Sometimes, ignorance is bliss, and this is one of those times. Yung Satori’s “Comin In” is a purely autotuned trap jam, and it makes no excuses. However, Satori does trap well, and complete with a catchy hook, “Comin In” holds its own as a single. Produced by Maajei Vu, there’s plenty to both sing along and bounce around to. Satori

I know that you’ve seen Brett Favre’s name in a headline. He is not coming out of retirement (again). Don’t worry. However, the latest from Chicago’s Warhol.ss is a touchdown in the offseason for sure. With a tough beat from producers CaptainCrunch & Jay$plash, everything about this track goes hard. There’s simply no other way to describe it. Turn up

No matter what time of day you read this, it’s officially time to turn up with the latest from Milwaukee’s 40ozDai. “Bring Me Down”, produced by LeanBeatz, is definitely made for the trap, and features a plethora of autotune. However, it’s very much worthy of being a jam, with a flow that you can nod your head to. The hook

Milwaukee artist Cezar has been on our radar for quite some time. Over the past few years, we’ve seen him evolve as an artist, and his latest visuals for “Weight” might be some of his strongest work yet. Set to a trap-style beat, Cezar talks his talk with ease, doing what he does best. The Eli Buie-directed video has kind
Read moreHere’s a fun fact; if you type in “trap remix” on SoundCloud, you get entirely way too many obscure results. Nevertheless, I spent an entire day of my life consuming and critiquing said trap remixes, and have compiled some of my favorites here for you. It should be noted that I tended to favor the obscure, as there’s many other
Read moreThis week is another unique week for the mixtape, with the first appearance of any country music via Keith Urban. I attribute that to trip to Racine earlier in the week.

Read moreLook… I have a confession to make, and it’s not a cool one by any means. I grew up on (and still am cool listening to) Rod Stewart. I’ve been to multiple concerts, and he was actually my first concert when I was seven years old. We were in the third row at the Bradley Center. There’s pictures somewhere. So,
Read moreIn the “things that randomly fell onto my radar” file for this week, iSHi released a new mixtape, and it’s a helluva collection of songs.

Led by single “Push It” featuring Pusha T, a Raekwon

Read moreMick Jenkins keeps generating his buzz out of Chicago today, as he unleashed the new track “Time”. Armed with a trap beat, Mick goes off on this one, with some lyrics about his hometown amongst other things.

Read moreProzpect may be a name to place on your hip hop radar. Just before the end of January, he dropped his latest EP, “Parallax”. The whole project is full of smoothed out tracks that Prozpect gets to finesse his way through, and he does so with ease. With heavy trap influences, the production is full of bass-heavy beats with manic
Read moreIt seems like nobody is playing around in 2015, and leading the charge is Pizzle. His latest appearance is a feature on this track from Johnny Juliano’s upcoming album “Trapsylvania”. With a super laid back trap beat from Johnny Juliano and help from Cardo, both emcees show off their contrasting styles. Juliano keeps things smooth, riding the beat with a
Read morePeople of the internet haven’t been know for being the most intelligent group, but that doesn’t mean artists can’t reap the benefits. Playing off the hype that people didn’t know who Paul McCartney is, Pegboard Nerds saw the potential for a massive trap hit. By sampling Kanye West’s, “Diamonds from Sierra Leone” and Jennifer Lawrence’s part in “The Hanging Tree”
Read moreMore footage from this past weekend at Cactus Club, this time in the form of emcee J. Todd. If there’s ever been a competition for a Milwaukee anthem, this song definitely makes a strong case to be at the top. With one of the hardest beats in recent years, and a hook that you can’t help but like, this is
Read moreThe internet is pretty powerful. If it wasn’t for it, well.. I mean… you’d probably be outside doing useful things instead of reading this. However, in the case of Diplo, the Internet is almost a lifeblood. With the rapid spread of his name, as well as his Mad Decent label as a whole, things get lost in the shuffle. That
Read moreM.I.A. is back, this time with another video that she directed herself. You may recognize “Double Bubble Trouble” as that catchy M.I.A. sounding song from a liquor commercial, but after the part that airs in the commercial, it’s an all out trap fest, with the last part of the song basically erupting into an audio seizure. The video is also
Read moreOne of the most prominent names in electro house music, Steve Aoki, has teamed up with Waka Flocka Flame for “Rage The Night Away”, a mini rager that times out under 5 minutes. That’s all you need though, as Aoki’s high energy mix and Waka Flocka’s everyday energy combine for an all out party on the track. Stream this below,
Read moreWith the weather warming up, expect the club bangers to come out in full force in the coming weeks. This is definitely one of them. Childish Gambino adds a much more mature era of cockiness than we’re used to seeing from him, and a big, echo-y trap beat is pretty much all you’ll need to succeed this summer. This is
Read moreArmed with a bass heavy beat, and the addition of light-hearted vocals from Gessaffelstein, A$AP Rocky unleashed “In Distress”. All in all the track is a head nodder, for sure. It was worth a couple listens in my book. But that’s just me. Stream “In Distress” below:
