Yet again, Drake has thoroughly impressed me with his versatility and the replay value that he puts into the music he creates. I know there are a lot of people who aren’t pleased with this track because Drake uses Beyoncé’s chorus sample and lyrics. However, I see this only as a slight drawback due to Fauntleroy’s [...]
The latest single from the young NYC emcee is a great addition to an already outstanding list of singles since his freshman album (1999). As the title suggests, you may be able to picture yourself cruising in the whip doing questionable activities with your friends while bumping this track, which I’m thinking is exactly what [...]

Another up-and-coming artist, Raz Simone hits us with a deep and thought provoking track with a ton of replay value. Kicked off with a simple yet catchy guitar riff that turns into a collection of funky/jazz rhythms, “Sometimes I Don’t” is a great change from the typical electronic beats we hear coming from a lot [...]

Now THIS is a side of Beyoncé that we rarely see. This track starts off with a dramatic chopped and screwed beat that has Bey calling out all the ladies who have tried to take her spot, and reminding them who the real Queen is. To sum it all up, “Bow down b*tches”. Then, seemingly [...]
As is expected from this top notch club artist, Diplo has hit us with another banger that will surely make every DJ’s playlist. I’ll be honest, I was skeptical until about :30 seconds in, at which point I started dancing uncontrollably. If you can listen to this without moving to the music, I commend you. [...]
The latest mashup from The White Panda is a great addition to their “Mashup Mondays” collection, and certainly worthy of a listen (or ten). In this weeks track, the duo features samples from Ellie Goulding, Kendrick Lamar, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the Lumineers, making for an addictive banger that will keep this track [...]

When it comes to Drake, you either love him or you hate him. This newest single, in my opinion, is a breath of fresh air for those who aren’t a big fan of his singing/rapping combination. I’ll be honest with you, I straight up did not like Started From the Bottom. I thought it was simple [...]
Relatively new on the Hip Hop/Rap scene, KYLE is emerging as a truly promising artist. Keep It Real, the latest single off of his upcoming studio debut, is absolutely one of the catchiest tracks I have heard in a long time. Over chopped samples and a snare, KYLE takes us on a journey through his [...]
An unreleased song from Ocean’s channel ORANGE sessions, “Eyes Like Sky” will restore your faith in Frank Ocean if it was ever in question. Coming in with a guitar riff that will hook you immediately, Frank shows us a non-R&B side to his musical talent that we have seen very little of. The song tells the story [...]
