Video: Drake - 'Take Care' & 'HYFR'

It seems like a lifetime ago that we first heard Drake's take on the Gil Scott-Heron/Jamie xx anthem 'I'll Take Care Of U'. Yet Aubrey finally dropped the video to the eponymous track from his second album, which was released in November of last year. Also, as a bonus he went and gifted us with a video to another Take Care track, 'HYFR'. Don't say Drizzy doesn't treat his fans well.

Song of the Day: #35

You know when you listen to a song expecting it to be completely average, but then it totally blows your mind. Well, that's what happened to me when I first heard Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros' track 'Home'. Since then they have had, and will always have, a place in my heart.

MP3: Kanye West - 'Theraflu' & 'Touch The Sky' (Remix)

I've not posted for a while, so it had to be something big to kick it off again. New Kanye tracks? Yeah, I think that's big enough.

Song of the Day: #34

I've had a complete Eminem obsession the last couple of days, where I've been listening to all of his albums on repeat. Even Eminem's biggest stan (see what I did there?) will have to admit that Em's career has taken a steady downward curve since he returned from a four year break to release Encore. So it's no surprise that I keep finding myself coming back to classics like The Eminem Show.

Video: Odd Future - Oldie

The Odd Future Tape Vol. 2 is finally here! The album features all of the talent that the hip-hop collective contains within it. To mark this occasion, the group dropped the video for album closer 'Oldie'.

Song of the Day: #33

Tyga has been grafting hard over the last few years, remember 'Coconut Juice'? Well, now he's blowing up in a big way.

Video: Diplo - Express Yourself (Feat. Nicky Da B)

Fresh off the back of his outstanding collaboration with R&B legend Usher, Diplo is preparing to drop his Express Yourself EP. If you're a fan of booty shaking, soul-claps and music itself, then you are definitely in the right place.

Willis Earl Beal - Evening's Kiss (Live at Now Wave Manchester)

If you follow me on twitter (@benjamintowersx) you may have noticed my love for Willis Earl Beal (see: here and here). This guy is blowing my mind every time I listen to his musical gifts to us mere mortals.

Song of the Day: #32

Yo, Estelle, Where have you been for the last three years? You went and dropped the brilliant 'American Boy' and 'Pretty Please (Love Me)', and then left us high and dry. Not cool, Estelle. Not cool.

Labrinth - Earthquake (All Star RMX) (Feat. Tinie Tempah, Kano, Wretch 32 & Busta Rhymes)

Labrinth is seizing 2012 by the scruff of it's neck and making it bow down to his genius. When 'Earthquake' dropped in late 2011 (Labrinth's first solo single since 2010's 'Let The Sun Shine') he demonstrated his ability to craft an infectious hook and pounding beat, and because of this, 'Earthquake' has become a club-anthem. Well, Labrinth has taken it to the next level.

You didn't think Odd Future had given up on trying to shock people, had you?

Song of the Day: #30

Tanlines are an indie-rock/pop duo hailing from Brooklyn, New York and they are prepping for the release of their debut album Mixed Emotions on March 20th. I think the guy on the left is my favourite because he's wearing a Mariah Carey t-shirt. Yeah, definitely the guy on the left.

There must be something in the water in Sweden because the amount of amazing pop music to come from the Scandinavian country in the last couple of years cannot be a coincidence. Amazing pop acts such as; Lykke Li, Robyn, Icona Pop and Rebecca & Fiona, to name a few, have shown the talent that is brewing in the country, and now Amanda Mair steps forward to continue the countries strike rate.

If you haven't heard of Mz. Bratt, then you need to get familiar because she's about to take over the UK music scene.

Video: Gotye - Easy Way Out

If a video takes nine months to make, then it needs to be pretty special. Special is certainly what this new Gotye video is.

Rita Ora - R.I.P. (Feat. Tinie Tempah)

Following on from the success of her DJ Fresh collaboration, 'Hot Right Now', Rita Ora is preparing for the release of her debut solo-single in the UK. (She has already released 'Party & Bullshit' as her debut US single). Of course, Tinie Tempah does what he does best and latches himself onto an American-affiliated artist in his continued quest to break America, therefore he provides a few bars that add nothing to the song whatsoever. Well done Tinie. Listen to the otherwise enjoyable song, 'R.I.P.', below. Oh, and it was written by Drake and produced by Chase & Status. No Biggie.

A*M*E - Ride Or Die

A few weeks ago I featured A*M*E's brilliant single, 'City Lights', as my SOTD. Well now she's back with the even more impressive, 'Ride Or Die'. Like 'City Lights', this track is produced by MNEK and showcases A*M*E's ability to switch between rapping and singing with ease, never sounding out of her depth. This girl is in it for the long-haul for sure. Listen to 'Ride Or Die' below.

Isn't Marina all beautiful and lovely with her blonde hair. I feel she made a fantastic decision in deciding her alter-ego, Electra Heart, would be a blonde. Very good Marina.

Song of the Day: #26

It was just a matter of time until this happened.

Nicki Minaj - Roman Reloaded (Feat. Lil Wayne)

Another day, another Nicki Minaj track from upcoming album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. The (sort of) title track, 'Roman Reloaded', shows us a different Nicki than we saw on 'Stupid Hoe' and 'Starships'. 'Roman Reloaded' is the closest we've got to mixtape-Nicki for a long time. Plus, we get a feature from YMCMB boss, Weezy. This is some Sucka Free shit right here.
