Fat Joe ft. Wiz Khalifa & Teyana Taylor - Ballin’
“Dribble, dribble shoot—swish!” That’s the sound of Fat Joe and his crew Ballin’. Fresh off celebrating the opulence of his lifestyle on February’s Ceilings to the Sky, the Bronx vet continues to... Read More
Devine Carama - Light Switch Flow
I’m not gonna name names (after all, there’d be so many), but today’s rap game is chock full of emcees eager to appeal to the lowest common denominator, regardless of whether they’re insulting... Read More
The Weeknd - Kiss Land
In light of all The Weeknd‘s music has taught us about his behavior towards sex partners, the title of his Universal Republic debut album seems uncharacteristically tender. After a listen to the freshly-released lead... Read More
Chance Fischer - The Intent
On Chance Fischer‘s last feature, mid-April’s Blow the Sky Up, he revealed just how big of an impact he expects to make with this hip-hop sh*t. Today, the Richmond, Virginia representative returns to our pages... Read More
Mark Morrison ft. Crooked I - IAmWhatIAm (Remix)
Though 2010 saw Mark Morrison drop by the Booth with the dancehall-flavored Father Forgive Them, 2012’s non-featured IAmWhatIAm marked the English R&B vet’s first proper single since ‘06’s Innocent... Read More
Dub-O - Moves To Make
Usually the moves I have to make include getting groceries and picking up dry cleaning, sometimes even major moves like getting an oil change. But rapping along a beach while the waves crash in? Those are moves I definitely... Read More
D-WHY - FaZe Clan
You know you listen to too much hip-hop when it surprises you to see a styrofoam cup filled with coffee rather than lean. With that said, if there’s one rapper who would release a song about his java addiction, D-WHY is... Read More
Brail - Gritts N Gravy
Topeka, Kansas recording artist Brail may hail from (just) north of the Missouri Compromise Line, but he clearly has a soft spot for Southern cuisine. On his latest single, making its world premiere right here in the Booth,... Read More
Gallant - Please? (Vignette)
An unsigned crooner hailing from the Big Apple, Gallant makes his grand entrance into The DJBooth with Please? (Vignette), the first original song release off his forthcoming debut EP. (It was preceded by a cover of Read More
Syleena Johnson x Musiq Soulchild - Feel the Fire
Is it me, or is it getting a little hot in here? No, this isn’t a transparent ploy to get you to “take off all your clothes.” (Though if you feel like it, by all means, be my guest.) It’s just that, after a... Read More
Snow Tha Product - Cali Luv
With a name like Snow Tha Product, you might think she hails from Alaska or Colorado, but as her new single suggests she is all about the West Coast. And as you might imagine with a song entitled, Cali Luv, Tupac’s... Read More
The Cranberry Show ft. Mod Sun - Leather Seats
Back in April, The Cranberry Show kicked off promotion for their next street album with Gravity. Despite scoring points for creativity, the Gorillaz-inspired video single failed to elicit much excitement among readers in the... Read More
Ciara ft. Future & B.o.B. - Body Party (Remix)
I’m not one hundred percent sure what happens at a Body Party (though I do have some idea), but it must be similar to Brick from Anchorman‘s “pants party.” It’s only fitting that Ciara has brought... Read More
Alicia Keys - Tears Always Win
The last video single off Alicia Keys’ fifth full-length found her kindling a metaphorical flame with the help of neo-soul veteran Maxwell. But passion, however scorching it may be at first, has an unfortunately... Read More
TGT - Sex Never Felt Better
Being serenaded by Tank, Ginuwine and Tyrese all at once sounds like a scenario out of a female R&B fan’s dreams, but there’s no need to pinch yourself—I assure you, this is real. Formed way back in 2007 but... Read More
Jackson Breit - Sunny Side
When I get eggs, the only way I get them is scrambled. In fact I don’t think I have ever had them any other way. With that said, Jackson Breit has me thinking Sunny Side up might be the way to go, because his latest effort... Read More
After The Smoke ft. Voila Snow - Come & Leave
What have After the Smoke been up to since dropping off Typical Weekend back in October? Oh nothing much—just kicking it, making music, inking a record deal. Say what? That’s right: the Tallahassee twosome are now... Read More
