Drake - Find Your Love

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010



Drake shot the “Find Your Love” video in Kingston, Jamaica and got the help of Mavado who plays a gangster in the forbidden love story. I thought Drake was an actor? Not the most convincing role from Drake but in any case here is the video. And if the patios was too much, check this for a translation.

Nas & Damian Marley - Patience

Thursday, May 6th, 2010



Yet another released Distant Relatives track, at this point I’m wondering what I haven’t heard from the LP yet. I think they have proven that its going to be good, so hopefully the next time I am listening to the a track on the album its because it May 18th. Needless to say this is another good work from collabo.

Homeboy Sandman is getting ready to drop his new album on June 1st. Here is a track that didn’t make on the album. Yes, its a dope track too, so I’m assuming he’s got more bangers on the way.

New music from Nas & Jr. Gong: “My Generation” & “Friends”.

Friday, April 30th, 2010

This is getting kind of ridiculous.

I feel like we’ve posted the whole album already. It’s been good music all-round though, so I don’t think anyone’s complaining, but geez. This time, they’ve brought Joss Stone and Lil’ Wayne along for the ride.

Check out the tracks below…

“Friends”
