  Miguel feat. Kendrick Lamar “How Many Drinks? (Remix)” (Stream)

  You’ve gotta admire Miguel for not doing the obvious on Kaleidoscope Dream and signing up some rappers for guest appearances. Seems like an album can’t happen without at least six of ‘em. So, it’s easy to forgive him for indulging after the fact, which he’s done on the remix of “How Many Drinks?” Kendrick Lamar [...] (read more)

  Download Big K.R.I.T.’s ‘King Remembered In Time’ mixtape

  It’s hard to believe but King Remembered In Time is Big K.R.I.T. What’s even harder to believe is that it’s taken him eight years to call a mixtape King Remembered In Time. The greatest thing about them, though, is that more often than not they play like proper full-lengths, and judging by a quick first [...] (read more)

  Snoop Lion feat. Drake & Cori B “No Guns Allowed” (Video)

  Gun violence used to be such an American thing, but over the past few years, it’s unfortunately become a Toronto thing. Though you wouldn’t really expect Snoop Dogg to be the first rapper penning an anti-gun anthem, he seems to have really mellowed with age, especially under his new reggae moniker, Snoop Lion. For his [...] (read more)

  Drake “5AM in Toronto” (Video)

  This morning Drake tweeted, “That might be like my first viral video. Doing it for the city this time around. Well every time but this time especially.” Two things: pretty much anything Drizzy does goes viral and pretty much everything he does is for his city.
