Laelo ft. Gods'illa - "Back At It (For The People)"

Laelo took off nearly a year without releasing new music in High Definition, but the DMV emcee is refreshed and ready to use his voice for spreading positive energy back to the people.  Produced by the HDSociety's own Str8 Beatz, "Back At It" showcases Laelo and hip hop trio Gods'illa striving to put some substance back into the music. Nothing better than balance, folks!

[Music Video] Chris Brown - "Fine China" + Hot 97 Interview With Angie Martinez [Video]

Taking a page from his hero Michael Jackson's book, Chris Brown debuts his new single "Fine China" with a short film kit with a starcrossed lovers backdrop and martial arts inspired dance scenes. His forthcoming album X is set to hit stores this summer, and the singer hopes to have released 10 visuals for the project come its release.



Chris Brown recently had some words for Drake, on the remix to "R.I.P.," but hit the jump to see his recent interview with Angie Martinez to see if he and Rihanna actually discuss the beef for which she seems to be the underlying trigger.

[Music Video] Tyler, The Creator - "IFHY" + 'Wolf' [Album Stream]

Tyler, The Creator plans to release his album Wolf tomorrow, and both the critics and fans are giving the Odd Future general his props on this one. The Sony distributed album is a proper follow up to his previous efforts Bastard and Goblin as we find Tyler in a more elevated creative space in terms of  production and lyrical delivery.

While Odd Future videos have always been entertaining, Tyler also stepped up his game in the visual department. Watch below as he brings a Mattel themed nightmare to life in the visuals to the Pharrell featured "IFHY."


To hear how the rest of Wolf sounds before it hits stores tomorrow, stream the album in full after the jump!

[Video] Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, ScHoolboy Q & Jay Rock Headline Paid Dues 2013

Black Hippy headlined this year's Paid Dues Festival as Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, ScHoolboy Q, and Jay Rock performed a handful of collaborations and solo tracks from their already deep collection.

Courtesy of Hip Hop Heisenberg, catch clips from their Paid Dues set, which include a few tracks from good kid, m.A.A.d city and ScHoolboy Q's latest single.

Kendrick Lamar - "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe (Remix)"


Black Hippy - "Black Lip Bastard (Remix)"

Young Jeezy - "R.I.P." (Remix) ft. YG, Kendrick Lamar & Chris Brown

It's safe to say that Young Jeezy's "R.I.P." brings life to the club, and it looks like the single isn't going anywhere as he recruited West Coast heavyweights Kendrick Lamar and YG to appear alongside him on the remix.

I'm not shocked that K. Dot spits the best verse on the remix, but I am surprised that I'm giving #2 to Chris Brown, who comes for Drake on his sixteen saying: "And if you started from the bottom gon' and come out the closet." Let the subliminal shots continue!

[Lyric Video] B.o.B - "Greedy Love"

B.o.B's mixtape F*ck Em We Ball has few gems that will most likely make his forthcoming third album, which Bobby Ray needs YOUR help naming.

One of those crossover tracks is the Sonny Digital produced "Greedy Love," which B.o.B has announced as the album's first single. Watch the Nightmare Before Christmas-esque lyric video below, and hit the jump for a late pass download of F*ck Em We Ball!

[New Mix] DJ Hourglass - The Pregame

I know, I know. It's been entirely too long since my last mix, but The Pregame was definitely worth the wait. I've got a fresh set-up courtesy of my new Pioneer DDJ-SX's and I'm ready for all my G's to hear what I've been cooking up.

Whether you're having a ratchet night in or getting ready to head out tonight, enjoy! Featuring a handful of remixes, new music from and up and comers August Alsina, Forte Bowie and Alja KaMillion along with club favorites by T.I., Young Jeezy, and Wale, The Pregame is in full effect.

Beyoncé - "I Been On" (Remix) ft. Bun B, Slim Thug, Z-Ro, Scarface, Willie D & Lil Keke

When Beyoncé dropped the dual single "Bow Down/I Been On," the leading track caused so much uproar that I feel the homage she paid to Houston on "I Been On" almost went overlooked.

Thankfully, Houston's all-stars Bun B, Lil Keke, Wille D, Slim Thug, Scarface and Z-Ro reprised the screwed up production to present the remix, which I'm sure will get a grip of spins tonight in the South. Listen to the official Houston remix of "I Been On" below, and hit the comments with your thoughts!



I wish Trae had a verse on this though!

[New Mixtape] STS - 'Gold Rush III'

After showcasing life on his European tour with the visuals to his latest Gold Rush flips, STS presents the third volume of the mixtape series the ATL emcee has now perfected.

With the help of DJ Bear One, Slim takes on tracks from Purity Ring, Kavinsky, Walk The Duck and Gary Clark Jr, and more as he proves his lyrics can be felt over any style of music. Who needs boundaries? Fuck 'em!
