STREAM: Smino – blkswn
St. Louis rapper Smino delivers his new project blkswn, produced by Monte Booker. As far as why he chose today to drop it:
March 14 is my hometown holiday. St. Louis sounds like midnight at the River Front at all times to me. It’s slowed down but turned up. People here speak from the heart, even our trap rappers speak that blues.

Did Goldlink Steal From Another Artist? (UPDATE)
UPDATE: Goldlink has responded (below).
So, we were in the middle of posting GoldLink’s new — and very dope — track ‘Meditation’, which features Jasmine Sullivan and sees production from KAYTRANADA, when an artist named Smilo revealed a track of his own that has clear similarities. Check out both below…did Goldlink steal these lyrics? Or worse — is there a ghostwriter situation at play a la Drake?

“I still see ya, I still see ya
Doin’ everything that we said we gon’ do
Girl I still see ya, I still see ya
Puttin’ all my pride and my girls to the side
‘Cause I still see ya, I still see ya
Smokin’ all my weed, bend the corners in the streets
I can still see ya, I still see ya
You wanna be me, I wanna eat ya
I wanna meet your ex, so I can beat him
And have a daughter, and be a teacher
And never follow, and be a leader
And baby girl, I still see ya
I got a light-skinned bitch who look like Beige Loaf
And she fight and fuck me in the same clothes
But when I put that daddy, baby daddy, papa stroke
She curl her toes and close her eyes
I finish up, she adios”
Young Dolph Feat. Gucci Mane – That’s How I Feel
If you haven’t heard, Young Dolph experienced some, er, conflict during CIAA weekend when an unknown assailant shot up his (bulletproof) SUV. Well, the Memphis emcee addresses that on his new track ‘That’s How I Feel’, which features Gucci Mane and is taken from the upcoming project Bulletproof (he really doesn’t GAF; the tracklisting reads like an actual response to what happened).
So….what’s Yo Gotti thinking right about now?

Raekwon Feat. Lil Wayne – My Corner
For 25 years, Raekwon has been one of the most sought out voices in music; a true originator of lyricism, street fashion and inventive music. On 3-24-2017 the legendary emcee will release his seventh solo album The Wild. Released through his own IceH20 imprint along with EMPIRE, the album is a stark commentary on both the world and the music industry–everything is wild, Rae notes, alluding to his new album’s symbolic title.
With so much uncertainty in the world, it’s never been more apparent that this jungle needs order; and as the apex predator within hip-hop’s jungle, Raekwon plans to restore order with The Wild.
Today, via an exclusive premiere with Rolling Stone, Raekwon releases the second single from The Wild, “My Corner,” which features Lil Wayne.
“Wayne is a charismatic individual and his flows are dumb delightful” Raekwon commented to Rolling Stone. “I studied him way back and appreciated the opportunity to trade bars with him. I always heard his voice on this and I was very pleased hearing him tap dance on a different style of production. “My Corner” is a flashback to them good ole terrible blocks and we take you back to all black outfits. This record must be played at high volume.”
