Mikky Ekko - "Pull Me Down" (The Internet Remix)

Even if you think you've never heard of Mikky Ekko, chances are you've sung along to "Stay" on Rihanna's latest album Unapologetic. His solo repertoire, however, is more impressive than the RiRi feature and the amount of remixes of his Clams Casino produced "Pull Me Down" is proof of that.

If I had to spotlight one remix in particular--which I am--, the Nashville musician's single sounds best in the hands of Odd Future duo The Internet. Enjoy Syd The Kid and Matt Martian's remix of "Pull Me Down" below, and be sure to check out their original tracks HERE.

Jon Connor - "Tour Life"

For everyone who's classified Jon Connor strictly as a freestyle emcee or a conscious rapper, dig a little deeper to his music or simply check out his latest track "Tour Life."

I'm sure there are tons of things he can't divulge, but a few ratchet tales make their way over a beat sampling "Remind Me" by Röyksopp and I'm not mad at it.

Rickie Jacobs - "Aiden" (Prod. by King Tut)

Rickie Jacobs is a man of many titles, but after hearing his song "Aiden," it seems that that of Father is his proudest. Listen to the latest leak from Songs For High School Kids, which is dedicated to his little one, and catch a special appearance from Aiden himself at the end. Take that Blue Ivy!

SFHSK is set to drop on March 4th.

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.
