Phil Ade- #PhilAdeFriday2 (Mixtape)

Phil Ade is simply one of the best up and coming rappers in America. #PhilAdeFriday2 dropped about 30 mins ago and I have already listened to most of the tracks. It features a good amount of original material, as well as Phil going off on a few beats from other artists. Ade kills it on "Deadlines", one of Drake's best tracks in my opinion. This dude is going to blow up in 2012 no question about it. I tried to be one of the first blogs to upload the tracks for this tape so enjoy!

"Crab Cake"


"Deadlines"


"No Talking"

This is the first I've heard of Perrion, the young emcee out of NY. This is a brand new track featuring Young Money's Jae Millz, and it's called "Everything". This has a very laid-back feel to it and both rappers spit nice verses. Enjoy a solid track.

Sango puts his own spin on The Weeknd's "The Fall". The Clams Casino track was transformed into a completely different sound. This is a very chilled out track incorporating Abel's vocals as well as new production. Enjoy a great remix.

XiT- College (Mixtape)

Another mixtape for you! Straight from the Bronx, XiT dropped College today. I was very impressed by the kids flow. Check out XiT's bandcamp profile here. XiT himself talks about what the tape meant to him. Check out my favorites below as well as the download link.


"college" is exactly what the title suggests... a piece of art born in just that specific environment and thus very much resembles it. this 23 minute mixtape is the first project I've completely written while up in school and the subject matter and sound definitely reflects this. 

written at the fork of the road...... college.


"Collage"

"Seasons"

"City Slicker"

"Do it All"

New T.M.A. Feature: Daily Shuffle: OCD: Moosh & Twist- Possibilites

I am introducing a new feature on the site. Every day, I will dig through my Ipod and select one song that I think you guys will enjoy. I will try to mix it up as much as possible, and provide you with as many genres as possible. Today, I was listening to OCD: Moosh & Twist and came across a song off Up Before The World entitled: Possibilities. I'll admit that this song was overlooked when the tape came out and it's been on repeat all day. I wanted you guys to hear it if you haven't already. Check the site each day for the next daily shuffle track. Enjoy.
