Nick Hook has had a pretty impressive 2014. Earlier this year he went Searching for Sound with Baauer, connected with Hudson Mohawke and S-Type to produce The Rap Monument and produced the smash ‘Old English’. Closing the year off strong, the NY producer connected with Dj Sliink, Nadus, Bodega Bamz and Crystal Caines (yes, you read that correctly). ‘Going Back 2’ is a unique blend of inventive…

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…

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…

Making this list wasn’t easy. Although there are probably hundreds of remixes out there, you have to weed your way through twice the amount of covers and reposts of his originals to find them. Which bring us to the reason we made this list: Drake is arguably the most popular and influential rapper today. Whether it’s a new artist he…

The new GTAV is here for PS4 and XBox One, and with it comes new music for FlyLo FM and Radio Los Santos. Amongst those is this hilarious jam from Danny Brown and Action Bronson, a tag team I wish we’d see more often. They work together flawlessly, whipping off punchline after punchline. DB plays the gang leader and Bam…

Hustle Hard. Maino is back with his follow up project to K.O.B. and this time he’s bringing some big stars with him. The first part to his King Of Brooklyn series dropped at the top of the year and just before the year closes he’s ready with K.O.B. 2. The tape features 11 tracks with guest verses from Busta Rhymes, French Montana…

If you’re not familiar with Your Old Droog here’s a quick rundown. Back in June he put out his debut EP. With little information on the artist and nothing but the music to go on, the internet had a field day with rumours swirling that Droog was actually Nas’ alias. Droog let the rumours swell for quite some time before disproving…

There’s nothing I love more than Rap and Electronic music. So anytime the two are combined in an exciting way, I’m all about it. The most recent fusing of the two genres seems to be hard hitting Rap and Deep House. One producer at the forefront of this is LA native, Destructo, with his G-House movement. His most recent release ‘West Coast EP’…

Whoa. 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…
