Video: The SPOTLIGHT: Toshitaka Kondo @ Complex Magazine (Part 2)

Check out Part 2 of Good*Fella Media’s profile of Toshitaka Kondo, Senior Editor at Complex Magazine. To explain more about the context of this post, I’ll just quote myself from last week:

The SPOTLIGHT is a column video series that the people over at GoodFellaMedia have started doing, dedicated to highlighting the behind-the-scenes (radio, magazine/blog writers, directors, photographers, etc.) individuals that don’t normally get the spotlight. These are the people that they feel strongly impact the culture of music and “make things happen”.

Check out Part One (previously posted) here.

Mixtape: Frank Ocean – The Lonny Breaux Collection

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m sure you’ve heard the recent buzz about recording artist and Odd Future member, Frank Ocean and his latest mixtape titled Nostalgia, Ultra. (And if you haven’t don’t worry, I’m not here to judge… So I’ll just post a link to download Nostalgia, Ultra below as well so you can catch up to the rest of the world and see what all the hype is about.)

Anyways, let’s get back on topic. If you’re like me and can’t get enough of Frank and his latest mixtape, then The Lonny Breaux Collection is a MUST DOWNLOAD for you. Lonny Breaux was the alias Frank used before he went by Frank Ocean, and the download below consists of 63 unreleased tracks pre-Nostalgia, Ultra. You’re welcome, and enjoy!

Audio: Slaughterhouse ft. Ludacris – Furiously Dangerous (Snippet)

Here’s 30-second snippet from a Slaughterhouse and Ludacris collab that will be on Fast And The Furious 5. I kinda want to say something about how it’s weird hearing a Luda feature on a non-dance track but I won’t.

Audio: Stevie Crooks – Champagne City

Earlier this year Westcoast MC Stevie Crooks released a conceptual album titled The World Is Not Enough aka The W.I.N.E. I was revisiting the Bond themed project today and I felt like I had to share at least one track. This one’s titled “Champagne City.” Listen and download the mixtape below to get the full 007 effect.
