When I was at ID Fest, I thought that Chuckie's set was by far the best. I don't know if it was because I love dutch house, or because of his stage presence, but I thought he blew all other acts (including Avicii) out of the water. That being said, I just came across this phenomenal bootleg over the weekend, where Chuckie mixes a Jay-Z and Kanye's "Niggas In Paris" and Benni Benassi's "Satisfaction". The Dutch boy loves to incorporate rap into his sets, and I'm a big fan of this one.
Jordan Michael Johnson, (Jay Fresh) is a hip-hop artist coming out of the indie music scene in Dallas. His compositions are mixtures of eclectic electronic beats with hip-hop overtones and while his style has been described by some as “eclectic modern hip-hop,” his appeal is increasingly defined by a more thoughtful focus on the lyrical.
This guy is moving up. He has opened for LMFAO, Wale, The Cool Kids, Mac Miller, Yelawolf, Big Krit and Trae The Truth among others.
Formerly a sponsored skateboarder, Jay Fresh has morphed into a genre-merging musician whose work can be described as a venturous Mos Def or Common. His musical collaboration with SuperVision, has produced his most recently released track - an electronic remix of the Jay-Z/Kanye West original "Otis"...and its solid.
I would love to tell you about Louis XV, but I have no idea who he is. All I know is that he is from Vancouver, and what he is doing is absolute fire. He describes "That Shit Cray (Kreay)" as Parisian Lesbian Trunk Music, whatever the hell that means. I will tell you that this mix with Kreayshawn, Kanye and Jay-Z is probably the best hip-hop remix/mashup I have heard in a long time. I just wish it was longer. Get it, and check out his "Martians vs. Goblins" edit.
It is finally here. Watch The Throne dropped today, and we have the full album stream here at SB. There has been a lot of talk surrounding the album, and today, you will be able to see for yourself if it lives up to the hype. What is so surprising to me is the dubstep influences. "Who Gon Stop Me" features Flux Pavilion's "I Can't Stop". "Why I Love You" also samples Cassius' "I Love You So". Check it out below, and be sure to purchase the whole album on iTunes.
Jay-Z & Kanye West – Watch The Throne Tracklist
1. No Church In The Wild f. Frank Ocean (prod. Kanye West, Mike Dean & Ken Lewis)
As I was surfing the web today I came across this mashup by DJ White Lotus (I have absolutely no idea who he is). Anyways, he does a great job meshing Kanye West and Nas' "We Major" with The Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony." I'm not completely down with mashups such as this one because I feel like they really can't be that hard to make. That being said, I think this track has a great sound to it.....let us know what you think!
Sorry about the lack of posts lately, I only have a month left of college and have been prettyyyy prettyyyy prettyyyy busy. Urban Noize's "Never Chasing Pavement" flawlessly meshes Adele’s “Chasing Pavements” with Jay-Z and Kanye West’s “Never Change.” Have a listen!!!
Jay-Z featuring Kanye West and Adele – Never Chasing Pavement (Urban Noize Remix)
I really got an awesome track here for you today. These Big Z Remixes have all been really well done, and this one is no different.In this track, the man mixes up Jay-Z's "Never Change" and it's on point. GET IT.

Amtrac (Caleb Cornett) is from Kentucky. I literally can't name one producer from Kentucky besides this guy. I've featured him a few times on the site before because hes a pretty solid producer. Overtime is his latest, and its a feel-good, up-beat track that will get you dancing for sure.
More from Eminem and Dr. Dre.....this time they enlist the services of Jay-Z, 50 Cent, Cashis, and Stat Quo. Lyrics are hard and the chorus is pretty funny. These veteran rappers basically rip the current music industry apart.
Jay-Z has released his book Decoded, and in honor Hetal Bhatt created an unofficial soundtrack putting together all of the mentioned song in the book. This basically sums up J's music career in one playlist.
