DAFT PUNK FEAT. JULIAN CASABLANCAS – INSTANT CRUSH

UPDATE: Random Access Memories has leaked as most of the Internet is now aware. The album that most of you have been dying to hear supposedly does not disappoint from all of the reviews I’m reading. Rumor has it the track with Panda Bear is really good.

Freddie Gibbs – Baby Face Killa (Mixtape)

Posted in Hip Hop, Mixtapes, MP3, Stream, Updates on September 25, 2012 by New Jawn

UPDATE: Gibbs dropped the Baby Face Killa mixtape today for freebies. Gangsta as expected. The track with Curren$y was just fingerin’ me. Some of this hard shit is rattlin’ my G-spot.

DOWNLOAD THE BABY FACE KILLA MIXTAPE

One of those tracks that’ll make um say uuuggghhhh!  @FreddieGibbs kills the game on this.  Great way to start a track by paying respects to East New York.  Kind of a weird beat with a variating irish fiddle horn jawn.

FireFly Music Festival announces return for 2013 – NJNews

Posted in Concerts, Music News, Philly, Updates with tags , , , , on July 24, 2012 by New Jawn

Just a couple of days after the completion of the inaugural festivities, the FireFly Music Festival has already confirmed that this wasn’t a one time thing. FireFly will return in 2013 and are completing an “early-bird” presale for next year, starting tomorrow. Obviously, there are no confirmed acts, but regardless, it’s time to start making a plan. Considering the lineup they put together for this first year, I am sure it will be another amazing selection of acts for 2013. The festival was put together successfully both in terms of bands and the space utilized. The Dover Downs is going to, once again, be the place to be next July. Great news!

UPDATE: FireFly is confirmed for June 21st – 23rd, 2013 at the same location in Dover, Delaware. Lineup and more info to follow. Early-bird, advanced tickets went on sale today for the 3-day passes.

Trey Songz – Dive In x Simply Amazing (Cloud MP3)

Posted in Hip Hop, MP3, R&B/Soul, Stream, Updates on July 6, 2012 by New Jawn

Trigga Trey will steal ya girl and he might do an inverse frog dive on her.  In other newz @frank_ocean is gay and just came out R.Kelly’s closet.  Must be kinda tough for younger brother @fucktyler to see big bro going homo.  Such is life, pick your poison, to each his own and any other dumb ass cliche for that one.  Songs for men.

UPDATE: Here’s another leak off Chapter V from Trey. “Simply Amazing” and “Dive In” will both be on the new album, releasing August 21st. Frank Ocean’s debut drops in just two weeks. I really hope his “coming out” isn’t a ploy to sell more records. I’d hate for that to be the case because dude seems like a sweetheart. No homo. Wait…

Nas feat. Amy Winehouse – Cherry Wine (Cloud, MP3)

Posted in Hip Hop, MP3, Stream, Updates with tags on July 5, 2012 by New Jawn

A told me that ?uestlove was spinning this during his “very jazzy brassy set” at Voyeur on Tuesday night, so I figured it was only a matter of minutes until it found it’s way on to the Internet. Nas partners with the recently deceased Amy Winehouse for a track off his upcoming Life Is Good album. Check out “Cherry Wine”.

NAS FEAT. AMY WINEHOUSE – CHERRY WINE

UPDATE: Here’s another leak off Life Is Good featuring Mary J. Blige called “Reach Out”. The latest album from Nas will be released on July 17th, but at this rate, the whole shit will be on the web in a few hours.

M.I.A. feat. Missy Elliott & Azealia Banks – Bad Girls Remix (MP3)

Posted in Hip Hop, MP3, Pop, Updates on June 25, 2012 by New Jawn

Ask and you shall receive. Missy Elliott lends a guest spot to M.I.A. for one of her remixes to the single “Bad Girls”. I wasn’t a huge fan of the original, but Missy adds a nice touch to this. Another remix will be out soon featuring Azealia Banks. Swerve.

M.I.A. FEAT. MISSY ELLIOTT & RYE RYE – BAD GIRLS (REMIX)

UPDATE: The second remix for “Bad Girls” came out over the weekend also. Check out the version featuring Missy Elliott and Azealia Banks. Download the track here.

Made In America announces Phase One (Update)

Posted in Concerts, Electronic, Hip Hop, Local Events, Philly, Rock & Roll, Updates with tags on May 21, 2012 by New Jawn

With tickets going on sale in less than 48 hours, the first leak of performers for the Jay-Z currated festival coming to Philadelphia were announced this morning. Made In America is taking place Labor Day weekend in Fairmount Park. The announced performers to be added to the headlining Hov are Pearl Jam, Odd Future, Skrillex, Santigold, Miike Snow, D’Angelo, and Afrojack. He’s definitely keeping it diverse, as promised. Hopefully the rest of the 28 performers are announced before tickets go on sale, but either way, this is well worth $99.

UPDATE: Additional acts for what is being called “Phase One” of the Made In America music festival came out later today. The highlight being Maybach Music Group, featuring Rick Ross, Meek Mill, and Wale. Also to perform: The Dirty Projectors, Calvin Harris, Passion Pit, Rita Ora, X, Janelle Monae, Prince Royal, The Knocks, and a DJ set from Savoy. I am expecting at least a few more big names. Kanye, Beyonce, or Coldplay wouldn’t be much of a surprise considering Jay is supposedly “hand-picking” the lineup. We’ll see. Does “Phase One” mean “Day One”? I doubt it.

My Chemical Romance replace Blink 182 at Bamboozle – NJNews

Posted in Alternative, Concerts, Updates on May 10, 2012 by New Jawn

In what is great news, Bamboozle made the announcement yesterday that Blink 182 have stepped out of their scheduled performance on Saturday next week at the Asbury Park festival due to drummer Travis Barker falling ill. The replacement is none other than New Jersey natives My Chemical Romance. Such a better live show to see next Saturday! MCR will be the co-headliner next to Foo Fighters. In other Blink news, guitarist Tom DeLonge’s other band, Angels & Airwaves, have also backed out of their Sunday performance at the Radio 104.5 birthday concert. Bad news for fans of A&A, but who listens to that junk anyway?

Mobb Deep split, beef starts – NJNews

Posted in Gone Too Soon, Hip Hop, Music News, Updates, Video on April 9, 2012 by New Jawn

I’ve been saying for a while that Mobb Deep aren’t what they once were. After several disappointing albums, lackluster solo offerings, and a prison stint, it appears Prodigy and Havoc are officially done with the partnership that Queensbridge united way back. Unexpectedly though, the first shots are coming via Havoc on Twitter, claiming that Prodigy was getting his man-fuck on while locked down. “I got niggas in the jail system to to back up that Prodigy was fucking homes in jail” was part of a tweet from Havoc, going on that he plans to expose his boy even further, if that’s possible. No response yet from P or any of his people, but I am sure this isn’t the last we’ll hear about these claims. This is probably one of the most disrespectful beefs in hip hop history, reminding me of the old Eazy E and Dr. Dre beef where he called Dre a “she-thang“.

Could this be someone hacked Havoc’s account or does he really have sources that know Prodigy was gettin’ his gay on in the pen? Regardless, it’s too bad the tracks won’t be exciting since neither of these guys are still lyrically significant anymore. GTS? I don’t think so, but I know people still respected what they brought to the game so…

UPDATE: Havoc called into a radio station today with claims that his cell phone was stolen and he did not tweet the statements about Prodigy being a homosexual while in prison. Even the hosts of the show, as well as Sway, are feeling it might be bullshit on Havoc’s part. I guess we’ll see how this plays out, but as of now, Hav informed fans that all is well between him & P. The Infamous have not split… yet.

Hot Chip – Flutes (MP3, Video)

Posted in Electronic, MP3, Updates, Video on March 16, 2012 by New Jawn

New music from Hot Chip excites me. It stinks that we’ll probably have to wait a while before an MP3 version of “Flutes” leaks, but for now, we get a studio video of the first track off In Our Heads, due out June 12th. It sounds great. The video is a bit dizzying, but I did like that one of the members of the group is sporting a J. Dilla tee. Is it just me or does frontman Alexis Taylor look a hell of a lot like Rob Dyrdek when he makes fun of his dad? We call that a chalkboard. Not a doppleganger.

UPDATE: I stand corrected. An MP3 of “Flutes” has already surfaced. Download the latest leak from Hot Chip.

Bad Veins – Dancing On TV (MP3, Video)

Posted in Concerts, Indie, MP3, Philly, Updates, Video on March 13, 2012 by New Jawn

I’m a big fan of this Cincinnati duo and their reel-to-reel tape player. Bad Veins are releasing The Mess We’ve Made on April 24th, their follow up to their frequently slept-on self-titled debut. The lead single is “Dancing On TV” and they premiered the accompanying visuals today. Hopefully an MP3 of this will get posted today also, because I don’t really care for the video. Feels like they were going for the next “Buddy Holly” with this one. Bad Veins are playing Milkboy on April 13th in Philly. Looks like I’ll get to check that place out finally.

UPDATE: Finally, Bad Veins latest single “Dancing On TV” has been released as an MP3. The song hasn’t had a chance to grow on me yet, since I haven’t watched the video again since it was premiered. Now it’ll have a chance to sink in.

Brand New at Bamboozle 2012: Truth or Rumor?

Posted in Alternative, Concerts, Music News, Updates on February 21, 2012 by New Jawn

I’m seeing a lot of sites reporting that Brand New, along with 19 other acts that no one cares about, have been added to the 2012 lineup for Bamboozle. The festival’s website has no mention of it yet, but that doesn’t mean it’s complete bullshit. No mention is being made of which day they are added, but if it’s Saturday, I am super psyched about this news. Odds are they would be added to Friday night since as of now the highlights are the fading in popularity Incubus and dubstep star Skrillex. Sunday has Bon Jovi as the closer, but not much else going on, leaving it as a possibility there also. Saturday is already pretty stacked, so not sure how this addition would benefit ticket sales for the 3-day festival set for May 18th – 20th in Asbury Park, NJ. I’ll be a salty dog if they’re playing any night other than Saturday because my one day pass is already purchased. Hopefully the full confirmation or complete denial of this news will come out tomorrow. Until then, the suspense is killing me.

UPDATE: Here is a full list of the “rumored” additions to this year’s Bamboozle. Other than Brand New, not a single one of these is exciting to me, although I am sure people will be happy about Less Than Jake and maybe Buckcherry. Some sites are saying BN will be Sunday, which would crush my hopes, but make tons of sense. Fingers still crossed for Saturday.

N.O.R.E. feat. Action Bronson – Mazel Tov (MP3)

Posted in Hip Hop, MP3, Updates on January 30, 2012 by New Jawn

I know this is a N.O.R.E. track but I’ve been waiting anxiously for the past week to get something new from Action Bronson so I could put up this ridiculous picture that he claimed will be the cover of his next mixtape on Twitter. I bet Bronson is loving being able to get on tracks with MC’s he listened to growing up. N.O.R.E. isn’t Kool G Rap, but I’m sure he was still hype to get up with the man partially responsible for “T.O.N.Y.”. The download is a radio rip from DJ Whoo Kid premiering “Mazel Tov” on Shade 45. Hopefully CD quality will follow shortly.

N.O.R.E. FEAT. ACTION BRONSON – MAZEL TOV

UPDATE: The CD quality version finally got leaked. This track will be on the N.O.R.E. upcoming Crack On Steroids mixtape. Download his track with Action Bronson here.

Anthony Green feat. Chino Moreno – Right Outside (MP3, Stream)

Posted in Indie, MP3, Stream, Updates on January 13, 2012 by New Jawn

Chino Moreno isn’t one to limit his vocal talent to just the screams and howls of the Deftones music. If you’ve been keeping up with New Jawn, you’re already loving Crosses and hearing a different side of Chino. His latest contribution to music is a guest appearance on a bonus track for the solo album from Circa Survive’s Anthony Green. Something different from Chino and equally worth checking out.

UPDATE: Finally managed to get an MP3 of “Right Outside”. I’m gonna have to check out this Anthony Green solo album. If this wasn’t worthy of making the album, how good is the rest of it? I’m baffled.

Pusha T speaks on new Re-Up Gang mixtape (Video)

Posted in Hip Hop, Interviews, MP3, Music News, Updates, Video on January 11, 2012 by New Jawn

It seems that everyone just assumed when Pusha T started releasing all of his solo material that Malice was done. The Re-Up Gang isn’t dead though. Pusha confirms that their upcoming mixtape Long Live The Caine will be a return to form for Pusha, Malice, and Ab Liva. I love that Liva is still running with these two. How sick would it be if he got signed to G.O.O.D. Music? No set release date for Caine, but I am sure freestyles over sick beats will slowly start to leak on to the web.

UPDATE: Pusha drops visuals for his freestyle “Sweet”. This track is hood so you had to expect the video to look the same. I read that this is a Drake diss, but is that confirmed? It makes sense, given the sample and title. If so, is this why Drake took a stab at Common, a label mate of Pusha? I’m still in the dark on this whole beef. Peep the video though.

Rick Ross – Rich Forever (Mixtape)

Posted in Hip Hop, Mixtapes, Updates, Video on January 6, 2012 by New Jawn

Just as promised, Rick Ross drops the Rich Forever mixtape at 3:05 today. If you haven’t checked out the list of guest spots, it’s a star-studded event folks. The hardest working man in hip hop holds us over with a free mixtape while we anticipate God Forgives, I Don’t. The MMG takeover continues thru 2012…

Rick Ross leaks tracks from Rich Forever (Cloud, MP3)

Posted in Hip Hop, MP3, Stream, Updates on January 2, 2012 by New Jawn

Rick Ross keeps pumping out remixes for current rap hits for his Rich Forever mixtape. The latest to leak are his take on “Mirror”, originally by Weezy and Bruno Mars, and the 2 Chainz & T.I. track “Spend It”. No date is set for when Rich Forever will be released, but I’ll have to assume it’s coming soon with all the tracks that have leaked already.

RICK ROSS – MIRROR (REMIX)

RICK ROSS – SPEND IT (REMIX)

UPDATE: Here’s another new Rozay track. This time he goes in over Future’s track “Magic”. Check it out.

Silversun Pickups – Seasick (Cloud, MP3)

Posted in Alternative, Full Albums, Stream, Updates on November 28, 2011 by New Jawn

Silversun Pickups have already exceeded my expectations as a band with their last album Swoon. What I expected to be an updated version of the 90′s one hit wonder bands turned into one of the more exciting bands of the late-2000′s for me. They’re back with some new music. “Seasick” is included on a 10″ vinyl release that SP put out last week. These songs will not appear on their upcoming third album. Still exciting to hear anything new from this band. Hopefully some MP3 versions of these three unreleased tracks will surface soon.

UPDATE: You can download the full EP of unreleased tracks over here. Seasick includes the title track, “Broken Bottles” and “Ribbons & Detours”. That was quick.

Rihanna feat. Jay-Z – Talk That Talk (Cloud, MP3)

Posted in Full Albums, Hip Hop, Leaks, MP3, R&B/Soul, Updates on November 13, 2011 by New Jawn

Rihanna backs off the club and dubstep beats for a track that will be more suited for rap radio. The title track off her upcoming Talk That Talk features Jay-Z with a beat that feels somewhat familiar. I’m sure this will get overplayed, just like most of their collaborations, but still a dope track. Hov definitely rappin’ like he doesn’t have a wifey and a kid on the way.

 RIHANNA FEAT. JAY-Z – TALK THAT TALK

UPDATE: Talk That Talk has officially leaked. The leak comes almost two weeks before the new album drops. You can download the new Rihanna album over here. She’s definitely got a song called “Cockiness” where she says “I love it when you eat it”. Freak jawn.

Rick Ross suffers second seizure on plane- NJNews

Posted in Hip Hop, Music News, Updates on October 16, 2011 by New Jawn

UPDATE:  Rozay suffered a second seizure in effort to make his show in Memphis.  He left the hospital after a few hours on Thursday and got right back on the plane.  Crazy that both seizures happened in the air and I’m wondering if that was a coincidence or Ross can’t handle the air pressure while thousands of feet high.  We mess with Ross heavy over here at NJ so we pulling for him to hit the treadmill and put the Wiz Khalifa down.

10/14/11

TMZ is reporting that Rick Ross suffered a seizure and was unconscious on a flight from Fort Lauderdale to Memphis this afternoon. The plane had to make an emergency landing and medical staff are trying to resuscitate Rozay. The story is just breaking, so an update will follow. They did say that he showed signs of life when being wheeled out at the aircraft. Emergency landings. So Bawse.

UPDATE: Ross has been taken to a nearby hospital and everything is okay, as confirmed by a family member and his MMG artist Wale. No drugs or alcohol were involved has been reported as well. Good news.
