New Music: J. Cole's Any Given Sunday, Vol. 1

In anticipation of Cole World: The Sideline Story, J. Cole is quenching our thirsts (or at least mine and the rest of the AlColeholics) by releasing a 5 track mixtape.  Since it's listed as "#1," let's hope we get another dose soon.

Previously: J. Cole x Trey Songz: Can't Get Enough 

New Music: Drake: Headlines

New music from Drake produced by Boi1da and 40.  It's an official leak single from Drake's Take Care so it probably won't be on the album. Dope beat. It'll probably take a few listens from me to gauge my opinion.

Shouts to October's Very Own

Listen/Download "Headlines" below:



Happy Sunday and Take Care.

Beyoncé x The Roots on Jimmy Fallon LIve

With a little help from the Roots, Beyoncé switches it up a bit as she performs "Best Thing I Never Had."  I'm feelin' it.

Shouts to GoWhereHipHop.

Got Beef: Consequence vs. G.O.O.D. Music

Looks like Consequence is out for blood...  :O

Since his departure from G.O.O.D. Music, Consequence has been very vocal about the problems leading up to his dismissal from the label(Hit the jump for his MTV Rap Fix interview with Sway).  It seemed like Consequence was Kanye West's right hand man when Kanye was first rising to stardom.  However, as the G.O.O.D. Music roster got a little larger and Kanye became an icon in the industry, Consequence was seen less and less.  The reasons behind his lack of exposure are often speculated.

Consequence claims that he was used and mistreated by Kanye West and had to practically fight to be featured on tracks.  He was notably removed from XXL's G.O.O.D Music feature and wasn't present in the acclaimed G.O.O.D. music cypher from the 2010 BET Hip Hop Awards.

New Music: Frank Ocean: Thinkin' Bout You

New music from OFWGKTA crooner Frank Ocean.  In my eyes, he can do no wrong after Nostalgia/ultra, which I haven't stopped listening to for months.  Nice to hear Frank's range on this track, and I hope some more music leaks.  

Rumor has it, Frank Ocean will be opening for the Watch the Throne tour this fall. I'm crossing my fingers.

New Music Video: Body 2 Body (Ace Hood x Chris Brown)

New music video from Ace Hood featuring Chris Brown. Looks like he's about to be able to get his baby some shoes.  Nice change from the last 2 "motivational" singles he's released lately.

Download the track after the jump!

Freestylin: Black Hippy

Black Hippy (Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock, Ab Soul & Schoolboy Q) graced the Toca Tuesdays and left some heat on the mic.  Shouts to 2dopeboyz.

Jay Rock's Follow Me Home is in stores and on iTunes TODAY.

New Music: DJ Drama x Big Sean x 2 Chainz x Trey Songz: Oh My Remix

New music from DJ Drama.  The original dropped around the time of "I'm on One" and hasn't been getting its fair play on radio ever since.  Maybe the remix will be different. Listen/DL below.

DJ Drama: Oh My (Remix) f/ Trey Songz, Big Sean, 2 Chainz



Catch the original on GUE Radio Vol. 3: Waka's Retirement.

SN: 2 Chainz (Tity Boi) has been all over the place this summer.

J. Cole feat. Trey Songz - Can't Get Enough

NORTH CAROLINA STAND UP!

New music from J. Cole and Trey Songz.  It's got an old school Timbaland feel to it, and it's definitely not the typical Trey Songz collab.  

No word if this is the final cut or on the album, but enjoy.  Sounds like it needs to be mastered. Shouts to How Fly Hip Hop

J. Cole f/ Trey Songz: Can't Get Enough

Cole World: The Sideline Story is set to be released 9/27.

Hit the jump to see J. Cole talk about his Jay-Z collab and a silly video showing him at Krispy Kreme.
