Xander The Great: Royal Blood (Debut Mixtape)

May 10th, 2012 No Comments

I came across Xander’s debut mixtape, Royal Blood, a few days ago, and I was thoroughly impressed. The mixtape — which features singing, rapping, and production from Xander himself — has this sort of raw Frank Ocean/The Weeknd/Kanye-808′s vibe, but with his own added twist that I think you’ll enjoy. At 20 years old, I [...]

Dylan Reynolds: Tightrope

May 4th, 2012 Comments Off

Last month, Mac Miller introduced Dylan Reynolds, a friend/childhood bandmate of his, and now his first track was just released. “Tightrope” features some smooth and soulful singing from Dylan Reynolds over a simple-but-effective production, but does he have what it takes to make it (besides a Mac Miller co-sign)? You be the judge! Preview: [Audio [...]

Steven A. Clark: Don’t Have You

March 20th, 2012 Comments Off

This is too sick. We haven’t heard from Steven A. Clark in a while, but, on his latest track, Clark makes it clear that he’s been putting in work. Don’t Have You is a personal-yet-relatable, emotional, and energetic ballad that will definitely help put Clark on the map if properly promoted. We’ll start it off! [...]

Usher: Climax (Remix) ft. Joe Budden

February 25th, 2012 Comments Off

Joe Budden hops on the new Diplo-produced track from Usher, and he holds it down as usual. Budden’s deep vocals contrast nicely with the crazy high pitches that Usher hits, and it’s just what the track needed to convince me to download it. “… Or did I not have time since I blew up? Maybe [...]

Ryan Leslie: The Way U Move (Remix) ft. Pharrell & Nas

January 9th, 2012 Comments Off

This track blends verses from Pharrell’s That Girl and Nas’ Hey Nas with the production and hook from Ryan Leslie’s The Way U Move, and it’s a must have. I’ve had this in my iTunes for a few years now, and it’s still in heavy rotation. If you know who made it, let me know. [...]

Collin McLoughlin: Chasing Dreams (Video)

October 12th, 2011 Comments Off

Collin McLoughlin is my favorite singer/writer. He is not only good looking (yes, I’m a girl), but his voice is absolutely amazing. He released this video to promote the November 1st release of Stark Perspective, his upcoming 4 song EP. Collin worked all summer learning how to combine his two favorite genres together, electronica dance [...]
