After dropping the eye opening mixtape, "1999", up and coming Brooklyn rapper Joey Bada$$ follows up with his latest mixtape, "Rejex".

The project is a remarkable collection of raw-soulful unreleased material some of which dates back to when he was just 15 years old!

While there is a lack of guest features, the production selection ranges from heavyweights such as Madlib, Lord Finesse, Knxwledge, MF Doom and more.

I think its safe to say; the kids got a great ear for beats.

Dive - Sometime (Video) [DWNLD]

Dive, led by Beach Fossils' Zachary Cole Smith, is a Brooklyn-based band whose music is chill-wave, synth-wave, shoe gaze-wave, wave-wave... "Sometime", the title track from the band's debut 7", doesn't stray too far from the typical hair in your face lazy day music from the infamous burrow, but there is something more upbeat about this song. It's like listening to The Cure, but a little bit happier. Maybe.

DâM-FunK & Master Blazter Live @ Fort Greene Park, Brooklyn, New York & New D-F Tracks! [DWNLD]

Earlier this month Unda aka Undaground Tha Illest (1/3 of the Blunt Guts Nation crew) and myself had the privilege of seeing DJ Spinna, DâM-FunK & Master Blazter tear it up @ Fort Greene Park in Brooklyn, New York! DJ Spinna opened up the show with an ambient-funk set that had the entire park groovin' to the rhythm. DâM-FunK soon followed with his trademark, multitalented, backup band; Master Blazter. The band is composed of Computer Jay workin' the keys, J-1 slaughtering the drums and D-F doing everything musically possible! DâM put on one hell of a show. He was on the keyboards, doing Key-tar solo's all over the stage and jumping into the crowd all while singing every note perfectly at the same time. Check the high light reel of the show below:
