[MP3] Dutch – Free Up
Latest single from DUTCH, a rapper I was just introduced to from Toronto with a ‘new perspective on art.’ He’s an artist in every sense of the word too: a painter, producer, designer, and rapper. Dude’s music is very much in the ‘New Toronto’ vein, sound-wise (think Drake, Tory Lanez, Jazz Cartier, Sean Leon, The Weeknd, Partynextdoor etc.). Is it breaking any new ground? Not really if I was gonna keep it all the way 100. But is it any good? Can’t front, it is. Check it! And for a bonus ICYMI, check his track, “No Measure” from a few months back after the jump…
[MP3] Nas & Erykah Badu – This Bitter Land
Amazing new Nas x Erykah Badu track from the forthcoming soundtrack to the film, The Land which stars Badu and is executive produced by Nas.

[MP3] Skrillex & Rick Ross – Purple Lamborghini
Can’t front. This record by Skrillex and Rozay, from the Suicide Squad soundtrack, is CRAZY!
[MP3] Two Recent Tracks From Tory Lanez – Controlla (Swave Session Remix) / August 19
The motivation behind this “Controlla” remix, which dropped a while back but is posted here ICYMI, probably didn’t endear Tory to Drizzy but hey, it keeps things interesting….
Ah f-ck it, here goes Tory’s remix of DJ Khaled‘s “I Got the Keys” too:
[MP3 + Music Video] Big Kish – The Last Word
Following the excellent shot-on-iPhone music video, “Mantra” I posted back in March, the homie, Big Kish has dropped another music video for the track, “The Last Word.” This one is a mediation on his, at times, estranged relationship with his dad which he released, appropriately enough, right around Father Day. It’s an emotionally heavy record but not done in a heavy-handed way and further proof that hip-hop can handle mature, adult topics and doesn’t always have to dwell on the superficial. Nice one, Kish!
