BanksyNY



The infamous Banksy has unveiled his latest street art project, an impromptu art gallery to take place on the very streets of New York City. He plans to put up new pieces over the course of October 2013, and will accompany his 'artist residency' with an audio guide to better explain his work. You can visit his project website under www.banksyny.com, where he has already uploaded his first piece. Notice the preface, which is a quote by the famous artist, Paul Cézanne; "All pictures inside, in the studio, will never be as good as those done outside."

Vic Mensa - INNANETAPE

Good morning! If you haven't gotten Vic Mensa's 'INNANETAPE' yet, get it here. It's a beautiful work of art, and definitely worth your valuable time.

Danny Brown - OLD

I might be biased as I am a huge Danny Brown fan, but after my first listen this album, it is already high up on my contenders for the Album of the Year honours. The album is split into two parts. Danny is more serious on the first part of the album talking about living in Detroit and the struggles he went through. On the second part, Side B, Danny is in his party mode. Side B is filled with bangers (except for the last track) that could easily make it into any party playlist. Overall, I really (really) enjoyed the album. Production is amazing, Danny is lyrically on point and all of the features did a great job as well. I highly recommend you to stream the album below and go pre-order it as it is coming out on the 8th of October. Complex did an amazing cover story on Danny that you should definitely check out. Link to the story.
Also make sure to check out his AMA he is doing on /r/hiphopheads right now.

Going Home with Iman Europe and Jarraeu Vandal

I didn't really like/get the newest video for Drake's 'Hold On We're Going Home' (Were those rhinestone teardrops really necessary?). What I get behind is this lush remix by Jarraeu Vandal with Iman Europe on the vocals. Enjoy!

Ferrofluid


Whenever these two ( Sinjin Hawke and Morri$) team up something great happens. This time is a new track titled 'Ferrofluid' that came out with the video above which has been done by Cyberlight for FractalFantasy.

Today's Track: Don't Be Shy (Wave Racer Remix)


Australian producer, Wave Racer comes up with a huge remix of DCUP's 'Don't Be Shy' track. The remix has a similar sound to the likes of the Scottish producers such as Rustie,Hudmo and Lockah. As we are big fans of these producers, this was an easy track to pick as one of our favorite of today.
