Great Dane - "Drop Top"

Doesn't matter if it's nighttime and there's snow falling from the sky right now, the latest from Great Dane will have you rolling around in a sleeveless shirt, shades on your face, with the windows down and the music blasting from the speakers. Point blank, it'd be an understatement to say "Drop Top" is a vibe - this one will have you feeling yourself, drippin' with the sauce something like Ari on "7 Rings".

The genre-defying Great Dane may have released an enigmatic collection of music last year in the form of Gamma Ray, but he's knocking down the door that is 2019 by doing what he does best - showcasing just how ever-evolving and eclectic his style truly is. Each release is a new page in the diary of Great Dane, finding a unique way of revealing bits and pieces of the multifarious headspace existing within the LA-based artist.

"Drop Top" will leave you wanting to squad up and commit random acts of delinquency, before making it all right by committing even more random acts of kindness. It's an appropriately titled sonic ride - a wave of emotions and the perfect bop to start your week off right. Good luck not feeling overwhelmed with self-confidence after bumping this one a few times.

While in Paris - which appears to be one of his homes away from home at this point - Aaron Cohen bumped into Eklips outside a train station. With cameras rolling, the renowned beatboxer proceeded to drop Dipset's " Oh Boy " instrumental as Cohen does what he does best, lacing the France-based musician's rendition of the track with characteristically self-confident quotables. Check out the off the cuff collaboration below and be on the lookout for Cohen's upcoming RED NEW YORK project.

Raz Simone - "Clout" [prod. Anthony Danza] (Video)

Fresh off the heels of another trip around the sun, Raz Simone comes through with his first visuals of 2018. In typical Raz fashion, the Black Umbrella founder holds nothing back on "Clout", addressing a myriad of subject matter with a confidently calm yet simultaneously aggressive delivery. Simone has always been one of my favorite artists to cover, thanks in large part to the layered presentation of his content. With "Clout", an essay could be composed on both the track itself and the accompanying video - while both seem almost overly simple upon first glance/listen, the song and video cover a lot of ground over the course of five and a half minutes. The visuals are split between two backdrops - Raz being "studied" in a research facility and Raz rapping in the street. The vibe of the production on "Clout" syncs up perfectly with the dreary, simple visual of Simone in the rainy streets...appropriately carrying a black umbrella. It's

Rudy - No Time

God willing, each and every person birthed into this world will grow up. Some of us may reach an old age, some of us may be called home earlier than others - but, in some form or fashion, we all will grow older. It's a funny thing, the way our society perceives age. In some cultures, the elders are held to the highest esteem - for they are the ones with the knowledge and experience to hold true wisdom. While many in our society praise youth and the physical beauty associated with being young, it is only through the experience of living life that one learns about the world, and in turn, has the capability to learn about their own being. And still, we tend to look down upon those who have been blessed to experience a long, full life. Perhaps it's because so many "old" people seem to live a life of regret, looking back on their youth with a mind full of "what ifs" and "should haves". While young individuals are rushing to reach maturity,
