Missy Elliott to release new solo album in JUNE!

Missy Elliott to release new solo album in JUNE! I was on a huge Missy Elliott binge for about 2 weeks in January and I was wondering when/if Missy will be releasing a new album. To my surprise, this past week Timbaland tells MTV News that he and Missy Elliott are both working on solo records and are looking to release new music soon. Missy Elliott hadn't released any new material since her 2005 record, The Cookbook . I am so excited to hear that Missy 'Misdemeanor' Elliott is back and I can't wait to hear the new record!

Earl Sweatshirt- Home

Earl Sweatshirt- Home Earl Sweatshirt easily had the most anticipated release from a member of the Odd Future clique. He has finally returned home from Samoa and dropped a new single upon receiving 50,000 Twitter followers. The track is poignantly titled Home and can be streamed here from the rappers website. You can also follow him on Twitter @ earlxsweat . I'm definitely waiting to see what he can really do this year. Share and Enjoy:

Chairlift- I belong In Your Arms

This is not your typical love song so don't let the title turn you off. The catchy tune and instrumentals are nostalgic but unlike anything I have heard in a long time. I can't wait for these guys to come through Detroit. Chairlift- I Belong In Your Arms Share and Enjoy:

Video: Neon Indian – Fallout

Music Videos: Neon Indian - "Fallout" Music Video
Check out Neon Indian's music video for his latest single, "Fallout". The video is said to be an homage to 802s cartoons and sexy commercials. I suppose the cartoon babe in the video is a babe up until the last 3 seconds fo the video. The band is currently preparing for a North American tour this Spring - they will also be performing at this year's Coachella festival.

The Internet- She Knows

The Internet- She Knows Syd tha Kyd interests me not only for being the lone female in a hard tongued rap collective but also because her music is so distinctively her. She is now under the moniker "The Internet" with fellow Odd Future producer Matt Martians where they warp their take on hip hop and R&B. Purple Naked Ladies is out now on OF Records.

M.I.A- Bad Girls

I wrote last week that M.I.A was set to release a new track, well here it is. It is nothing to write home about but its not bad either. According to Hipsterrunoff M.I.A has been scheduled to perform this Sunday for the super bowl. #gopatriots M.I.A- Bad Girls Share and Enjoy:

Trust- F.T.F I had the chance to listen to the new album by Toronto based duo Trust which is noted as being "tales of lust, wax, and erotomania" by their label Arts and Crafts. Below is a cut from that album TRST which will be released on February 28. Trust- F.T.F Share and Enjoy:

Lower Dens- Brain

Lower Dens- Brain If the stress of school doesn't kill me, the drives from Toronto to Windsor in the snow will. On the trip back today this song played on the radio and got stuck in my head. Lower Dens upcoming album is set to release May 1st just in time for the short summer break I get. Lower Dens- Brains Share and Enjoy:

WZRD- Teleport 2 Me, Jamie

WZRD- Teleport 2 Me, Jamie I was skeptical upon hearing that Kid Cudi was going to release an alternative rock album even though all his music has always been in his own category. Teleport 2 Me, Jamie is the first from his band WZRD which also consists of producer Dot da Genius. It'll take some digesting but I'm definitely interested in this direction he's decided to take. WZRD will be out February 28. WZRD- Teleport 2 Me, Jamie Share and Enjoy:

A$AP Rocky at The Opera House

A$AP Rocky at The Opera House Since the 2011 release of Peso , I've been watching and liking everything Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky has been doing. He's the perfect mix of new and old school to me due in part to his east coast/southern coast style. Being that this was my first show of 2012, I was antsy and even decided to show up a bit early, just in case he maybe decided to start on time (lol.) It wasn't until about 9:30 that two guys (twins or not, who knows) hit the stage with a few muddled songs. I wanted to like [...]

Miike Snow feat. Lykke Li – Black Tin Box

Miike Snow feat. Lykke Li – Black Tin Box I think it's safe to say that all the writers here at AWmusic are huge fans of Miike Snow and of Lykke Li. These musically talented Swedes are pretty amazing on their own. We didn't expect anything less than perfection from this match made in heaven musical collaboration. "Black Tin Box" is the third track to be released from Miike Snow's forthcoming LP, Happy For You . The album is set for a March 27th release date. web: http://www.miikesnow.com facebook: [...]

Blondes- Wine

Blondes- Wine Wine is the latest from Brooklyn natives Blondes who will release their self titled album on February 7th with RVNG. It's just one of those songs that make you feel good, or a "spritzer" as The Fader as The Fader called it. I liked their name too. Share and Enjoy:

Gonjasufi- Blaksuit

Gonjasufi- Blaksuit I've been waiting for awhile to hear some sort of reggae/hip-hop cross composition with Gonjasufi being the first I've heard so far this year to do so. Blaksuit was my favorite off his album, but I gotta say it's a great listen as a whole. It's all fuzzed and droned out still keeping with the reggae-like tone. You can stream the album here . MU.ZZ.LE is out now. Gonjasufi- Blaksuit Share and Enjoy:

Oberhofer – Heart

Oberhofer – Heart This track has been floating around the interweb for a little over a week now and I figured I should share it some more because I like it. Oberhofer's debut full-length album, Time Capsules II , is set to be released on March 27 via Glassnote Records . The band will be performing alongside The Temper Trap and Pond on March 25th at Toronto's Phoenix Concert Hall. For a list of Oberhofer's tour dates, check out their Facebook page.

Slava- I've Got Feelings Too

Slava- I've Got Feelings Too Brooklyn producer Slava is set to release his EP next month, but for now he's left us with one peak into his next effort. All I can say is New York is doing it right now. Soft Control will be out February 7th on Mexican Summer and Software. Below: I've Got Feelings Too. Share and Enjoy:

Schoolboy Q featuring A$AP Rocky- Hands on the Wheel

Schoolboy Q featuring A$AP Rocky- Hands on the Wheel Schoolboy Q is on the brink on greatness. Cue Hands on the Wheel , a Lissie inspired track about "weed and brews" accompanied by a cool dark video, our ninja A$AP and it's clear to see Q don't mess. This one was a definite standout from the album so it was good to see it come to life. Habits and Contradictions is out now. Schoolboy Q featuring A$AP Rocky- Hands on the Wheel [...]

M.I.A to release new track

M.I.A to release new track Well, the title pretty much says it all. Could it be her chance at redemption, like that island they have on survivor, or is this going to be the final nail in the coffin. Maybe becoming a billionaire got to her head. The new track and video for Bad Girl is set to release on January 30th, I guess we will have to wait and see until then. Share and Enjoy:

Santigold- Big Mouth

Santigold- Big Mouth Santigold is back, and not with that mess she did with Karen O. The first time I heard this track I thought it was a Major Lazer track featuring Santigold, seeing as how Switch produced this track I guess my initial assumption wasn't really far off.
