Sound FX – Ode To The Stars
Maybe I’m wrong, and The Sunset LP will come out before Detox, as this was slated to be a bonus track on the project. Shit, it better.

Moruf & Iman Omari – Euphoria (The Tape) (Mixtape)
Iman Omari is a member of the production crew THC, and the mind behind my current favorite song of the moment, “Lauren London” by OverDoz. On this one he links up with New Jersey’s Moruf for a project described as “good vibes all around.” Stream and link down bottom.

QuESt – Chase To Nowhere (Video)
Directed by Cristian Bernal
Here are a set of visuals for a cut that actually did not make QuESt’s Fear Not Failure project that is out now…
“Chase To Nowhere” is a record about getting lost in your ambitions, and realizing a lust for success can make you a slave/zombie to moments and achievements.

Double A.B. & Dub Sonata – Lord Knows What f. Roc Marciano (Video)
Pretty much every Roc Marciano appearance on a track will garner a slot at the dopehouse. Here’s hoping Reloaded drops this year. Anyways, Double A.B. and Dub Sonata will drop their album Media Showers on September 18th.
Nakim – Perrier & Rose f. Smoke DZA (Video)

Horseshoe Gang – Sunglasses & Advil
This cut is the lead single off the Gang’s EP #TrueStory, which drops September 11th. You can grab the maxi-single (dirty, clean and instrumental) on iTunes now.

Events: Trap Rap Fridays At DROM

For all those cheapskates out there (MekDot cares, if don’t nobody else care), get there before midnight and walk in for free. Should be a good way to start your weekend, and I hope to see some of you all there.
[The Tens] 10 Awful Posthumous Albums That Should Have Been Buried With The Artist
Sometimes, when an artist passes away his/her legacy should protected instead of neglected. Sure, their fans always want to hear music, but isn’t it significant to preserve what they have given us rather than have a bunch of half baked songs that the artist may not have wanted released to the public? With the announcement that Drake will be executive producing a posthumous Aaliyah album, we once again will have to brace ourselves for a patchwork album of unreleased vocals that perhaps should have remained unreleased. Better yet, shouldn’t Timbaland and Missy be the one to put these songs out? Not to mention that it’s kind of awkward for Drake to be taking pot shots at Chris Brown over a collaboration with a deceased singer. Who knows, Drake could do the project justice but it’s significant to note that the Haughton family is not supporting the release of this album. Nevertheless, TheWellVersed went back in time to gather all of the posthumous albums that should have been buried with the artist.
