Songs Of The Day 1/29/14 (Feat. Mac Miller, Paper Diamond, Cam'ron and more)
. . . And we're back with the latest wave of released tracks to hit the web today. Starting things off, Pittsburgh native Mac Miller, who recently announced his departure from longtime label Rostrum Records, dropped his single, "Tequila" today under the moniker Larry Fisherman. Cam'ron & A-Trak got together on "Humphrey" and a bit of generational hand-off happened as Freddie Gibbs and Madlib show the youngin's what's what on "Robes" which features OFWGKTA members Earl Sweatshirt and Domo Genesis who kill over the soulful Madlib-produced joint. Paper Diamond proves he's a machine by pumping out yet another track in what seems like a constant assembly line of bass-heavy jams and Future does his own rendition of Beyonce & Jay-Z's recent single, "Drunk In Love", but without Ciara. Check out all of the songs of the day, streaming below!

MED, Blu, D?M-FunK: "Peroxide" (Prod. Madlib)
A couple weeks ago I posted the star-studded first single off the Madlib-produced upcoming project, The Buzz, bearing the same name as the release. Today, the squad of Madlib, Blu, MED and D?M-FunK get together for the B-side to The Buzz (Available on vinyl, here.), titled "Peroxide", originally due out tomorrow. The release marks the first time all of these artists have been featured together on vinyl and buying the throwback medium will get you a bonus beat, as well as several a capella tracks and instrumentals. Check the second half of the project, "Peroxide" here below.

[Video] Roc Marciano: "Sacrifice" (prod. by Madlib)
Last week, Roc Marciano dropped his latest project, The Pimpire Strikes Back. This week, Roc drops a video as a follow up to the mixtape, giving us a visual for his Madlib-produced single "Sacrifice". The song and accompanying video certainly reinforce the aesthetic that emanates from the mixtape's title. Check out Roc Marciano's pimp dream in the video below.

MED, Blu, Mayer Hawthorne & Madlib: "The Buzz"
This super funky collaboration is, in fact, real. MED got together with the soulful trio of Blu, Madlib and Detroit's own Mayer Hawthorne to craft "The Buzz". With a beat perfectly suited for everyone involved as Hawthorne lays the hooks between which Blu, MED and Madlib do their thing. The track will make even the greyest of Fall days seems a bit more hopeful. Check out the track below and keep an eye out for the single dropping November 26 with D?M-FunK‘s “Peroxide” on the B-side. Pick up "The Buzz" via Stones Throw.
Freddie Gibbs & Madlib: "City" (feat. Karriem Riggins)
Freddie Gibbs' work ethic is unquestionable. He recently dropped the hardest street-album this year in ESGN and now he's back with another single from his upcoming collaborative project with the legendary Madlib. "City" features Karriem Riggins and will be released as part of Adult Swim’s Summer Singles series.
Piñata will feature aekwon, Mac Miller, Danny Brown, Joey Bada$$, Ab-Soul, Earl Sweatshirt, Domo Genesis, Casey Veggies and more!
Madlib: "Lifetime (Lifeline)"
Madlib turns in a sample heavy and smoothed out version of "Turn My Headphones Up", and delivers one of the more enjoyable joints I've heard in a minute. This is off his new Beat Konducta Vol 6, which serves as a tribute to J. Dilla. This joint was released via RCRD LBL, where Madlib is also the featured artist.
