Kidda - Together Again (Detboi Remix) x Hangin Around (Destruction Remix)

Dublin-born & Cheap Thrills signed Detboi comes through a wobbly bass-heavy remix of the latest single from Kidda's forthcoming sophmore album, Hotel Radio. The track showcases some heartfelt lyric writing from Kidda, and this remix takes the uplifting music and infectious vocals from Lee Baker to a whole new level. Below you will also find a massive remix of the B-Side, 'Hangin Around', which comes courtesy of UK Hip-Hop legend Descruction. Out February 27th, love both.

J. Cole - Can't Get Enough (w/ The Roots) (Live on Jimmy Fallon)

Backed by The Roots, J. Cole performs one of my favourite tracks and what should have been the lead single from his debut album, live on the Jimmy Fallon show. A dope performance, a very cool dude.

Drake - Take Care (DJ Cable Edit)

The ever impressive DJ Cable comes through with a spinna friendly edit of Drake's latest single, Take Care, which features Rihanna and samples Gil-Scott Heron/Jamie XX.

"As you know, the ladies love that “Take Care” joint, but in all honesty it’s a bit too mellow; especially when it comes to dropping it in the middle of a set.

I’ve basically added some 808s and the Think break, sped up the tempo a little bit, and given the arrangement a quick shuffle. The tune ends on a loop of the Gil Scott-Heron sample.

The end result is a slightly beefed up version, with a DJ friendly intro."

Cypress Hill & Rusko - Roll It, Light It

After the news surfaced a few days ago that Mad Decent signee Rusko was teaming up with legendary West Coast group Cypress Hill, the first piece from their 5-track EP, which will be out in April, has now hit the web. Thought this collaboration could have been a bit all over the place, but it works, well.
