New Music: Nicki Minaj, Drake, Big K.R.I.T., Obie Trice, Eminem, J. Cole, A$AP Rocky, & MORE!
Trying to keep pace with he never ending flood of new music isn’t easy, but it must be done! Nicki Minaj has been dropping music this week in anticipation for her new album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded which is set to release on April 2nd. Her newest single features Chris Brown and will surely be all over the radio soon enough. The other track she’s dropped features the one and only 2 Chainz! This track is much more raw and Nicki gets back to rapping. A much more “urban” song as the wikipedia page refers to the single. Regardless, I doubt you’ll be hearing this track on the radio anytime soon. These tracks are stream only but will be available on iTunes for purchase very soon.

New mixtape from one of the hottest younger MCs from the South right now. Big KRIT was a 2011 XXL Freshman Class member and spent last year dropping incredible mixtapes with smooth, laid back instrumentals and the lyrics to match. Listening to this really is a flashback to the country southern rapper greats of all-time. KRIT is truly a on the path towards being a true southern hip-hop legend and the anticipation for a debut full length LP grows even more. Until then, we enjoy the incredible original music KRIT continues to release to the fans for free. I don’t see any hip-hop fan having a problem with that at all.

Although this list doesn’t guarantee the success of these youngsters (Lil B, OJ da Juiceman) it does put them with likes of such successful acts as J. Cole, Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean, Nipsey Hussle (2010 Class members), Mac Miller, Yelawolf, Lil Twist, Kenderick Lamar, Diggy Simmons, Meek Mill, & Big KRIT (2011 Class members).
