The Weeknd: Trust Issues (Remix)

















Just by chance I heard Drake's "Trust Issues" joint the other day in the car. Is it just me or does he just keep doing the same song over and over? Not a fan of R&B Drake at all. But thanks to Moe Green I now know who The Weeknd is and I thought I'd switch it up a little bit. Check it.

Dasanto "Flying Boat"
























The dude TreaZon told me to check this one out. That's dope. Normally artists these days only care about pushing their own stuff. Once I pushed play and started listening I'll be honest, after hearing just the intro I was thinking I knew exactly how the rest of the album was gonna play out. And to think I just made a post-it note to myself last night telling myself to not be so judgmental. By the second track "From Me To You" I was nodding my head to every note. Track number three hits with an Incubus sample! Dope! And I'm not even that into Incubus. Track four had me noddin' for sure. Matter of fact pretty much every track did! I can't wait to listen to this more so I can get a better view on this art! Just download and enjoy. For real.

Blu: Up All Night


Just thought I'd throw something up that I've been currently listening to on repeat for days on end now. The average listener doesn't even understand how sick Blu's rhyming pattern actually is. "So leave your pencils and your pistols out the door please, or be smashed by the Cadillac-a-jack, shit I smashed last night, she told you she on the rag? Nah, she was on her back, tried to hit it from the back, but when I tried to get an inch in, she told me just relax, so homie just relax, I'm on some O.G. Mister Mack, and hoes know me but only from the oldie pimpin' mags, on the cover with this Mag, like this motherfuckers bad." Dope!

Dom Kennedy: Grind'n (Prod. Cardo)


All I gotta say is WEST$IDE II 6.28.11!!

Raven Sorvino (of Language Artz): Je Ne Sais Quoi
























Have I really not posted this yet? I swear I've tried to post this a handful of times now but I always get pulled away to do something else somehow. Anyways... have you ever seen something in a female that attracts you to her but you don't know exactly what it is? That's je ne sais quoi. This is the dopeness.
