Meek Demeo's track "Paper Birds" featuring Kendrick Lamar got a remix from Galimatias that takes the song up a notch higher than it already was, Young Money teased their upcoming collaboration album with "Senile" by Tyga, Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne. A Billion Young appropriately tapped Brian Fresco for his latest single, "Fresco" while Young Thug continued on a tear of singles, the most recent of which is "Ouch". Romeo Santos got with Nicki Minaj as well, tapping her for his hit "Animales" while Taylor Bennett got together with Loyale Soule to pay homage to a good friend in the soulful "Brother Man". A$AP Ant became the latest of the A$AP Mob to emerge on the public sphere, this time with his single, "Zaytoven" while Koda kept things moving in his latest, "Invitation to Love". Alex Wiley and Closed Sessions continued a powerful start to 2014 with another fresh new song in "Own Man" which pairs him with talented Chicagoan Mick Jenkins and Big Boi continued his "Mash-up Mondays" series with a collab with none other than Phantogram, which resulted in the ridiculously funky, "Objectum Shalamar". Also, Joell Ortiz reminds folks he still has "Bars". All this and more, below!

[Songs Of The Day] 2/3/14 (Feat. Young Thug, Ellie Goulding, Big Boi & More)
And we're back for week two of our new daily feature on the site, "Songs of the Day". Starting February off on the right foot, we have a banger from Atlanta's Young Thug who demonstrates why he has the like of Kanye West raving about him, teaming up with Future and Rich Homie Quan for "Out My Face". We get a healthy dose of remixes once again, with re-workings of James Blake's "Life Round Here" from Ellie Goulding and Angel Haze, Rico Love showed off a packed lineup on his "They Don't Know" remix which features the likes of Ludacris, Trey Songz, Tiara Thomas, T.I. and Emjay. Robbie Brundell also tacks on his own rendition of Drake and Jhene Aiko's hit, "From Time". Australian EDM artist Will Sparks also delivers the first single off his upcoming, debut album in "Catch".
Hottest track of the day: Yasiin Bey, better known to the larger world as Mos Def, teamed up with a posthumous Marvin Gaye for what he calls "Yasiin Gaye" on this mash-up remix of Bey's 1997 track "Travelin' Man" and Gaye's 1971 hit "Inner City Blues" by producer Amerigo Gazaway. The track is infectiously soulful from beginning to end, making it our hottest track of the day.

Young Scooter: "Fresh Outta Jail"
Young Scooter is "Fresh Outta Jail" and already back in the studio working. This one-off joint probably won't find itself in any project, but Scooter makes it clear that he didn't lose a step while locked-up for six months and sounds as hungry to make it as ever. Street Lottery 2 will be out on January 1st, but you can stream this Zaytoven-produced track below.
