New Mixtape: Wale – Before I SHINE (w/ DJ Luna)
Something to hold the fans over until SHINE finally drops. Featuring previously heard tracks ‘Heisman Watch’, ‘Groundhog Day’ and Wale’s remix of Ed Sheeran’s ‘Shape of You’. The D.C. rapper’s ‘Nas Is Like’ freestyle and his addition to WillThaRapper’s ‘Pull Up Hop Out’ also make an appearance.
Jefe (Shy Glizzy ) ft. 21 Savage – No I.D. (Prod. Su$hi Ceej)
Jefe and 21 don’t need “No I.D.” as they flex over a sample-based beat by Ceej from Two-9.
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.
Tino Loud Feat. 3ohBlack, JJ By The Wayy & WillThaRapper – Chase A Check
New D.C. For his latest, Tino Loud drops off a huge posse cut titled ‘Chase A Check’, which features fellow DMV peers 3ohBlack, JJ By The Wayy and WillThaRapper. Check that out below…

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?
Y'all heard dat new GoldLink? Lol pic.twitter.com/p65uKBdQkJ

“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”
Quincy Feat. Al B Sure – I Can Tell You
Father and son connect. Al B. Sure joins Quincy on the new track ‘I Can Tell You’, taken from Quincy’s new EP This Is For You.
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?
