Last week we had the pleasure of connecting with eSenTRIK for an exclusive interview. In the interview he brought my attention to a bootleg he created in 2010 that fused Drake’s mega hit ‘Over’ with Dj Sega’s ‘Be’. It was a huge track for him as it was the first time he ever received blog coverage and even saw it posted on Drake’s…

With Nicki Minaj, Drake,  & Lil Wayne’s ‘Truffle Butter’ blowing up the internet, radio and clubs alike I thought it would be fitting to take a look at the track that laid the foundation for the beat. If you haven’t heard Maya Jane Coles’ ‘What They Say’ it should sound quite familiar. The deep house track is sampled throughout the…

There is truth in numbers and no matter what the haters and naysayers might chirp from Twitter and other social networks, Drake is the biggest artist in the game right now. The OVO head honcho dropped his new, kinda-confirmed and highly anticipated mixtape 6 years to the day of the release of his So Far Gone mixtape. The kid from…

With Drake’s If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late dropping just last week, we thought it would be cool to look back at the mixtape that made him. This track ‘Say You Will’, perfectly looped by 40, was track number eight on his So Far Gone mixtape. Venting over the Kanye West track, Drake walks you through what its like to be…

Big Sean is on the heels of having a great 2015 and with the sudden drop of Drake’s new mixtape, Sean let a verse he added to ‘Used To’ fly. Big Sean is really going in on every track as of late and though I’m not a fan of ‘IDFWU’, he has been soaking up a lot of shine. Check…

It’s 11:20 pm Toronto time and I get a message from my homie that reads, “Drake just pulled a Beyonce”. Well whadayaknow? A day before the 6 year anniversary of his classic mixtape So Far Gone, Drake dropped a full length album. There are 17 tracks and the album features PARTYNEXTDOOR, Travi$ Scott and Lil Wayne. Is this the mixtape…

While we wait for Drake’s fourth album (Views from the 6), the Toronto native dropped a short film that shows his return to Toronto. ‘Jungle’ shows an overwhelmed Drake reminiscing on the past while he links up with his OVO camp back in T.O. Full of self captured video and views from the 6 (see what i did there? ha!)…

Drake and Wayne’s ‘Money To Blow’ is a modern day club classic. The infectious melodies and stunt filled lyrics are impossible to resist while partying. Reinventing the track, Krs. takes the hit in a completely new direction, moving from the club to the lounge. The new version is wavy as the Atlantic and some heavy bass and slapping percussion make…

Oh God! Big Sean had a pretty stellar 2014 with a big single and great features. Building on the momentum, the Detroit native announced his upcoming album Dark Sky Paradise for a February 24th release date. Late Thursday night, Sean dropped a new single from the upcoming album featuring Drake and label boss Kanye West. ‘Blessings’ has Sean recalling his come…

50 weeks deep and still bringing you heat. We kick off this week with a killer remix of Ludacris’ classic ‘Southern Hospitality’ from newcomers Brunch Money. Keeping the energy high, Andromulus reworks Gents & Jawns ‘Fireball’ which is immediately followed by a gritty remix of Meek Mill courtesy of Baht. Other standouts include a groovy house rework of Notorious B.I.G and…
