A little something to get your Friday night poppin’ and your weekend kicked off right from the Brooklyn-based Alex Mali. Think a more underground but still accessible Rihanna….
With a name and title as generic as this, I wasn’t expecting much but this was aight. There was definitely something to this track by a self-described, “Future R&B/Pop” artist. Agree?

TOMORROW (Thu. Apr. 18) in Toronto:
THE HUSTLE takes you to the 514 for the debut of one of Montreal’s finest next generation emcees, Speng Squire. He’s already caught the ear of some influential folks, and is being developed via one of the majors labels in Canada. We’d love to see you in the spot, and the duo, TRP.P (you say it “trippy”) would love to see you there too! Truss and pHoenix will be doing their debut Hustle with us as a duo and you can check out their EP below. [note: after the jump] Devvy Dior will kick off the night, who has made a previous appearance at THE HUSTLE during Tremayne of StayOutLate‘s most recent set with us. Now you get to see Devvy Dior put down a full set – expect energy!

Is Nicki back in the convo or is Cardi still reigning supreme? (Or is it the height of sexism to pit the two against one another in this way to begin with??)


Some of you may remember DJ Critical Hype, formerly of MTL but now based in Vancouver, from his Chance The Dropout Mixtape from two years ago. Now he’s back with, yes, Kendrick vocals blended over Dre beats on this a 23 track blend tape featuring Kendrick Lamar lyricism blended over Dr. Dre iconic, legendary beats. P+P premiered it and the buzz has spread quickly ever since.
