Alchemist – Rookies of the Future (ft. Riff Raff, Action Bronson).

In the space of two songs, Riff Raff compares himself to Rick James, Obama, Toucan Sam, Ryu from Street Fighter, Macho Man Randy Savage, and Eric Clapton. The scary part? He’s not far off. Below are “Rookies of the Future” with Alchemist and Action Bronson and “Drip” with Curtis Williams and Mike..

Statik Selektah – Carry On (ft. Joey Bada$$, Freddie Gibbs), Video.

Here’s a video for the occasional lighting-in-a-bottle Statik Selektah track. They filmed it where I walk on my lunch break when I’m trying to digest Chipotle. Sphere: Related Content

Your Bi-Annual Dump of New Future Tracks (Including that Justin Bieber Heat Rock).

It’s been transitional year for Future. In 2014 he released his sophomore album (a dud despite great singles), a younger, weirder version of him named Young Thug stole some of his thunder, and his engagement to Ciara just fell apart (or not?). A new mixtape due Fall will be called Evol according to Buzzfeed. So what were..

Slum Village – Yes Yes, Video.

Throwback rap videos are the best rap videos. See also People Under the Stairs’ “Trippin at the Disco” and of course Snoop’s immaculate “Sensual Seduction”. Also, Dilla beat. Sphere: Related Content

Verse Simmonds – Sexy Body (Remix) (ft. Kid Ink, Eric Bellinger).

The “Buy You a Round” guy copped another one and it’s what we 90s babies call a club banger! All he had to do was flip “Doin It” by LL Cool J. The smarter R&B cats figured out a long time ago that singing over a 90s hip-hop smash is a guaranteed..

Alchemist – In Heaven’s Home (ft. Prodigy, Roc Marciano).

Only one track on Alchemist’s gospel-sampling instrumental album has rapping on it, so Alchemist called the two best rappers in his rolodex. ALC has the clout to bring the game’s best along for his wacky crate-digging adventures, but I don’t think Roc Marciano and Prodigy needed much convincing with a beat this cold. Two..
