Joey Bada$$ has lived up to the hype so far, but can he dodge the sophomore curse? Find out for yourself after the jump…

Not exactly the innovative promotion of Yeezus or Born Sinner, Ace Hood gets us super excited for his upcoming Trials & Tribulations album by dropping the video for “We Outchea” featuring Lil Wayne.

The smooth-talking New Jersey native Da$H drops his new solo project, V.I.C.E.S., featuring Action Bronson, Ab-Soul, A$AP Ferg and more.

Nakim‘s “Mixtape” won’t be the best thing you’ll hear outta Harlem this year (A$AP Ferg already won that competition), but his abrasive, Dipset-esque style sets up Danny Brown for one of his best guest features of the year so far.

Revisiting last year’s The Stoned Immaculate, “Showroom” is definitely one of the standouts on Spitta’s major label debut album. Today, Curren$y and Cardo reunite to give their smooth smoking jam its due sequel. Roll that shit, light that sh — you already know the drill.
