Your Old Droog - "Just Rhymin'" ft. Styles P & Joey Bada$$

NYC rappers Your Old Droog, Styles P, and Joey Bada$$ just rhyme over some Black Milk production.

Various Artists - "Detroit vs. Everybody (Official Remix)"

I recently reviewed the new Shady XV compilation with Mr. Steven Francis, and I remember commenting on how much of a letdown the "Detroit vs. Everybody" cut was. While there were come decent verses on the track, the list of featured MCs seemed kind of limited. However, this new official remix fixes that in a big way. I mean, the thing is 16 minutes long, and features over ten rappers.

Really happy Shady saw fit to cast a wider net here, and I think the results speak for themselves.

Black Milk - If There's a Hell Below

If you loved the last Black Milk album, No Poison No Paradise, as much as Anthony did, then you should be very excited to hear that the Detroit hip hop artist already has a new project out titled If There's a Hell Below and can conveniently be streamed in full above via his Bandcamp. Check it!

Black Milk - "Scum" ft. Random Axe

If you remember my favorite albums of 2013 list, then you know the last Black Milk album made the cut. No Poison, No Paradise was easily one of the most conceptual and gritty releases in Milk's discog so far, so it's gonna be interesting to see him follow it up.

Surprisingly, the Detroit rapper-producer is doing that sooner rather than later, setting his next full-length release date for October 28th. The title of this upcoming album: If There's A Hell Below. This lead single from it features verses from Random Axe, which is the name of Black Milk's collaborative rap trio with Guilty Simpson and Sean Price. Each of them bring a verse to the table on this track, but the beat switches up every time a new MC hops on the song. While it kinda hurts the cohesion of "Scum," it certainly keeps things interesting. It's sort of like a medley, I suppose.

Price and Simpson are on their best lyrical behavior--even with lines like "I dislike the dude that said I dislike you." While it's not the best I've heard from Milk, it's got the potential to sound better in the context of an album.

Black Milk - "Cold Day"

More Black Milk already? It was only a few months ago that he dropped his fantastic album No Poison No Paradise, and he's already got a new EP due out next month, titled Glitches in the Break. Above you can stream the project's lead single "Cold Day," featuring a glitchy and grimy, but also impressively smooth instrumental backed by some nice female chorus vocals. And of course Black Milk's bars are freaking on-point. Check it!

Glitches in the Break is slated for release March 4 via Computer Ugly, and will be put on 12" for Record Store Day (April 19). Watch our review of No Poison No Paradise below:

Black Milk - No Poison No Paradise

Detroit rapper and producer Black Milk outright wows me with some creative, grimy beats set against some very personal stories on this latest full-length of his, No Poison No Paradise.

Black Milk & Danny Brown- "Black and Brown"

A new music video for the track "Black and Brown," which originally came off Black Milk's 2010 album, Album of the Year, but now it's been released once again with a new set of collaborative songs with Detroit MC Danny Brown. I reviewed the new EP right here last week. The EP's title is Black & Brown and it's out now via Fat Beats.
