Joey Bada$$ Feat. CJ Fly - "Hardknock" and Mixtape Download

Really feeling this guy Joey Bada$$ after a friend shared the mixtape with me. If you like 90's hip hop you'll be on this. Get the whole mixtape here. I am telling you, you won't be sorry. Better than most of what is out there right now in my opinion. Watch "Hardknock" below.

Sigur Rós - "Fjögur píanó" Video NSFW

The newest Sigur Ros album sounds awesome. I know because it helped put me to sleep on my train ride back from Philly last night. The last Sigur Ros did not do that. But every other one had. And it's good to have that sound back. Enjoy "Fjögur píanó" starring Shia Labeouf below.

Azealia Banks - "Liquorice" Video

It's easy to say she's a Nicki Minaj copy cat but this and "212" are awesome tunes. I will state here that I am an Azealia Banks fan thus far.

Lucas Santtana – "O Deus Que Devasta Mas Também Cura"

Free download of the new Lucas Santtana LP called O Deus Que Devasta Mas Também Cura. I don't dig it as much as is last, at least after first listen, but it's still solid.
