Kap G – La Policia (Remix) ft. TI & David Banner
Kap G recruits TIP and David Banner for the remix to his protest track. The Fader premiered it, adding thoughts from all three artists. I’m not sure how well TI fit on this, but he had a solid verse. Banner’s quote was my favorite; “From the beginning, the relationship between police departments and communities of color has been a tumultuous one. For too long, some officers have abused their authority and have not upheld their commitment to protect and serve all members of the community.”

Rick Ross – Phone Tap/Dog Food
Rick Ross takes off to Geneva for the cinematic “Phone Tap” video. Rozay also leaks a record with Lex Luger that wasn’t on the Hood Billionaire album. “Dog Food” sounds like it was made back during Lex’s 2011 takeover. Say what you want about the MMG head but he consistently puts out the music his audience wants, and they play it all the time. Ross is up there with Gucci and Juicy J for most frequently heard blasting out of cars in the hood.
Yast – When You’re Around
A lovely dreamy and kind of jammy track by Yast of Adrian Recordings in Sweden. “When You’re Around” is reminsicent of The Cure and early 90s dream pop (ie Dinosaur Jr and Jesus and Mary Chain?). It’s a great track that will make your head swoon.
Speedy Ortiz – Puffer
A heavier track from Speedy Ortiz from the local Carpark Records. “Puffer” follows the excellent “Raising the Skate,” in anticipation of Speedy Ortiz’ album Deerfoil. The track starts off with a thumping bass and churning guitars that rise into a dark chorus full of expectation and lusty vocals. If it all sounds too harsh, it’s catchy nonetheless.
