After signing Doughboyz Cash Out, Jeezy hops on their latest track entitled “Mob Life“. Doughboyz Cash Out are the first to sign at CTE World Venture with Atlantic Records. Look out for more music from the Detroit group in the near future, Jeezy might be on to something with this group, if handled properly. Audio after the jump.
Before hitting the stage to perform this track tonight on Jay Leno, The Dream lets go of the Kelly Rowland assisted record “Where Have You Been” which will appear on his “IV Play” album dropping next week. Not sure why Dream is putting out so many records with his album release date approaching but I’m sure it’s a very good reason behind it. Audio after the jump. “IV Play” drops on June 28th.
Although he’s behind bars, Young Scooter is still trying to feed the streets and his fans with some music. Today, he calls in from jail and delivers a few verses over a Zaytoven produced track. Not sure if this will appear on his upcoming “Street Lottery 2” project dropping on July 4th but that project is still being dropped despite him being incarcerated.
B.o.B releases his brand new single “Through My Head” accompanied by the official video. This track will be appearing on his third solo album “Underground Luxury” dropping later this summer. Video directed by Ricardo de Montreuil & Eliz Eskeranli.
We’re a little less than a month away from the sophomore album of Roc Nation‘s J.Cole and today he lets go of his album cover(s). Above is the deluxe edition of the album cover and after the jump you can view the regular version of the album cover. J.Cole also broke down the thought process and meaning of the album cover(s) with MTV, you can view that below. Born Sinner has also been pushed up to June 18th instead of the 25th.
”It’s not necessarily a church theme and it’s not really about church. I like my album themes to be metaphors because it gives me the freedom to speak about something else that’s going on in my life, so the Born Sinner thing is not about church, it’s not even about religion. It’s using that as canvas to get other messages across and that’s what the album will be.”
As promised, Wale lets go of his next single entitled “Love Hate Thing“. This is set to appear on his “The Gifted” album dropping on June 25th. The track is solid but I’m not sure if it’s the right choice for a second single, but hey what do I know. Audio after the jump.
After premiering “Black Slaves” in impressive fashion, Kanye West took his talents to SNL to perform live on stage. His first set he premiered yet another brand new track that is entitled “Black Skinhead” which has more of a pop/rock sound to it. I’ve been seeing mixed reviews about it, but I’m sure opinions will shift once full CDQ audio is available. Performance can be seen above and if you didn’t know, “Yeezus” hits stores June 18th (Hopefully those all red Yeezy 2′s drop then as well).
Rick Ross and Birdman will be teaming up and releasing a joint project next week and to hold us over until then, they release a brand new track entitled “Pop That Pussy“. It doesn’t take a scientist to figure out the topic of discussion in this song. “The H: The Lost Album” coming on May 23rd. Audio after the jump.
