The first track has leaked from the highly anticipated Blueprint 3; initial rumors suggested the album would be entirely produced by Timbaland - though Jay cleared this up and said he would be working mostly with ‘Ye - not surprising considering the amount of time the two have been spending together lately.

The track is entitled “Jockin’ Jay-Z” (something we’re seeing more and more of lately…) and was demoed by Kanye at one of his gigs; however, we now have the full track, so listen below and enjoy!

Baby Milo and Mario Tee

Fresh from Japanese heavyweight A Bathing Ape is this new range of shirts featuring a certain plumber who goes by the name of … Mario. Baby Milo and Mario have collaborated in the past on Bape’s custom Nintendo DS designs which turned out quite nicely, but we’ll wait until we see some better images.

Check out the Bape Spongebob collection…

Fresh new track from Lupe Fiasco; a remix of the classic “Dope Boys” joint from his mixtape The Coolest. There are features from DC rapper Wale (signed to Mark Ronsons label Allido Records) and Canadian emcee and producer Kardinal Offishall.

Pretty tight track, certainly takes us back to Lupe’s earlier days.

Over the past week three new tracks from West Coast heavyweight The Game surfaced; Toy Soldiers, Camera Phone (ft. Ne-Yo) and Superman. All three tracks are fairly strong and all but one of the tracks are confirmed to be on his third and final album, L.A.X, aka Los Angele’s Times.

First up is Toy Soldiers; the track is produced by an unknown producer and will not be on L.A.X.

Secondly we have Superman; the track is produced by super producer Just Blaze and will more than likely feature on L.A.X. (Is it just me, or is anyone else tired of Just’s production?)

And finally, we have Camera Phone, produced by production duo Cool & Dre.

Fresh new video/track from Kano, a remix of Tinchy Stryder’s Stryderman. Fire as usual.

Watch out for Kano’s third major album, 140 Grime St.

We just got word of this fresh tee featuring Weezy’s trademark tatoos; the shirt is based on the tupac version (also going by the name “Tatoo’d Up”) and I have to say, I’m digging this shirt. With The Carter 3 going Platinum first week, there’s no better time to rock a Lil’ Wayne shirt.

Shit, even for the haters, this is a pretty dope shirt.

Available now in three colors and sizes; click here for more information or to cop it.

Here we have a freshly leaked track from Game’s upcoming and final album, LAX. The track was produced by Cool & Dre, and we have to say, it’s fiyahhhh. One of the best Game tracks we’ve heard in recent times. Listen to the track below; hopefully, the rest of LAX will be this dope too (well, we’ve already heard another 2-3 off the album that weren’t bad, but we want better!)

Let us know what you think in the comments.

We all saw it coming, but Wayne’s number #1 album The Carter 3 has finally been knocked off the top spot by Nas’ latest album, Untitled.

The album shifted 187,078 copies in its debuting week, which does not compare to Lil’ Waynes million sold in the first week, but considering Nas had no commercial heavy hitting chart topping singles (bar Hero, but even that wasn’t dumbed down enough for chart dominance), we’d say he’s done pretty damn good as far as sales go.

Nas’ Untiteld was released officially on 15th July. You can read our thoughts on the album here.

Kano is no stranger to the UK hip-hop/grime scene, though he’s still not seen the huge success of the likes of Dizzee Rascal and The Streets - and we’re not sure why. Not only has his continuously brought us fire through his unique and ever changing flow, he’s improved on every one of his albums and mixtapes.

Now he’s back with 140 Grime Street, due to be dropping this September. Be on the lookout for this one; could it be Kano’s time to rise to the top?

Check out a two minute snippet of his upcoming single Hustler below. Let us know what you think in the comments!

Last night was Jay-Z’s Manchester show (part of his UK ROCnation tour) and we, living in Manchester, decided to attend. We’re so glad we did. Not only did Mark Ronson bring Rhymefest (who totally killed his set), Hov brought out non other than Kanye West.

It was only 8 months ago when Kanye brought out Jay - also in Manchester - so they either really like Manchester, or ‘Ye just decided to return the favor. Either way, it was amazing. Check the video out above.
