M.O.P. And Maino Pay Tribute To Their Borough In “Welcome 2 Brooklyn” Video
"Welcome 2 Brooklyn" probably isn't going to become hip-hop's anthem for Brooklyn, but it's still a solid tribute. Monday brings the video to M.O.P. and Maino's joint and features scenes from the city that Taylor Swift isn't accustomed to: Brownsville, Fort Greene (closer by the projects), et al...
DuRu Tha King And Deniro Farrar Take You Through The Hustle In “Torn Love”
"Torn Love" by DuRu Tha King and Deniro Farrar takes a bleaker look at hustling — one where there's no hope and death around corner. The song gets a fitting video where colors are muted and preachers are portrayed as zealots speaking to an empty choir. In d...
Future Wears “I Can’t Breathe” T-Shirt In “Mad Luv” Video
Monster was so good that some might even argue that it's better than the Honest album. That's an argument for another day, but Future still saw it fit to deliver a video for "Mad Luv" — a cut off the mixtape. It's his first new video of 2015.
I...

DuRu Tha King’s Party Gets Wild In “Free Spirit” Video
DuRu Tha King is another artist not to sleep on heading into the new year. An example of why is "Free Spirit" — a cut that features hazy atmospherics, jazzy textures, and solid rhyming skills for a worthwhile three minutes.
The video channels the song's vibe fluently. Here...
Young Thug “Pelican Fly”
Young Thug is as much of a workhorse as he is an eccentric. His stream of material is still continuing as the year winds down. This time he hits us with the celebratory "Pelican Fly."
This one has the same feel as "Lifestyle," except with 100 percent more Young Thug...
Stream Rae Sremmurd’s ‘SremmLife’
After running the summer with "No Flex Zone" and "No Type," Rae Sremmurd's debut studio album is finally here. And a week earlier than expected, too. SremmLife comes with the two aforementioned cuts and guest spots from Young Thug, Nicki Minaj and Big Sean...
Chris Crack Takes Us Through A Night In Chicago In “Today” Video
Chris Crack is fond of weed and adventures in his home city. Not so much of oversaturating the market ("Dropping music every week, man, that's not shit"). Crack isn't really here for the lesson in marketing, though; he's just out here in the video for "Today." Th...
Berner Featuring Curren$y, The Jacka And Smiggs “Cry”
Berner has recently invested in Marijuna.com — which is something like a "weed Pinterest.” That's a perfect tie-in for a new song. He puts on marijuana connoisseur Curren$y, The Jacka and Smiggs for "Cry." The four trade rhymes over a twinkling, soulful instrumental that sounds like...well, somethin...
Young Thug “Cloud 9″
We got London On Da Track. And Young Thug, too. The proven collaborators connect once again on Christmastime loosie "Cloud 9."
Young Thug's near-indecipherable nuttiness is in full effect here. People don't listen to Young Thug for lyrical miracles, though; he's an enigma...
Ty Dolla $ign Has A Run-In With Sexy Police In Wiz Khalifa’s “You And Your Friends” Video
"You And Your Friends," a Blacc Hollywood single that features Ty Dolla $ign and Snoop Dogg, is getting a video this Monday. It's looking like more of the same. Wiz Khalifa is seen wearing a robe inside a greenhouse. He calls up Ty Dolla $ign, who's been pulled over by officers...
King Chip “Harley”
In "Harley," a woman whose mind is right pulls up on a Harley and becomes the wind beneath King Chip's wings. Chip also thinks he has what she needs: "Money I been chasin' might just spark a conversation." Is money all he has to offer, though...
