It has been a while since I have posted some tunes. Here are a grab-bag of tracks that have been played loudly at the RXTT household these past few months. Turn it up LOUD.
Travis Scott feat. Young Thug and M.I.A. - Franchise
The Beatles - I Want You (She's So Heavy)
The Sinseers - What's His Name?
Durand Jones & The Indications - Is It Any Wonder?
Here we go again! It has been a while, but I again offer you five more Hip Hop tracks that have been bouncing around my head lately. As always, some are fresh and new, and some are old and new-to-me!
SHECK WES - YKTS
YOUNG THUG (Feat. J. Cole, Travis Scott) - The London
Once again, another installment of the ten tracks I have been banging on the commute lately. This will be a bit heavy on the Travis Scott, for his new album ASTROWORLD is quite awesome. As always, some of these are older tracks, some are FRESH.
The music continues to come, and I continue to blast these tracks in the whip on the way home from work. Here are ten more Hip Hop tracks I have been digging lately, for your enjoyment.
YEAH. I cannot get enough! The hot tracks keep coming and I keep blasting them in my foreign whip on the way home. May the beats and rhymes help you out as much as they do me. Let's get this next batch started! Some are fresh, and some are old. Enjoy.
It has been a while since I put up a new list of ten hip hop tracks that have been melting my melon, man. There was a bit of a lull there in the tail end of 2017, and I had to go back and check out tracks I had missed through the year. Here we go.
FUTURE - Fresh Air
TY DOLLA $IGN - Don't Judge Me (feat. Future & Sway Lee)
Man, there is nothing better at the end of the day than blasting some amazing new tunes as you drive home from work. That long commute really benefits from some bangers. Here are ten more to make your commute worth it. Some are new, some are older, but all are awesome.
I am a resident of Houston, TX (AKA Screwston, H-town, Da H, Space City, Hou-stoned, etc.) and because of this I have the curse of a long commute in to work. Most Houstonians do, and it is not an exageration to say that many people have commutes that are an hour or more. Quite a few people I work with drove 3 hours a day just going to and returning from work. This allows for a large number of talk radio stations, especially sports talk, but that gets tiring after a while. I use this time to blast music from my car. This is a collection of ten hip hop tracks I have been blasting lately. Some are very new, and a few are old tracks I am re-exploring. Enjoy.
It is time once again for a run down of the latest Ten Hip Hop tracks I have been blasting in the car ride home from work. Some of these are very recent and a few are tracks I have been jamming for a while or I found digging through some of these guy's back catalog. Remember to turn up the bass and lay low on the treble. As always, thanks to the good folks at Street Flava, especially D Solo!
It is yet again time for a list of the ten Hip Hop tracks I have been blasting from my car to survive the 1 hour commute each way to work and back. As usual, thanks to all the local Houston radio stations, the fellas over at the Sonic Youth Gossip Forum's "Louder's Hip Hop Cafe", and my man D-Solo whose TV show Street Flava still gets lit every Saturday night at 11:00 PM. Not all of these are super current, but I am always digging up older stuff I missed out on.
The last time I made a list of Ten Current Hip Hop Faves was in June. It is now nearing October, and the music never stops coming. Between my old stand-by Street Flava (The SF !), Houston's hip hop radio stations, and the suggestions and recommendations of my pals over at the Sonic Youth Gossip Forum (specifically the good folks in the thread Louder's Hip Hop Cafe, currently in its 5th incarnation), I am always awash with new tunes and old bangers I may have missed, ready to add to my ever-growing Spotify playlist which I title A+ Whip Songs.
I love music. I love finding new tunes and groups to listen to. Here in Houston, Texas, there is a long-running video show called STREET FLAVA, hosted by H-town's own D Solo, which showcases hip hop videos mostly from the Dirty South (Houston, the rest of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Atlanta). It airs on Saturdays at 11:00 PM on KTXH, Channel 20.
I have been been watching this show off and on for over 20 years. I originally watched it on the Houston PBS station but too many old white folks complained after tuning in their beloved PBS and seeing too much bootie poppin' for their sensibilities. After picking up some sponsors (who have their own hilarious commercials as well) it moved to KTXH and has been "The Soul of the South" ever since.
What is great about Street Flava is that videos from international stars such as Drake or Rihanna will air alongside local independent rappers such as Psyco Sid, Frank Nitty Supreem, or huge up-and-comers like Travis Scott and Future. Often, their tracks will air on Street Flava before I hear them on the H's hip hop radio stations. It is a great resource. I have never met D Solo but if I did I would thank him for the work he puts into the show and for constantly sharing the good tunes. Between his show, the DJ's in Screwston that play the new bomb tracks, and mixtapes found online, I get to keep an ear on the Third Coast Hip Hop, and bangin' tracks in general. It is just awesome.
Here are, currently, my ten favorite Hip Hop videos.
