Kid Cudi – A Kid Named Cudi (2008)[Mixtape]

Kid Cudi (aka The Man On The Moon) has been getting a lot of buzz lately for his unique blend of hip-hop and bit of electronica as well as his co-sign from big named cats like Kanye West & Pharell. If you like acts like The Cool Kids, Wale, & Jay Electronica you’ll probably love dude and if you’re into acts like Santogold & MIA you’ll be able to appreciate what this cat does as well. Peep the mixtape (if you’re late enough to not have downloaded it until now), and when his debut LP drops, cop it.

Ray Protege – Hip(ster) Hop [Mixtape](2008)

All of the biggest “still-indie-but-almost-major” cats of 2008. Wale, Mic Terror, Kidz in the Hall, Kid Cudi, Cool Kids, Hollywood Holt & Mano, Pacific Divsion, The Knux, Micky Factz and more. Don’t sleep on the kids. Shouts to Rebecca the promoter for hooking me up with this joint (and many others).

BTW, you can cop that shirt here.

U-N-I – Fried Chicken & Watermelon [Mixtape] (2007)

Like Cool Kids? Like Blu? Like Sene, Kidz in the Hall, Wale, The Knux, and Hollywood Holt? Def check these guys out. Hot shit coming out of Cali. Shouts to HHB.

Wale – 100 Miles & Running

Seems like people are feeling that Wale tape I put up yesterday so I figured I’d upload the other tape I had. I think I got this from Breezilla at some point so send your thanks towards her.

The Mixtape About Nothing

Check out the new Wale mixtape.

Video: The Roots – Rising Up (Feat. Wale & Chrisette Michele)

The Roots Rising Down Loosies & Video

I was brought up on The Roots so it goes without saying I’m a huge fan and can’t wait for Rising Down (yes I’ll actually buy it) If you’re fiending for the follow-up to Game Theory as much as I am, I’m here to provide you with temporary relief. Here are 4 tracks (sorry, not the greatest quality) from the new roots album as well as the music video to a song which was unexplicably cut . Rising Down is slated to drop on the 29th of this month so hopefully these’ll last you until then.
