LISTEN TO “R&D” FEATURING KID SISTER
“This mixtape is an homage to all of my musical inspirations growing up… From Fleetwood Mac, to System of a Down, all the way to Southside Chicago Juke and Footwork. It’s as much a throwback to the early mash up days as it is a step forward for rap production. For the last 10 years I’ve been part of a creative partnership, so this is completely new and exciting territory for me going off on my own.” – Me2
LIL LONNIE X K CAMP
20-year-old Mississippi rising star Lil Lonnie trades catchy auto-tuned bars with K Camp on the remix of the hook-driven single-life anthem “Special,” a highlight from Lonnie’s recently released mixtape TKWGO 2. In the video for “Special (Remix),” premiered today by WorldStarHipHop, Lil Lonnie tours Los Angeles in his Porsche, making stops at the pool and the block before settling in a cul-de-sac with the supremely laid back K Camp. Released earlier this month, TKWGO 2 is the sequel to last year’s underground hit They Know What’s Goin’ On, which was a top-downloaded independent mixtape on LiveMixtapes in 2015, and features appearances from Bryson Tiller, K Camp, and Jxmmi of Rae Sremmurd and production from Big Fruit, Will-a-Fool and others.

NEW PARTBABY VIDEO
Infectious rock n’ roll quartet PARTYBABY have been steady on the rise for some time and today they’ve released a video for “I Don’t Wanna Wait” from their forthcoming EP. The band led by Noah Gersh and Jamie Schefman say this of the video: “We got a bit sick of people asking us why we were intentionally hiding our faces or not being in our videos. Our shows can get wild so we thought we’d address both issues as best we could, with bright shiny lights in our dumb sweaty faces. Also who doesn’t like to chase a feeling every once in a while.”
Check the video below and share if you love it. You can also see the band live all summer long supporting SWMRS and then later WAVVES.

X AMBASSADORS DONATE PROCEEDS FROM MISSISSIPPI COAST COLISEUM CRAWFISH FESTIVAL SHOW TO UNITY MISSISSIPPI
Ahead of X Ambassadors’ April concert at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum Crawfish Festival in Biloxi Mississippi the band announced they would be donating the proceeds from the show to a local LGBT charity after the state signed into law HB 1523—the “Protecting Freedom of Conscience from Government Discrimination Act”— an “anti-LGBT bill” that would give legal cover to those who want to discriminate against people out of their religious belief.
X Ambassadors today made that donation to Unity Mississippi as news comes that a federal judge striking part of HB 1523 barring Mississippi from denying same-sex marriage licenses, meaning no circuit clerk or staff member clerk can deny a gay couple a marriage license even if House Bill 1523 is in effect.
