Trap duo Regulators just teamed up with UK producer SaneBeats for their wavy new track ‘Tipping Point’. The song has a mellow trap vibe with nice progression.  It’s an interesting change from their normal hard hitting and grimey sound, but no less impressive. This is the type of track you can just zone out to.  Stream and free download below.…

Happy Birthday to the Doctor! Today marks the legendary Dr.Dre‘s 49th birthday. Originally a member of the World Class Wreckin’ Cru, this man is responsible for bringing N.W.A., Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent and more recently Kendrick Lamar to the forefront of rap. Those are some serious hip hop heavyweights, which in turn makes the Doc one of the illest…

Bro Safari just dropped a new track as a Free Download! This time teaming up with Valentino Khan for a remix of MIA’s – YALA. Like everything Bro Safari (and Valentino Khan for that matter) touch, this track is absolutely insane. The song takes you on a genre melding ride with heavy elements of Moombahton and Trap. MIA’s vocals “Bombs…

eSenTRIK of TWRK just uploaded his brand new remix of Genuwine’s club classic ‘Pony’. The track premiered last night on BenZi‘s Girl Trapz 5 mix for Diplo & Friends. It retains the sensual feel of the original but has been updated with a 2014 soundscape. The remix has a nice slow build before dropping into a mellow trap vibe. The  bass and drums…

As if Kanye’s killer new remix of ‘Drunk in Love’ wasn’t enough, Mad Decent kingpin Diplo just dropped a remix of his own. The remix features a healthy addition of bangin’ bass and some nasty trap drums. Beyoncé luscious vocals with the heavy drops complement each other perfectly. I guarantee this song will be getting play from every DJ in…

Joey Bada$$ and his homies collectively are Pro Era. These cats dropped the #SECCSTAPEVOL2 late last night. One thing about these young rappers is that they individually and collectively have some serious talent. The whole Pro Era sound is so 90’s and it really does feel nostalgic. The free stream, 7 track EP starts with Dessy Hinds “Chocolate Strawberries” and…
