Drake – Take Care (Feat. Rihanna) / Lord Knows (Feat. Rick Ross) (Prod. Just Blaze)

drake

Fucking mega. Drake via Jamie xx via Gil Scott-Heron. Give Drake a hand for going for something somewhat less predictable at this point in his career. Get this shit on the radio. We need NEW Drake songs. I can only slow headbob that “She Will” shiz so many times.

That OVO that XO. Eyebrows just let loose this new Take Care Weeknd collab on Toronto’s Flow 93.5. Shreds hard.

Slim Thug – Can’t Stop (Feat. Curren$y)

slimthug

Slim Thugga (the dude with Houston on his back. Literally, it’s tattoo’d on his back.) drops a tough new track with “Can’t Stop”. Slim AND Spitta both bring top shelf heat to the track but the real showstopper is the beat, which seriously knocks. Get it.

Drake – The Motto (Feat. Lil’ Wayne) (CDQ)

drake2

Eyebrows Noir put down this bomb (read: bonus track from Take Care) during his Power 106 takeover last night. Track’s got a minimalist 808esque beat and an OK to mediocre Tunechi feature. Mr. Graham does go in though. Give it a spin. Thanks to MJF for the CDQ.

FKi – Toxic (Feat. Yael Naim) (Prod. FKi & Mayhem)

fki

It doesn’t get much heavier. On the track, FKi flips a cover that seems to have an unlimited shelf-life (Yael Naim’s run at “Toxic”) into a syrupy Robotussin jam. Look out for Diplo, Mayhem & Heroes & Villains’ upcoming Transformers in the Hood mixtape.

A new video has dropped for “U.F.C.” from XV’s Zero Heros mixtape. If there ever was an actual U.F.C. (MMC) this dude would so be in.

Kris Mars – Conversation With Myself

Kris Mars flips the classic XX “Intro” and it takes. No denying “Conversation With Myself” is hungry.
