Ab-Soul, Kendrick Lamar, ScHoolboy Q and Jay Rock have been renamed the genius, Jordan, Puff Daddy and the muscle.

Beats TV sits down with the LA-based Black Hippy at SXSW. They talk to us about how their different personalities affect the diversity of their music, what gives their shows so much energy, touring with Wiz Khalifa and Mac Miller, being on the cover XXL, and how each member has a different sound.

“Long hair, Lana that’s my bitch / You can tell by the swagger and the lips”

Back at the beginning of this year, A$AP Rocky told us he had a song with Lana Del Rey. He also told us he had a crush on her. No word on any developments with that crush, but now we’ve got a preview of the track “Ridin'” from Lana and Rocky, with production handled by The Kickdrums. The track will appear on The Kickdrums’ Follow The Leaders mixtape, due tomorrow.

The first ever Rocawear commercial is a retrospective of Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter’s journey as a kid growing up in the humble projects of Brooklyn aspiring to make music and eventually making history. On that journey, the first business beyond music was the birth of Rocawear. Carter’s Rocawear brand represents his prowess as a business man who continues to challenge himself to be more than merely a musician.

Sidenote: Original track includes Ester Dean. Skylar was just there to lend her voice.
