Directed by Addison Wright and J. Frank Lili K takes us back to the 1950s, or maybe 1960s, or just some time when I wasn’t alive for her dope new video “Tommy.” This is a v creative and entertaining clip, so this time capsule back to yesteryear comes as a highly recommended watch. Seriously, they…

Paul McCartney To Co-Produce Entire New Kanye West Album
Yeah, you might have A-list such and such producer handling the sound of your new album, but chances are slimmer than Ronald Williams that it’s a former Beatle. But leave it up to Yeezus himself to land Paul McCartney as the co-producer of his as-yet-to-be-titled new album due out in 2015. Last night the tandem…

Young Buck f/ Cap 1 – Gas Up
Produced by Slade Da Monsta. Something new from Rozay Richie and Young Buck, courtesy of Trigga Da DJ. No word on where this joint is from or what it will land on, but I wouldn’t be mad if it was set to appear on a collaborative project from Cap and Buck. That’s unlikely, but hey —…

The Westside’s own, Westside Flee, is back with “Shorty,” which includes a nicely chopped soul sample. Matter of fact it has that Dipset feel to it — as in it wouldn’t have sounded out of place on like Diplomatic Immunity 2 or something. It’s dope. Check out “Shorty” below.
