M.O. drops September 30th.
Lady Gaga ft. Twista, TI & Too $hort – Jewels & Drugs
Too $hort isn’t the only one who will be featured on Lady Gaga’s upcoming album, ARTPOP. T.I. and Twista appear on the same song, which she recently premiered live. Props to DDot.
Gucci Mane & Young Thug – Puchanella (prod. by Zaytoven)
Gucci Mane and Young Thug go in over a Zaytoven beat. How many unreleased songs does Gucci have in the vault? My guess is thousands.
@TroubleDTE ft. Fredo Santana – I Kno Wassup
A new Trouble joint featuring Fredo with the lazy flow. This is from DJ Fate & DJ Holiday’s new Welcome To The Midwest 3 mixtape.
The Weeknd – Wanderlust (Pharrell Remix)
This beautiful blend will be on The Weeknd’s upcoming album Kiss Land, which drops September 10th (preorder here).
Lil Wayne & DJ Drama – Dedication 5 (Mixtape)
After several false starts (including an April Fools’ style pre-stream), we finally have Lil’ Wayne and DJ Drama’s fifth installment of their Dedication series. You’ve probably heard enough about it at this point; the stream(s), tracklisting and download link(s) is below.
@Hot_Natured Feat. @roisinmurphy – Alternate State
‘Alternate State’ featuring Roisin Murphy is taken from the upcoming album ‘Different Sides of the Sun’, released on 2nd September 2013 [preorder].
Lost Scripts (@JohnTalabot & @pionalmusic) – I’ll Be Watching You
‘I’ll Be Watching You’ is Taken from YT2013/1, first 12″ of the YT2013 series.
YT2013 is a series of uniquely art-worked limited edition 12″s celebrating the music we have and will release in 2013. Each vinyl will feature 2 tracks by Young Turks artists. YT2013/1 will feature Lost Scripts’ ‘I’ll Be Watching You’ and Koreless’ ‘Sun’.
Lil Wayne – ‘Dedication 5′ (Pre-Stream)
UPDATE: You can get the full mixtape here. Below is a so-called “pre-stream”.
****************************************
We thought that Lil Wayne’s Dedication 5 was finally here after a few delays, but its only a stream and the intro for now. Let’s hope we get the full project later today. Dedication 5 has 19 tracks with features from The Weeknd, Chance The Rapper, Future, 2 Chainz, Mack Mane, Vado and more. For now you can stream Dedication 5’s intro below.
Young Thug – Stoner (Prod By Dun Deal)
A new track from Bricksquad auto-tuner Young Thug, produced by Dun Deal.
Panama – The Panama Canal (Mixtape)
NY/Baltimore rapper Panama drops his mixtape, hosted by Mz. Stylez and DJ Boy Wonda.
E Major (@EMajorLC) – She Know It (Prod. E Major)
Check out producer/recording artist E Major’s latest single, the laid back ‘She Know It’, which provides an interesting flip on Rick Ross’s molly line on Rocko’s ‘U.O.E.N.O.’ Lookout for some new music from this artist in the near future.
August Alsina Feat. IAMSU! & Problem – Numb
DJ Amen & DJ Carisma decide to kick off the holiday weekend with another #YoungCalifornia world premiere! This time with the ATL’s flaming hot up and coming R&B star August Alsina featuring the West Coast’s go to spitters IAMSU and Problem! Download this one immediately for the free, follow August, and we forgot to mention! It’s Mustard on the beat hoe!
Daughter (@OhDaughter) – Smoke
‘Smoke’ is the b-side to Daughter’s single ‘Youth‘, which is taken from Daughter’s debut album If You Leave.
JMSN & Ab-Soul – You’re Gone (IAMNOBODI Remix)
IAMNOBODI pretty much bodies this record, but what I really want to know is: where is the full project from JSMN and Ab-Soul?
Busta Rhymes Ft Bob Marley – Chris Lighty
Today marks the one year anniversary of the tragic death of Chris Lighty. It’s only right Busta Rhymes pays tribute to his friend by releasing a record featuring Bob Marley. If you have lost someone close, you can relate to this song. May Chris Lighty rest in peace.
@TeddyMusicUK Feat. @JMEBBK – No Way
Radio rip. Teddy Music’s forthcoming Rehearsals will be available to purchase 1st September (preorder here).
Rhythm Roulette – El-P
El-P is the latest on Mass Appeal’s video series where producers pick random records out and try to make a finished product. Warped records, barely-working turntables and broken samplers don’t prevent him from making his usual dystopic-sounding mesh of audio.
@BlackCobain, BOA (@thaboard) & YM – Spillionaire Cookout 2013 (Vlog)
A few weeks ago I went to Angel Park in Alexandria for Black Cobain’s second annual Spillionaire Cookout, presented by the Board Administration and Young Millionaires. Aside from a brief visit from Alexandria PD, the whole thing was definitely a good time with free food, festivities and more. So a big thanks go out to Cobain, the Whole Board and all of YM for sure.
