  • Dave Raps ‘In the Morning’ [VIDEO]

    Dave Raps ‘In the Morning’ [VIDEO]

    A few weeks ago we did a post covering up and coming FLA-rapper Dave Raps and his “Too Unknown” mixtape. For the New Year, in show of all the support he’s been getting, Dave’s camp just sent over a video for “In the Morning” – his take on the smash J. Cole and Drake collabo…

  • D1 “Cry” (Produced by Kno)

    D1 “Cry” (Produced by Kno)

    2010’s almost over. As we continue on, here’s some more real soulful music from Ohio’s own D1. If you don’t remember, 2 weeks ago we posted his debut single “Soul Blue” and it recieved some great reviews from all around the net. Following up to such a smash hit would take a lot of talent…

  • Malkovich “The Gift”

    Malkovich “The Gift”

    Merry Christmas, mother fuckers from everybody at LC. Here’s a hot track that wound up in my inbox this morning. Consider it quite a nice Christmas gift from your boy Malkovich, fresh from the booth to us. And like always, I’m here to spread the word with the world. To date, Malkovich has toured all…

  • Murs & 9th Wonder “I Used to Love Her (Again)”

    Hip hop… I used to love you. Murs remakes Common’s 1994 classic with a little bit of help from 9th Wonder. Reminds me of a time when hip-hop was this super sexy bitch, not the jump that she is nowadays. Nostalgic of a time when she was exclusive with a limited number of people, and…

  • The Console Wars 5 [PREVIEW]

    The Console Wars 5 [PREVIEW]

    Ok, so if you’re not familiar by now, the Console Wars series is one of my favorite beat tapes ever. What separates it from the other instrumental mixtapes out there is that it not only features a variety of up and coming producers – but they’re flipping samples from video games! Console Wars 5 will…

  • The Hammer Boys “The Deans List” [MIXTAPE]

    The Hammer Boys “The Deans List” [MIXTAPE]

    We posted their video earlier in the week promoting this mixtapes release and the time has finally come. For what it’s worth (FREE) you have nothing to lose downloading this tape. Fresh, original lyricism matched with the main elements of hip hop (good beats, fresh kicks and even better ganja) blended in a bowl like…

  • Dave Raps “Too Unknown” presented by Ashley Outrageous

    Dave Raps “Too Unknown” presented by Ashley Outrageous

    Everybody knows the saying ‘don’t sleep on this dude right here.’ And sadly enough we’ve been sleeping. Luckily, this artists management got in touch with us to spread the word late last night, and earlier this morning I was inclined to check out this cats tape. His name – Dave Raps. Fresh outta the Florida…

  • Bamboo Bros – Stay High [VIDEO]

    More dope new ish from the Bamboo Bros (Kurious Jorge & Dave Dar). I’m really feeling everything about this video especially the old-school new-school sample. You can’t forget the straight positive vibe you get from the lyrics. It’s real. Not to mention, no doubt, they’re spitting on the rooftop and it doesn’t get more hip-hop…

  • D1 “Soul Blue” [DEBUT SINGLE]

    D1 “Soul Blue” [DEBUT SINGLE]

    Distinct One a.k.a. D1 is an emcee/producer from Columbus, Ohio and part of the Philly-based crew Forever Fam. Over the past few years, he has released songs, remixes and freestyles through the internet, college radio, and mixtapes. 2011 is the year where all of the energy goes into more official releases. ‘Soul Blue’ is D1’s…

  • The Hammer Boys “The Come Up”

    Starting as good friends just trying to make good music, GD and Jay2da took their solo styles – which meshed so well on their collaborations – and formed The Hammer Boys. Check this shit out, a video they did with the help of Pocket Change Pictures! Definitely hope to hear some more from these guys…

  • The Console Wars 4.5

    The Console Wars 4.5

    Happy Hump Day, family! Hope all is well in the world. Here’s another chapter in Ferno’s ”Console Wars” video game beat tape series. The entire project is produced by AJ. The name should sound familiar since his production can be heard on the previous Console Wars tapes and has worked as a producer for OnCue,…

  • OnCue “Leftovers”

    OnCue “Leftovers”

    It’s the Monday after Thanksgiving, and you know what that means. It’s time for OnCue’s newest release “Leftovers” presented by DjBooth.net & Academy Printwear. Back from the fridge, OnCue rounded up throwaway tracks from his last mixtape “Cuey Sings the Blues” and packaged them up along with some fresh releases. He’s been doing leaks here…

  • Federal Seizure of OnSmash, RGF [Editorial]

    Federal Seizure of OnSmash, RGF [Editorial]

    Somewhere in the land of “they tell us we’re free until we reach the cage walls…” On November 26th the Dept. of Homeland Security closed down two of the most prominent hip-hop websites, OnSmash.com and RapGodfathers.com. Both of these sites gained popularity in the past 6 years due to their constant updates of new material from popular…

  • Kanye West at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

    Kanye West at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

    First, I wanna wish everybody a Happy Thanksgiving on behalf of the gang at Leftover Cake!! Kanye West hopped on board the Daily News’ ‘Big Apple’ float during the 84th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and delivered a chilling (literally), yet seemingly lip-syncing rendition of “Lost in the World” off his newly released album, “My…

  • Ambiguous [VIDEO]

    “Ambiguous” Music Video from KarmaloopTV on Vimeo. Here’s the latest video from Big Sean, Mike Posner & Clinton Sparks called ‘Ambiguous.’ We all know some chick that falls into that niche… Anyways, this dropped last week everywhere else, but over here it’s better late than never, right motherfuckers? I mean, there’s like a million other…

Got any book recommendations?
