Kid Cudi has released his highly anticipated, “Dose of Dopeness”. A low quality version of this has been online for quite some time now, but it is now out in full form, and its sounding pretty good!
Take a listen:
NEW VIDEO: Jon B- Only One
SMOOOOOOTH
If you crave some classic 90’s r&b vibes, this is it. Jon B is back with this smooth and sexy track. The video has some cheesy effects, but that definitely doesn’t take away from the song itself. This track is off his upcoming album titled ‘Comfortable Swagg‘, good music right here.
GENIUS!

FREE MIXTAPE: Jay Norton – The Spare Room Sessions
Click Cover For FREE Download
I first discovered this talent while doing a random search on youtube, and I was instantly hooked on his vocals. Many youtube videos later, he has graced us with a mixtape titled ‘Spare Room Sessions’. The mixtape is filled with covers from the likes of Robyn and mashups of 2 artists such as James Blake & Wiz Khalifa, and he even threw in a couple of original demos on there. I think this guys vocals are pretty amazing, and it’s definitely just the beginning for him. Can’t wait to see what else he has in store for 2012!
NEW VIDEO: Chris Brown- Turn Up The Music
Chris Brown has been all over everywhere recently, from his Grammy performances, to his rumored appearance on Rihanna’s ‘Birthday Cake’ (I’ll save my thoughts on that one) remix released, with all this talk of course he is going to release a music video for his next single ‘Turn Up The Music’. After previously listening to the song, I actually didn’t like it at all. I think he needs to go back to his R&B roots, or go in the direction that Usher is going in.
But after watching the video, the song kind of grew on me. Chris Brown can’t really go wrong with a dance based video, and he delivers once again. The only thing that bothered me was the MJ tribute in it, while he nailed it, I don’t think dancing like MJ needs to be put in all his videos, especially a track with a dance beat behind it. All that being said, he did deliver with the video and it definitely makes the song a little more worth listening to!
NEW VIDEO: Daley – Alone Together [Ft. Marsha Ambrosius]
AHHHHHH!
If you don’t know Daley, you NEED to! I’m so glad that 2 of my favorite tracks got video treatment, first ‘Smoking Gun’ now ‘Alone Together’ featuring the beautiful and talented Marsha Ambrosius. This video just oozes smooth sexy vibes, and I love every minute of it. The mixtape is so good, and the videos make it so much better!
This is only just the beginning.
NEW MUSIC: Busta Rhymes – Why Stop Now (Remix) [Ft. Missy Elliott, Lil Wayne, & Chris Brown]
Busta enlisted the legendary Missy Elliott and some other non important people for this big club track. I like the original, but the remix is SO much better. I’m bassically just interested in Missy appearing on tracks again. Her most recent collab with J.Cole is set to debut a music video soon too.Her album is due out sometime this year and if she still has the same creativity, she will blow out the charts just like she deserves to.

NEW VIDEO: Jessie Ware-Running
Yesterday I posted about Jessie Ware’s new track ‘Running’ and now she has graced us with the official video for it! This track is definitely a big one, with its 90’s feel to it and that guitar background. The video is simple, but it doesn’t need much of a visual when the song is that detailed. The production in this song is amazing and it fits perfectly with the soulful vocals of Jessie.
heavy rotation.
NEW EP: The Weeknd- ‘Balloons of Haus’ (Chi Duly Remix)
This isn’t an official The Weeknd mixtape, but rather a remixed version by Chi Duly, of some of his biggest tracks from previous mixtapes. It adds a more trance/house kind of feel to most of the tracks, taking away the R&B side of it and giving it a little more beat and bass. I haven’t heard the whole thing through yet, but from what I have heard its definitely not as good as the originals, but it doesn’t disappoint either. Anyway decide for yourself!
Also if you haven’t heard of The Weeknd, ‘House of Balloons‘ is still on HEAVY rotation
Thanks to Pinboard for the EP
NEW MUSIC: Usher – Climax (Prod. by Diplo)
THIS is where Usher belongs! A little R&B and a little Electronic vibe. I absolutely LOVE this track. His dance stuff did sell quite a bit, but I definitely see this doing well if people know whats good. The track is produced by one of my favorite DJ’s, Diplo. I’m not sure what the track is for, it might be for Diplo’s album, because I haven’t heard talks for Usher’s album yet, but who knows!

FREE EP: Ed Sheeran & Yelawolf – Slumdon Bridge
(Click Cover For Download)
ahhhhhh!
Been waiting for this since I heard his first single off of it ‘You Don’t Know (For Fuck’s Sake)’. This EP is something you would have never expected but it works oh so well. While it is only 4 tracks long, its FREE and its AWESOME from what I have heard so far. I definitely recommend you download and listen to right away.
GOOD MUSIC!
Long Live Music
