Black Milk: "Keep Going"

Black Milk had one of the albums of the year in 2008 with Tronic, and now he's returning in 2010 with Album of the Year. He explained the album's interesting title in his vlog that I posted on Wednesday. "Keep Going" is Black Milk's self-produced lead single from the album. It's about everything you would expect: chopped samples, boastful lyrics, and insane drum work.

Kanye West: "Good Life" (Live)

Sorry about the multitude of consecutive posts, they just keep popping up on YouTube. From now on, I'll just compile them all in this post.

Kanye West Raps New Verse (Live)

From the same concert as the previous post. You know, Kanye can sound preachy when he talks about not needing fame and fortune. But, though I think he's a little addicted to the spotlight at times, I tend to believe him more often than not.

Kanye West: "I'm So Appalled" (Live)

Kanye make a surprise entrance at a Big Sean and Kid Cudi show in Los Angeles to perform "I'm So Appalled." He also announces that he's hitting the studio on January 1, presumably to start working on a new album.

Royce Da 5'9": "Psycho Flow"

Royce just released this first leak from his upcoming Bar Exam 3 mixtape via Twitter last night. Naturally, his flow in on point.

Illogic: "Graveyard" (Prod. Ill Poetic)

Via Illogic:

Hey, hope everyone is having a nice holiday experience. Just wanted to round out the end of the year with a lost Illogic song from the Diabolical Fun sessions: "Graveyard" (prod. by ill poetic) is an unreleased song that didn't make the final version of Illogic's Diabolical Fun (released earlier this year). The song originally closed out the album, but was cut because it just seemed a little too dark for the overall feel of the record (the song sounds like it looks outside). We figured we'd give something away for free for the holidays to remind people of Illogic's comeback LP as well as his current Greenhouse EP with Blueprint.
