New Music: The Kid Daytona ft. Action Bronson - Ivory Coast Crime Scene

This is probably the most interesting song title I've seen in a while.

The Kid Daytona is back with another great track from his upcoming project Interlude 2.  This time he grabs fellow NY spitta Action Bronson and gets busy over a 6th sense produced track that definitely has African influences.

Check out the song below, and make sure you prepare yourself for December 19th when Interlude 2 drops!

Elle Varner Performs Acoustic Versions of "Only Wanna Give It To You" & "So Fly" In Dallas [VIDEO]

After reading up on Elle Varner, I learned that she's more than a typical R&B singer.  She comes from a family of songwriters and has been playing musical instruments since the age of six.  Recently she stopped by Dallas' 97.9 The Beat and gave us a sample of what she's really about as she performed her hit "Only Wanna Give It To You" and demo track "So Fly" with just a guitar and the help of beat boxer Anointed S.  Watch the extremely impressive performance below, and be on the lookout for her debut album Perfectly Imperfect!
