[Music Video] Lolah Brown ft. BJ The Chicago Kid - "History"

Lolah Brown and BJ The Chicago Kid might have you going through that forbidden section of your contacts after watching this one.

The Cleveland songstress, who has sung background vocals for John Legend, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj, won me over with her track "History" produced by Mnkywrench of Fly.Union. Take a glance at the visuals to below, and hit the jump to download Lolah Brown's latest effort Black Lily.

Justin Timberlake ft. Jay-Z - "Suit & Tie" (Prod. by Timbaland)

It's been waaaay to long, but it looks like Justin Timberlake is ready to reclaim his position. With a new album The 20/20 Experience in the works, he premieres the project's lead single "Suit & Tie" produced by none other than Timbaland The Y's.

The two tiered track has all the makings of a hit single, and there's a nice verse from Jay-Z at the end to put the cherry on top of it all. Stream "Suit & Tie" below, and cop the single on iTunes if you're all for JT's comeback.

Cocaine 80's - The Flower Of Life [FreEP]

I was up at 5:41 celebrating Delta's Centeniall (OO-OOP) and to make things better, I see a tweet from James Fauntleroy with the zip for Cocaine 80's The Flower Of Life. What more can you ask for on 1.13.13?

Download the project below which features "Fly Ass Pisces" and six other tracks by No I.D., Fauntleroy, Jhene Aiko, Common and more.

Cocaine 80's ft. Jhene Aiko & Common - "Fly Ass Pisces"

Cocaine 80s is always lowkey with their releases, so I'm excited I caught this track on Twitter. Now that Jhené Aiko is down with the Artium clique, she, No I.D., James Fauntleroy and co. have been making beautiful music together. Add extended family Common to the equation and you get  "Fly Ass Pisces." Keep this one on repeat until Cocaine 80s drops its fourth project, Flower Of Life EP.

Frank Ocean ft. Big Boi & Andre 3000 - "Pink Matter" (Remix)

I remember Big Boi saying that he wanted to appear along with Andre 3000 on Frank Ocean's "Pink Matter," but of course legal mumbo jumbo wouldn't allow it.  Instead, we get an unofficial Outkast reunion as Sir Lucious adds a verse to the Channel Orange favorite.

Future ft. Drake - "Fo Real"

There were rumors that Future and Drake had some bad blood after their collab on "Tony Montana," but it seems all is well as the two collab over a Mike Will production on "Fo Real." Look for Future's Free Band Gang: The Movie to hit the net in two days on 1.13.

Rockie Fresh ft. Lunice (of TNGHT) - "Superman OG"

I just started getting into TNGHT, and I'm glad to see that Rockie Fresh linked up with 1/2 of the duo on "Superman OG." Fresh proves that MMG is even stronger now that he's a part of the team and plans to present Electric Highway, his first project since his signing, on January 21st.

Pusha T ft. Rick Ross - "Millions"

Pusha T plans to make us wait for his mixtape Wrath Of Caine just like we're waiting on his G.O.O.D. Music debut album My Name Is My Name to hit stores. Push's streak of dark bangers like "Pain" continues as he and Rick Ross collab on "Millions."
