Frank Ocean - PDA (Public Display Of Affection)


I'm convinced this new track from Frank Ocean is a track like those on his Lonny Breaux Collection--OLD. Because the lyrics and sound definitely aren't of the caliber of Nostalgia/Ultra and some of his new material. Posting it nevertheless.

Frank Ocean - White ft. MeLo-X (Gentrification Mix)


Whatever MeLo-X touches turns to gold and his remix of Frank Ocean's "White" is surely no exception. This time, the producer also lends his voice to the track as he spits a nice verse that perfectly captures the message of the song.

Frank Ocean - Whip Appeal


Frank Ocean revives Babyface's coined phrase "Whip Appeal" on his new track that he premiered on Tumblr. In other news, he revealed that his rerelease Nostalgia, Lite is never happening. Let's just hope that means that the new project will be coming sooner than we think!

Gangstas Use Emoticons Radio, Vol. 13: R&B Leaders of the New School


I can't believe there are 13 of these now!
Hip Hop has changed dramatically over the years--almost everything is digital now and rappers can make music to anything because creativity seems endless. I welcome these changes with open arms and although there are a lot of sh*tty artists clogging the Internet, there are also incredible talents that can reach a large audience easier than ever before.

What few seem to notice is that the same movement is happening with R&B.  There are tons of amazing singers and songwriters that are participating in the progressive evolution of this genre that seems to be expanding just as quickly as rap.  I'd like to consider the standouts in R&B our "Leaders of the New School," although many who are just starting to gain major attention have been around in the industry for quite some time.

Check out a Gangstas Use Emoticons Radio, Vol. 13, a showcase of these R&B Leaders of the New School, which includes music from Miguel, Jhené Aiko, Teedra Moses, Frank Ocean, BJ The Chicago Kid, The Weeknd, and more!

New Music: Frank Ocean - Best Seller

Pharrell Says Frank Ocean Is a "Black James Taylor"


Pharrell spoke very highly of Frank Ocean in his most recent interview for Vibe Magazine.  Apparently, Pharrell's been helping him out on his debut album.  I can only imagine how dope a song between the two of them would be.  Watch above as Pharrell explains how he and Frank Ocean started making music.

New Music Video: Frank Ocean - Swim Good


"Swim Good" was one of my late favorites from Nostalgia, Ultra. It got me through some really tough times.  I'm glad to see that "Swim Good" has a video. Watch the Nabil directed video below:

New Music Video: Frank Ocean - Thinking About You



A little over a week ago, an unofficial music video for Jay-Z & Kanye West's "No Church in the Wild" featuring Frank Ocean made a lot of waves. The creators, known as the High 5 Collective, are back with the OFFICIAL video to Frank Ocean's "Thinking About You."



I'm surprised to see that Frank is doing a video for a song that he wrote for someone else, but it is his property.  I still like Bridget Kelly's version better.

Gangstas Use Emoticons Radio: Volume 6

DJ Bankhead has officially retired. It was fun while it lasted, but I'm serious this time.

The official, REAL DEAL stage name is............ DJ Hourglass!
(If you wanna know why, ask somebody)

I've been doing tribute editions for the past 2 weeks and it's time to get back to that new s**t!  This mix is probably the most well rounded--ranging from mainstream to underground, club bangers to love songs.  Volume 6 features new music from artists including the Billboard toppers of The Throne, Big K.R.I.T., Meek Mill, and Wale.

Also in the mix are two rappers from the 2 cities nearest to my heart--Charlotte and St. Louis.  QC representer  C-Weav is the founder of record label So Key Entertainment whose mixtape Mixed Feelings is a must download.  Bryant Stewart, the hardest working rapper in St. Louis, just released "I Made This Last Week," a project which he made...in one week.  Doesn't sound like it.

Listen to DJ Hourglass's GUE Radio, Vol. 6 below!
Make sure you hit the jump for the full tracklisting!!

New Music: Bridget Kelly: Thinkin' Bout You


Sooooo last week, I posted new music from Frank Ocean called "Thinkin' Bout You." Turns out that it was a reference track for Roc Nation's first lady, Bridget Kelly. For me, she's best known for singing "In Newwwwwwww Yooooooooooork" as the sub for Alicia Keys.  Her voice definitely does the Ocean-penned track justice.

Listen/download below:


Alright, I'm about to drive 10 hours to Atlanta so I'll catch y'all on the flipside. Stay G. Use emoticons.
