YG Hootie - Two Presidents ft Kendrick Lamar

Bricksquad Monopoly's YG Hootie (not to be confused with "My Nigga") links up with Kendrick Lamar for this standout track "Two Presidents" from the former's upcoming project Destroy & Rebuild. I know I've said this multiple times now but trap artists need to just grab Kendrick for all their lead singles because dude goes off and brings something out of them in return. 

For more evidence peep Kendrick's "Cartoon & Cereal" and Fredo's "Jealous". All hail King Kendrick.

Fredo Santana - Jealous ft Kendrick Lamar

The self-proclaimed "King Of Chicago" Fredo Santana links up with the self-proclaimed "King Of New York" Kendrick Lamar for this unexpected track entitled "Jealous". I don't know what it is with Kendrick but he somehow seems to bring out the best in "trap" rappers, just like his collab with Gunplay, this is definitely the best I've heard from Fredo. Fredo with Kendrick on the track now that's a truly scary sight...

Black Hippy - The Heart Pt. 3 (Will You Let It Die?), Swimming Pools & The Recipe

In celebration of his sophomore album good kid, m.A.A.d city ,Kendrick Lamar dropped part three to his legendary "The Heart" series. It's good to hear the whole Black Hippy crew together once again. The crew also did remixes to both of Kendrick's single "Swimming Pools (Drank)" and "The Recipe". Be sure to buy and support GKMC, the game needs more artists like Kendrick and the Black Hippy crew.

Kendrick Lamar - Backseat Freestyle (prod. Hit-Boy)

"Backseat Freestyle" is the latest track from GKMC to leak, Kendrick backed by a beat from Hit-Boy proceeds to spit a "freestyle". Starting way back with The Recipe, Swimming Pools, Compton and now this I haven't really felt a single/leak yet. It just seems as if there is something missing, those tracks don't have that usual Kendrick feel to me whether it be the beat or the lyrics. I still have hope though, Kendrick has yet to disappoint project wise and I doubt he will. good kid, m.A.A.d city arrives October 22nd.

Kendrick Lamar - Art of Peer Pressure

New leak from Kendrick Lamar called "Art of Peer Pressure", no word on if this will appear on his debut good kid, m.A.A.d city although judging by the subject matter of the track I can only assume it will as it follows the theme of GKMC. Either way will find out next month on the 22nd of October when good kid, m.A.A.d city finally drops. Spotted at TheTapeDeck.

Nitty Scott, MC - Flower Child ft Kendrick Lamar

Something new from the insightful rhymer Nitty Scott, MC "Flower Child" featuring Compton's Kendrick Lamar. Over a smooth soothing beat produced by Paul Boogie, Nitty spits some of the best I've heard from her. Kendrick handles the hook and drops a short guest verse that doesn't disappoint. I think this my be may favorite record of the year so far. Be sure to support and cop The Boombox Diaries when it drops on iTunes August 28th. S/O EHH.

Frank Ocean - Bend Ya ft Kendrick Lamar & Shawn Chrystpoher

Seemingly out of nowhere we get the long awaited Frank Ocean and Kendrick Lamar collab "Bend Ya", Kendrick handles the first verse while Frank sings the hook and than after that it gets a little trippy once Shawn Chrystopher comes in. Let's hope there is more tracks between the two because this definitely isn't what I expected when it was annouced that K-Dot and Frank were working together. Spotted over at TheTapeDeck.

Kendrick Lamar - Westside, Right On Time ft Young Jeezy
