New Music: Lloyd Banks - Shock The World (CDQ)

I was hoping for there to be an updated CDQ for this new Lloyd Banks banger by now but I'll let you get the radio rip for now! "Shock the World" is an Swizz Beatz sampled, Automatik produced track that I'm sure will be dominating the club scene within the next few weeks.  Banks' upcoming mixtape Cold Corner 2 is coming soon!

New Music: Exile - When Nothing's Left ft. Blu

My favorite project from either Exile and Blu was their collaborative effort, Below The Heavens.  The two reunite for the dope Exile produced track "When Nothing's Left" that will be featured on Exile's 10.4.11 release, 4TrkMind. I'll DEFINITELY post that as soon as it drops, gangstas!
