Johny Hawkins "OG (Mixtape Download)"

This is a submission by an Atlanta mc by the name of Johny Hawkins with his 3rd mixtape entitled "OG." I don't know much about Johny Hawkins, but I am feeling this tape so far. I'm still in the midst of listening to the full tape, but I am definitely feeling the samples used in here from classics like Master P, Pimp C (R.I.P.), Three 6 Mafia and Bun B. I wish I had more of a bio to post about Hawkins, but right now just know that this tape has a great feel to it with an 80s/90s kind of vibe to it. Download and check the kid Johny Hawkins out, I'm sure you will dig him like I do.

Yelawolf 'Happy Father's Day'

Haven't been posting in a while, but guess who's back and in time for Father's Day...meee. In honor of the day, here's a brand new track by one of my personal favorites Yelawolf with 'Happy Father's Day.' After hearing it a few times, I'm really digging it. It's something different from him coming hard every track and I feel like he's a bit more laid back in terms of delivery, but always bringing it in terms of lyrical ability. I like how he's telling a story in the song where you hang on every word to visualize what it is that he's saying in the song. The compliment of the beat also brings out the lyrics of the song. This is the first new track I've heard from Yela in a minute now and I'm loving it as well. Happy Father's Day to the father's doing whatever they can to provide for their kids.

Asher Roth 'Outside'

Shoutouts to Ash Roth for the new track he dropped today called 'Outside.' A much needed track, because I've been wanting some new Roth for a minute now and I feel like it's something for us computer lames who stay inside all day blogging (I know I haven't really been active on here, but I'm still on the music scene). It's just a nice laid back track about not letting the day/your life pass by you by staying in the house all day, just go out there and enjoy what's out there. Make the most of your life. This will definitely be my theme for those days where I just want to try and kick it in the crib all day doing nothing, but blogging my summer away. Definitely take a listen, and then head outside and enjoy the day.

KiD CuDi 'Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some More Of This Whiskey!"

Yes, Yes, yes yes YESSSSSS. Some new new KiD CuDi. I still haven't had the chance to cop "WZRD," Cudders' Rock album with Dot Da Genius (and I've also been holding off listening to tracks from the album until I actually go out and buy it). So pretty much I've been kicking it with some old CuDi just waiting on him to drop some new rap music, and I saw at one of his shows he dropped a sweet little freestyle, proceeded to hint at new music on his twitter account, and bam bam bam here it is. This sweet track is entitled, "Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some More Of This Whiskey!" which is something that KiD CuDi himself has produced since his 'Super Boo' track a while back. I'm definitely digging the beat, it has some 'Ghost' undertones to it with a little guitar with it (I just read his tweet that he reversed 'Ghost' and then added guitar and drums to the beat), and CuDi continues to prove to his fans that he still has it. I definitely needed this to hold me over for Man on the Moon III, so from CuDi to me to you, here's 'Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some More Of This Whiskey!"

Soulja Boy 'Say She Luv Me (feat. Chief Keef)'

I know you're probably looking at the title like "Soulja Boy?" and it's only because it's his song, but he only spits one verse and gets obliterated on the track by newcomer Chief Keef. As of late, Keef has been my new favorite artist, and after hearing his "I Don't Like" song (featuring Lil Reese) I just had to hear more from him. Maybe it's the fact that Keef is fairly young (I was told like 17), from the Midwest area (Chicago to be exact) and he's just so gritty on the mic that attracts me to his music. I've heard comparisons to Lil B and Waka Flocka in terms of Keef's music, and I just think he's his own person with his own style. I saw an interview somebody did with Chief Keef and he seems not shy, but he's not an attention seeker. He's not doing this for the fame, and it seems like he doesn't like it when people run up to him in public places asking for pictures and what not. I just wish him the best and I hope he keeps bringing the heat and banging out some dope music. Oh and he and Riff Raff are working on a music video coming out sometime next week I believe.

Hardo & Deezlee "Fame or Feds (Rap or Bricks)"

I was recently put onto the guy Hardo a few weeks back after watching his 'Cut Throat' music video where he was spitting his verses in a room full of his crip representatives and I just had to download his mixtape "Fame or Feds (Rap or Bricks)" when it came out. I don't know the exact like genre of rap I would call his music, but I'm really digging it. I heard (through the wire), that Hardo is/was (not really sure) locked up which is a shame because he and Deezlee came hard on this tape. I'd have to say that currently my favorite track off of this is 'Follow' me which also features Slave. I think I have a love of songs that rappers put out that tell you to follow them on twitter. I don't know what it is. Other than that just listen and download "Fame or Feds (Rap or Bricks)" if you living that trappin lifestyle then you should be able to relate, if not it doesn't hurt to perpetrate that lifestyle (as everyone else in the world is doing).

Robb Bank$ "Calendars (Mixtape)"

I've been listening to Robb Bank$ for a minute now, and I know little about him, but what I do know is that he makes some fresh music. I first got hip to him from his 'Counting' music video which has some great visuals along with a just rock/rap beat type of instrumental going on that you just can't not love. Bank$ born in New York (I forget where exactly), but raised in Florida describes his music as things he's witnessed day to day growing up, and just his experiences. With every track off of his solo debut, "Calendars" you'll get something different atop some incredible beats. I'm definitely impressed by his sound and I would love to meet him if I ever got the chance to, and I'm interested in listening to his group stuff as the other half of Tuesday Thru Sunday with Matt Meyer Lansky. So far my favorite track off of the "Calendars" mixtape would have to be 'Fine/The Come Down pt. 2' there's just something about Bank$' flow and the beat that makes this song irresistible.
