Killer Mike - Don't Die


Killer Mike continues to amaze me with each track he reveals from his forthcoming album R.A.P. Music. "Don't Die" is the latest vivid leak from the album, produced entirely by El-P, and it's clear where his influence lies on this track. Loving the Public Enemy and NWA vibes. Don't sleep when May 15th rolls around!

ANTHM ft. Black Rob - Stolen Whips


ANTHM, the self dubbed "No Cosign," won the respect of veteran emcee Black Rob after covering the New York heavyweight's classic with The Lox, "Can I Live." After recognizing the talent of the Duke grad, the two got in the studio to create the spanish guitar laced track "Stolen Whips." Check out the track below, and hit the jump to see some footage of their studio session!

Los - Wit My Hoodie On (Trayvon Martin Tribute)


Los could have easily been in Trayvon Martin's place right now, and he expresses that sentiment on the tribute track "Wit My Hoodie On." I still find it impossible that George Zimmerman is still a free man after killing Trayvon for nothing but seeing his skin and his clothing.

Kendrick Lamar ft. Dr. Dre - The Recipe [Prod. by Scoop DeVille]


From the second I found out Kendrick Lamar's new single was coming out today, I couldn't stop thinking about it. I've said it before and I'll say it again that he's my favorite rapper out, period. With backing from Dr. Dre and TDE's recent deal with Aftermath, I hope more of the world will hear how prolific he is so early in his career.

Feast your ears on the first single from his major label debut album (which may be titled Good Kid In A Mad City), "The Recipe," which features a verse from Dre and production from veteran West Coast producer Scoop DeVille. The single, which was originally titled "Women, Weed & Weather," will be on iTunes later on today!
