[Video] Janelle Monae Covers Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" With The Roots On Jimmy Fallon

[Music Video] Drake - "5AM In Toronto"

Drake's latest vent "5AM In Toronto" was so nice lyrically, even his biggest and most hilarious naysayer Big Ghost couldn't find much to hate on. Now the OVO general releases a visual to accompany the unofficial single, which shows him out with his team at what looks like... 5AM in Toronto.

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!

[Music Video] Chris Brown - "Fine China" + Hot 97 Interview With Angie Martinez [Video]

Taking a page from his hero Michael Jackson's book, Chris Brown debuts his new single "Fine China" with a short film kit with a starcrossed lovers backdrop and martial arts inspired dance scenes. His forthcoming album X is set to hit stores this summer, and the singer hopes to have released 10 visuals for the project come its release.



Chris Brown recently had some words for Drake, on the remix to "R.I.P.," but hit the jump to see his recent interview with Angie Martinez to see if he and Rihanna actually discuss the beef for which she seems to be the underlying trigger.

[Music Video] Tyler, The Creator - "IFHY" + 'Wolf' [Album Stream]

Tyler, The Creator plans to release his album Wolf tomorrow, and both the critics and fans are giving the Odd Future general his props on this one. The Sony distributed album is a proper follow up to his previous efforts Bastard and Goblin as we find Tyler in a more elevated creative space in terms of  production and lyrical delivery.

While Odd Future videos have always been entertaining, Tyler also stepped up his game in the visual department. Watch below as he brings a Mattel themed nightmare to life in the visuals to the Pharrell featured "IFHY."


To hear how the rest of Wolf sounds before it hits stores tomorrow, stream the album in full after the jump!

[Video] Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, ScHoolboy Q & Jay Rock Headline Paid Dues 2013

Black Hippy headlined this year's Paid Dues Festival as Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, ScHoolboy Q, and Jay Rock performed a handful of collaborations and solo tracks from their already deep collection.

Courtesy of Hip Hop Heisenberg, catch clips from their Paid Dues set, which include a few tracks from good kid, m.A.A.d city and ScHoolboy Q's latest single.

Kendrick Lamar - "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe (Remix)"


Black Hippy - "Black Lip Bastard (Remix)"

Young Jeezy - "R.I.P." (Remix) ft. YG, Kendrick Lamar & Chris Brown

It's safe to say that Young Jeezy's "R.I.P." brings life to the club, and it looks like the single isn't going anywhere as he recruited West Coast heavyweights Kendrick Lamar and YG to appear alongside him on the remix.

I'm not shocked that K. Dot spits the best verse on the remix, but I am surprised that I'm giving #2 to Chris Brown, who comes for Drake on his sixteen saying: "And if you started from the bottom gon' and come out the closet." Let the subliminal shots continue!
