There comes a time in everyone's life when they need something to give them a good kick in the butt and re-energize their sleeping passion. This Chiddy Bang new leak off their upcoming mixtape "Air Swell" has done just that for me and although it has been awhile since I've posted something, I believe that this could be just the thing to get me going again. Xaphoon and Chiddy you did it again!!
Here is the absolutely latest from the duo Chiddy Bang. Both guys more than play their part on this track, the remix of Ellie Goulding blows minds and Chiddy's flows will make your jaw drop. Can not wait for the mini mixtape followed by the Full-Length Album:

So I got into an argument today with some of my friends about what was the best rap album put together from top to bottom of all times. The three arguments that rose up were for Jay Z's Blueprint (The first one), Nas's Illmatic, and finally Lil Wayne's Tha Carter III. I would have to say I love all of them in a different way and for me it is hard to compare any of these artists because I think each of them is the best at what they do. I wanted to hear what your thoughts were on this argument. Hit up a comment and leave what you think is the best rap album ever made from top to bottom.
Definitely just a great song as mentioned earlier...Here's the official video.

Here are a couple tracks I came across over at 2dopeboyz. J.Cole is really starting to come into his own, and Charles Hamilton is the rapper (and mixtape king) I am most surprised hasn't blown up from last year's rookie class. Both rappers are very lyrically driven and always have dope samples:
Virtually unknown prior to his hit "No Hoe," D-Lo has become so popular that Snoop Dogg hopped on the track for a remix. I go dumb to the original, but I go dumber to this:
You may recognize "She" from the films Elf or Yes Man. If you saw Yes Man you probably got a sense of her musical talent, specifically her amazing voice. She isn't only an acress but she is a part of an Indie Folk band named "She & Him." Here is a new song that is very indicative of their style. Thus far the duo has only come out with one album, entitled "Volume One." This is the first single I have come across from their 2nd project:
I'm a big fan of Grizzly Bear, covers, and Hot Chip so naturally would put this up on my blog. Saw it over at PMA.
Here is the latest from those that bring you "Party music for all those looking to get down on the dance floor." In my opinion this is one of my least favorite White Panda mixes. If you're going to put Beastie Boys on a track, you need to go all out to actually improve it. The chorus isn't even used in this remix, and it really just has a weak feel. Definitely doesn't hit as hard as most of their stuff. A rare miss.

These two songs are catchy as fuck. I'm really starting to get into this artist even though I was very skeptical at first. He has a very unique voice and solid beats. He produces the kind of music that can literally be played in any situation. I'm looking forward to his first album to drop after his two extremely successful mixtapes.
Here's the latest from the up-and-coming Curren$y. Following their mixtape together, Wiz Khalifa and Curren$y have really moved into the role of who to look out for. I got this track from a tweet by @RealWizKhalifa. It samples my personal favorite track of Gucci Mane's called Lemonade:
