maintaining the desolate and moving feel of the original,…

As 2014 comes to a close, it’s time to reflect on a stellar musical year.To do so, we’ve rounded up the top 50 songs of the year. In developing this list we weighed each track against the following criteria: overall song quality, impact and popularity, and support (blogs, charts, DJs, etc.). The list will be broken out over the next…

Standouts include ‘turnup track of the week’ from Great Dane & Promnite, a sexy remix of ‘Ayo Technology’, and a Jet Life Remix of R. Kelly’s classic ‘Ignition’. It’s the freakin’ weekend, go…

New Rules. Nipsey Hussle made some serious noise last year with the release of his Crenshaw LP. In an attempt to respond to the current record sales climate, Hussle introduced the Proud2Pay campaign where fans would be able to either download the album for free or cop a limited pressed copy for $100. The kid was able to push more than…

King Hov. For any hip hop heads that don’t know or haven’t heard yet, today is Jay Z’s born day. That being said, we’re doing a special Throwback Thursday in celebration of Hov turning 45. The man has been a giant in the rap game pretty much since he dropped his soon-to-be classic debut album ‘Reasonable Doubt’. Not only has Hov…

After a bit of a hiatus from the internet, Corin Roddick and Megan James, known as Purity Ring, are back. ‘Push Pull’ is a cut from the in-progress follow up to 2012’s Shrines, which was short-listed for the 2013 Polaris Music Prize. Although there is no name or release date for their sophomore effort, it’s guaranteed that we will have more information…

Lido is easily one of the most creative and inventive producers in electronic music right now. With that said it should come as no surprise that he came up with an interesting way to give away his ‘I Love You Too (The Remixtape)’. Earlier today he posted a link to www.lidogotsongs.com. When you land on the page you’re greeted with the…

P.Keys has taken the internet by storm with his impressive flips (‘Not To Play With’, ‘Realm’, ‘This Morning Was Funny’). Now he’s back with a fresh original featuring production from Keif Ledger. ‘Lit’ features a hard hitting trap backdrop with pitched down vocals setting the stage. P.Keys drops a dope sixteen with the pitched vocals echoing his bars. The hook is simplistic…

The Fayetville native’s third album leaked online late last night and the discussion over one track spread like rapid fire. The new album ‘2014 Forest Hills Drive’ is scheduled to drop December 9th with an unusual roll out (extremely limited promo and no singles) and though the leak takes away from its semi-surprise element, this track will suffice as excellent…
