Peep the official video by Josef Svanström and download the remix, for free below:
Absolutely love T&A Records' description for XXXChange's new track 'PWNY' " PWNY sounds like Amon Tobin producing UK grime " and I absolutely love the tune as well. The "PWNY" EP serves as XXXChange's second solo EP, following "Bounce" on T&A, and it drops the 16th together with 'Penguin Party' a collaboration with Ghostdad described as " a bhangra soundtrack accidentally played on 45 over dutch house ". Have a listen to the release below:
The fact that I still get submissions containing remixes and edits of Cassie's monumental 'Me & U' speaks kinda loud how big the impact of her self titled album debut that dropped almost seven years ago was. Remember when that snippet of that collaboration with Nicki Minaj called 'Fuck U Silly' leaked? I still get hits from searches for that one. And now, in a short period of time Cassie has dropped 'Boys' with Nicki Minaj, 'Numb' (that sadly features Rick Ross that since his verse on 'UOENO' is on my black list alongside Chris Brown and other male artists [...]
After getting their 'Easy Easy'-production onto Lil Wayne's "I Am Not a Human Being II"-album (serves as a co-production with Diplo for the Nicki Minaj and Cory Gunz-featured 'Lay It Down') Lunice and Hudson Mohawke now unleash their second single called 'Acrylic'. It starts out real great, think something equal to Krzysztof Komeda's 'Lullaby' from "Rosemanry's Baby" but then it evolves into something, well, something else and I'm not truly convinced. 'Acrylic' is out via Warp Records (buy off iTunes here ). Have a listen below:
After dropping 'God Created The Beat' together with Matrixxman on Grizzly ealier this week (buy here ) Mykki Blanco mow offers up 'Bugged Out', a track off his upcoming release the "Betty Rubble: The Initiation EP" for free download. The track is produced by Supreme Cuts and "Betty Rubble: The Initiation EP" will drop soon, after the release of the 'Feeling Special'-video next week. Listen to and grab 'Bugged Out' below:
Iggy Azalea drops the official video for her Diplo & FKi Fki-produced 'Slo.', taken off her "TrapGold"-mixtape (available for free download here ) via HungerMag. Peep the black and white visuals and grab the tune below, and I've also attached a quite nice remix of Iggy's current single 'Work' signed Epic Empire for free download, the only thing I don't like about it is the repetition of the end, twice, a bit unnecessary and has no meaning really:
Forthcoming release from Maxsta called 'G.R.I.M.E' set to drop on Sony Music soon on a _crazy_ 8bit-oozing production signed Preditah. Seriously, even if I have a really soft spot in my heart for these type of productions, I'm so glad that grime is starting to become it old self again. Have a listen below:
What I've been listening to like a slave for the past two weeks? Cashmere Cat's remix of Miguel's 'Do You...' (taken from Miguel's "Kaleidoscope Dream") of course. Cashmere Cat premiered it on his guest set for the Lucky Me x Rinse FM-show (listen to the whole set here ), and well, Cashmere Cat is a true genius yes and yes this remix is absolutely purr purr purrfect, especially here with the Cashmere Cat-intro nicely blended into it with all the meows and everything. While we impatiently wait for Magnus to unleash the official version, enjoy the [...]
One of my favourites, producer Matt Shadetek dropped his "The Empire Never Ended" album last week on Dutty Artz (cop it off iTunes here ). The solid release featured guests such as Riff Raff, Chan Dizzy, Nikko, DJ /Rupture, Troy Ave, Jahdan Blakkamoore and more and I've featured my fave tracks off the album below. Today Shadetek unleashed his remix of French Montana's 'Choppa Down' ft. Waka Flocka for free download available to grab after the jump:
Cashmere Cat's remix EP of "Mirror Maru" is finally out today via Pelican Fly/Ed Banger Records (cop off iTunes here ). My only disappointment with this release is the absence of a remix of my favourite track off "Mirror Maru"; 'Paws'. But well, guess I can handle since I know what's in store for the near future, a future that brings Cashmere Cat's remix of Miguel's 'Do You...', a remix that makes this kitten purr purr and well, purr. That said, listen to the best track of the remix release, 'Kiss Kiss' by Cashmere Cat's fellow [...]
Azealia Banks unleash the official video for her Machine Drum-produced 'No Problems'. The " This Butch Bitch Got Blue Balls "-diss track sending for Angel Haze. The video features some familiar faces such as Diplo and Steve Aoki and is directed by Rony Alwin. Peep below and also grab the track for free if you haven't already:
After the giant and absolutely ridiculous debate whether Beyoncé is a "true" feminist or not after she unveiled the snippet of 'Bow Down' comes the remix of the other track; 'I Been On'. Bun B, Z-Ro, Scarface, Willie D, Slim Thug and Lil Keke joins Bey on the great production signed Hit-Boy available for free download via Bun B's soundcloud below:
Cashmere Cat will drop the remix EP of his debut release "Mirror Maru" next week the 2nd of April on Pelican Fly and is a collaboration with the French label Ed Banger (pre-order off iTunes here ).

After revealing ' Stack ' the other day here comes yet another new tune from Brooke Candy called 'Don't Touch My Hair Hoe'. The track is produced by Pase Rock and I really hope Brooke will yank out a mixtape soon, the new world other is way due. Don't touch my hair hoe, or my chinchilla coat ... Have a listen below:
Petter was one of the foreground figures in the early days of Swedish rap back in the 1990's, his second album "Bananrepubliken" that dropped in 1999 is the most sold hip hop album in Sweden til this date. But that was then, this decade he's been on a different road, appeared in TV-shows dull as dishwater, dropping cheesy commercials for Bank investments and so on, the teaser video for this video 'King' is more like a commercial as it dropped the name of the restaurant it was filmed in like a gazillion times in under 5 minutes. However, he's also [...]
Brand new tune produced and written by Zebra Katz. 'Sex Sellz' is out now on vinyl only, limited pressing via Signal Life. Have a listen and grab Teeth's Remix VIP for free below:
So XXL dropped their Freshman Class of 2013-cover today, and well, if XXL had any clue about anything Brooke Candy would have been on that cover, seriously. Uh, just the very thought of XXL makes my skin crawl to be honest, ancient media, ancient journalism, just yawn yawn yawn. That said, following the huge ' I Wanna Fuck Right Now '-tune Brooke now drops a brand new one called 'Stack', and well, this one is soooo-oooh good. STACK STACK STACK!!! Listen below: Also, give it up for Terry Richardson who managed to snap [...]
Yes, I've been waiting for the moment to write about this! One of the largest albums that dropped last year actually came from Sweden's Max Peezay and dropped via a collaboration between All Out Dubstep and Peezay's own label Devrim. Old followers of this site know that I haven't exactly been on his cheerleading squad in the past, quite the opposite... But "F.A.S. 3", that aims on " Phase 3, or employment phase, the name of the last part of the job and development guarantee, labour market programs provided by the Swedish Government in July 2007 ", is well, perfect. [...]
Yes, I do have a special liking for producers who "making rhythms in the dark" but Jepordise is a genius, no doubts about it. Actually I featured Jepordise a couple of weeks ago as he produced the latest track from Zebra Katz - ' Y I Do ' but now he offers up his own EP "666". Welcome to future Memphis featuring cuts from old rap tapes. You'll love it, just listen below:
The fact that the official video for this collaboration between Friction and Skream featured below only has around 3k views in over 14 days is baffling to me, 'Kingpin' is so good one could think it was the golden years of grime all over again. Not only does Riko Dan London city war lord do what he does best no, Scrufizzer pays homage to Crazy Titch with reusing Titch's old, and now almost legendary, " ... oldschool, rudeboy ruffneck soldier. Now I'm gettin older, heart is gettin colder "-bars from the 'Eyes on You' freestyle from "Lord of the Decks" [...]
