Never Rest, Always Hustle
New visuals from the We Did It posse member directed by Lance Drake. “Buried” is featured on Shlomo’s upcoming album “Dark Red” which hits the streets April, 7th.
Salva continues to own souls with his latest drop, a remix of “Drinks On Us” originally released from Mike Will Made It and The Weekend. Salva added some real grime to this one as the track now really feels like it was meant for the street. I’m always happy to see more music from Salva and I know he’s doing those big records now (just like I said he would a year ago) so I’m glad it’s all happening for him now.
One of my favorite things about working with musicians and artists is watching them grow and progress as they continue to make more art. JULiA LEWIS is someone I have watched closely for a while and while I’ve always been a fan of what he has been making, this new track is just my jam right now! “Ginga” could be his most polished beat yet and as this beat/future scene continues to grow, it will be guys like JL who will push the envelope to give us that true new sound. Huge props on the EDM.com exclusive for this one and I can’t wait to hear the rest of the EP (that this is from) very soon.

Probably the best to ever really do this rap thing tom come out of the central valley, Fashawn is back with a new video that has me thinking about the 209 real hard. I know that’s in Merced and not Fresno but we pretty much grew up in the same hole. This is such a dope song and I wish Fash all the best as he continues to grind for his city and beyond.
If you’re going to be around LA at the end of the month, cop a ticket and catch Fashawn live at the echoplex on 2/26. I should be out in the crowd. Get Tickets here.
I just got my mac back! This means you can expect some more consistent posting from me for now. Last week there was a ton of great music on soundcloud including tracks from The Kount, Bobby Nourmand, Sango, Waldo, and many more.
This track is so vibey. I know everyone and their mother is fucking with that sample now but this is the second release from The Kount in a row where I have just been like “GOD DAMN”. Solid drums and a dope outro make this worth a replay or two. Stay tuned.
Today J Dilla would have been 41 years old and most likely still banging out the best instrumentals in hip hop. While we all hope he’s resting in paradise, it’s always nice to remember Dilla on his born day. This day has always been sort of a celebration online for all of Dillas fans, where people share their favorite tracks and talk about his impressive catalog of work. There will never be another J Dilla and we will never forget so be sure to pay your respect today to the one and only Jay Dee.
While your at it, check out this cool mixtape that Okayplayer posted earlier today.
Okayplayer is very pleased to bring the world premiere of the “Bangin Like A Dilla Instrumental” mix, an hour-long set of the choicest Pay Jay joints, all of them instrumental and many of them very rare. The mix was composed by an all-Miami crew of DJ Manuvers, DJ Sharpsound and LouiArson. The trio come from the Chocolate Sundays collective and put in brilliant work to honor J Dilla. The mix features The Pharcyde’s “Be Like That,” the Slum Village classic “Fall In Love,” Jay’s solo cut “So Far To Go,” and a rare remix of “Stakes Is High,” the greatest De La Soul track ever made. Before, after, and between these cuts you’ll hear rare micro-joints plucked from the legion of Dilla beat tapes that have been recovered. It’s a top-shelf mix of some of the best hip-hop ever made, and the perfect send on an early “happy birthday” to the greatest producer to ever do it. We miss you, Jay, and we’ll never stop treasuring to your gifts.
When homies combine, you get an awesome mix from a great artist hosted by a very legit blog. It has been awesome to personally watch Mija do her thing over the last year and I’m very happy to support her here at AlwaysHustle. You will see a lot more from Mija in 2015.

“For her ON DECK debut, Mija showcases what it is that’s so quickly elevated her above the hoi polloi – She’s as comfortable working through stylish house tunes as she is dropping hip-hop influenced bangers as she is rinsing tearout jams, and all in one set. This collection in particular starts off with some sleek numbers by Durante, Jack Beats and Worthy before weaving through Troyboi and her own (+ Ghastly) remix of Diplo and then ends up with an epic Skrillexian tearout via SPAG HEDDY. Oh, and the whole thing was mixed live.”
Waldo crushes another amazing beat, crafted by some of the very best doing this whole rap thing right now. Fortune, Gravez and Sango put a pulse to the soulful lyrics that Waldo consistently delivers to his tracks. I need as much of this as I can get.
You already know I’m pretty much a Kinda Neat super fan and Boogie is the man right now. So when these two things come together you get real entertainment. This dude’s flow is something else. I wish I had more time to work on hip hop because this is the kind of music I want to support.
