Iggy Azalea - Roman In Moscow (Freestyle)


With Iggy Azalea recently admitting in an interview in Vibe that she and Harlem's golden boy A$AP Rocky are an item and with rumors circulating that Iggy Azalia is going to be Def Jam's newest female emcee, the spotlight is definitely on the Australian born rapper.  She's confronting all of the attention and negativity that comes with the territory by borrowing Nicki's "Roman In Moscow" track on this new freestyle.

Take a listen for yourself and let me know what you think about her abilities.  Is she the real deal or do you think she's 2012's next fad? Hit me up on Facebook or Twitter with your opinion!

Yasiin Bey - Ni**as In Poorest


When Watch The Throne dropped the most frequently heard complaint about the album was that it focused too much on luxury and contained too much bragging about how much Jay-Z & Kanye West had accomplished.  While I slightly disagree, Mos Def Yasiin Bey put is probably the only rapper original enough to take the mega-hit "Niggas In Paris" and spin it to address how poverty has effected America.

Great start to Martin Luther King Day!

Expect more freestyles from Yasiin, who will be releasing more covers on his Top 40 Underdog project.

Jennifer Hudson - Think Like A Man feat. Ne-Yo & Rick Ross


Jennifer Hudson, Ne-Yo, and Rick Ross have come together for the title track from the upcoming movie Think Like A Man, which is based off of Steve Harvey's bestselling book of the same name.  I'm usually not a fan of Jennifer Hudson's music, but this song I can mess with.

Ricco Barrino - Twenty 12 Play [New Mixtape]


If you couldn't tell by the title, get ready for some #Sertafied music right in time for the weekend.  Grand Hustle representer Ricco Barrino has been at it for years now, and I think its about time the North Carolina singer gets his due.  "Red Bottoms," his collaboration with my homie Gav Beats has already taken off in the South, and with more standout tracks, Twenty 12 Play has all of the ingredients to propel Ricco to the top of the list of R&B's talented vocalists.

Stream and download Twenty 12 Play below, and hit the jump to watch the music video for "Red Bottoms!"

Trae Tha Truth - Rack City (Freestyle)


Trae Tha Truth drops off another quick 16 from his mixtape King of The Streets Freestyles that drops next Tuesday.  On this freestyle, he goes over Young Jeezy's remix of the Tyga smash "Rack City." There's something about Trae's voice that makes me forget I've heard this beat a million times.

Tony Williams - Some Of My Best Rappers Are Friends [New Mixtape]



I'll admit that I was pretty ignorant to how much The World Famous Tony Williams has accomplished as an R&B artist.  He has provided vocals on popular songs from Kanye West, Jay-Z, Game, and Rick Ross, and now plans to take the world by storm with his debut album King Or The Fool.  

For now, he's getting us prepped for the album with the very generous, track mixtape, Some Of My Best Rappers Are Friends.  Tony's definitely got a lot of friends because the project features everyone from Big K.R.I.T, Wale, Mickey Facts, STS, and Emilio Rojas to GLC, CyHi The Prynce, Fonzworth Bentley, The Kid Daytona and more!  Download the tape below, and hit the jump to view his perspective on the union between Hip Hop & R&B!




Kid Ink - Time Of Your Life


I've got to admit that I haven't paid much attention to Kid Ink, but it's kind of hard for his music to not show up on my computer screen now.  I guess I'm right on time because his new single "Time Of Your Life" officially dropped today.  Take a listen to this new Kid Ink, and let me know if you want to hear more of him on Gangstas Use Emoticons!
