Big K.R.I.T. – Last King 2 (Mixtape)

Big K.R.I.T., point blank, is a dope ass rapper! If you haven’t gotten up on K.R.I.T. Wuz Here or Return Of 4Eva yet – you’re missing out. He’s from the South but he can sound like he’s from New York if need be. But obviously he’s got that southern flair too him as well so his versatility really shines in his projects. Here’s his newest one which kind of unsuspectingly dropped today. New music is better than no music though. And it’s a free mixtape hosted by Live Mixtapes plus has features from Chris Brown, Wiz Khalifa, Dom Kennedy, Bun B and more.  Download and tracklist is below:

This Is Dope: DOM Kennedy – Grind’n

This is dope! Legoooo Dom! This is that summer music right here…

Dom Kennedy – The Original Dom Kennedy (Mixtape)

And this new Dom Kennedy mixtape came out of nowhere.  Here’s an up and coming artist that I felt got snubbed on this year’s XXL Freshmen cover.  If you haven’t heard of dude, give this tape a listen and you’ll see why he’s buzzing and why the Leimart Park rapper is as nice as people say he is.  Download link and tracklist is below:
