Lupe Fiasco - What U Want (NEW) (Lasers) [CDQ]



One of my favorite songs in the past few months.....the title is "What U Want" and it is set to be on Lupes highly anticipated new album "lasers"...i think this song will broaden his audience, with that pop appeal that everyone loves rite now. Enjoy!

Mike Preuss - Angel Dust



This is the older brother of a dude i went to high school with....the song is super chill, kind of reminds me of chromeo.......i just really love the creativity of the video. Yup this is where i grew up, wesco donuts and all:)

Curren$y ft. Chip Tha Ripper & Big Sean - Fat Raps



I really like this old school feel of this song, not much of a curren$y fan but i like a few songs.....like this one! I think Chip The Ripper does the first verse and thats my favorite.

Macklemore - The Magic



My favorite song off of his actual album, lyrical hip hop about stuff that i grew up around and enjoy.

You can purchase the album on his myspace page or song on i tunes.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis - Otherside (Live at KEXP)




Seattle Hip Hop.... Getting creative at a local radio show. The Otherside is a deep song that goes into the drug issues going on around the Puget Sound, and Macklemores personal struggle with promethazine (cough syrup) use, and oxy-contin. The sample from the Chilli Peppers and live violin give this song the unique creative edge that i enjoy in good new music... Bottom line i am just happy he got away from that shit and back into the hip hop game...206!

I waited a minute for this mixtape... I read somewhere that the title is an ode to Snoop Doggs "Gin & Juice" which is perfect because i def think of him as a new school Snoop. A friend of mine said that it is way too slow and not the Wiz that he typically listens to and loves , i do think it is different but in a good way,and it's def the Khalifa that i like and it's basically a whole doobie smokin tape. Bottom line...kush and orange juice are the perfect ingredients for wake n bake.

With Cudi I just love the creativity he puts into it and honestly believe that he is changing the game with every song, and i think he is changing it in a good way.

I just heard this for the first time the other day, which makes me kind of bad cuz i didn't know about him when i was in the NW...Gazmo is doing exactly what i like in hip hop rite now flow wise, and most of these songs are done on well known tracks(Ice Cream, Day N Nite)...he even hops on some old-school outkast tracks. Bottom line i think he would hold his own with the best in the game rite now and it is a nice change for what usually comes out of Seattle.

Favorites:
3. This Cold...Aquemeni, one of my favorite songs since like 6th grade.
4. Mistress Maryjane...An Ode To The Ganj:)
