MTV’s new documentary following Cory Gunz. In this episode he struggles with which label to sign to, and which management company to go to. As Nick Cannon is the executive producer, the show is pretty biased toward him, and it doesn’t seem like Young Money have anything to do with it. It’s interesting enough though, especially if you are a fan of Cory already…

The track from Tinie Tempah’s DisCovery album gets a remix courtesy of Travis Barker for a Lucozade commercial (which you’ve probably seen by now). Due to popular demand the full track has now been released, and can be purchased from Itunes…

Okayplayer just premiered this video for Jay Elect’s “Dymethyltryptamine” which was shot by Jason Goldwatch in Nepal back in 2009. This cut of the video isn’t approved by Jay himeslf, who put out his own version, which like the song, he says is based on a dream. You can check out Jay’s version after the jump…

Unexpectedly, Mac Lethal dropped his latest project, North Korean BBQ tonight, featuring 13 original tracks including production from the likes of Seven, The Inkredibles, DJ Khalil and Mac Lethal himself.

It was released along with the following statement…

North Korean BBQ is for old souls. People 30+ (figuratively and literally.)

The title, however, is a reminder for me and all of us, that no matter how hard life can seem. We are all very fortunate people to live where we live. In Kansas City, when we get lonely or depressed, we go gorge ourselves on delicious, molasses-based BBQ. In North Korea, they don’t get lonely or depressed. They don’t choose feelings or thoughts. North Koreans don’t eat BBQ. They eat octopus skin and fried white corn. I was looking through audio clips from old North Korean documentaries to mix in with the music, but honestly, I felt like I was being lighthearted about their situation, which is greatly serious.

I must remind you of something, though: THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL PIECE OF MUSIC. NO!

This is NOT a political statement, but an examination on the self-entitlement we feel while bathing in our own excess and drama. I’m sorry your boyfriend broke up with you, but treasure the good times you did have. Bump this mixtape as a way to help push those negative, volatile emotions out, BUT…always remember that below the surface, life is truly a beautiful, pleasant work of art for some of us. Unfortunately it takes looking at other people’s situations to realize that sometimes.

The full version of the track from Tyler’s upcoming Goblin album somehow appears as the backdrop to this yo-yoing video. Not sure how he got it, but if you want to listen, check it out…

Preview clip for the intense visuals which Kendrick is set to drop for the lead single from #Section80, which is probably going to be one of the best projects out this year…

Since everyone’s been making a fuss over today’s Royal Wedding, I thought it would be appropriate to post this new freestyle on the topic, courtesy of Stig Of The Dump, and beatboxer Killa Kela…

More madness from Thurnis Haley as he reminisces a time when a man grabbed his golf balls… Goblin drops on the 10th of May…

Those familiar with Hollywood FLOSS will know that when putting out new music he always looks to be a little more innovative than simply putting out a mixtape. For his latest project, Stray Shots Vol.1 (presented by TheHipHopEffect) he has chosen to release random tracks every few days (hence the title) which will eventually be collected as a complete tape.

Here are the first three tracks that have been released…
