When comparing rappers Big Sean and LL Cool J, we now know two things. First, Big Sean’s ‘Paradise’ track (one of the best tracks on his newest Dark Sky Paradise album) is substantially better than LL Cool J’s track of the same name. Hell, LL’s hook goes “Paradise is very nice.” But now we also know that Big Sean is much better at pictionary than LL, as the two competed against each other on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

While Big Sean teamed up with Jimmy Fallon and drew a pretty solid tree house, LL Cool J gave a hilariously pathetic attempt at a tattoo drawing for his partner, actress Rose Byrne. Watch the two rappers compete below!

Ever since the unexpected announcement and release of his 2014 Forest Hills Drive album (his best album to date), J. Cole has stayed busy. And with the release of his new music video for his ‘Wet Dreamz’ track (which coincidentally is about the first time Cole got busy), J. Cole is continuing to stay busy. Not only is J. Cole currently on a huge three-part worldwide tour, but now he is recording music videos where Cole co-stars with dogs (you read that right, dogs). Personification at its best use in a rap video for sure!

Watch Cole’s ‘Wet Dreamz’ video below, and Chicago fans be sure to catch Cole’s Chicago stop on his tour, July 28th in Tinley Park with Big Sean, YG and more!

Father and his Awful Records Collective Releases 15 New Songs

Another day, another series of blessings on my SoundCloud feed. This afternoon, while sifting through the soulful Kendrick Lamar demo of Kanye West’s “All Day”, and whatever Spooky Black is co-signing these days, I noticed there were new tracks being released by Abra, Micah Freeman and Father. A few clicks later, I realized that today is an unoffical holiday, but not 4/20. It’s #AwfulHoliday, and in celebration, Awful Records has released an album’s worth of songs for free, as well as a video and some more of that pure, unfiltered debauchery that Father’s followers just can’t get enough of. Aside from this, Father’s new track with KeithCharles SpaceBar features artwork that hasn’t caught my attention and made me this uncomfortable since when I first saw the deluxe cover of Tyler, the Creator’s XL album Goblin in 2011. Even though it’s just a close-up of an Instagram flick of a security cam.

Listen to the new songs and watch the video below.

Listen to a New Better Quality Version of Kanye West’s “All Day” with Kendrick Lamar

Last week a full original version to Kanye West’s ‘All Day’ track with Kendrick Lamar appeared online. Well as it turns out, it wasn’t actually a full version, as a new and better quality version with a full verse from King Kendrick (and new intro) has now surfaced. We weren’t huge fans of the last remix, but this one is definitely hot. If this didn’t make the final cut for Kanye’s forthcoming So Help Me God album, we can only imagine what will.

Listen to the new ‘All Day’ demo featuring Kendrick Lamar below.

Tech N9ne just dropped his new Eminem and Krizz Kaliko collaboration, titled ‘Speedom’. In addition to recruiting one of the greatest rappers of all time, by one of the biggest underground rappers of all time, the guitar lead on the track’s instrumental makes this record unique (to say the least). It isn’t our favorite song of the year, but definitely check it out for yourself.

Listen to the ‘Speedom’ featuring Eminem and Krizz Kaliko below.
