Download the new Rick Ross Mixtape - Rich Forever

Check out the star-studded new mixtape by Rick Ross. It's got features ranging from Drake and Diddy to Nas and Pharell. There's been a couple of pretty excellent videos released in support of it (Stay Schemin' ft. French Montana and Drake is especially good). So, check those out right below and download the mixtape at Live Mixtapes right here.

New Drake video - The Motto ft. Lil Wayne and Tyga

Check out Drake's new video. It's got the same stylish, choppy camera work as the Headlines video (check that video out here). Also! Tons of a great cameos throughout. Also, it's important to remember what a great track this is, all on its own. In my opinion, The Motto places second, right behind Superbass by Nicki Minaj, as the bossest bonus track on an album this year. So, commence to digging it.

James Drake, fo real.

This is the last you will be hearing about Drake from me for a while, I promise. I've just been saying to my friends, "The beat on 'Look What You've Done' sounds just like a James Blake beat!" Turns out, he had a vinyl of James Blake's first LP ON DISPLAY IN THE FUCKING STUDIO. So, yeah, here's an excerpt from the Rolling Stone piece that totally proves me right.


"Drake is home in Toronto, recording at his longtime producer Noah "40" Shebib's studio. The vibe is industrial yet cozy: exposed brick, low lighting, plenty of high-grade weed and virtually no decoration aside from a vinyl copy of U.K. dubstep crooner James Blake's debut on a windowsill. "This is home," says Drake, wearing a T-shirt, black jeans and work boots. "If I'm in a big expensive studio, it starts messing with my head about what kind of music I should be making."

Take Care by Drake leaked today.

Right on. I mean, I hope he sells a lot of records, but I didn't want to wait. 

Download the new Drake track - It's produced by Jamie XX and samples Gil Scott-Heron

Well, looks like Gil Scott-Heron's contributions to the world of hip hop are finally being appreciated. First, it was Kanye West, sampling his work on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Now, Drake just debuted the title track for Take Care, and it extensively samples a track from the Jamie XX/Gil Scott-Heron collaboration We're New Here. It's exciting to see, and I'm thrilled that Jamie XX is billed as producer. Meanwhile, Drake continues to impress. Take Care drops November 15. I just hope that it gets leaked before then. Listen to the track, which features Rihanna, below, then download it through this hulkshare link if you feel so inclined.

New Drake Video: "Headlines."

I feel like Drake doesn't mind being pigeonholed as a emcee for women. They buy an astonishing number of his records and throw hundreds of bras on stage at his shows. Let me just say, though, he is more than a sex symbol. Drake is a phenomenal rapper, and Take Care ranks high on my list of most anticipated fall releases. For some evidence, check out the video for "Headlines" (also, there's a free mp3 download right here).  Try not to smile when he says, "Listen to you expressin all them feelings. / Soap opera niggas sound like All My Children."
