SpaceGhostPurrp - Fuck Lames



SpaceGhostPurrp is back on his dark and grimy shit with "Fuck Lames", which sounds like it could be a left over from his BLVCKLVND RADIO 66.6 days. No word on where this track is from or if it'll even be featured on a project. Hopefully his next project will be more along the lines of this, with that original phonk sound more so than his recent "semi-conscious" raps. 

ScHoolBoy Q - She Like




Pretty dope track from Q off the 2013 XXL Freshmen mixtape.

[Video] Blu - Vanity



The ever so enigmatic artist known as Blu is back with a video and it either has absolutely has nothing to do with the song or it fits it perfectly depending on your point of view. Either way the actual music is dope and classic Blu, good rhymes and dope samples.

[Video] Mac Miller - SDS



After his highly successful debut Blue Slide Park, Mac Miller is back with his latest single "SDS" from his upcoming album Watching Movies with the Sound Off due out June18th. With a video that matches the creatively odd production from Flying Lotus, Mac spits some of his best lyrical wise that I've heard from him in a while. I was initially a Mac fan way back when his KIDS mixtape dropped but after hearing Best Day Ever and Blue Slide Park he lost me. This however is the Mac that I liked way back in 2010 and while most of his new fans seem to think this is to weird (judging by the Youtube comments) I can only hope that the album will have more tracks like this.

[EP] Mann - L.I.S.A.


West L.A. rapper Mann recently released his latest EP L.I.S.A., which just so happens to be one of the best indie releases of the year. Admittedly I was draw to this project because of the cover but I stayed for the music. Mann definitely has his own sound, especially for an California artist, he isn't on that TDE, OF, Bay Area production wave, which is always refreshing. Lyrically L.I.S.A. is strong but the highlight for me was the production. With only seven tracks L.I.S.A. may seem short but the actual length of the tracks prolong the listen, which was my only problem with the project itself. A few tracks could've benefited from being a bit shorter but all in all everything sounds great.
