Without letting the audio marinate, ASAP Ferg utilizes the buzz surrounding his remix to “Work” and drops the video. It follows that industry standard of getting different solo scenes with each rapper, but visually works well. It also helps when the actual song is worth listening to. Trap Lord coming soon. Previously: ASAP Ferg Ft. French Montana, [...]

“Work” was the breakout single from ASAP Ferg last summer, so the remix needed to be treated delicately. While it’s typical to toss in French Montana, Ferg gets some cool points for the inclusions of Schoolboy Q, Trinidad James and ASAP Rocky. As expected, Ferg had the hardest verse with Groovy Q coming in at [...]

Last night, Schoolboy Q decided to debut a new song off his debut album, Oxymoron, at The Observatory in Santa Ana, CA. While a title has not been confirmed, from the sound of it looks to be “Gangster.” It sounds pretty tough too. The production is a instant stand out. Hopefully this might be the [...]

The XXL Freshmen ’13 activities are finally coming to an end, but not before their mixtape, arguably the most memorable portion of the campaign. DJ Drama hosts it as a special Gangsta Grillz edition. All 10 freshmen deliver exclusive material for a project that is worth bumping. Who doesn’t want something new out of Action [...]

The second XXL cypher has Kirko Bangz, Trinidad James and Schoolboy Q over a V12 The Hitman production. This one won’t blow you away like the first cypher did (or maybe it didn’t, but it was good), but it does give some more hope to Kirko and Trinidad as they spit some good lyrics. Schoolboy [...]

Odd Future’s Mike G is going to be dropping White Ice on April 6. He’ll be doing plenty of chopping and screwing to all sorts of records. Seeing how nobody has touched on Schoolboy Q’s buzz single, “Yay Yay,” he drops that as the mixtape’s first single. Stream it below. Follow @SermonsDomain

For SXSW 2013, the TDE crew rented out a big compound to house themselves. Even though MTV doesn’t do Cribs anymore, Schoolboy Q still decided to give us a tour of the building and meet his “sons” in that fashion. It’s just a big reminder that most of us still need to grind. Shot by [...]

Let the discussions begin. XXL has released the cover for their annual Freshmen class. This year is bound to spark up just as much debating as every other issue. So, here’s my thoughts: The wildcard choice is obviously Logic, a Maryland born rapper who falls in the same category of Macklemore’s success at his time [...]

The success of Kendrick Lamar in 2012 is what Schoolboy Q aims to get in 2013 with his debut album, Oxymoron. He recently told MTV that Pharrell, K. Dot, ASAP Rocky and Danny Brown are among some of the guests on it. Serving as his first single (or at least it’ll more than likely be [...]

Hit-Boy, Kent Money, Audio Push and B Mac The Queen, who make up part of the Hs87 crew, have been tempting the internet with this monstrous line-up for “Cypher.” While the features may be great, it suffers by restriction. The song is a total of four minutes and 48 seconds, leaving the artists to a [...]
