Maxine Ashley ft. Lil Wayne - Hot Thing (Prod. by Pharrell)

I became a fan of Star Trak signed artist Maxine Ashley after watching her kill every cover she sang on her YouTube channel. The Bronx bred singer is ready to show off her original material as she drops her new Pharrell produced single "Hot Thing," which features Weezy Flamingo Baby.

BANGER.

STS - When Night Falls (Chromeo Flip) [Music Video]

"When The Night Falls" with Solange is one of my Chromeo tracks, and I've come to the conclusion that I'd melt if I ever saw STS's music collection. Check out Slim's flip of the 80s tinged track and make sure you prepare yourself for GOLDRush 2 by checking out the first mixtape!

Machine Gun Kelly ft. 2 Chainz, Mystikal, Meek Mill, French Montana, Yo Gotti & Steve-O - Wild Boy (Remix) [Music Video]

The fact that Machine Gun Kelly was able to get all of the artists on his "Wild Boy" remix to show up for a video shoot is pretty damn impressive. The fact that he and Steve-O played a pretty gross Jackass like joke on his friend and lived to tell about it is even more impressive.

Check out the visuals to the remix below, which features footage from MGK's "Wild" time for SXSW in Austin, Texas.

Usher's officially set to release his 7th album Looking For Myself on June 12th, and he's not putting himself in a box with this one.
