The new Amy Winehouse film is coming this summer.



The team behind award-winning documentary Senna have returned with a new through-the-lense look at Amy Winehouse’s life.

Told in the late singer’s own words with extensive unseen archival footage and previously unheard tracks, the documentary is set to tell one of the most tragic stories of the music industry in the 21st century.

The film follows the talented singer from her rise to fame to the personal difficulties she suffered following her problems with addiction that led to her death.

A press release for the film states: “Her huge success, however, resulted in relentless and invasive media attention, which coupled with Amy’s troubled relationships and precarious lifestyle, saw her life tragically begin to unravel.”

Winehouse died from alcohol poisoning in July 2011 at the age of 27.

The singer won five Grammy Awards for her second album Back to Black, which broke records at the time of her death to become the UK’s best-selling album of the 21st century.

AMY will be released in the UK on 3 July.

Stalley | One For The $



From their upcoming #GiveTheSummerSome mixtape, DJ S.WHiT and DJBase unveil a new track by Stalley called “One For The $.”

The record has a undeniable bounce and is packaged around a Lil Wayne sample that chants, “One for the money, two for the show/ Now clap your hands if you gotta a bankroll.” The MMG rapper delivers verses that are reflective of his life and current successes using his patented off–kilter flow.

Credit the production to Block Beattaz, who sampled Weezy’s “Got Money.”

“One For The $” is the second Stalley release of recent weeks. The last was a proper visual for “Feel The Bass” from his Honest Cowboy project.

M.I.A. | Gold



Dutch DJ duo the Partysquad contributed production to M.I.A.’s Matangi, and now they’ve aligned again for a song on The Partysquad Summer Mixtape 2014. It’s a typically noisy M.I.A. track that wouldn’t have sounded out of place on Kala, with a beat that remains spacious despite busy drum programming and various agitated blasts of sound. It almost reminds me of “Turn Down For What,” though the recent radio hit Maya interpolates here is Sage The Gemini’s “Gas Pedal.” Get into it below.

PARTYNEXTDOOR Announces New LP | Debuts Drake-Assisted Song

by Chris Thomas/HipHopWired



Unlike last year, summer 2014 is pretty wide open as far as album releases are concerned. Because the music game is chess, not checkers, OVO Sound all but saw July for the taking.

Following news of Majid Jordan’s upcoming A Place Like This EP, PARTYNEXTDOOR returns with the announcement of PARTYNEXTDOOR TWO, the proper follow-up to his 2013 debut. The Mississauga-bred singer-songwriter and producer is a pretty elusive figure compared to OVO founder Drake. But the ambiguity has left fans to latch onto his music and nothing else, so expect them to clamor for PARTY’s new body of work.

Clocking in at 12 cuts, including the previously released songs, “Her Way” and “Muse.” PARTYNEXTDOOR TWO, due July 29, is available for pre-order via iTunes. Fans who do so will receive “Her Way” and a cut featuring Drizzy called “Recognize.”

Stream the song below. Find the artwork and tracklist there as well.



1. East Liberty
2. SLS
3. Sex on the Beach
4. Her Way
5. Belong to the City
6. Grown Woman
7. FWU
8. Recognize (Feat. Drake)
9. Options
10. Thirsty
11. Bout It
12. Muse

Homeboy Sandman | Atlantis | prod. Blu

Homeboy Sandman and Blu hooking up on a track, in any capacity, is a win for hip-hop.

Coming off of the release of his collabo EP with Paul White, White Sands, Homeboy Sandman is now gearing up to release a full-length album in the fall. Title, producers, and track list TBD, but Boy Sand apparently has been working on a few dozen tracks this year, and this joint with Blu, “Atlantis,” is one of them – and the best of the batch you’ll hear on that LP.

Take a trip under the sea with Sandman, below, and take a trip to the livest venue in your city to see the man live on tour, this spring (dates below).What do you think?

Donte Peace | Summer of 1997

*Summer of 1997* can be considered a project or a short documentary or even a time capture of a specific era that embodies Donte Peace as the person he stands to be this very day. Although Donte Peace shows a handful of styles and personalities throughout his short journey, he's overly inspired from moments & memories and tries his best to capture and make caption through jazzy MaxTrax sounds and smooth B Roc samples. *Summer of 1997* is simply (as I like to call it) BBQ music for calm days,Happy Hip Hop with easy on the ear melodies. Don't call it an EP nor a Mixtape,be sure to call it an independent album.
