A.J. Crew - The Network (Feat Kris Bills)
This track may seem familiar because the original has been used in Fast & The Furious as well as a few Scion commercials. Nightmares & Daydreams is coming! It'll be out September 1st for those who are out of the loop. On another note, If you want to see a Nightmares & Daydreams shirt made (seriously.. who wouldn't? look at that cover art.) contact Dope Couture & Matt Fields by tweeting "We need Nightmares & Daydream shirts! @dopecouture @mattfromdope @AjCrew". Hopefully we can get it done, because A.J. likes the idea! Nightmares & Daydreams September 1st!

Song of the Day: Jabee - Platinum Hooks
Today's song of the day goes to Jabee's song Platinum Hooks. Everytime I hear this song it puts me in a different zone (if that makes sense), nevermind the fact that the beat is just incredible. The song is off his album Blood Is The New Black, which you can cop here.
"...I'm just trying to rule my pen..."

Damu The Fudgemunk Interview
An interview of Damu The Fudgemunk I came across. I am a big fan of Damu's music and thought the interview was an interesting read."I’m a regular guy. If you think I’m in studios or making beats at home all day, hanging out with other hip hop celebs, that is not the case. Most of my week is spent at a normal job just like millions of others worldwide. Unfortunately music isn’t the first thing I do when I get up, I have to make time for it. Still have regular things like laundry, paying taxes and public transportation to deal with. I really love making music and I hope it’s the impression I’ve made soRead the rest of the interview HERE

The Are - Iran
New instrumental tape by The Are, and this one is dedicated to those suffering in Iran:“I was very moved by the people of Iran and their protest for democracy. This album is dedicated to them and their fight for a better future. I used all Iranian music in the making of this album. Hope you enjoy and spread it around.”
DOWNLOAD HEREA.J. Crew - Something About Us
This song is crazy. Its got a little 80s vibe to it, with some draft punk on the side. This project is shaping up to be something epic. Nightmares & Daydreams is coming September 1st. Presented by ThriftStoreENT., Soundscape Studios and RubyHornet.
Blakface - The Perfect Girl
Most haven't heard of Blakface before, but I'd highly recommend that you keep tabs on them. They are a group of very talented MCs based out of L.A. Their mission is to further the progression of our society through their music and break down any boundaries that divide people today. The Perfect Girl is the first single stemming from their next project Blaktastic Vol. 1, which focuses on personal experiences while still keeping a 90's flavor to it.

Probz - Happiness Is Music EP
Props to Twitter, yet again! I came across this nice instrumental EP by the producer Probz. Here is what he said about the EP:
The EP represents the evolution of the producer who has been making beats since the tender age of 14. The concept of Happiness Is Music is simple the audience just needs to listen to music, enjoy the music, and spread the word = Happiness! As the producer extraordinaire described the EP himself…"it’s just a few beats that make me happy every time I listen to them…"
Tracklist:
1. Try
2. Prison

What are your thoughts on the video? Im kinda in different to it.
Rickie Jacobs – Chapter 1
Rickie Jacobs is an artist associated with MOP (Music On Play). Honestly there's not a lot I can say about him. We haven't heard much, so there's nothing to compare this to, but its pretty solid. Chris, a co-owner of MOP had this to say.
My mind has been coming up with some crazy ideas lately.. Me and Rickie got together and decided to hit you with something unstoppable…Off the upcoming Music On Play x Rickie Jacobs Mixtape Off The Top
A&E (Masta Ace and EDO.G) – Little Young

The Dropouts (El Prez & DNEZ) - Recession Proof (Prod. by Jansport J)
Looks likes there is another leak via El Prez. The concept is real basic, but the style is fun. As I've said before, they remind me of the Cool Kids sometimes, which in all cases is a good thing. Big shouts to The Dropouts for leaking the song and to Jansport for not being afraid to make a fun hip hop song.
El Prez - Bright Lights, Big City (Jansport J Remix)
If you are unaware of the musical stylings of Jansport J, I can only tell you one thing. Get Familiar! The man is going places for sure.

Novel - Grand Finale
This is why Novel will forever be one of the artists i have the utmost respect for. He puts his all into every record, every mixtape, every EP, and everything he is apart of. here is what he had to say about this track:"Here is a Bonus track off the Album “The Audiobiography…” Its about my child hood and growing up. That’s actually my mother in the intro. Strong woman. Was on her own alot. Raised 6 of us no father figure sometimes we stayed in shelters, homeless. Anyway just listen to the record. I think you’ll enjoy it. Stay blessed."Download/Stream Here
