DJ Kenn AllOrNothing f/ Pretty N Pink – Street Sh**
Okay, so Kenn’s The World Is Ours project didn’t drop last Friday as planned. But that’s no big deal, as he plans to make the project even bigger and better — and sometimes that takes extra TLC. Tonight he returns with “Street Shit” featuring the femcee troop, Pretty N Pink. Not sure where Kenn found…
Frank Leone – 0-Ahaaa
Some funky fly newness from that boy Frank Leone. Apparently, Frank will be dropping new music each and everyday this week. The joints he’s letting lose were songs that didn’t make his forthcoming project, EnterWILD. There must be something wrong with my ears, because this joint sure sounds damn good to me. Well, cutting room…
Yay Diego – All The Time
Some new new courtesy of WeMeanBiz repper Yay Diego. Shouts to DJ Victoriouz on the alley oop. Yay does this all the time. Need proof? Hit the jump and press play. It’s all there, all the time.
Chief Keef Has Been Dropped By Interscope Records
Damn. AllHipHop is reporting that Chief Keef has been quietly released from his Interscope Records recording contract. If you remember correctly, Keef was inked to a very lucrative multi-million dollar deal two years ago that resulted in one album, Finally Rich, which has since moved under 200,000 units. AHH says Interscope and the Glo Gang crew…

Lil Chris f/ Icy Duck – Can’t Compain
Chris has been working like crazy as of late, and today gives us a brand new joint alongside Lawless Inc. signee, Icy Duck. One thing we can’t complain about? New Chris music. This is from his new album, Made It Through The Struggle, hosted by DJ MoonDawg, due out later this year.
A-Villa f/ Action Bronson, Roc Marciano & Willie The Kid – Live From The Villa
I’m not sure where A-Villa is rounding up these line ups, but cot damn. He’s got some high profile features from artists you’d probably never hear together otherwise. But he somehow makes them sound dope. I think he’s just picking names of out a hat and then seeing if he can make them come together…
YP – Thinkin’ Bout
Produced by Doc Da Mindbenda New music from Your Prince is now upon us. After dropping one of the dopest and most inspired albums of his career a few months back with Backwood Jones, YP returns with another fire drop, “Thinkin’ Bout.” If you were even thinkin’ bout skipping over this, you better think again….
Video: Saba f/ Eryn Allen Kane – Burnout
Directed by HOTC TV Finally, my favorite track from Saba’s stellar project, ComfortZone, gets a video. The video is absolutely fantastic, and features the super-dope Eryn Allen Kanye on the hook. This is like the 2014 rap version of Pee Wee’s Playhouse. Unfortunately, I think both artists might be too young to get that reference….
