Kid Cudi: "Mojo So Dope"
*Update: a tagless version has hit the web, and you can get it here.
The heads over at YoungMoneyHD.com got their hands on some new Kid Cudi, and decided to leak the joint. It's pretty tagged up, but you get the point. On "Mojo So Dope" Kid Cudi professes an ethos of having the blinders on, as he says in the chorus, "dont' give a f**k about your lifestyle... My mojo so dope." But, it's not all boasting and bragging. Cudi also continues the theme of battling his own demons, as well as his own family issues. In other Cudi news, his sophomore album is now expected to drop in October, we'll keep you updated on those developments as well. Download the track below.
Nardwuar Vs. Drake
It was only a matter of time until Nardwuar caught up with Drake. I think that you can probably ask any question while using that tone and it will sound unoffensive. They should do police interrogations like that. Drake gives major props to Little Brother, talks about his bras, and more. Sidenote, that Little Brother 12 inch with "The Get Up" is one of my favorite pieces of vinyl as well. It's a classic single.
Freddie Gibbs: Str8 Killa, No Filla Mixtape
This is the first of two releases in two weeks from Freddie Gibbs, who is no stranger to RubyHornet and I'm sure everyone reading this already knew that. The Str8 Killa, No Filla mixtape brings forth more dope s**t from Freddie Gibbs, and also serves as a prelude to his official EP, Str8 Killa, dropping on Tuesday. You can pre-order the EP via iTunes. I'm gonna wait til next week to pick up a hard copy.
The mixtape is presented by TSS and XXL and features Bun B, Pill, Sick Jacken, L.E.P, Planet Asia and others. The back cover and download link are below.
