After bringing us the audio a couple of weeks ago, Jordan Stephens (Rizzle of Rizzle Kicks) last night brought us a very cool animated/lyric video for his freestyle over the lead single from NaS' forthcoming album. NaS himself gave this the green light, and ever since hearing it a few months back, I've been a massive fan. Killed it.

Put together by Booty Tune, here is a refreshing promotional video for the new album from Traxman, which is entitled 'Da Mind Of Traxman'. Took me about half an hour to work out what was going on, but this is genuinely one of the best things ever uploaded to YouTube - the music is amazing, and the dancing is classic in every sense of the word. Check out the video and the album snippets after the jump - so sick.

Uploaded to SoundCloud yesterday, here is a brand new Jazz-infused Hip-Hop track from Raashan Ahmad. Love the sample, love the production in general and Raashan's rhymes are on point as ever - one of the most under-rated MCs out there.
