“Let the suicide doors up. I threw suicides on the tour bus. I threw suicides on the private jet. You know what that mean? I’m fly to death” – Kanyeeeezy
Big Sean brings heat as well. 2 chainz sounded great on the song too.
Swerve.

First up, Miami’s own QuESt. I had heard a track or two from him last year. “If You Wanna” that caught my ear, but his other songs at the time just didn’t really stand out to me. Well, that’s changed now after his last mixtape ‘Fear Not Failure’. He brings out a new vibe and I’m a fan.
Check out the trailer below.
I’ve given this mixtape a couple listens to and it gets The DKA Life seal of approval. The production has alot of electronic influence, which is always welcome. A lot of the album…I mean mixtape, also has a Weeknd feel/sound production wise. However, its a bit more uplifting than the Weeknd. Definitely one of the best, complete projects I’ve heard thus far this year.
Hopefully I’ll get to see him live before I leave the 305. I look forward to hearing more of his work.
…I posted it first for a reason, go download it.
aaaand of course, I gotta give you the new Childish Gambino tracks that dropped (one’s a feature in his fellow producer/singer Ludovin’s new project) Looking forward to Donald’s mixtape….errr Mixtape EP dropping later this year.

Ludovin’s “Tricks” ft. Childish Gambino
Childish Gambino “Eat Your Vegetables”
Boy, this came outta no where. Funkmaster Flex & DJ Khaled dropped this lil Kanye joint today, “Theraflu”. So so so coooold Yeeezy. Kanye goin off on some dudes. Can’t wait for the new kicks to drop. My boy Philly is gonna have to school me on how to get them exclusive kicks.
…and stay tuned for GOOD Friday.
Yeah, I been slacking. Mac Miller dropped this mixtape, ‘Macadelic’, off 2 weeks ago I believe. I’ve enjoyed it. This mixtape is a bit more mature and is a solid project that’s worth the download.
Well, I think that’s all I got for now. I need to post more often, but I was busy working the ER and partying my ass off. I’m home now, but when I get back to Miami, expect a couple more posts. Definitely had an insane night at Liv that I’ll be blogging about.
That is all. DKA out.

Perhaps the greatest game to hit the internetz since Treadmillasaurus Rex (see below).
Ladies and gentlemen I present to you: Kanye Zone. A completely new and innovative interactive flashgame that far surpasses any and all internet technology itself. It is the quintessential reason the internet was created. Well, this and memes.
Enjoy friends.

It dropped at midnight….go get it now on iTunes. Hardcopy drops August 12th.
Stream the whole album HERE now via Hypebeast. I’ve been waiting for this album since 2004. This album is going to be on repeat for awhile. Sorry roommates. Can’t wait to see them live at the Bank Atlantic Center. I got my tickets, do you have yours? They go on sale in 5 minutes. Also, congrats to Ye and Hov for releasing the album before any leaks. Well done. Now if Ticketmaster would give me my code (free album with ticket purchase), I’d download the album….instead of streaming it. Murrrr.

–Per request of avid DKA Life reader RauchER!
Bendey had this mixtape on blast non-stop during spring break, and for good reason too. Sadly, I never took the time to give it its own post and share it with you, shame on me. Frank Ocean is/has already blown up with his single “Novacane”. He will also be featured on two tracks on Kanye and Jay-Z’s ‘Watch the Throne” album due this August. (I’m giddier than a school girl for that to drop)
1. frank ocean – street fighter (0:22)
2. frank ocean – strawberry swing (3:55)
3. frank ocean – novacane (5:02)
4. frank ocean – we all try (2:51)
5. frank ocean – bitches talkin’ (0:22)
6. frank ocean – songs for women (4:13)
7. frank ocean – lovecrimes (4:00)
8. frank ocean – goldeneye (0:18)
9. frank ocean – there will be tears (3:14)
10. frank ocean – swim good (4:16)
11. frank ocean – dust (2:33)
12. frank ocean – american wedding (7:00)
13. frank ocean – soul calibur (0:18)
14. frank ocean – nature feels (3:43)
I’m pretty sure he got signed and this is going to be a full-fledged album now. Its funny how record companies aren’t even needed today to be successful. But I’ll save that for a later time, in a post that will never exist because I’m too lazy.
If you wonderin’ who this guy is. Here’s his video for his single “Novacane”. You’ll hear it on the radio soon enough…if you haven’t already.
Here’s a newer track that dropped a couple weeks ago. Dreamkilla <–click to download
Enjoy.

backstage passes ftw.
Big Sean is one of the most talented, honest, humble G’s in the game. He’s from Detroit and if you haven’t heard of him where have you been…he’s on Kanye’s G.O.O.D. music label. I been followin’ him since I heard “Get’cha Some” on Kanye’s ‘Can’t Tell Me Nothing’ mixtape back in the summer of 2007. DKA Life readers already know this from when I cosigned him in April 2009. (Rauch I’m lookin at you).
Over the past two years, he’s blown up. He’s defined his own sound and has really stepped his game up lyrically (#1 right now imo). He’s created his own movement ‘Finally Famous’ and is starting to gain mainstream popularity and has gained the respect of fellow artists. No one deserves it more. Its his birthday today, so I figured it was appropriate to post his newest video “My Last” ft. Chris Breezy and introduce him to those of you who aren’t familiar yet. This song should be hittin radio airwaves w/in the month.
Learn more about Big Sean from this interview with Sway. (Seriously, watch it….you’re on my blog, you obviously have too much time on your hands)
Finally Famous the album droppin’ May 3rd (tentatively) …been waitin’ forever! I do it, boiiiiii.

Very inspiring to see the power of peaceful protest can still work. This movement gives hope to millions of others across the world. Goodluck Egypt.
