Wale - "LoveHate Thing" ft. Sam Dew

While Wale's commercial smash "Bad" makes its way around the airwaves, Folarin dropped his new single showcasing the elements of his artistry that first put him on the map.

Stream "LoveHate Thing" featuring Roc Nation singer and "Lotus Flower Bomb" co-penner Sam Dew below, and click HERE to preorder Wale's third album The Gifted set to hit stores on June 25. Artwork and tracklisting after the jump.

Laelo ft. Gods'illa - "Back At It (For The People)"

Laelo took off nearly a year without releasing new music in High Definition, but the DMV emcee is refreshed and ready to use his voice for spreading positive energy back to the people.  Produced by the HDSociety's own Str8 Beatz, "Back At It" showcases Laelo and hip hop trio Gods'illa striving to put some substance back into the music. Nothing better than balance, folks!

Nicole Wray's voice has always been something special, and thankfully for us, the "Make It Hot" singer is still sharing her vocals with the world as she and London singer Terri Walker have banded together to form Lady.

Their self titled debut album is a nostalgic trip to the Motown era as Nicole and Terri add their current R&B spin to a classic sound. Courtesy of Rolling Stone, stream Lady in full after the jump, but first watch the visuals to their single "Get Ready."

[New Mixtape] Pusha T - Wrath Of Caine

It's been a while since we've received a full solo project from Pusha T, but 2013 will be the year the G.O.O.D. Music emcee floods us with quality tracks. First up is his mixtape Wrath Of Caine, and next up will be his solo debut LP My Name Is My Name.

Enjoy the project below, which features verses from Rick Ross, French Montana, Troy Ave, Wale, and more. My favorite so far: "Revolution" produced by The Neptunes.

[Video] Wale - "Never Never"

"Never Never" is definitely a deep cut from Wale's latest mixtape Folarin, and I'm definitely glad he gave this jazzy freestyle the visual treatment. Watch below as he switches up is flow and gives us something reminiscent of Hov back in '96...
