Lushlife – She’s a Buddhist, I’m a Cubist (Remix) (Feat. Angel Deradoorian, Cities Aviv, G-Side, Big Baby Gandhi, Deniro Farrar, Kenny Dennis)

Philly rapper Lushlife grabs a crew of his friends for this 8 PM twilight summer night smooth as glass rework of “She’s a Buddhist, I’m a Cubist”. I was once in love with a Buddhist, but you’d never call me a Cubist.

French Montana – Pop That (Feat. Rick Ross, Drake & Lil’ Wayne)

French comes through with that big summer posse cut that hip hop radio has being missing. Leave it to essentially the same cast, Rozay, Drake & Wayne to deliver two summers running. Props to Tunechi on the Klitschko reference.

The-Dream – Dope Bitch (Feat. Pusha T)

So we’re not the biggest Dream fans out there (although a b3sci’er can put on for a little “Shawty is a 10” when the inspiration strikes) but “Dope Bitch” ticks enough dope b3sci track boxes to get a little run here. You’ve probably heard this one before, but for what it is T. Nash executes and Push could rap on a beat this fine in a coma. Get it.

Lil Wayne – My Homies Still (Ft. Big Sean)

Big Sean takes the lead on the latest to surface from Carter’s forthcoming I Am Not A Human Being 2 album. Or is that tonally the other way around? Does it matter this track is hot.

Azealia Banks – 1991

We’re not totally sure how we feel about this new Azealia Banks EP. Of the EP’s three new tracks, the 90’s house-styled title track is the definite standout. OK.
