Frank-Ocean-1024x682

Following the altercation with Chris Brown, and amidst the rumors swirling around the internet that Frank was planning on pressing charges, the man himself took to his Tumblr to the address the situation, writing:

AS A CHILD I THOUGHT IF SOMEONE JUMPED ME IT WOULD RESULT IN ME MURDERING OR MUTILATING A MAN. BUT AS A MAN I AM NOT A KILLER. I’M AN ARTIST AND A MODERN PERSON. I’LL CHOOSE SANITY. NO CRIMINAL CHARGES. NO CIVIL LAWSUIT. FORGIVENESS, ALBEIT DIFFICULT, IS WISDOM. PEACE, ALBEIT TRITE, IS WHAT I WANT IN MY SHORT LIFE. PEACE.

A$AP Rocky, Lil Wayne, T.I., Mac Miller & More Share Super Bowl Predictions (Video)

The Underachievers – Indigoism (Mixtape)

Indigoism

Heard the duo on DyMe-A-DuZiN’s “New Brooklyn” Remix and liked what I heard. The group is The Underachievers and they’re part of the New New York movement, a new wave of rappers hailing out of New York. After singing with Flying Lotus’ L.A.-based label Brainfeeder last summer, The Underachievers present you with their latest project, Indigoism. 17 tracks, no features, a perfect way to get more familiar with the Brooklyn duo.

Tracklist, video for Track #14 “Mahdi,” stream and download after the jump.

Drake – Started From The Bottom (Audio)

Started From The Bottom

“Started From The Bottom,” produced by OVO in-house producer Mike Zombie, is the first single off Drake’s third studio album. This is the track that was rumored to drop on Grammy night. Drizzy decided to release it earlier than scheduled and on his blog, just like the good ol’ days.

Here’s what Drake had to say with the release of his new single:

My good friends,

It has truly been too long. I assume you’re all keeping well and making the most of this year that has been given to us. Today is the day to begin sharing my newest work with you. This is the first single off of my upcoming album. I feel sometimes that people don’t have enough information about my beginnings and therefore they make up a life story for me that isn’t consistent with actual events. My family and my second family (consisting of the best friends anybody could ever have) all struggled and worked extremely hard to make all this happen. I did not buy my way into this spot and it was the furthest thing from easy to achieve. I am proud of every part of my past and I’m excited for this song to find a place in your life as well. I didn’t feel I needed any interviews or radio or press to launch this song. It felt right to come back to the site that I started on and release it to the people that started here with me. Judging by this post, the tour that we’ve been planning, the conversations about new songs and album artwork…I think it’s safe to say we’re back together again. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
