Jay Electronica - Exhibit C Remix EP (Produced by Lateef Dameer) by Hypetrak

Ive been listening to and enjoying Jay Electronica for a while now thanks to Chris who pointed me in his direction a few months ago. I was intrigued when i saw this as Lateef Dameer always has a unique spin on the tracks he remixes and this is no different.
Definitely recommend giving this a listen, especially if you are a fan of Jay's

Seriously unbelievable!! Craze is bloody amazing. Ive been lucky enough to see this guy a couple of times and let me tell you, his live sets are more of this but for an extended period of time. his beat juggling is second to none and the variety of tunes he pulls out always amazes me. Really a pioneer of modern DJ-ing.
This will hopefully help to provide some inspiration to Duncs who is following in Craze's footsteps by becoming a pioneer of his field, Producing dope beats. Keep up the good work Duncy dizzle!

Loving this Wayne tune!

M.I.A - Born Free

M.I.A, Born Free from ROMAIN-GAVRAS on Vimeo.

Running a little behind the times on this. M.I.A's new video, directed by Romain Gavras, has revently been banned from YouTube due to the gratuitous violence. Im sure that this will only serve to increase the popularity of the video and boost the viewings. See what you think

R.I.P Guru

Below is a tribute to the late Guru. Im a huge fan of his work as are many. I was fortunate enough to see the great man perform in an intimate gig in Southamptons Orange rooms with DJ Premier.
He will be sorely missed!

Kingston - Trainer Shopping and Boozing

So i went to Kingston on Friday to see Adam and he took me to a shop called Natterjacks. What an amazing collection of trainers!! and there were three shops full, so as you can imagine i was in my element. Adam eventually managed to drag me away but not before i managed to purchase these bad boys. If youre ever in Kingston, check out Natterjacks, theyre right by the Bentall Centre so you shouldnt miss them.

This ones for Ashleigh & Dimp-a-Limp

Nike Air Max 1 iD Shoe

Sunday Girl - Four Floors (Diplo Remix) by Hypetrak

Diplo brings forth his rendition of “Four Floors” – the appetizer single from UK’s newest pop sensation Sunday Girl. The inspiring producer adds some welcomed electro elements to this catchy tune. Judging by the artist’s marketing-potential it can be expected that folks will compare the artist to Ellie Goulding who has been responsible for numerous threats on the UK-charts. Check it out.

Raekwon - Disposable Gunz by Hypetrak

Meth, Ghost & Rae – Dangerous by Hypetrak

Another single emerges from the Wu camp and adds more definitive reason why this upcoming album may truly be a classic. Dangerous is another addition to the ongoing drops as of late, and will certainly be on their upcoming Wu-Massacre project due out March 30th. Those looking to support can do so by purchasing the single on itunes. Check it out below.

Blu-Untitled(LovedU)2 x GodArt from http://vimeo.com/user777210 on Vimeo.

Blu keeps his buzzing as he drops another high quality video for his new single “Untitled(LovedU)2 x GodArt”. Similar to the recently appeared visual for his older cut “Amnesia” the Californian rapper finds inspiration in French Cinema of the 50s and 60s. This time he reenacts “À bout de souffle” by Jean-Luc Godard to underline his Jazz-inspired record. Be on the lookout for Blu’s upcoming offering “theGODleeBarnes” Lp to drop later this year.

The Notorious BIG feat Jay-Z and Nas

The Notorious B.I.G. featuring Jay-Z & Nas - The Eulogy by Hypetrak

This song was created to celebrate and commemorate the life of the late, great Notorious BIG. As the 2nd “Deleted Scene” from the “City of God’s Son” project, I wanted to show my respects by creating this song, and create a parallel world where Biggie still lives.

J.Period & Ralph McDaniels f. The Notorious B.I.G. - "Flava in Ya Ear (March 9 Video Remix)"

J.Period & “Uncle” Ralph McDaniels (Video Music Box, The Bridge) bring Biggie back to life with the “March 9: Video Remix Collection”—a collection of exclusive B.I.G. remixes set to classic videos, in honor of the 13th Anniversary of B.I.G.’s untimely passing. “Flava in Ya Ear (March 9 Video Remix)” marks the first release, a club-shattering blend of old and new that begs the question: where would hip hop be if B.I.G. were still alive!? (Hypetrak)

Blu - So(ul) Amazing

New Nike collection being released in time for the world cup. Keep a beady eye on Nike as they are doing quite a few nice collaborations with football teams for the world cup in South Africa and im hoping they may do some for the Olympic games which, if you didnt already know, are being held in London!

Another artist that ive been really impressed with recently is Apple Juice Kid. I was shown this mixtape by my friend Chris and i really like the simple and mellow style that AJK uses as a opposed to other remixers who may have tried to over complicate things.

Would definitely recommend that you check out his work. He also has a remixed Miles Davis mixtape that i would thouroughly recommend.

Available at: http://applejuicekid.bandcamp.com/album/miles-remixed

Jay Electronica

If you havent heard of this guy i suggest you give this mixtape a listen! He produces Nas' music but is probably the best rapper i have heard in a long time. He has an amazing flow and his lyrics are always evocative. By far and away my fave track of his is one in which he raps over the 'Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind' track.
