Rittz – Pie (ft. 8Ball) (produced by DJ Burn One).

Rittz @ PhatKaps

Pie” has a gangster ass guitar and sounds like caviar, yachts, and ice sculptures, but Rittz and 8Ball elect to rap about the simple pleasures of a night at the club. White Jesus finally drops March 8.

Tyler, the Creator – French (Toro y Moi Remix).

Way too much ink has been spilled by people trying to decide if they like Odd Future. The excitement is palpable right now, but it’s hard to tell if people are genuinely interested or if they’re just raising their eyebrows at the group’s audacity. Then again, is there any difference?

Four Tet – Pinnacles.

Four Tet (Kieran Hebdan)

Am I imagining a “Swahililand” sample in here? From Four Tet and Daphni’s new split 12″.

Big K.R.I.T. – Dreamin.

When I think of Big K.R.I.T., showstoppers like “Country Shit” (“LET ME TELL YA ‘BOUT THIS COUNTRY SHIT, COUNTRY COUNTRY SHIT”) and “Pimp Tight” (“MOTHAFUCKA, I WAS PIMP TIGHT”) are the first songs that come to mind. But that’s not to say he can’t break it down in lowercase letters just as well. K.R.I.T. does just that on the first single from his new project, Returnof4eva. The Mississippi rapper/producer reflects on the early stages of his career over a quiet soul sample and at the same time keeps it distinctly Southern. The project drops March 22. Def Jam hasn’t botched his career yet!

DJ Deadeye – Just In Case (ft. Chaundon, O-Dash, Big Pooh) (produced by DJ Deadeye, Lee Bannon).

No bullshit, I’ve actually been waiting for this album from Termanology’s DJ. No, seriously, he’s got the right features and beats in place for a solid compilation album. These joints from 2009 were dope too. Substance Abuse drops March 22.
