More new music from Neighborhood Nip as he throws up "Face The World" after just sharing "Smoking With My Stylist" only a few days ago. 9th Wonder's soul-drenched production almost upends the show from Nipsey but he hangs on to make "Face..." a good listen. Hopefully, the new material is all a run to get ears in tune for Victory Lap .

West Coast buzzmaker Locksmith has come together with The DJBooth to bring listeners his latest street album, The Green Box. Named after a locale in the Crescent Park neighborhood of Richmond, California, where the artist grew up, the project features 12 original cuts as well as two bonus tracks. Included are reader-approved leaks "Livin' Loaded," "Transitions," "Be Free," "F**k Love," "Broken," "Bear With Me" and "Stand It." Joining Locksmith on the guest tip throughout The Green Box are Anesha, Big Remo, Fallon, Jarell Perry and Olamide Faison. In addition to boardwork by Locksmith himself, the project features production from 9th [...]
Ever since Lock started promoting The Green Box back in January, the project's been near the top of my radar. Flash forward a few singles and four months later, and we finally have the opportunity to listen to what will easily be the Richmond emcee's greatest piece of work to date. The Green Box contains some of the most personal, haunting records that Locksmith has made. He spills his soul out for the world to hear, and in the process takes his artistry places it hasn't been before. [...]
Queens, New York provides the back drop for Locksmith 's 9th Wonder produced track called "Stand It" featuring lovely vocals from Anesha . The Green Box by Locksmith will be dropping on May the seventh via IAMLOCK.com , check out the latest visual offering above.
Before The Green Box drops, Locksmith shares one final leak, the 9th Wonder-produced gem "Stand It." The cut's another example of Lock's ability to create smart rhymes and do so without being overbearing. On the cut, the Bay MC shares life lessons taught to him that he carries to this day, giving him the backbone not to wilt or waiver. For anyone with an aversion to the "crud," we'd strongly suggest giving "Stand It" a spin and prepping for the release of Green Box by digging in the e-crates [...]

Working with 9th was a truly honorable and humbling experience. I consider this song to be merely a byproduct of the in depth conversations we had during my stay in North Carolina. The Green Box drops May 7th on www.IAMLOCK.com

Murs is raping it up with 9th, heres the last hurrah for the legendary records over the years. So before they go they like to say What Up Tho.
![Murs & 9th Wonder – “What Up Tho?” [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4830378_lg.jpg)
Even though Murs just announced his latest side-project with the White Mandingos , he's not done pushing his final album with 9th Wonder. The Los Angeles representative isn't done having a blast with his music, either. The Final Adventure 's "What Up Tho?" serves as the soundtrack for one of his goofiest clips yet with Murs playing the role of a jerky cafeteria worker. He gets his , though, as the kids don't put up with his blunt-smokin', pie-throwin' ways for too long. Watch below.

I love a good compilation, don't you? Just over a month ago, TeamSupreme unleashed their magnificent Collection 1 and now, a like-minded collective known as The Melt is doing TS one better by releasing the 19-track "Compilation Vol. 13 for free ! Stylistically, these two compilations share a lot in common; both dabble heavily in left-field trap, both feature contributions from Djemba Djemba , FuzZ , Kloud , Snorlax & Col'ta and both are unquestionably indebted to the L.A. beat scene. It shouldn't come as a surprise, then, that The Melt is: " a forward-thinking music collective, blog and club night [...]
