JANELLE MONAE – TIGHTROPE (WONDAMIX) (F/ B.O.B. & LUPE FIASCO)

Here’s a good one for the playlist, and for me to calm my nerves when I realized I missed Janelle Monaé‘s performance tonight at the Chicago Theatre (I did see N.E.R.D. and Erykah Badu, however, #win.) B.o.B. and Lupe jump on the remix to the ArchAndroid‘s ‘Tightrope‘ and do some good things. Partake.

B.O.B. – PAST MY SHADES (F/ LUPE FIASCO)

B.O.B.‘s done his shit quite unorthodox, hasn’t he? First he threw me way the f*ck off with that Haters Everywhere joint he released straight out the box, then came back at you with a much more creative edge and a myriad of musical talent. I suggest if you’re still down on B.O.B. like I was before I decided to delve further into his music, you should get to discovering. Looks like his labelmate Lupe Fiasco understands what I’m talmbout, and as they’re on tour right now with each other, they drop a cool new song together for the public. Indulge, then hit the jump to catch a video of what Lu thinks of Bobby Ray.

B.O.B. – MAY 25TH MIXTAPE

T.I.’s Grand Hustle protege B.o.B. drops his new mixtape in association with DJ Drama x LRG as a pre-cursor to his Adventures of Bobby Ray album, slated to drop May 25th. Hence the name! If you haven’t checked out B.o.B. yet you’re in for a treat, as he’s got an ill diverse style and isn’t rapping about bullshit! Check out one of my favorites off the project, Fuck The Money featuring Asher Roth & produced by Kanye West. Partake!

ILLPOETIC – NIN & OUTKAST: NINE INCH NALIENS

Where did this cat come from? Man this was one left-field project. I give it up to my dude and partner Mark from PLSTK for upping me on Illpoetic. The dude combined two groundbreaking bands into a whole new project. I implore you, listen to this project with new ears because you will not listen to these Outkast tracks the same way again. › Read More…
