It is most definitely Yeezy Season. Kanye West did things a little differently, in true Kanye fashion, and had the world reveal of his new song ‘New Slaves’ projected onto walls in 66 locations around the world. The song, dope. The reveal, dope. He will more than likely perform this song on SNL today, and it seems the June 18 date is in fact the release date for his next album titled ‘Yeezus.’ 2013 stays killing it.

Fresh on the scene and hailing from LA LA Land, Banks has released a video for her song ‘Fall Over.’ Her voice suggests a similarity to Florence, who we already know is incredible, and this song is very very nice, and the video… Pretty nice too.

So out of absolutely nowhere, the illusive Jai Paul drops a complete album on bandcamp, where you can stream the whole thing. His production style is definitely recognizable, and both BTSTU and Jasmine are both on this release. ~~Listen/purchase Jai Paul by Jai Paul here.~~

Update! So according to Jai Paul’s Twitter these demo’s were not uploaded by him and has urged people not to buy. Wow. Maybe someone is trying to force his hand? the music is dope regardless and is in fact Jai Paul but obviously not released the way he wanted. The plot thickens…

Easily one of my favorite songs to come out in recent years by one of my favorite artists, Frank Ocean’s ‘Lost’ has been the ‘tour video/on the road’ visual treatment, which makes perfect sense given the songs subject matter. All Frank has said on his Tumblr about this video is ‘Summer 2012’ so its safe to assume this is where the footage is from. Anything this guy does is incredible, so you are going to want to hit play regardless…

Lucky for us down here in Australia, we got the new Major Lazer album ‘Free The Universe before anyone else in the world, and to coincide with that release Diplo and fam dropped the video for “Watch Out For This (Bumaye)” feat Busy Signal, The Flexican & FS Green. Set on the streets of Jamaica, we get to see some dope dancing, dope clothing and dope riddems. My advice is if Major Lazer ever come through your city, get there.

Out of nowhere Jay-Z drop a track titled “Open Letter” produced by Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. Hov uses this song to address the recent talk of his and Bey Bey’s trip to Cuba and his decision to sell his share of the Brooklyn Nets. A nice little sample, now hit us with the LP.

Tyler The Creator - Ifhy feat. Pharrell:

Tyler enlists the help of his idol (and mine) Pharrell for a cut off his new album ‘Wolf.’ The track ‘Ifhy’ showcases Sk8brd singing the hook which has a very ‘In Search Of…’ feel to it, which of course has been an inspiration to Tyler’s music. Looks like DJ Green got the leak first. Click the photo to DL.

Who knows how long this will stay up on YouTube for, but Robin Thicke just released the ‘UNRATED’ video for his new single ‘Blurred Lines’ featuring the same models, this time with nothing on… I guess it’s making sense why the guys seemed so happy in the first version. Enjoy.

Bonobo is back and has created some beautiful soundscapes on his new album ‘The North Borders’ which drops April 1st. He has managed to have his music blessed by the one and only Erykah Badu on the track ‘Heaven For The Sinner.’ This album is going to be on heavy heavy rotation in the Lost In Dopeness atmosphere for quite a while it seems. Press play, put your feet up, and breathe in…

Robin Thicke debuts his new single and video at the same damn time with the help of T.I and Sk8board P on ‘Blurred Lines.’ The playful clip matches the classic Pharrell percussion and chords, with Mr. Thicke preserving the ‘Gentleman’s R’n’B’ while being surrounded by barely dressed models. Dope all around.

After Shlohmo put his spin on Jeremih’s ‘Fuck U All The Time’ the two hooked up the studio through adidas originals “Songs from Scratch” series. The result is ‘Bo Peep (Do U Right).’ This has Shlohmo’s signature thumbprint all over it, dark, trapped out R’n’B. Here’s hoping to more collabs between these two.

Another reason why SoundCloud is one of my favorite websites, I come across completely dope remixes such as the G.O.O.D Music family jam ‘Mercy’ by Canadian producer ‘SHASH’U.’ An awesome higher tempo mix with some thumping drums. Enjoy.
