Lupe Fiasco "THOT 97" (Freestyle)



I'm not familiar with the original song or rapper but Lu goes over Que's "OG Bobby Johnson" and goes in on it just like he was killing beats around The Cool


Video: Justin Bieber with Chance The Rapper "Confident"



Justin Bieber releases the video of his second single "Confident" featuring Chicago's own Chance The Rapper from off of his new album "Journals" it's a nice video for that goes along with the song which is sort of uncommon in music these days where not much thought goes into videos but Justin does it well.

Video: Childish Gambino & Chance The Rapper "The Worst Guys"



I'm guessing somewhere between having all of their twitter & instagram followers question what the hell Roscoe's Wesuit is and shooting for the cover of Complex magazine Childish Gambino and Chance The Rapper got together to shoot the video for the unapologetic bromance that is (one of the better records on Because of the Internet IMO) The Worst Guys.


Video: Killer Mike - "Ghetto Gospel"



A year and some change after the release of his 2012 album Killer Mike releases another video from the collection which is arguably one of the best rap albums of that year. The video must be the to awaken those absent minds that slept on the R.A.P. Music album, Killer Mike is set to release the second part edition "R.A.P. Music 2" later this year as well as another "Run The Jewels" and "I Pledge Allegiance to the Grind IV" Killer Mike seems to have a busy year to look forward to.

Juvenile "Booty" with 2 Chainz

It was bound to happen soon or later! I'm guessing some time around when either 2 Chainz had 3 quarters of the group The Hot Boyz in his video for "Used To" or when 2 Chains brought out Juve the Great for his set on the BET Hip Hop awards they got around to doing some studio work.
