Machine Gun Kelly feat. Pusha T & Meek Mill – Peso

MGK PESO

 

Although I am not the biggest MGK fan, the features on this track stood out and so I swallowed my pride and gave it a listen. With a catchy hook, great sample (“I Need a Dollar” the theme song from Kid Cudi’s HBO show How to Make it in America), and a great supporting cast; this song surpassed my expectations. Definitely worth a listen. Enjoy.

Jhene Aiko – Comfort Inn Ending

With No I.D. on the boards, Jhene Aiko gifts us with a short and soulful new tune, which she made in the comfort of her inn. Her debut album Souled Out is due later this year.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – Can’t Hold Us (Major Lazer Remix)

Diplo has taken a break from posting about the new Daft Punk album, Random Access Memories, on his Twitter and Facebook to release his new remix of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ Can’t Hold Us. In this edition of the popular Hip-Hop song, Macklemore’s lyrics take a backseat to the phenomenal vocals of Ray Dalton. Combine these powerful vocals with typical Major Lazer bass-heavy, drum machine claps, this song is a trap jam that will turn any party into a rowdy and rambunctious function.

Up and coming out of Queens, you may not be fully familiar with his talents, but heres a track off his new tape as a  preview. Assisted by Dreamville partner, J. Cole, they ride over a smooth, Miguel sampled production. If you like what you hear, “Quarter Water Raised Me Vol. 2″ is available here to download.

After performing the song at several shows since March, Earl officially releases “Guild,” a gritty cut, with noticeably lowered voice pitches, to be featured on his upcoming project, Doris.  With the release of “Chum,” “Woah,” and “Guild,” it looks like Doris is shaping up to be very well-worth the wait.

Bassnectar – Here Come The Bastards

Bassnectar has not released an EP since the Freestyle Mixtape in the Fall but I feel like one is right around the corner, in the mean time, he keeps releasing snippets of songs he has done and the latest is absolutely absurd, in the good sense. Primus has released a Deluxe Edition of Sailing in the Seas of Cheese and on it is Bassnectar’s “Here Come the Bastards” remix. The song is almost violent in nature as it hits excessively hard, but Bassnectar sticks to his script of luring the listener in with the lyrics and soft singing and then releasing the energy filled bass drop. Enjoy the preview below:

The Underachievers – May’s Patience
