Childish Gambino - I Do Not Talk (Mixtape) & Donald Glover as Childish Gambino (FreEP)

Heard about this dude Donald Glover's (you know him as the guy from NBC's Community) swag as a rapper a while back, and I'm now pretty ashamed to say I didn't look into him at the time. Under the name Childish Gambino, Glover packs bars and flows as an emcee, making him an immediate KWT must download. Here's his latest project I Do Not Talk, and as a Gambino cherry-poppin'/April Fools Day bonus, we'll throw in the link to his latest EP Donald Glover as Childish Gambino. Hit the jump for the second download and artwork. Sorry we're late, but you should be honored by our lateness, that we would even show up to this fake shit.

Domo Genesis & Hodgy Beats - "Tang Golf"

Domo goes hard. Song is a little too short for out liking. Hopefully a follow up on a finished track. Unlike most of the OFWGKTA songs this production wasn't theirs, but rather GZA's "Liquid Swords."

Mac Miller - On and On and Beyond (EP)

Yep, that's right, Mac's second release in March here with this EP. Don't get toooooo excited though, there's only two brand new tracks, as the other four are either older tracks or more recent ones from his March 11th mixtape Best Day Ever. It's only 5 bones, so hit up iTunes (I know, I know, two posts in a row asking for money? Sorry, but it's good music) and support Mac.

Wiz Khalifa - Rolling Papers (Album)

After what seems like a thousand mixtapes, the day has finally come for Wiz to release his second album, Rolling Papers. Apparently no one in Canton knew about this cause LT copped the only physical copy available at our local record store. Be the next one to do so, and follow the link to iTunes and support real hip hop.

XV - "Foreign Exchange Student" (feat. Miami Horror)

XV lets loose an ode to foreign girls via Twitter. Not sure who Miami Horror is, but nonetheless it's a dope track. The Kid with the Green Backpack coming soon? We hope so. Stay tuned. BTW, XtotheV needs some new pics, I feel like we've used all of the available ones multiple times.

Big K.R.I.T. - ReturnOf4Eva (Mixtape)

Hit the jump for the rest of the interview. A lot of things are covered.

Big Sean - "My Last" (feat. Chris Brown) [Video]

I  completely don't fox with Breezy, cause well... ahem Rhianna. His music is sometimes nice, but dude is just going crazy with his styles. He is a Big Sean swagger jacker and claims the shit. But anyways Sean is coming up fast. We can't wait for May 3rd.

Odd Future and Curren$y vs. Nardwuar

Nardwuar is this crazy dude who knows the weirdest, craziest shit about some of our favorite artists. I've watched this guy's videos since the one with KiD CuDi. Watch these two that have been released in the last few days. Classic. Hahaha this dude does have a problem with putting the mic too close. He gets everyone a little riled up. Haha. Watch the KiD CuDi one though too above...

Curren$y vs, Nardwuar

Big Sean Weekend Recap #13: SXSW (Video)

For some reason we haven't been posting these in the past...oh well, expect them from now on. Anywayyyyy, in his 13th weekend recap, Big Sean's SXSW experience is profiled. Sean's upcoming debut, Finally Famous: The Album, is set for May 3rd. I doooo it, boi.

Snoop Dogg - "The Weed Iz Mine" (feat. Wiz Khalifa)

Snoop and Wizzle link up for the third time for this single off the Doggfather's upcoming album Doggumentary. This project, too, is set for a March 29th release, along with the featured Khalifa's album and Mac Miller's upcoming EP.

Mac Miller To Release New EP, "On and On and Beyond"

Despite just dropping Best Day Ever on March 11th, Mac Miller is again in the lineup of upcoming releases. The six song EP, to drop March 29th, will be titles On and On and Beyond. The EP will consist of four previous works from Best Day Ever and his other mixtapes and two new, original cuts. Stay tuned to KWT and follow @MacMiller on Twitter for upcoming details regarding his upcoming projects.

John West - "Lovely" (feat. Pusha T)

Smooth sounds from the Louisiana crooner John West plus a few lines from the dude Pusha T. How lovely. See what I did there?

Download: "Lovely" (feat. Pusha T)

Theophilus London - "Century Girl" (feat. Devonte Hynes)

Here's a track that didn't make the cut for Lover's Holiday, Theophilus' latest project. The KWT Freshmen's debut album looks like it's been set for a June release. Can't wait for that one.

Download: "Century Girl" (feat. Devonte Hynes)

Wiz Khalifa - "No Sleep"

Wiz Khalifa drops his new "poppy" track "No Sleep" from his upcoming album, Rolling Papers (March 29th). I'm super excited for this album just because I love the pop sounds he has been doing for the last 3 or 4 mixtapes he has dropped. The exception is Kush and Orange Juice. That tape was lacking those pop tracks so people (aka Twaan) now are assuming he is selling out. Look back on his older mixtapes and he was doing the same stuff he has done on the last few singles that have dropped with more of his hood type raps. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Kush and OJ, I just think that him putting out his more "poppy" tracks is getting him hype from the radios. The same hood type shit he raps about will be on there. I'm sure of it. Either way I'm buying and can't wait.

Pusha T - Fear Of God (Mixtape)

We've been waiting for Push's first solo offering for what seems like forever. It's finally here, and the last thing I wanna do is write about it. Listening....NOW.

XV - "Awesome (Remix)" [feat. Pusha T]

Pusha goes on XV's Everybody's Nobody track, getting us all even more amped for Fear of God. March 21 ya'll, each and every hip hop fan better have snag it when that day comes.

"Careless Whisper" Saxophone Prank

Just watch. Enjoy. Haha.

Odd Future - "Yonkers" x "Sandwitches" (MTV Woodie Awards)

Well since we are currently without cable television we didn't get to watch the MTV Woodie Awards, but of course OF had to shut the place down. Dudes are blowing up, "Whattup, Shake?". This is #SOBAR  (swagged out beyond all recognition). SWAGGG. GOLF WANG. Those stage dives they are taking are nuts haha. Enjoy. Oh and could Tyler's Goblin get anymore hype? May 10th. Get ready. 

Tyler, The Creator Sets Release Date for "Goblin" & Advertises on 2DopeBoyz

Over the past three days, hip hop blogs 2DopeBoyz and Nah Right, both of which Tyler has expressed his hatred for in pretty much all of his tracks, have been advertising the OFWGKTA leader's upcoming album Goblin. Obviously they are not choosing to do this, as neither of the two websites support or post any Odd Future music, let alone Tyler's. Hit the jump to see screenshots of both websites advertising the album's artwork, which is displayed below. The reasoning behind this is that Tyler, The Creator has set a release date for Goblin and has created a site that streams a snippet from a single from the album, shows the artwork and release date (May 10th), and expresses his hatred for the two blogs on which he ironically advertised. With OF covering Billboard, performing on late night TV, getting airtime on MTV, and receiving cosigns from huge artists such as Kanye West, it looks like hip hop has found its next big thing and now everyone is jumping on the bandwagon.

Pusha T - "Raid" (feat. 50 Cent) x Fear of God (Artwork)

Clipse and G.O.O.D. Music's Pusha T drops another single from his upcoming Fear of God mixtape, which is one of the most looked forward to projects of March, and that's definitely saying something. Neptunes on the production (of course) and 50 Cent lends a hand to Mr. Thornton on this one. Pretty sure this post pops our Curtis Jackson cherry...if I'd said that in 2002 ya'll woulda been callin' me a liar. Pusha T also let loose of Fear of God's album artwork via Rosewood.

Download: "Raid" (feat. 50 Cent)

Big K.R.I.T. - "American Rapstar"

K.R.I.T. drops another one from Return of 4eva, slated for March 22nd. Pretty sure all the dope hip hop artists got together and agreed to shit on the game in March. It's a conspiracy.

Download: "American Rapstar"

J. Cole - "Killers"

This self produced track is not set to be on J. Cole's upcoming debut album, but rather on an interesting mixtape that is linked to an art exhibition in NYC. The tape, The Glorification of Gangster, features various artists across all genres, and is aimed at the public's fascination with crime.

Download: "Killers"

Kanye West - "All Of The Lights (Remix)" [feat. Lil Wayne, Big Sean & Drake]

Once you make it through Weezy's auto-tuned disaster, Big Sean murders and Drake surprisingly does okay on the remix to Kanye's MBDTF super hit. This is obviously an unfinished version, and hopefully the final cut will include at least Yeezy and maybe Hov? Stay tuned.

Download Listen: "All Of The Lights (Remix)" [feat. Lil Wayne, Big Sean & Drake] (via Complex)

Hoodie Allen - "NY Is Killing Me"

Hoodie Allen drops his newest track via twitter, and on this one Steve Witz goes in about his love/hate relationship with the city he grew up in.

One half of The Cool Kids, Sir Michael Rocks (formerly known as Mikey Rocks), puts down his solo project, The Rocks Report. Mikey hooks us up with 25 tracks, with features from Cool Kid Chuck Inglish, Like, Mibbs, and Trademark Da Skydiver. Dope beats, dope rhymes...we cosign anything Sir Michael and The Cool Kids are puttin' out these days.

Big Sean - "Hometown" (Video)

Big Sean's visuals for his song "Hometown" off his Finally Famous Vol. 3. His album Finally Famous: The Album drops May 3rd, boiiiii!

Mac Miller - "Best Day Ever" (Mixtape)

It's finally here. #BestDayEver. I'm too pumped right now to listen to it that I'm not going to waste my time making a write up. You all just need to download this project. Period. #ThumbsUp

Big K.R.I.T. - "Time Machine" x "Dreamin'"

March 2011 is gonna be an insane month for hip hop music. If all the releases stopped now, I'd be happy with the music put out in the past week and a half. Big K.R.I.T.'s Return Of 4Eva is slated for a March 22nd release, which the KWT have been looking forward to since the '11 Freshman's K.R.I.T. Wuz Here. Dude has let loose two singles that will appear on the album, listen and snag em here.

Odd Future Covers Billboard Magazine

Tyler's "best week of his life" continues as OFWGKTA covers Billboard magazine. These guys are getting about as much hype right now as they possibly could, with the exception of those lames at 2dopeboyz. Odd Future: definitely the hottest crew in all of hip hop right now, and if you haven't given them a look yet....get on it. SWAG. SWAG. SWAG. SWAG. SWAG. SWAG. 

Dom Kennedy - The Original Dom Kennedy (Mixtape)

Well this was a surprise. Without any heads up whatsoever regarding this project, Dom Kennedy drops his new mixtape, The Original Dom Kennedy. Therefore, I don't have much to say about this release. I like what he did with the individual track covers, though. Never seen that before. Listening to it as I type this, sounds like typical, dope Dom, and we're in for another classic.

Download: The Original Dom Kennedy

Curren$y - "Soundbombin'"

March 15th. Muscle Car Chronicles. JETS, fool. Spitta lets go of the intro from his upcoming album.

Download: "Soundbombin'"

Lil B The Based God - "Base For Your Face" (feat. Jean Grae & Phonte)

Not saying LT and I are #Based or Lil B fans at all for that matter, but this joint goes. We're lovin' the Public Enemy scratched chorus that 9th Wonder laces so smoothly. This is easily the best rhymes I've heard from The Based God, as all other tracks are terrible for the KWT. 9th and Phonte are back working together, and this proves why they never should have stopped in the first place.

Download: "Base For Your Face" (feat. Jean Grae & Phonte)

Mac Miller - "XXL Freshman Freestyle" (Video)

One of the few Freshmen on this year's XXL frosh roster that I actually give two shits about drops his freestyle. But more importantly he is getting some looks just days before his mixtape Best Day Ever, dropping Friday. #ThumbsUp

Mac Miller - "In The Air" x Best Day Ever (Artwork)

Ustream with Mac Miller. He lets loose of the art work for Best Day Ever. Hopefully an update coming soon for the song he is releasing if #bestdayever trends on Twitter. Oh and it's gonna be 15 tracks... Yeaaaa. We at KWT likey. UPDATE: To cap off his Ustream sesh, Mac drops yet another single from Best Day Ever. This track,"In The Air," is the third release from his March 11th project, which definitely won't disappoint. Grab the download below and come back Friday for the entire mixtape.

Download: "In The Air"

Lupe Fiasco - Lasers (Album)

What a long, bullshit trip it's been for Lupe Fiasco... glad to see Lasers finally get the release, even though Lupe isn't happy with it. We all know it's leaked and it's available for free, but anyone who takes that route in order to snag Lasers is a complete and utter idiot in my book. Despite Lupe "hating" the album, what I've heard so far seems like straight up dope music...on Lupe's level. Which we all know is miles and miles ahead of pretty much everyone else. Hit up iTunes and support Lupe Fiasco and true hip hop music.


Download Buy: Lasers

Wiz Khalifa - "The Race"

Rolling Papers coming soon fools. March 29th. Get your trees ready. #WizLaughhaahaaa. This is supposedly his favorite song off the album, and I think it might be my favorite as well. It would be tough to match this track. Hopefully there are better ones that make this a great album. 

Download: "The Race"

Mac Milller - "Donald Trump" (Video)

Visuals for Mac Miller's first offering from his up and coming Best Day Ever, coming March 11. Stay tuned. 

XV - "All For Me" (feat. CyHi Da Prynce, Vado & Erin Christine) [Video]

Chip Tha Ripper - Gift Raps (FreEP)

Finally March 1st is here! Chip sets off the best month for hip hop that we've seen in a while with his free EP, Gift Raps.
