Big K.R.I.T.: "My Interpretation"

Sampler

Our homie Andrew from Potholes In My Blog and Prefix Mag just shot off two tracks for the forthcoming Summer Sampler (info below).  The compilation is 24 exclusive tracks from buzzing artists such as Theo Martin, Co$$, Stalley, Smoke Dza, and more.  The full project drops August 24th, and today they kick off the promo with this track from RH favorite, Big K.R.I.T.  "My Interpretation" shows K.R.I.T. get all philosophical and s**t, as the Mississippian questions the theory of evolution, as well as the color of Jesus.  Heavy stuff over slick production... this joint is dope.  Find the track and more info on the project as a whole below.  They also released Sonnymoon's "Blast Off", which you can find below as well.

XLarge Spring/Summer 2011 Fitteds

XLarge

I got put on to XLarge in the early/mid 90's through various Beastie Boys songs/videos.  Mike D was a strong carrier of the brand, repping the clothes in music videos, photo shoots, magazine spreads, and dropping references in Beastie Boys songs.  Mike D was also amongst the founders of the brand.  Yesterday Hypebeast posted a look at XLarge's forthcoming spring/summer 2011 headwear pieces, and they look dope.  See more pics below.

J the S: "Another Round" ft. B.o.B. (J. Cardim Remix)

J. Cardim's remix is a banger. I had heard the original song a while back (like 2008 back) and I liked it but J. Cardim's remix gives the song a much edgier feel with all new instrumentals and a vicious bass. The remix seems to suit both rappers' deliveries better than the original. Download the track below.
