New Music: T-Pain - Drowning Again (Bad Side Pt. II)

In atypical fashion, T-Pain introduced us to his second single "Drowning Again" with a music video first where he showed off his vulnerable side and stripped away his usual auto-tuned vocals.  Listen to the track below, and make sure you let me know via Twitter or Facebook if you like this side of T-Pain!

New Music Video: Terius Nash (The-Dream) ft. Big Sean - Ghetto

Mr. Nash has done incredibly well putting out his 1977 project considering he spent his own money for  everything--recording, publicity and more.  Thankfully he also put money towards videography, because we now have visuals from my favorite track on the album, "Ghetto" featuring Big Sean.  Check it out below as he takes us through Atlanta in this new video!

No I.D. Makes $ense ('92-'11) [New Mixtape]

No I.D. has accomplished A LOT during his almost twenty years in the hip hop industry.  He's produced some incredible songs and he's definitely not close to stopping.  With Cocaine 80s, his work with G.O.O.D. Music, and his position as the new V.P. of A&R at Def Jam, there's nowhere to go but up for the Chicagoan.

In honor of all of No I.D.'s success, No I.D. Makes $ense, a mixtape boasting some of his most monumental production has been compiled.  Peep the full tracklisting and download link after the jump!

Common - Let's Move [VIDEO]

Common's "Let's Move" is an unreleased track that tells a great story about life in Chicago.  To make the story even more vivid, visual artist dsteele created a video incorporating his own sketches.  This is pretty nice, and I'm definitely feeling the song.  Not sure if it's old or if it will appear on The Dreamer, The Believer yet, but I'll let you know!
