Lupe Fiasco – Say Something x All The Way Turnt Up [Freestyles / Flows].

Good gracious. Lupe is back. This is like his “I just feel like getting in the studio and flowing” stuff right here, and it’s better than everybody else’s music. That’s precisely why he’s one of the best rappers alive. Easy.

Cush Cush – Overachievers.

modi — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 05:14:28 +0000

yerp. your local clutch city DJ’s are back at it. you may remember when i dropped the last cush cush joint way back when. but it’s ‘09, and dj’s ace boon coon and b*luxe aren’t playing games. at all. one super-track that’s essentially 53 minutes of mayhem, baby. music selection is more eclectic and diverse than new york city. need to throw a party but have no DJ? throw this joint on. trust me

my man brandon “DJ B*Luxe” luckett told me about this lovechild that is his latest mixtape. the tape was crafted for a clothing label, Overachievers and modeling agency, Page Parkes, and features everything from old school rap to reggae to soft core electro. this one really feels like a mixtape, like it should be on a cassette in an old school walkman with the earphones with the thin-ass foam cushion headphones on it that have your ears hurting after an hour. this is called a “1 take” because they recorded it live: “we only had 1-take to get it right otherwise we would have had to start ALLLLL the way back at the beginning.” impressive, right!?

enjoy, listen all the way through, but as always if you don’t like a song, fast forward about two minutes and you’ll probably a region of the musical galaxy that you never would have expected to come next. it’s like that. the file is too big to sample, but i’m trying to get around that. trust me though, it’s worth the download. i wouldn’t steer you wrong. and E-MAIL THEM IF YOU WANT THEM TO ROCK YOUR NEXT PARTY! e-mail address on the album cover.

Wiz Khalifa – The Thrill [Empire of the Sun's "Walking On A Dream" Remix] + What He Shoulda Rapped Over!

modi — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 22:04:05 +0000

More new Wiz, this latest joint is off his forthcoming “Burn After Rollin” mixtape which drops so soon that you can taste it. It’s a remix of “Walking on a Dream” by Australian electronica group Empire of the Sun (who got some love from the hip hop community after Jay-Z reached out and decided to throw them on the BP3).

Honestly, I think if he wanted to remix any song on their album, he shoulda rocked that “Delta Bay”. I hope he reads this and decides to take on that task, because THAT is their craziest track. Nonetheless, it’s a smooth joint. I’ll include the original. My younger brother actually put me on these guys a while back, so credit him for it all. Enjoy.

Clif Soulo – Forever Be Hip Hop [Mixtape].

modi — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 12:10:48 +0000

Clif Soulo mentioned he would be doing this Common-themed album a while back, and the final copy has final . I heard some of the early mixes, which had some quality takes on some great instrumentals used by Common. This mixtape utilizes beats from both “Finding Forever” and “Be.” Big up to our friends EddyNPizzle for providing some graphics.

I recommend y’all check this out and show Clif Soulo some love…for him pursuing his love of hip hop music. Diggin this.

Via Clif Soulo:

“I created this album called Forever Be Hip Hop. It’s my own take on instrumentals from Commons’ album’s Finding Forever and Be. I tried and hopefully was successful in creating a new album introducing myself to the world as “Clif Soulo”, but also paying homage and showing respect to Common. If you get some time, download it, listen, let me know what you think.”

Leave him some direct feedback via his twitter page @ClifSoulo!
