Ah yes, Tinie Tempah. The UK grime MC turned global superstar returns with his first solo release since his breakthrough Discovery LP, with (and just an indication of how far his star has risen) the Diplo-produced and 2 Chainz-featuring “Trampoline”. We would expect the gritty club-ready “Trampoline” to do nothing short of eviscerating charts from the UK and beyond all summer.

Yeah, we can get into this. Leather Corduroys is the new collaborative project of Save Money collective rappers and b3 faves Joey Purp and Kami De Chukwu. First track “Prophet” glides along on a vibed down sax-led beat that does well in feel and tempo to showcase the rhyming skills of emcees.

Joey Bad doesn’t miss. ’95 Til Infinity”, the second release from J.B.’s upcoming Summer Knights LP, connects the Brooklyn-based rapper and a stack of fly a f rhymes with a fresh laid-back Lee Bannon instrumental. It’s a hit.

Spitta gets gritty or at least as gritty as an amorphous flume of smoke and panache can get. Not specifically attached to a project (yet), the reverb-splashed “Killer$” might be stronger than anything $$$ released on his latest New Jet City mixtape a few months ago. Also, there’s Trinidad Jame$.

We got those Bronsilini Marty Jannetty bars. (And yes, the former early 90’s WWF Intercontinental Champ is repeatedly ref’d in the song). “The Rockers” is previewed from Bronson and Harry Fraud’s upcoming Saaab Stories collaborative EP which is out Tuesday. Some dude called Khalifa is one this track too, remember him?

MMG’s big fat burger man Rozay drops off a soft subtle cooler with new track the Jadakiss-featuring “Oil Money Gang”. With each successive LP, Ross seems to up the tax bracket on his instrumental, “Oil Money Gang” is luxurious rich dude rap that very few in the hip hop world can convincingly pull off, including the big fat burger man.

Surprise, surprise. Angel Haze drops new track “No Bueno” and almost unbelievably it absolutely smangs. Rapid fire body shot after rapid fire body shot over a hyper-dynamic sweeping instrumental, “No Bueno” will be included on Ms. Haze’s forthcoming major label debut, Dirty Gold.
