50 Cent – I Get It In

Another one from the vault, this comes from the unreleased 50/Dr.Dre combo.  I gotta admit I like 50 more and more now that pretty much all of hip hop has turned his back on him.  He gives hands down the best interviews, doesn’t go to jail every other year like most rappers, and is actively on his way to feed a billion people in Africa.  This track was supposed to come out on his last album, but because of the days of the week lyrics, ” Sunday, Monday, Tuesday…,” which were also out in a Black Eyed Peas song at the time, he decided to shelve the project and never release it.  I love the simple drums and the orchestra hit, and this is a great song to have on the ipod at the gym.  Take a listen.

Jeremih ft. Drake – I Get Lonely Too

We at AOS try to bring you only quality music, sub par just doesn’t cut it around here.  Lately we have been having a hard time finding new music deserving of our site.  So to keep your ears busy with new tracks i have decided to post some from the vault.  These are tracks that never got released and should be new to most of our visitors.  The first of these tracks is “I Get Lonely Too.”  This track was originally planned for Drake’s R&B mixtape that was supposed to be released after, Thank Me Later came out.  Unfortunately for his fans, Drake (aka his record label) decided to shop around these tracks to other artists.  Jeremih,  took on the track, added his vocals, and here is the result.  I added the original for comparison.  I actually dig them both, hear it for yourself.

Silversun Pickups – Seasick

The Silversun Pickups recently released a new vinyl containing 3 “new” tracks as their contribution to the Black Friday festivities.  I say “new” because these are tracks that were recorded back in 2009 when their last LP Swoon dropped however they never saw the light of day.  The Southern California rockers are currently working on their 3rd album, which is set to release in Spring 2012.

Jhameel – Waves

This guy’s voice will blow you away, definitely don’t judge a book by its cover on this one. This guy is a musical prodigy producing as well as playing every instrument himself.  He was on his way to the Army when his concerns about our presence in the Middle East made him change his mind and focus solely on music, and boy are we lucky he did.  Check out his website for free downloads: www.jhameel.com

Mike Posner – Looks Like Sex

Dumb lyrics aside, Mike Posner is really talented.  After getting a preview on his mixtape, we now have the full version of his first single, “Looks Like Sex.”  I gotta give him credit for his production as well as his vocals, he has a very unique sound, and this song was made to be a radio hit.  Check it out.

Florence + the Machine – Take Care (Drake Cover)

Is there anything this woman can’t do?  Besides the originality and creativity Florence Welch and company bring to the table, she has a killer, awe inspiring voice.  That voice which is seemingly being sampled everywhere in hip hop and electronic music these days, has now flipped the script. Here on BBC radio, she puts her own spin on the title track of Drake’s new album, Take Care, featuring Rihanna and produced by Jaime XX.  Original track is posted below, but both versions are completely addicting.

Justice – Ohio

Off of Justice’s latest album, “Ohio,” is full of Beatlesque “Gnik Nus,” vocals and an addictive electronic beat.  Lupe then sampled the beat for his new mixtape, previously posted on AOS, in which he raps about his favorite 90’s urban drama movies.  Check out both below. But first check out this bad ass picture of the group, Justice. Yeah thats right, looks like these dudes got a great deal on some leather jackets and shades on Black Friday.  So they decided to rock them out in a cool B&W pic probably taken at Sears. But I totally caught the dude in the back covering up his Cats, the musical t-shirt.  Never the less, these guys have put together a great album.

Lupe Fiasco – The End of Time

Lupe Fiasco is back with a new mixtape.  It’s great how the music industry has evolved; artists are in more creative control and can release material to spark interest for their actual album.  Also the artist does not have to pay royalties on songs sampled for mixtape material, giving them complete freedom.  Here, Lupe samples M83’s “Midnight City.”  This actually works quite well, d/l Friend of the People: I Fight Evil now!

Chris Brown – First 48

“Man all these cameras are bananas…,”  Coming off a great performance at the American Music Awards, I decided to post a song off Breezy’s latest mixtape,  Boy In Detention.  After the success of his last mixtape, which first gave us his singles, “Deuces,” and “No Bullshit,” Chris decides to take a stab at his MC skills, and they aren’t half bad.  “First 48,” is the opening track and features  Mr. Brown rapping over a   looped drum beat and horns.  I gotta be honest, this is a great track to throw on your iPod when you go for a run.  I am also re posting the R&B highlight from the release which had been previously posted on AOS, “Leave the Club.”  Click the title to download the mixtape.  I have also managed to find the below pic from his Fresh Prince of Bel Air phase.
