Flying Lotus Ft. Kendrick Lamar | Never Catch Me
The spaced-out production guru Flying Lotus has lined up some big names to guest on his forthcoming album You’re Dead!, and we’ve already heard what happens when Herbie Hancock jumps on a track with him and Thundercat.
But the most immediately intriguing track on the You’re Dead! tracklist was always “Never Catch Me,” which unites FlyLo with Kendrick Lamar, the young king of his hometown’s rap world. “Never Catch Me” recently debuted on L.A. radio, and it’s a lush, dizzy, heady track.
Flying Lotus’ new album, You’re Dead!, is out October 7.

The Hypemen Podcast |The Lost Episodes: Jean Grae
Way…..way….way….back in the day (aka 2010), when the entire concept of a rap podcast was still in its infancy, there was the Hypemen podcast. Up until the last episode in July of 2011, the Rosenthal brothers and Jensen Karp delivered almost 50 episodes of incredibly nerdy, incredibly funny in-depth interviews, and we were there to lend a helping hand.
But then, like an Amazonian rainforest reclaiming a once great Mayan civilization, the Hypemen was lost to the fog of time. iTunes stopped carrying the podcast, we had to switch servers and our streams died, and just like that, some seriously great hip-hop interviews were digitally buried. Thankfully, I worked some server magic and managed to recover every episode, the guys were down to revive the podcast, and here we are.
Over the next few weeks I’ll be re-issueing some of the Hypemen’s best episodes. Up next, the one and only Jean Grae. This is an episode for the record books not only because it was the very first Hypemen podcast ever but, you know, Jean's fucking hilarious. We're talking BBQ-ing with Lil’ Mama, run-ins with Tyrese, Talib Kweli’s collaboration with Gucci Mane, Nicki Minaj as the ‘Highlander’ and much more.

BANKS | GODDESS
Banks announces debut album, Goddess, streams title track
Building on the momentum and success of her 2013 London EP, Los Angles songstress Banks is currently putting the final touches on her debut album Goddess for Harvest Records, due out on September 9th. Today she premiered its title track and lead single on BBC Radio 1xtra.
No stranger to shadowy netherworlds populated by sticky beats and even sultrier vocals — see the sweaty, Shlohmo-produced “Brain” — Banks weaves together yet another tantalizer for the late-night crowd with the help of London producer and SBTRKT affiliate Lil Silva. While it’s shrouded in dark atmospherics, the inspiration behind the song tells a more empowering story, one that according to Banks, permeates throughout most of her forthcoming LP.
“It’s so important for women to embrace themselves and feel like goddesses,” she said at a UK concert last month, right before debuting “Goddess” live. “The song’s called ‘Goddess’ because every woman is a f*cking goddess.” Amen to that. Listen in below (via NPR).
And catch Banks live on tour this spring:

BANNED RADIO w/ Trae Tha Truth & Tony Rock | Coming 5/20/2013
Catch Banned Radio every Monday @ 7pm PST / 10pm CST starting May 20th on Skee 24/7! Visit Skee247.com or download the app @ http://bit.ly/skeeapp
Trae Tha Truth & Tony Rock Present BANNED Radio on Skee 24/7
Trae Tha Truth, an undisputed veteran of Southern hip hop and staple of the Houston community, alongside superstar comedian Tony Rock are happy to announce the launch of BANNED Radio on the Skee 24/7 Radio Network. Broadcasting live from Hollywood, CA on Skee 24/7 Radio starting Monday, May 20th, 2013, BANNED Radio can be heard live every Monday at 10pm EST/7pm PST (with on demand versions available immediately after).
BANNED Radio has been created partially in response to Trae's ban from commercial radio. With Skee having an established radio platform drawn from his 10+ years of radio experience, the alignment of Trae's BANNED Radio and Skee's network was natural.
"I'm more than excited to bring BANNED Radio to the fans," says Trae. "To be able to be back on the air is incredible. It's going to be huge, believe that."
"When Trae first brought the idea to me, I couldn't turn it down," stated Tony. "I've known Trae for a long time and to finally be able to work with him and create something unique is unbelievable."
"In keeping true to Skee 24/7's vision of giving artists a voice and platform, I'm extremely excited to welcome Trae back to radio on his own terms," stated DJ Skee. "Alongside one of the funniest comedians in the business, the chemistry between Tony and Trae is undeniable, and I can't wait for people to hear BANNED."
Trae's influence in the industry is unlike any other. With his larger-than-life influence and popularity in the city of Houston and the state of Texas, Trae has worked with the biggest names in music, including T.I., Future, Rick Ross, Game, Estelle, and countless others. Trae's street buzz and industry presence caught the attention of T.I., who signed the Texas rapper to his Grand Hustle imprint in 2012.
Trae's philanthropic efforts also go unmatched. After years of serving his Houston community, Trae was awarded his own local holiday in Houston, now known as Trae Day, which is recognized every year in the city of Houston.
American actor and stand-up comic Tony Rock has made his own contributions to the entertainment industry. With his brash but honest look at everyday life in his humor stemming from his New York childhood, Tony is recognized in the industry as a premier stand-up comedian, being featured on many respected comedy series and programs, including Comedy Central Presents, Apollo Live, Chelsea Lately, and more.
Skee 24/7 has grown to be the premier standard definition of online radio, boasting an unparalleled lineup of programs and music unlike any other. Trae & Tony join the station as hosts alongside other influencers in the radio and music industry like Crooked I, Caroline D'Amore, DJ Fingaz, and more, with more personalities lined up in the near future. Special guests to the station have included Wiz Khalifa, T.I., Kendrick Lamar, Paul Oakenfold, DJ Drama, DJ Aero, Tyga, Far East Movement, DJ Carnage, Problem, Rocko, actor Jon Huertas, Trinidad James, Mac Miller, and many, many others.
You can listen to BANNED Radio by downloading the free Skee 24/7 app for your smartphone or visiting Skee247.com.
