![[new]: Kanye West – New Slaves](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4957498_lg.jpg)
So Kanye West premiered a new song tonight in a way that only Kanye West could. A large video of him performing the song was projected on 66 buildings across the world. Yes, you read that correctly. Kanye definitely lives in his own dimension. The song is a new one called "New Slaves" and it is supposed to appear on his new album, which is likely to come out in June. The first 3/4 of the song is pretty much Kanye, but the last part sees him break out a singing falsetto, which is not doing [...]
After seeing Jay-Z release his new track "Open Letter" , Kanye & Pusha T wanted to keep the good stuff coming , and released a new Pusha-T track that Kanye produced. It's called "Numbers On The Boards" and it features a sample of Jay's "A Million and One Questions/Rhyme No More." Take a listen below.
Yasiin Bey , formally known as Mos Def has been in the news lately for numerous music projects, one which includes a collaborative effort with producer Mannie Fresh . Yet, while there was good news about that, a song leaked out called "The Light Is Not Afraid of The Dark" with production from Kanye West . That should get your eyes to light up a bit because the duo are a solid match and Bey brings that lyricism. While it was only a live version that appeared before, we now have a CD quality cut of [...]
"Overgrown is by no means a perfect album but it is an important milestone in the development of James Blake..." James Blake | Overgrown The years have been kind to James Blake. Since the release of his self-titled debut album in 2011, he has become somewhat of a household name. However, the dizzying heights of success and rubbing shoulders with industry greats has not gone to his head. Rather, if anything, Overgrown is a more grounded effort than its predecessor - as grounded as a dub step/soul crossover can [...]
So John Legend is coming out with a new LP Love in the Future. The album is entirely produced by Kanye West which is definitely a great look IMO. Today's single "The Beginning," showcases the talent Ye has to mesh his sound into almost any genre, as well as the undeniable vocal choices by Legend. Listen below. John Legend or Justin Timberlake?
I was pumped last night when I came across a Kanye West and Consequence remix track of "Hold On." This was previously unreleased and now it is remastered, ready for the masses to bump all day. This appeared on DJ J. Period ‘s newly released project G.O.O.D Music: Remixed & Unreleased , which is a nice surprise for any Yeezy or G.O.O.D. Music fan. The pair of course kill the beat and even though it's only 2 minutes long, it's still super enjoyable. Fresh? [...]
When Kendrick Lamar dropped his newest album last year, you would've been hard-pressed to find a positive review that didn't use the word "classic" to describe it. I won't go so far as to say it's a classic, but it's a stunning album for sure, and ten times better than Kanye 's last LP My Dark Beautiful Twisted Fantasy that everyone lost their shit over. When Kendrick dropped good kid, m.A.A.d city I instantly [...]
Only 6 days until The Game releases his newest LP, Jesus Piece and today he is here with the title track for the LP, tactically featuring Kanye West & Common. The song is dope, but I don't think I can still take The Game as serious as I once did, if he keeps putting out these solo compilation LP's.
"The lingering is that for Kanye, when it comes to collaboration, it appears that less is definitely more..." Kanye West & Various Artists | Cruel Summer Kanye West is without doubt one of the most famous hip-hop artists of modern day history, but even creating Cruel Summer must have taken some organisation on his part. You see, this isn't just Kanye's album, this is an album created by a Kanye-formed hip hop supergroup entitled G.O.O.D. If anyone thought Kanye had a slight God complex creating such a group (see the spelling link [...]
Kanye West acts as the ringleader for Cruel Summer , rapping in the album opener “To The World,” sticking around until the album feels too disjointed, and becoming less involved than one might imagine, considering he’s the keystone to this particular rap clique. Cruel Summer also seems centered around promoting ass-obsessed young-gun Big Sean , the newly rebranded 2 Chainz , and the gruff OG Pusha T since [...]
![Listen: Kanye West – “Clique (feat. Big Sean & Jay-Z) [prod. Hit-Boy]“](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4491795_lg.jpg)
We've had a bit of a cruel summer waiting for the G.O.O.D. Music crew to finish up their ultra-hyped collaboration. Today, we get a brand new glimpse of the album with the second single to Cruel Summer , due out, ironically, this fall (September 16th to be exact). Kanye West teams up with Big Sean and Jay-Z to jump on some banging Hit Boy production, giving us yet another posse cut from the talented crew. If you enjoyed [...]
We've heard a few things from Oberhofer this year so far, including a tight cover of Kanye West 's "Runaway" , but judging by their new video for "Cruisin FDR" they must've been making a few bucks because this is exactly what happens to the rich. They make some dough, buy a sweet ride, take their buddies driving in it, get attacked by zombies, throw up rainbow green-screen puke, get sucked into a black hole and end up as a [...]
Hit-Boy 's second song as a rapper is the long-awaited, often-teased "Old School Caddy" collaboration with G.O.O.D. Music fam Kid Cudi . This time, the producer-turned-rapper got behind the tables himself to churn out his own production, which fits perfectly with Kid Cudi's energetic Man On The Moon / A Kid Named Cudi era flow. Cudi is actually only on the song for about 36 seconds (one short verse after Hit-Boy spits his two), but his presence is huge, especially since Hit-Boy still sounds like he's trying to find his voice and [...]
" Elimination Chamber " is a subtle reminder why Odd Future own Hip-Hip. No offense to Domo Genesis but what he accomplishes in a big way on this song is lay out a format for Earl Sweatshirt to put on display those intangibles that lead me to believe he might just be the greatest rapper making music today; he's young, hungry,unapologetically honest, and more talented than Kanye and Jay-Z [...]
It's been far too long since I checked in with Contrakids , but happily they've not been idle in the meantime. Far from it, in fact: there are five new tracks up on their Soundcloud since the last one we featured, "Happy Ever" . The latest, "I'm Already Falling" , finds them on fine form; showcasing their trademark minimal beats and awesome-sauce hooks. Speaking of which, there have been a lot of minimal, dance-inspired acts making it big in the mainstream. I'm thinking of the likes of recent [...]
Back in April Kanye West released 'Mercy', a new song that featured guest spots from My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy alums Big Sean and Pusha T. And now comes another newie, this time courtesy of just West and Pusha T. Set to feature on the forthcoming G.O.O.D Music collaboration album, 'New God Flow' sounds very promising from the get go, with West and T trading verses on top of a big beat and grainy piano. Just days ago, West performed the song at the BET awards. Listen to 'New God Flow' below.
G.O.O.D. Music will release their compilation album Cruel Summer on August 7th and the star-studded label is making sure that no one forgets. After premiering their new song on the BET Awards Show last night, the Louis Vuitton don Kanye West and his right-hand-man Pusha T have dropped the official studio version of "New God Flow", available for streaming now via In Flex We Trust . "New God Flow" is yet another banger from the talented group of rappers, following in the footsteps of recent tracks "Mercy", "Burn", "Exodus [...]
Romain Gavras knows how to direct amazing videos, most-notably his controversial short for M.I.A. 's track "Born Free" with his ginger genocide. Clearly he either has a thing for the police, or he loves showing how awesome they can be at brutally controlling a crowd of people. No gingers in this video, but there are horses, lots of fire, an elephant (not sure if it's real or not), dudes on fire, cars on fire, fire on fire, and frickin' lazers (no sharks), but unfortunately Paris Hilton was [...]
![[Listen] Oberhofer: "Runaway" (Kanye West Cover)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4254716_lg.jpg)
Creo que ya muchos de ustedes por ahi afuera estan mas que familiarizados con el trabajo de Oberhofer ya que aunque no les he habladomas a detalle sobre su debut "Time Capsule II", me parece que ha sido uno de los proyectos que poco a poco se ha ido destacando por distintos lugares desde la aparicion de este material y para serles sincero: desde que escuche " HEART " como que les fui perdiendo un poco el interes pese a que ese corte no me parecio nada mal e incluso lo estuve disfrutando durante un par de dias [...]
