I have never listened to the Monsters of Folk before this song but it is pretty freaking good. I enjoy the concept of “Dear God” and also the overall, mellow sounds created by the group with the help from the Roots. Three people also taking lead vocals at different points in the song is something [...]

Here is the newest video from Black Noise, a group that is getting their first post on B&B (yes Black Noise, you have officially made it now lol). My friend Tyler hit me last week with some of their stuff and I saw this video and had to post it. Even if you aren’t into [...]

Emilio_Rojas-Piano_Bounce__Prod_DJ_Green_LanternEmilio just let us know that his long awaited mixtape with Green Lantern, The Natural, is pushed back even further. I am not sure what is with the delays but I am excited to get this tape the second it drops, Emilio has really been creating quite the buzz for himself. This song is over [...]

Diamond District – GullyYep, more DD for that ass, which I rated my number two album of the year last night.Celebrating their recent release, the members of DMV’s luminary hip-hop trio Diamond District take fans back to their birth, re-introducing the track “Gully” off of emcee/producer Oddisee’s album Foot in the Door. This percussive, up-tempo [...]

Cunninlynguists-Streets__Feat_Sean_Price__Poison_PenI’m playing some more catch up with this song which was released yesterday and features some underrated NYC artists who I honestly don’t listen to enough. The beat for this song is very interesting to me, the loop is cut so it seems to always be pushing the beat forward which was awkward at first [...]

I need to take a break after typing out that title, it easily wins for longest title of the year. Seriously though, it is time to play a little bit of catch up. I didn’t have the opportunity to post at all this morning due to a long night celebrating my birthday but now is [...]

We saw some behind the screen shots of this video and it turned out pretty good. You really need to take a listen to Phil’s lyrics, his punchlines are always original and some of the best out of the younger cats doing it in the game. I also didn’t know Phil was the one singing [...]

06 we are godThanks again to Al at Government Names for turning me on to another dope B-More artist. I hadn’t heard much about Cutthroat before this song but I know it stood out to me, both the musicality of it and the performance. Mobtown Studios has a series where they film these “microshows” at [...]

Cunninlynguists feat. Freddie Gibbs – ImperialDamn I am so sorry I slept on this group for so long, just about everything I listen to I like and end up listening to almost all of it. This time they get Freddie Gibbs, whose name I have seen out there but I haven’t listened to any of [...]

A quick, short video from Nando where he taps into his inner Tribe Called Quest and hops on an a jazzy beat. Wes Felton shot the video and it is mostly effects but pretty good for a short song like this one. I actually would like to see this song lengthened into a the time [...]

S-Preme-V.I.P__Feat._Roisin_MurphyThis is the newest single from S-Preme’s upcoming Sicktape Vol: 2 and could be one of my favorite songs of his to date. The overall sound for this track is very polished and I was really feeling it. When I hear new S-Preme, almost every time he has outdone himself from before which is the mark [...]

01 Hard f. Young Jeezy 1I wanted to post more hip-hop but honestly it has been pretty slow the past couple days so more Rihanna, this time though I actually like it. Rihanna channels her inner-rapper for this one and talk about how she is hard, which is kind of ridiculous but it is still [...]

XV- Vizzy Zone FreestyleThanks to Twitter we have another release from an artist and this is XV going in over the beat for Cudi’s song “Cudi Zone”. I wasn’t too big on the title for this song but after realizing it was just a quick freestyle I realized it didn’t really matter lol. According to [...]

Wordsmith-Heavy_Metal_Mics__Prod_DJ_BlessThis song is from DJ Bless & Wordsmith’s upcoming project which I don’t know the title for lol. “Heavy Metal Mics” is not from Smith’s upcoming mixtape out on Dec. 7th called Overdue & Underrated, although it is good enough that it could’ve been had he wanted it. I’ll be honest, I have never heard [...]

I haven’t had the opportunity to post any of these as they have come out over the past week so I will post them all together now as a three part set. Lyrically, S-Preme is one of my favorites of the young cats from anywhere. His metaphors are always solid and like Lupe, sometimes I [...]

This is a topic of conversation for anyone who is from the area and also something I have attempted to explain outsiders but I think Oddisee breaks it down better than I ever did. Being in the middle of the North and South gives the area a unique sound and I’m glad artists are recognizing [...]

Rihanna-Bubble PopRihanna kept her new album, Rated R, under wraps for a while but now some of the tracks have started to hit the net. This song is produced by Will.i.am and is alright but I am not really feeling it after the first listen. It is, however, the return of the more cheery-pop oriented [...]

I am excited to listen to this tape, the joint “The Thrill” was on point!Ahem… Taylor Gang bitch! Alright, now that that’s out of the way. Here’s what ya’ll have been waiting for. Wiz Khalifa links up with DJ Ill Will & DJ Rockstar for his latest mixtape.Grab the tracklist and download after the break.Spotted [...]

The Black Keys – “Stay Off The Fuckin’ Flowers” feat. RaekwonYet another leaked single off of the new Dame Dash/Black Keys project, Blakroc, coming out the 27th of November. The moment this track started, I immediately thought it was so dirty and so raw – which is perfect for Raekwon. Honestly, try listening to this track [...]

This video was inevitable seeing as how much this song deserved one. Shit, I’ve never even visited New York (which is a damn shame and definitely a must in my lifetime) and I still got chills when I saw the live performance footage from the MSG show. There have been so many odes to New York in song, [...]
