Micahfonecheck ft. Kendrick Lamar - Girls In America

I'm going to be the first to admit that the main reason I was drown to give this track a listen was because I saw Kendrick Lamar's named associated with it. I'm glad I did because Micahfonecheck's "Girls In America" is a great track even without the guest verses. The Cali singer's new EP August Rush is coming soon, so I'll keep my eye out!

Truth Hurts ft. Beanie Sigel - The Truth (Set Free) [Prod. by Dr. Dre]

There are a few names in R&B that I never guessed I would hear again, and Truth Hurts is definitely one of them. Remember the R. Kelly & Dr. Dre protege who had the hit single "Contagious?" Yep, that's her.

She's not back with music, but she has "set free" her previously unreleased track with Beanie Sigel, "The Truth." Check out the 20002, Dr. Dre produced cut below, and hit the comments with your thoughts!

Alicia Keys hit the stage during MTV's yearly Upfront event, at LA's Beacon Theatre and premiered her new single "Not Even The King." It sounds like a pretty, alternative love ballad, but there's no word whether it will land on her forthcoming album.

Wale ft. French Montana, Diddy & Mase - Slight Work (Remix)

I saw tweets from MMG this morning that we would never be able to guess who was featured on Wale 's "Slight Work" remix, and they were definitely right. Diddy's former dancing partner in rhyme, Ma$e came out of retirement (IRS is on him!) came out and gave us a soft spoken verse after French Montana and Diddy dropped theirs. What's the future hold for Mase? Hmmmmm...

Update: Splash let loose the CDQ version of the track.

Clearly Wale wrote Diddy's verse; he could barely get the words out.
