This is a hair-raiser right here. I love the build up on this remix.

Listen after the break.

Hit-Boy sits down with Noisey and reveals he will be releasing his debut single titled “Jay-Z Interview,” dropping on his birthday (May 21st). He also talks about watching his dreams manifesting before him, his start in the industry, working with his heroes, and more.

The first in a two part series, Allhiphop and JumpOFF TV follow B.o.B  the day before his album release. In the mini-film, B.o.B visits “The View,” BET’s 106 & Park, Associated Press, Power 105.1 with DJ Clue and Hot 97′s Funkmaster Flex.

Mickey Factz channels his character Mickey MauSe in his new visuals for “Taking Pictures Of Girls Naked.” Disclaimer, this video is NSFW!

Mickey Factz is in character as Mickey MauSe and his day turns into an adventure when he gets a surprise visitor… Not once… But TWICE. The artist gets his own art lesson when the day turns playful. The Polaroids tell the story.

This track is from DJ Victoriouz, DJ Twin, DJ Pharris and Moe Bey’s The New Chicago Vol. 1 mixtape. It sounds like another variation “I Don’t Like” if you ask me.

Tabi Bonny and Mos Def Yasin Bey hop on this Ski Beatz produced cut. The track is from tabi’s The ENdless Summer, to be released May 17th.

Working with the likes of Hodgy Beats, Sir Michael ROcks, Boldy James and a slew of others, this video takes us into the mind of this young musician as he shares his influences and how his passion for music flourished.

Jay-Z sits down with CNN to speak on President Obama’s same-sex marriage opposition.

“What they do in their homes is their business, they can chose to love whoever you love. It’s no different than discrimination against blacks..it’s discrimination plain and simple.”

Here are some new visuals as part of Mountain Dew’s DEWeezy project. Don’t you feel so motivated after watching?

London producer Two Inch Punch released his new single “Paint It Red” from his upcoming EP Saturn: The Slow Jams. This cut is richy layered with a medley of electronic soul influences, complimented by the vocals of Nashville’s Mikky Ekko. I love it!

This came out a few weeks ago, but I heard this track on Def Pen podcast I posted and really liked it. FKi is a duo out of Atlanta, with a promising future ahead if they keep it up with tracks like this. The song takes on a dubstep influence, which I haven’t really seen done in rap. Directed by 3 Little Digs.

London native Cleo Sol drops her new single “Never The Right TIme.” I like that it’s not as emo-driven sonically with the production etc. as much of the new crooners. Cleo has a potential to really carve out a new lane for herself.
