Ab-Soul - Terrorist Threats ft. Danny Brown & Jhene Aiko
This one's sorta got that 'Druggys WitH Hoes Again' feel to it. I would love to see Danny Brown on some more TDE tracks in the future.

Drake - Take Care ft. Rihanna [Video] x HYFR [Video]
Two very different videos, but both equally as risky. I mean, who else can get away with filming their re-bar mitzvah and turning it into a music video other than Drake? Maybe Kanye if he was Jewish. Clearly 'Take Care' is the more dominant of the two tracks, but which video is everyone feeling more?

Jay Electronica - Dear Moleskine (prod. Just Blaze)
Jay Electronica's Act II is the Detox of the 2010s. The only difference is that an official track has been released in the past two years. Jay's Just Blaze-produced 'Dear Moleskine' has been on every fans radar since the preview dropped way the fuck back in 2009 (seems like much longer ago). Now it's official. Act II: coming

Sir Michael Rocks - Premier Politics 1.5 [Mixtape]
Back in late September, Sir Michael Rocks of The Cool Kids teams up with the team over at illroots to release his Premier Politics mixtape. During his recording sessions, Mikey created numerous tracks that ended up not making the final cut on the project. Now, the two are teaming up again to release Premier Politics 1.5 -- a compilation of 12 new tracks that Mikey put together during those sessions. With features from Chuck Inglish, Cardo, Sunny Norway, and more, this download is just as worth it as the original. Hit the jump for the tracklist and download link.

Kanye West - Mercy ft. Big Sean, Pusha T, & 2 Chainz
Just when Kanye West almost wasn't the topic of everybody in the music business' conversations, he drops a new diss track with DJ Khaled and now a lead single for the G.O.O.D. Music compilation album. The man certainly knows how to stay relevant.You gotta give it to him though because this track definitely goes.

Emilio Rojas - Who Am I? [Video]
Shouts to OnSmash for this new Emilio Rojas premiere. Dude's been on his grind recently and something tells me he's hiding some big news from us (rumors point to a Maybach Music Group signing). No word yet on where this track will end up.

DJ Khaled - Theraflu ft. Kanye West & DJ Pharris
On first listen, I was disappointed in the quality of this new Kanye track. Then, I realized that it was released for the sole reason of being a diss-track towards Kris Humphries. Now, I'm laughing. You kill me Kanye.

Buddy - Staircases ft. Kendrick Lamar (prod. The Neptunes)
They debuted this track while performing together at SXSW. Now, Pharrell's newest artist has released the CDQ version of his Kendrick Lamar collab for all to enjoy. For those of you that haven't yet heard of Buddy, this is a great place to start.

T.I. - Love This Life (prod. 1500 Or Nothin')
TIP slows it down a bit for this new single off his upcoming album, Trouble Man. After the last few street singles have done well, it was about time he delivered a more radio-ready sound. It will be interesting to see how this track does on the charts.

Curren$y - What It Look Like ft. Wale
For the first single off his upcoming The Stoned Immaculate album, Spitta reaches out to Wale for a verse and the hook. Project drops June 5th.

Outasight - Believe In Me
Our man Outasight has been enjoying the huge success his 'Tonight Is The Night' single has been seeing while he continues to play shows and make guest appearances all over the country. This new track was put together for WWE's "Once In A Lifetime" special. We're hoping to hear a second single from his upcoming Warner debut album very soon.

Nick Javas - Warning Track (prod. DJ Premier) [Video]
I was real disappointed when Nick Javas had to discontinue his NFL Rhyme Reel early last season, but he decided to get creative and put together this track in celebration of Major League Baseball's opening day today. Premo on the beat is worth the listen in itself, but there are quite a few clever lines on this track.

Kendrick Lamar - The Recipe ft. Dr. Dre (prod. Scoop DeVille)
Since Dr. Dre's shout-out on the radio over a year ago about wanting to work with Kendrick Lamar, we knew it was only a matter of time before we heard what these two could cook up ('Recipe' pun) in the studio. After all, he's Dr. Dre -- he gets what he wants! It was rumored that their work together would end up on Detox, yet it was also rumored that Detox would be out 87 years ago and that didn't happen. So, after the signing of Kendrick to Interscope Records, we knew a Dre and Kendrick collab was on the horizon. Now, here's 'The Recipe' off of Kendrick Lamar's upcoming Aftermath/Interscope debut album, Good Kid In A Mad City. Formerly known as 'Women, Weed, and Weather', this ode to their native city of Los Angeles is just the thing we were hoping for in their first collaboration.

Skyzoo - Rocket Science [Video]
Yet another set of visuals from The Great Debater. Skyzoo's lyrics are truly just too deep for the casual listener to catch. You really need to be into the music if you're trying to hear everything hes trying to say. And yet every time I go back and visit some of his old music I still catch a new line that I didn't before that makes me say wow.

Childish Gambino - Eat Your Vegetables
Mr. "D-Money" is finally back with some new music. This one rumored to be on his upcoming project contains a sample from... Donkey Kong. Not at all surprised though coming from Donald.

QuESt - Fear Not Failure [Mixtape]
In his young career, QuESt has already seen a bunch of ups and downs. Since the release of his highly anticipated Broken Headphones mixtape, his music never seemed to live up to its' expectations. In recent months though, QuESt's music has taken a bit of a different sound to a more electronic-inspired feel. Maybe that's just the way that a lot of hip-hop is moving now, but it's a great fit for QuESt.
