Outkast - "B.O.B." (WoodysProduce Remix)
It seems as if Woody is taking on all of the greats as he plans to drop his Outkast remix mixtape on February 11, following the success of his Biggie and Kanye remix projects. "B.O.B.," a Stankonia classic known for its high energy, gets the Woody treatment and is transformed into a track with more of a down home southern feel to it.
Hit the comments with your thoughts, and be sure to cop the OutKast x WoodysProduce Remixtape when it hits the net 2.11.13.

Stacy Barthe ft. Rick Ross - "Hell Yeah"
If "Hell Yeah" is any indication, P.S. I Love You will be an EP of equally epic proportions as Stacy Barthe's album quality projects Sincerely Yours and In The InBetween.
With strong lyrics balanced out by a smooth track from K. Roosevelt, the guest verse from Rick Ross on "Hell Yeah," puts the cherry on top to this P.S. I Love You standout. The EP will be upon us on Valentine's Day.

[Video] Beyoncé's Super Bowl XLVII Halftime Show
If you missed the Beyoncé performance last night that was opened by the Baltimore onslaught of the 49ers in the first half of Super Bowl XLVII, gaze your eyes on vaseline coated thighs and power outage inducing lights below. Even if you watched it last night, join the party (and the Keyshia Cole slander) and watch Mrs. Carter and her Destiny's Child sisters Kelly and Michelle kill it in front of the packed stadium. Congrats Ravens!

Bridget Kelly ft. Meek Mill - "In The Morning" (Remix)
I had the pleasure of meeting Roc Nation talent Bridget Kelly last week, and was pleased to hear that "In The Morning" would be one of the few tracks from her Every Girl EP to make it on to her debut album. The Ne-Yo penned track is something all of us drunk dialers can relate to, and to take the single to the next level, Bridget recruited Roc companion Meek Mill for the remix.
Stream the remix to "In The Morning" below, and make sure you request her single "Special Delivery" at your local radio stations. Her new album is CRAZY.

Drake - "Started From The Bottom" (Prod. by Mike Zombie)
It was originally rumored that Drake would be releasing this track on Grammy night, but it seems like there's been enough waiting. Stream his new single "Started From The Bottom" below, and check out his letter to his fans that coincided with the release:
My good friends,
It has truly been too long. I assume you're all keeping well and making the most of this year that has been given to us. Today is the day to begin sharing my newest work with you. This is the first single off of my upcoming album. I feel sometimes that people don't have enough information about my beginnings and therefore they make up a life story for me that isn't consistent with actual events. My family and my second family (consisting of the best friends anybody could ever have) all struggled and worked extremely hard to make all this happen. I did not buy my way into this spot and it was the furthest thing from easy to achieve. I am proud of every part of my past and I'm excited for this song to find a place in your life as well. I didn't feel I needed any interviews or radio or press to launch this song. It felt right to come back to the site that I started on and release it to the people that started here with me. Judging by this post, the tour that we've been planning, the conversations about new songs and album artwork...I think it's safe to say we're back together again. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
"You don't have to ask me how I'm doing...just listen to the music" - K.Samir
Drake's trademark dark formula blended with a west coast sound and a club ready hook. Sounds like a hit to me.

The Melker Project - "(2) Chain (z)" ft. Fleetwood Mac & 2 Chainz
The best mashups are the ones that come from left field. Who would've thought that 2 Chainz and Fleetwood Mac together could create something this dope? Scott Melker, that's who.
Fleetwood Mac is one of the greatest bands ever. Producers rarely remix Fleetwood Mac. Why you ask? Most remixers and mashup artists focus solely on what is “hot” now – you know, pop songs and EDM “hits.” The Melker Project wanted to buck the trend and introduce mashup fans to some of the timeless classics that often go untouched in remix culture. You know, GOOD songs.
“Skeetwood Mac” is the first in a series of EPs being released by The Melker Project, each focusing on a different classic artist. As the name implies, this EP is comprised of five Fleetwood Mac songs, each mashed up with Hip Hop and R&B standards.
This track features the Fleetwood Mac classic "The Chain" mixed with a 2 Chainz instrumental and 3 2 Chainz verses. "The (2) Chain (z)." Clever, right?
Just because it's amazing, hit the jump to listen to The Melker Project 2, a 52 minute mix in which Melker uses over 200 tracks for our attention deficient enjoyment.

In case you haven't peeped his project which features the previously posted "Whoa," "A-Town," "Round Da Corner" and "Far Removed," stream Kick Back below.

[Video] Trinidad James ft. ForteBowie - "Southside"
With a single out that probably gets stuck in your head twice a day, a new deal with Def Jam, and a video that people are still spoofing, don't expect Trinidad Jame$ to go anywhere any time soon.
Still taking time to promote the mixtape that catapulted him to being one of the most talked about rappers this year, he drops the visuals to the Don't Be S.A.F.E. standout "Southside." Watch below as he and and Forte Bowie take over J Pauls, and hit the jump to stream the rest of the tape.
