Lady Leshurr X Paigey Cakey Freestyle

Taken from Semtex's show (the very man that put us onto Ms. Cakey), these two female MC's work really well together.

Love this freestyle; it seems so soft but if you listen, the bars are very, very hard.

Can't wait to hear more from Paigey.

Sway Ft. Mr. Hudson: Charge

Joining Mr. Example on his tour next year, Sway has also hooked up with his buddy Mr. Hudson on this effervescent new single, taken from his forthcoming third album.

Love lines like "Positive energy/ Cos when I pick up a magazine, that's the only time I'm looking at an enemy (NME)". Sway really suits this beat and it's always great to hear Mr. H having a lovely sing. Lolz at the snatches of Gypsy Woman refrain from Crystal Waters.

BET Ciphers 2012

We love it when the annual BET ciphers drop; Nicki Minaj killed hers a few months before she blew up. This year, there's a lot of newbies looking for similar shine.

Our very own Chip features on the Grand Hustle Cipher alongside Iggy Azealia, while Angel Haze looks to get some freshman love, as does Hopsin, the man who some say preceded Tyler, The Creator by a couple of years.

Love how the way they've split the ciphers; 'The True School' features Jean Grae, Sarkodie from Ghana and Talib Kweli. 'The Iron Mic' sees A$AP and Angel and go head to head with Joey Badda$$ and Childish Gambino. 'The Hip Hop Awards' features Schoolboy Q and Mac Miller, who 'shouts out' Rita Ora! The 'West Coast' features, as you might expect, Kendrick Lemar, Snoop, Xhibit, YG, Kurupt, E-40 and DJ Quik.

Mystikal does something that really needs to be seen to be believed. Yeah. Just, yeah.

By the way, the ad's before each one are very annoying, yes, but persevere.

Trailer: The Canyons

Direceted by Paul 'Taxi Driver' Schrader and starring Lindsey 'Uh Oh' Lohan and porn star James Deen.

The Canyons focuses on the sexual exploits of a group of 20-something friends. Given that it's written by Bret Eastern Ellis,  you can imagine we're in for a lot of sex, drugs, whiny self-analysis and brilliantly self-centered behaviour. The releases promises "deceit, paranoia, cruel mind games and ultimately violence."

Abaoslutely loving this retro trailer. Not sure if the entire film will be like this, but promises to be an interesting watch regardless.

The Canyons is relesaed next year.

Disclosure Ft. Sam Smith: Latch

Brothers Guy and Howard are two of the most exciting producers working in music right now. Their music is just so gorgeous, hard to classify and of its own ilk.

"We listen to A LOT of J Dilla that’s probably a big influence in terms of production… in terms of the sounds he used and his mixes," they told RWD recently. "We took Joy Orbison style synth sounds and Dilla-esque beats with a garage sound. We wanted to mix all of that into one sound." 

Love their choice of vocalists too - Ria Ritchie, Sinead Harnett and now Sam.

Thumbs up emoticon.

A fantastic video too, one that you actually want to watch the whole way through. A rarity!

The Child Of Lov: Heal

We've told you about Child Of Lov before. He's ace!


TCOL is one talented mother. He writes, produced and plays everything - including guitar, keys and "a cheap pink bass" apparently. Other than that not much is known about this reclusive character, other than that he's been living in London, Paris and Amsterdam with roots in the ATL.


This is the first track to be taken from an album that features collaborations with Doom, Damon Albarn and Thundercat. We can't wait to get our mitts on this lovely piece of music.

As a warm up, we have the D'angelo (One Mo'Gin) referencing Heal, with video direction from Focus Creeps (Arctic Monkeys) as TCOL heads to Atlanta for some rollerskating, lolz on the rail tracks and school lessons.

Heal is available on Domino affiliate Double Six and can be bought from here.
