[Music Video] Big Sean ft. Jhené Aiko & Lil Wayne - "Beware"

After Kendrick Lamar stole the show on Big Sean's "Control," it's good to see that Sean is returning the the focus back to promoting his singles that will land on August 27's Hall Of Fame. Check out the trippy visuals to the Lil Wayne and Jhené Aiko featured "Beware" below, and hit the jump to catch Sean and Jhené's recent performance of the track on Jimmy Kimmel live.

Big Sean - "Fire"

Today, in a time where ridiculous publicity stunts like fake proposals are key reasons why people listen to music, it's refreshing to see that tracks like Big Sean's "Fire" can be appreciated without any huge banners or announcements leading up to the release. In fact, the Hall Of Fame track wasn't supposed to hit the net, but a premature leak caused Sean to let the passionate track loose for his fans.

Stream "Fire" below, and let me know if you'll be copping Big Sean's sophomore album Hall Of Fame when it hits stores August 27.

Big Sean ft. Lil Wayne & Jhené Aiko - "Beware"

Now with his sophomore album Hall Of Fame officially slated for an August 27th release, he rolls out another single attempt with "Beware" featuring the "Comfort Inn Ending" songstress and Lil Wayne.

G's Use Emoticons Radio: The Re-Up (Mixed By @DJHourglass)

I took a little sabbatical from blogging late last year to shift my focus a little more from reporting what kind of music was out there to creating. While I plan to continue sharing great music with all my loyal G's out there, look forward to more mixes which I intend to make better with each and every edition.

During my brief break, I put together The Re-Up, which a lot of people seemed to enjoy and pass around. Since it's the weekend it's the perfect time to give this a spin and take a nice, healthy shot of Turnup juice. Check out the rest of the repertoire on Mixcloud and be sure to let your support be known!

CyHi The Prynce - Ivy League Club [New Mixtape]

You know I'm excited about this one. Royal Flush 2 was easily one of my favorite tapes last year.

CyHi The Prynce plans to silence all of the claims that he is low on the G.O.O.D. Music totem pole by showing off why he was signed by Kanye in the first place--HE CAN SPIT. With a load of features from Chris Brown, Big Sean, B.o.B, Big K.R.I.T., ScHoolboy Q, Lloyd, Travis Porter, The Ivy League Club seems bound to make a really positive impact on determining how high the Atlanta emcee will rank among his class.

Yesterday, DJ Orator premiered Chris Brown and Game's freestyle over "I Don't Like," and the bottle throwing incident, which seemed to be a thing of the past, was hashed right back up. Do you think Drake should/will respond to Chris's diss record?

“A fuck ni**a, that’s that shit I don’t like/ They throwin’ bottles, I’m throwin’ models just ’cause I give a bitch long pipe,” raps Breezy. “I be singin’, he be singin’, so it’s on, fight/ But hold up, I ain’t give a ni**a no green light/ This head up, my bread up, one on one, what you scared, bruh?/ Matter fact, take care bruh, you a pu**y ni**a/ My ni**a Tunechi, yeah that ni**a nice/ Shout out to Nicki, man, that ass tight/ Them eyebrows, man, them shits is yikes/ OVO, you overdosed, screamin’ YOLO no, I live twice.”
