Milk In My Sippy Cup....Is A Jam

This is legit a jam. I think that is all that needs to be said.......

"Payphone Remix" (Ft. Steve Mast) - IanJ

Music:

I can't keep this song off repeat!

Looks like IanJ is back in the studio creating some awesome music again. I was expecting this remix of Maroon 5's track "Payphone" to be more of a party track like IanJ's last mixtape "Happy Birthday". But this is definitely a more serious take on the pop hit. With added vocal by Steve Mast (from Plain White T's), I feel that this is IanJ's best work yet. I am excited to hear more over the coming summer.

Follow IanJ on Facebook to show this up-and-coming artist some much deserved support.

"Boyfriend" (Mike Stud Remix) - Justin Bieber (Video)

Music:

Here we have Mike Stud's takes on Bieber's newest single "Boyfriend", and I did not think I would say this but I love this remix.

I made two mistakes when making my assumption above and they are (1) any remix would be better than Justin Beiber trying to rap and (2) how could I ever question Mike Stud's talent and ability with creating a dope track. For those of you that have seen our other posts on Mike Stud you know how great this guy really is. Mike Stud is destine for great success...I mean... he has already taken most of the college aged demograph by storm. Show him some support and "Like" his Facebook page....and then "Like" our Page!

Chill Bump - "Leakin"

Music:Life:


Finally some rap music from this generation is starting to raise its voice to the standing order of the world and music, and with the talent and skill to reach the masses. Hailing out of France, Chill Bump consists of  MC Miscellaneous and Bankal on the beats. Their beats are very interesting but very good, crisp, and clean; while the lyrics are heavy with substance and hit the head hard. The versatility is pretty damn impressive, they are different because they have substance while not having to give up any style.

In a world of Mac Millers, where everybody thinks if they where a snapback, gets tatted, and can rhyme some words together, they can rap. Hip-hop isn't just about style, but about substance. It is what is was built upon, and wasn't about making more money than everyone else by being exploited by a label; look at the godfathers: Public Enemy, KRS One,  Run-DMC, Kool Moe Dee, etc. Our Society is made up of a bunch of bullshit right now, and music, which should be helping shift the balance and progress the world, is only contributing to the brainwashing that wealth and material possessions are more important than people. I know and trust my generation to break us out of this fucked up world we are inheriting, and it is good to see some music being made by us finally submerging.

Give your mind a break from monotony and give them a listen.

Tupac Preforms at Coachella in the Form of A Hologram

Music: Tech: Life:

So I am sure by now all of you have seen the incredible performance by Tupac (well his hologram) this past weekend at Coachella. But wait...hasn't Tupac been dead for 16 years now??? For those of you that have not seen the video... head to the bottom of this post and watch the video before we get into this discussion.

Ok, I am expecting that all of our first reactions to this performance is..."WOW this is amazing"...but after thinking about it for a while, I started to think just the opposite. Yes the technology is crazy and maybe one day we will be going to concerts where the actual performer could be on the other side of the country performing multiple concerts that the same moment though this technology. (But that is not my point)

But I ask you to view this video and performance through an ethical standpoint. Tupac obviously has been dead for 15+ years now and he had absolutely no say whether or not Coachella had the privilege to bring him back from the dead. How is it ethically right to make a profit off of a dead man?

Also the crowd acted as if Tupac did reselect from the dead, but this was by no means Tupac at all. It is impossible that there was ever a recording of Tupac saying "What the fuck is up Coachella"... simply because the first Coachella performance happened 3 years after his death.

Now we come to the main issue that makes me angry that this performance ever happened. Since the music industry thought this was alright to bring Tupac "back from the dead" and create lines that he never said once in his life...we can begin to see more performances from dead performers. And the music industry loves this idea because they will make a killing off of these dead performers. These artists already have brand recognition so it would not be hard at all to fill major concert venues. And the total cost for these concerts will be minimal compared to what it costs for an actual live performance.

These music industry executives make me furious with this approach to make more money...

So I ask you all.....is bringing these artist back in the form of a hologram really what people want to see? Even if you want to see these performances...do you see them to be ethically right?

"Take Shape" - The Dean's List (Official Music Video)

Music:

With the release of their debut album Generation X, The Dean's List is starting to make some serious noise in the mainstream scene. Sonny Shotz (The rapper in this talented group) has great sound and flow that you cannot hate their music. (but of course haters gonna hate). One thing that you should always expect from The Dean's List is that you will always get solid jams no matter what the situation.

Today; The Dean's List just released a new video off Generation X, with their track called "Take Shape". With this video you can see Sonny and the rest of the group in their fresh 70's hair-dues partying it up with their friends. Hope you all had the privilege this past weekend to do the same. As most of you may have noticed, we took a couple days off for vacation.... I mean how could you not with this beautiful weather. But we are back and at it with providing you with more procrastination material.... music, videos, pictures, and stories. Cheers.

"Fuck Me Baby" (Carly Rae Jepsen Call Me Maybe Remix) - Huey Mack

Music: New Jay Electronica !!

Music:



I'll never forget the day I heard Jay Electronica for the first time. Riding around on a beautiful summer day in new york city listening to Hot 97, when all of a sudden I hear the blaring horns and DJ Enuff shout out that he had a radio premiere from the infamous Jay Electronica. Over the next 3 minutes I listened to "Exhibit A" and was in a state of awe, it was a sublime feeling to hear this man rap for the first time, and ever since I have had everything this man has released of rotation. His album has built up a crazy amount of anticipation over the past few years, and it has become more of a myth than reality. Apparently the album has been done for quite some time now and Jay-Z and the Roc nation have it in their possession, and it is Jay-Z's favorite album of the year, but it lacks any singles, so it has been shelved.

There is hope now though, with the release of "Dear Moleskin," and while it only has one verse, it is still better then 95% of the rap being put out right now. If this is your introduction
Jay Elec I dont just recommend, but highly encourage you to search for and listen to his music.

New Timeflies Tuesday (April 10th) "All Night"

Music:

Another week...another incredible Timeflies Tuesday. This week Timeflies goes back to their party themed freestyles where Cal and his incredible flow matches Rez's masterpiece beat. I say this time and time again but I always look forward toward writing posts on these guys each week because they are the truth. Cal is just so talented with coming up with lyrics on the spot and Rez makes the beats every college kid is searching for. So share these guys with all your friends because they seriously deserve the attention.

If you missed last weeks post where they tackle the track "Jetplane"....no worries we covered it. So check it out HERE, and be sure to come back each week for more Timeflies Tuesdays.

Music: "One More Time" by YONAS

Music:

YONAS just released his newest track "One More Time" which samples Daft Punk's track "One More Time". It seems as if every artist in the underground game has sampled at least one of Daft Punk's tracks in the past, but YONAS knows how to resurrect a track back from the dead, and this version is straight fire. With his catchy chorus and flowing verses, this track earns the right to be played at your next party.

Check out other YONAS tracks on his Soundcloud. (Strongly suggest checking out his "Pumped Up Kicks" track). ENJOY!

"HYFR" (Featuring Lil Wayne) - Drake (Official Video)

Music:

Typically I do not post videos that do not have a download link....but Drake's video for HYFR featuring Lil Wayne is an exception for many reasons. (1) This is a track that will never get old. Play it 2 years from now and you will still think this is a jam. (2) What a great video, with some humor behind it. (3) What the hell is Lil Wayne wearing on his head????

Just hit play and enjoy!

"This Plane" (Viceroy Jet Life remix) - Wiz Khalifa

Music:

I realized I just posted a Viceroy remix but I feel that this track also needs to be shared with the masses. This time Viceroy takes up Wiz Khalifa's track "This Plane. Viceroy stays true to the original track by keeping the vocals the same but his remix with the instrumentals is just amazing. I like the original track, but I think I am in love with this remix. Once again, leave it to Viceroy for all your summertime feel tracks. Enjoy.

New Timeflies Tuesday "Jetplane"

Music:

Another week, another Timeflies Tuesday. Last night Timeflies posted their newest installment of Timeflies Tuesday called "Jetplane". Rez knows how to make a killer beat and Cal hits us up with an incredible freestyle. These guys have me wanting more each week ...so for those of you new to Timeflies check out last weeks post. Enjoy!

"Now Let's Go In" (Featuring Freddy High) - XV

Music:

XV, who is one of the most deserving rappers I know, just released a new track called "Now Let's Go In" which features Freddy High. This is exactly what you would expect from an artist like XV. He goes in to every track with everything he has.

To let you all into XV's world, here is a blurb from his Facebook description:

"Obsessed with comic books, action figures, web surfing, and roleplaying video games, "XV" (born Donavan Johnson) would classify as a "nerd". But his love for fashion, colorful sneakers, and porn disqualify him of being such a stereotype. So, the 24-year old lyricist finds himself playing the same role he played in middle school and high school, in the music industry. The nobody begging to become a somebody."

So check out this track and grab the free download. Enjoy!

"Eat Your Vegetables" - Childish Gambino

Music:

Childish Gambino (aka Donald Glover) is at it again...and I could not be more excited for whats to come. With his forth mixtape in the works, we will begin to hear more music from the talented rapper/actor.

Childish Gambino has released the track "Eat Your Vegetables" and I must say that I was not a fan the first time I listened to this track. Fast forward to a few plays later and I cannot take this track off replay. So tell us what you think about Gambino's newest track and leave a comment. Don't forget to grab the free download as well.

Mike Stud - "Is It Worth It" (Download and Visuals)

Music:

What a great track. Mike Stud recently released "Is It Worth It", which talks about his fast track to the top of the college rap scene. The visuals that accompany this song are great and gives you a sneak peak of his new found world. I have been following Mike now for close to two years and seeing his improvement I can easily say that he is one of the most talented up and coming rappers.

Check out his Soundcloud to hear all of his amazing tracks. You will not be disappointed. Also be sure to grab the free download bellow. Enjoy!

"Gambler" by QuEST

Music: Hip-Hop / Rap

Lyrical genius.... QuEST who recently released "Gambler" is preparing for his upcoming project Fear Not Failure which I cannot wait for. (You will definitely see more of this project once it is released) But for now we have the track "Gambler" which I feel is intense (in a good way of course). The track has a little dubstep that ties in perfectly, but I would not consider this genre as a dubstep but more of a Hip/Hop Rap background.

Since this is our first post on QuEST, here is a brief bio from the up and coming rapper who hails from Miami:

"John Q speak from the Heart Pardon My honesty. Just trying to get my message across to better the world. N.E.A.T.O (Never Ever Allow The Obscene) is the mindset. Peace and Love."

So grab this track now for free, and be sure to check back with his Fear Not Failure project. Enjoy!
