Alcohol – Timeflies
Timeflies Tuesday is arguably the best day of the week. With Timeflies on tour, it sparks some seriously awesome inspiration for the famous freestyles that Rez and Cal put together. Alcohol is quickly climbing its way to the top 3 Timeflies Tuesdays in my book. An upbeat remix to the Jamie Foxx anthem has a club-like feel, and Cal’s bars are witty and creative as per usual. Enjoy!
The Spotlight – Logic + Video
Nobody does it better than Logic. Well, in my opinion at least…
For this new video, Young Sinatra hops on the timeless sample D.A.N.C.E. by Justice and completely tears it apart with that classic Logic flow! Logic shows a little more of his upbeat style on this track, and makes it a true challenge for all you fans to not want to just dance! This kid has the lyrics, the grind and everything you need to make it in the game, with that being said there is not a single mixtape that is more highly anticipated, for me, this year.
Now the real question is, who does the sample better, Logic or other fellow DMV emcee, Wale? Let us know in the comments!
On a side note, the official mp3 will be released when the video hits 100,000 views so be sure to share it and show your friends so that we can bump this on our iPods!

Fall Back – YONAS Video
We first featured Fall Back in March of 2011, and it was met with a great response. Just under a year later, YONAS drops off the official video: an elegant, intriguing, and beautifully filmed piece of art that really makes the music shine. Both the production on the song and video are amazing and worth a view. No download on this one, so support YONAS on iTunes and grab The Proven Theory!

Whitney – Norwegian Recycling + Video
Norwegian Recycling dropped his latest mashup last night, another moving tribute to the late Whitney Houston. Whitney does a beautiful job of mixing several Whitney vocal samples on top of pop hits from Florence and the Machine, Bruno Mars, and the instrumental from Adele’s Set Fire to the Rain. I’ve always appreciated Norwegian Recycling’s touch in the mashup game – he really does a great job staying away from the trends and producing more unique tracks. This one is no different – watch the official mashup video below and download for free!
Sample List:
Adele – Fire To The Rain
Whitney Houston – How Will I Know
Whitney Houston – I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)
Whitney Houston – So Emotional
Florence And The Machine – You Got The Love
Bruno Mars – Grenade

Became – Atmosphere Video
Here’s a new video project from Atmosphere, a project collaboration with MSB that takes a dark, fable-like take on Became, a captivating and driving piece off their most recent album, The Family Sign. I love the production, and of course, it’s Atmosphere – one of my favorite hip hop duos of all time. Peep the video below!

Room For Happiness ft. Skylar Grey – Kaskade Video
If you’re a fan of Kaskade, and were smart enough to grab Fire & Ice last October, you’re in for a treat with a new video. Room For Happiness, featuring Skylar Grey, was by far one of my favorite tracks on the album, and I’m so happy to finally get some visuals. My only complaint is the release through MTV, who for whatever reason, won’t allow full-screen viewing on third party sites. So watch on MTV to fullscreen, otherwise, enjoy below!

I Will Always Love You – Timeflies
Yet another beautiful drop from the boys of Timeflies – I won’t call it a Timeflies Tuesday because it was released early Wednesday morning (I can’t blame them though, they’ve been busy touring). This week, we get a tasteful memorial to Whitney Houston as Rez whips up a beautiful Whitney sample, and Cal drops an amazing freestyle, as always. This is a very classy, tasteful way to pay homage to the late great and wish a happy Valentine’s day to their fans. Take a peek below.

Valentine (Cut Me Loose) – Radical Something
Nothing says “Happy Valentine’s Day” like a song about breaking up and a bunch of girls crying am I right?! Nonetheless, whatever your status is on February 14th, everyone can fall in love with this new Radical Something track. Especially with the “Three Amigos” horse trotting at the end, it only makes it better. This new song is going to be featured on their upcoming EP No Sweat, and by what I’m seeing it’s going to be amazing. No Sweat is out February 26th, so be on the lookout!!
PS. As if this wasn’t enough of a treat already… here’s the acoustic video!
