Pelly killed this.

Above is probably the summer’s biggest viral smash hit (though it obviously can’t get radio play, yet) and we finally have a video to accompany it. Cee-Lo never, if ever, disappoints with the visuals and this one is no different so be sure to listen for this catchy tune if you haven’t heard it and enjoy.

The track above was liberated via Curren$y’s Twitter moments ago and it features his hometown homeboy Marcello for a cut called “Life Is A Movie”. It’s always a pleasure to get new Jet music so check this one out and enjoy the vibe.

Sans his partner in crime, Sir Michael has been picking up a lot of momentum  through his collaborative projects with the good folks at IllRoots.  Capitalizing on the moment, they’ve decide to release the first of many visuals to accompany his work.  This particular song is produced by Mike Waxx.

Says Illroots:

We linked up with Sir Michael Rocks, or Mikey Rocks of The Cool Kids recently to shoot a video for an upcoming track off his project with producer Tye Hill and The Produktionix. Previously unreleased, Mikey is caught by the train tracks on top of his Range Rover. The show don’t stop, we don’t pose for no photo-op’s. Stay tuned as we have a few videos with Mikey in the works.

A song that no one blog should have…so we’re bringing you the song the internet has been anticipating for over a week now the Power Remix featuring Jay-Z and Swizz Beats towards the end on some adlibs and it doesn’t disappoint at all.

“Black excellence baby!” – K. West

I’ve been letting this tape bump pretty consistently lately and it’s become clear to me that the kid may be on to something. Above is the newest mixtape from recent Rostrum Records signee (Taylor Gang affilliate) Mac Miller called “K.I.D.S. (Kickin’ Incredibly Dope Shit) and the young boy from Pittsburgh does just that. On the 17 track offering he rips through melodic beats reminiscent of the old school while demonstrating a flow that shines even among some of the brighter names of today’s crowd. Do yourself a favor and checkout this tape and you’re sure to be bumping, if you’re looking for a crash course on the kid check after the jump for his recent Shade 45 and Toca Tuesdays freestyles.
