ASAAD is getting ready to turn a lot of heads very soon, and today he & the homie DJ Sean Mac are releasing "LVMH" as the first single to Mac's Luxury Trap Music 2, which is dropping soon. The song is produced by Sunny Norway & Wasted Youth (Asaad x his Dad), and will definitely be a standout on Sean Mac's follow-up. This is only the beginning of a developing relationship I see between these two. Be on the lookout for an more ASAAD in the near future, as the sky is the limit from here on out. Don't miss [...]

Turns out that he was named after The God Emcee, and that Rocky's mother once approached Rakim at a traffic stop and got him to sign a pair of diapers. A$AP Rocky had never met his namesake until earlier today, when Angie Martinez surprised Rocky with a special guest during their interview.

Aloe Blacc's "I Need a Dollar" came out about two years ago, so I'd say it's past its sampling prime. I'm guessing that this track is an older one that T.I. had laying around. The track has been sampled by a handful of other artists such as Yelawolf and Marky but this track is the most processed version I've heard. Anyway, check out the track below. T.I.: "I Need Dollas"

Tonight he dropped the first leak from project in the form of "Boobie Miles", and also showed the LP's front cover. "The 1st song i wanted 2 release from #4evaNaDay is called Boobie Miles.

Yes...this is the ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) "Blue Sky". Stalley's back again and this time it's on the No I.D. produced "Blue Sky" from Common's The Dreamer/The Believer. I'm wondering how many tracks the Ohio-native is sitting on since he has a mixtape coming out in the near future and has been giving listeners a constant stream of new tracks in the last week or so.

I'm just real excited to see it man, ready to see what the people think [...]
