MMG took over NYC strip club Sin City for a different take on the listening party. Gauging by this video shot by DRE Films, not a damn person probably remembers [...]
1. "Aaahh! Real Monsters" - XV feat. ScHoolboy Q & B.o.B. XV released his 17th official mixtape this week, and the Kansas rapper just continues to get better. He enlists the help of Schoolboy Q and Bobby Ray for this track, which is the best from the tape. It's a unique theme and a very unique sound and fool, and the three of them handle it really well. This track, like most of the songs from the tape, was produced by The Awesome Sound, and the sound here sure is awesome. Creativity and imagination lift this song to the top [...]
After a listening session for Self Made Vol.2 in a New York City strip club, Rick Ross and his Maybach Music empire released probably one of the most anticipated tracks off the upcoming compilation album. With verses from Gunplay, Stalley, Wale, Meek Mill, and Rick Ross, the MMG starting line-up delivered satisfactory verses. Not to mention a feature from Hip-Hop [...]
"Look at my persona, I dreamed it, woke up and conquered." I didn't get a chance to post this yesterday because of The Fader event (which was great by the way), but it is too good to ignore. It's not often in this day and age that an 8-minute long track even stands a chance. But thanks to solid verses by everyone involved, it's easy for listeners to hang on for 7 minutes to get Kendrick Lamar's finishing beat. Listen and download it below. MMG: "Power Circle" feat Gunplay, Stalley, Wale, Meek Mill, and [...]
We get frustrated when rappers drop one or two lackluster verses over a two-minute beat made by someone else and call it a day, and it sounds like the gentlemen of Maybach Music Group aren’t cool with that model either, based on their new nine minute single “Power Circle.” It’s an appropriately titled song – the literally epic, driving track features all the members of MMG’s power circle ( Gunplay , Stalley , Wale , Meek Mill , boss man [...]
With countless new songs dropping every week, it can be hard to pick just ten to bring you. This week, for instance, was especially difficult, as there were some jams that were shoo-ins for the final cut but also some tracks whose inclusion required extra deliberation. However, the following batch should hold up well, with summer-happy cuts from Passion Pit and Superchunk as well as sturdy rap bangers from the likes of Maybach Music and Detroit newcomer FowL. As per always, enjoy, and we'll see ya back here next week. -Mike Madden Staff Writer [...]
Maybach Music Group is prepping to drop Self Made Vol. 2 on June 26th, and I'm sure nobody is surprised that they pulled no punches with the roster of features. In "Power Circle" names like Kendrick Lamar , Rick Ross , Wale , and Meek Mill stick out, but the other handful of names on the list do their thing and help make the track worth listening to. Check it out. Download: MMG - "Power Circle" ft. Gunplay, Stalley, Wale, Meek Mill, Rick Ross & [...]
At the rate he's going, considering his consistent level of excellence on the mic, Kendrick Lamar is starting to make each of his guest verses something of a mini event [...]
"Power Circle" features a MMG super-team lineup that finds Gunplay officially in the big leagues and stealing the show, until a typically oblique, enigmatic verse from Kendrick Lamar rounds things out. The posse cut is ... read more
MMG have released the intro track to their upcoming album, Self Made 2 , entitled "Power Circle." The eight minute track features BPM favorite, Top Dawg/Black Hippy's Kendrick Lamar ; he kills it. Stream or download the track below. Self Made 2 is out June 26th.
Whoa. Over some fittingly regal orchestration, the Maybach Music Group and special guest Kendrick Lamar bring us into their "Power Circle" for 8 and a half minutes (subtlety, thy name is MMG). The production isn't groundbreaking (or quite as epic as last year's bombastic, Just Blaze-aided "Self Made" ), but does a fine job setting the table for the emcees on hand, and ambitiously scaled posse cuts have been one of MMG's strongest suits over the last few years. Listen below. Might take a little time to digest this one, but, at first listen, who [...]
Next month, Rick Ross's Maybach Music Group will release their Self Made 2 compilation, and the album track "Power Circle" features all the rappers currently active in the crew - Ross, Gunplay, Meek Mill, Wale, Stalley - as well as on-fire freelance assassin Kendrick Lamar. It is nine minutes long, and it is epic. Listen to it below. Read More...

Rick Ross has just unleashed the highly anticipated collaboration between his MMG crew and TDE's Kendrick Lamar . "Power Circle" serves as the introduction to the forthcoming posse album, Self Made Vol. 2 , which is due out June 26. The song ticks in at over eight minutes, as each member of the squad gets their fair share of this epic instrumental to rip. Yeah, I know MMG isn't exactly he most credibly hip-hop collective, but they continue to crank out absolutely monstrous tracks. "Power Circle" is no exception. Self Made Vol. 2 due out June [...]
The promo for the MMG machine stays in perpetual motion without ever slowing down. Their latest offering is a one-two punch as Ricky Rozay overtakes Weezy's "Mirrors" record and creates [...]

Damn son! Trend-setting music blog Live for the Funk just dropped a brand new Flosstradamus mix and as expected, it goes hard as a muthaf***a. Clocking in at 34 minutes and 7 seconds, this exclusive mix consolidates some of the best hip-hop tracks of 2012 along with fresh cuts from Flosstradamus themselves. The Chicago duo lead things off with "Roll Up", also the opener of their Jubilation 2.0 EP, released last month. Subsequently, "Roll Up" blends into TNGHT 's "R U Ready" which is then followed by a new Flosstradamus track: "Jehovah". The mix really takes off at [...]
