Bridget Kelly Explains Frank Ocean "Thinking About You" Origins [VIDEO]


Bridget Kelly is one of my favorite new artists, and her Every Girl EP still gets consistent play on my iTunes thanks to tracks like "Thinking About You" and "In The Morning." In a recent interview with Mina SayWhat, BK explains the situation behind the Frank Ocean penned track and how Frank's demo  kind of overshadowed hers.

Meek Mill - Lean Wit It [Music Video]


Meek Mill's "Lean Wit It" is officially the first single from MMG's Self Made, Vol. 2. Complex just premiered the visuals which show Meek Mill riding motorcycles, something he's done since he was eight years old:
"We didn't have too much money growing up, so I started off riding whatever pedal bike I was able to get my hands on. I got tired of those quickly and started to get into riding the bikes with motors that some of the kids in my neighborhood were putting together with the spare parts they found. Haven't looked back since." - Meek Mill


Self Made, Vol II is coming soon!

Novel - Red Wine & Ambien [Free Album]


Novel is such an eclectic artist that I can't really put him in a box or assign a specific genre to his music.
