ISWHAT - "Dig"
 
ISHWAT connects Hip Hop with Jazz, Rock and Soul music to create a unique hybrid sound.  This amazing touring band is currently setting up the release of their new album Big Appetite with a full slate of shows through Europe and the US.   The sound is big and crisp with Grammy nominated engineers on the boards and world class musicians making the music.  This is dope Hip Hop and definitely worth checking out.  Check out more on the group at www.iswhat-flavor.com

 
 
B.o.B. feat. Bruno Mars - "Nothin' On You" - Atlantic Records
 
While many DJs have been talking about this for a few weeks it's now an official go and a huge priority.  A very dope new single from B.o.B. that many have said follows in the footsteps of Lupe Fiasco's "Superstar".  This is already off to a huge start in the clubs, radio, web and beyond.  Since breaking into the scene at age 17 B.o.B. has always been tapped as an artist to watch.  His debut single in 2006 "Haters Everywhere" was extremely well received and set the amazing framework for the new project to take him over the top.  Check out more on B.o.B. at www.myspace.com/bobatl.
 
 
Reflection Eternal feat. J. Cole, Jay Electronica & Mos Def - "Just Begun"
 
This incredible collaborative effort is the new single from the forthcoming Reflection Eternal album Revolutions Per Minute.  Reflection Eternal, the groundbreaking duo of rapper Talib Kweli and producer Hi-Tek, collaborated on late 1990s singles and on the 1998 Black Star album with Mos Def before releasing their eponymous landmark album in 2000. Since then, they have each worked on solo projects and are now back again for a genuine reunion of dope music!
  
 
Spleen & DJ Mad Habits feat. Redman - "Best To Do It"
 
The duo, based in France, have been busy touring throughout Europe and opening up for some of the biggest names in Hip Hop for years.  This is the new dope single and will be live now on iTunes via Soulspazm Digital: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/best-to-do-it-feat-redman-ready-roc/id346704080.

 

Shaun Boothe - "Poor Boy"
 
Fresh off the success of the Unauthorized series, Shaun Boothe delivers dope new music for 2010.  This is his official single and the first from the forthcoming album Hip Hop in 3D.  Shaun is well positioned to capitalize off the strong buzz and equity he has built worldwide in the radio community.  Hailing from Toronto, this record from Shaun is already buzzing throughout Canada.  Check out the video trailer at: www.youtube.com/shaunboothe.

Lupe Fiasco - "I'm Beamin" - Atlantic Records
 
The Chicago MC is back with the lead single from the new and forthcoming album Lasers.  "I'm Beamin" is produced by the Neptunes and hits iTunes on 1/26.   By now, everyone should be familiar with the Lupe Fiasco story.  A breath of fresh air in today's climate, Lupe has two critically acclaimed albums under his belt including Food & Liquor and The Cool.  The man behind hit singles like "Kick Push" and "Superstar" is back for round 3. 
 
The INSTRUMENTAL and DIRTY version are available on the Foundation site.
