2011 XXL Freshmen

XXL‘s 2011 Fresman Class is out. Here’s the list: Lil B, Big K.R.I.T, CyHi Da Prynce, Diggy Simmons, Fred The Godson, Kendrick Lamar, Lil Twist, Mac Miller, Meek Mill, Yelawolf, and YG.

I’m pretty damn mad that XV has yet to make XXL’s top freshmen class. Any long-time XV fan knows XV’s beef with XXL, but, the more I think about it, it’s good for him. Listening to Vizzy’s lyrics, it’s clear he has taken the underdog-unappreciated role and created a mindset to just “make hits instead of lists.”

XXL didn’t expect XV to excel, so before

It’s been a long week for me. I’m extremely tired. I didn’t even post anything about the Grammys either. I’ll have something up later tonight that’s more well thought-out. For now, here’s PMA’s take on Chiddy Bangs just-released new track:

You know we’re still up on some Chiddy Bang shit.

Here is another new Chiddy Bang outtake (after last week’s wickedly awesome “Rebel”) that won’t make it to the debut album, The Swelly Life, out later this year. “Baby Roulette” features a hook from none other than Train — most likely known by

New Mp3: Chiddy Bang – “Rebel”

I missed this yesterday because the Dear Song In My Head had its first ever meeting. We have a lot planned for the near future.

Xaphoon Jones leaked this song out after gaining 10K followers on Twitter. It’s about time some new Chiddy Bang came out. Xaphoon and Chiddy are at their best when they remix indie-pop tunes or sample classics and “Rebel” is no different. “Rebel” won’t be on their next album, The Swelly Life, but it’s good to see they’re still on some dope stuff.

XV just dropped the visuals for FIFA (Feeling Internationally Famous Already) which is a teaser for the The Kid With The Green Backpack album that has taken longer to debut than Dr. Dre’s “Detox.”

“‘Pomona’ let us in,

Now they spotted a N***a like leopard prints”

Okay, Vizzy doesn’t really say “Pomona” but I thought he did, and I asked him, but he said “Club Owner.”
Damnit, I just wanted a shoutout to my city from XV. Ha

New MP3! Mac Miller – Donald Trump

Mac Miller UStream-ed an announcement yesterday for the release of his forthcoming mixtape, #BestDayEver; he is set to release Best Day Ever on March 11, 2011. I don’t even know how I stumbled across it but I’m glad I did because this joint is fire. Miller’s smooth flow along with his good rhymes make for a dope track. Donald Trump is the first single released from the mixtape and he has plans to drop a video for the track soon.

Check out “Donal Trump” below and make sure to cop the

You know those nights where you feel like you have nothing to do and all conversations sound dull? By the way, have you noticed that I start most of my posts with a question? Why do I always ask questions that I know you guys really don’t have to answer? Should I keep on going with the questions? Answer me!

Alright, enough fooling around. For this post, I asked some of our readers to a post a song on our Facebook page and I’ll make a post on it. Some douchebag thought it would be funny to post Gunther’s

Countdown to Coachella: The Twelves

Remixes and covers usually get a bad rap from people as most consider cover bands too unoriginal for comfort. But The Twelves are a different story. Mixing great artists such as Fever Ray, Radiohead and site favorite Two Door Cinema Club with electronic rhythms and upbeat guitars, The Twelves are changing the face of remixes everywhere. This Brazilian duo has the amazing ability to take a song and turn it into an upbeat plethora of catchy rhythms and dance-friendly beats which rival, if not top, the original songs themselves! Along with their remixes, they also produced their own tracks,
