I love any song that can transport me to another time and place, and the latest jam by Theophilus London featuring The Menahan Street Band titled "Rio" does just that. It features a sparkling, smooth 702s soul groove with a funky beat for London to croon upon. It's the perfect tune to bliss out to during a little "me time." Speaking of "me time," Häagen-Dazs has asked me to partner with them again as their music curator for their "moments for me" campaign. This year the Häagen-Dazs brand is asking their fans to share their [...]
We got an extremely short snippet of this a few days ago, and now we have the full track to stream to ourselves until it gets released on iTunes next Tuesday! With the help of Daptone instrumental collective Menahan Street Band , Theophilus gives us a glimpse of what to expect from his sophomore LP and this appropriately titled track was inspired from his trip to Rio a few years ago. Though MSB has been sampled plenty of times in the hip hop world, this may be the first time that they've actually collaborated with [...]
Soooo nice. Longtime bffs Theophilus London and Jesse Boykins III have written songs together before ("Humdrum Town" and "Cold Pillow") and they are reuniting as Paris 96 . Theoph's raps x Jesse's chilled out electronic beats makes for a complementary collaboration in "Afternoon." Their EP as Paris 96 is out in April.

Top Billin duo Just Kiddin' have just finished up their second remix of Theophilus London! This time they have decided to edit his wonderful track "Why Even Try" featuring the vocals Sara Quin from the beloved Tegan and Sara. Remember the somber, romantic feeling of the original? Well, it's gone now! It's been replaced with dance floor vibes, house melodies, and vocal slices that will make you quickly forget that this song used to be about some dude trying to mend his relationship with his girlfriend. Seriously, all you'll be thinking about while listening to this song is where's the nearest dancefloor!
Download Theophilus London’s new mixtape “Rose Island” now
Before Theophilus London hit the mainstream big time in early 2011, I was listening to his mixtapes and appreciating his different sound he brought to hip hop. I'll admit I wasn't the biggest fan of his debut album, but I still respected him for doing something different. Yesterday, he released a new mixtape called Rose Island Vol. 1, which has some nice features like A$AP Rocky, Big Boi , and more. You can stream the tape below and download here or here . Fresh?

![[Download] Theophilus London - 'Rose Land Vol.1' (Mixtape)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4367648_lg.jpg)
Theophilus London has just let loose his brand new mixtape, Rose Land v.1 . His fans will be rather pleased with the release which features the likes of A$AP Rocky, Big Boi, Machine Drum and Sade. You can download the entire thing for free over here or here .
While it's true that we (and others) had previously cooled on the tunes of Theophilus London, he fell back into our good graces with joints like "Big Spender" and "She Said OK". The tunes, which feature A$AP Rocky and Big Boi, respectively, showcased a more lively and engaging London, something we had been wanting to hear for a minute. As such, we're hopeful that his new mixtape, Rose Island Vol. 1 , is a step back in the right direction and a chance for the Brooklyn-bred rapper-singer to prove his worth. You can grab the tape below. Download: [...]
![Theophilus London – Golden [Music]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4303264_lg.jpg)
After dropping a dope track with Outkast own, Big Boi , Theophilus is back with another track featuring production by Twin Shadow . Golden seems to be more of the expected sound that we will get off Theo's upcoming tape, Rose Island II. The song has that old 802s upbeat sound along with a little bit of Theo soul. Check it out below.
Theophilus London has kept things moving since dropping Timez Are Weird These Days , the warmly accepted debut full-length that gave way to some mainstream exposure for the Brooklyn artist. This time around, he is expressing himself with even more shapes and sounds as he teams up with Twin Shadow on production for some disco flare. "Golden" is groovy and spacious, giving way for the listener to get their boogie on. London's Rose Island is due out next week. [ via ] Stream/Download " Golden " here.
![[Listen] Big Boi & Theophilus London feat. TRE LUCE - "She Said OK"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4298352_lg.jpg)
Big Boi recently took to Twitter to announce that his next album will be titled Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors , and late last night he followed that up by dropping a brand new track featuring Theophilus London and TRE LUCE. The song, titled "She Said OK," is confirmed to be included on the forthcoming effort, but it's a good indicator of the direction Big Boi is going in. Check it out and download it below.
Last week Big Boi let us know his forthcoming album would be called Vicious Lies And Dangerous Rumors. Today, he sets the mood for the album with the incredibly raunchy "She Said Ok". With some added words from Theophilus London and Tre Luce, this sinful single is sure to get you grooving in the most inappropriate of ways. Give this track a spin and stay tuned as we get more details on that next Big Boi LP.
I've always admired OutKast's ability to get away with murder when it comes to their lyrics. On even their most degrading honest songs , their cool demeanor and throwback productions allow the lyrics to fly right under the radar. This new Big Boi track is no different. Along with BK rapper Theophilus London and Tre Luce, he gets straight to the point with his requests. This song is expected to appear on both Big Boi's new album and Theo's upcoming mixtape. Check out the bedroom banger below: [...]
Our first look at what Theophilus has in store for his "Rose Island" project. Download : Theophilus London - Morning Kisses
I love putting together our monthly mixtapes. It's fun slowly compiling the tracks over the course of the month; it's fun sequencing the tracks for the mix; and I love that "ah ha" moment when I realize the mix is finally done. All of the pieces for this one fell into play last night, and although I normally like living with my mixes for awhile before sharing them, this one just seemed ready to be set free. You'll find lots of great new music from familiar artists like Aesop Rock, steffaloo, and Ty Segall and White Fence, but this mix [...]
