Phil Ade - De La Soul

Here's the latest from the DC rapper Phil Ade. I love this cat, he's a part of Raheem Devaughn’s 368 Music group and he's never faulted on one track. This week's #PhilAdeFriday is him laying some bars over one of my favorite De La Soul songs "Breakadawn". Enjoy!

Freddie Gibbs - Way 2 Fast

Here's a new joint from the homie Freddie Gibbs. He made this joint in honor of Mother's Day.

"The song is basically a true story. I saw a lot of young females go down that path that leads to addiction, abuse and death. I always made sure that I lead my baby sister in the right direction due to the things I’ve seen in the streets. As black men we need to be more accountable for our women."

Enjoy.

SL Jones Ft.. Trae – Swervin

Be sure to follow @SLJONESY on twitter.
I have a lot of respect for Houston culture. Screw music—it’s more than an art form, it’s a lifestyle. From the slang they use, to the cars they drive, to the slowed down sound, Houston has a lot of pride, and all that has influenced not just hip-hop but popular music as a whole. Really, I just wanted to make a record to show my appreciation for what Texas, and Houston specifically, has contributed to the game. I got the beat from the homies Smiff & Cash of Heatwave Productions, and I had this idea for a sampled hook—half melody and half screwed up. So I had Smiff chop a sample of the homie Scar singing for the first part of the hook and had him chop the Screwed Up Click sample, which was already screwed, for the second half. I already knew Trae was gonna kill it, but on top of that he’s an original SUC member, so it was really the perfect fit. It was just cool to make a song dedicated to the Cutlass. I learned how to drive in a baby blue old school Oldsmobile Cutlass. Cars like that never lose their value in the hood. They just get better with time. – SL Jones
