Since Adian Coker made his tongue-twisting debut with “Cream”, we’ve been waiting with baited breath for his follow-up. Today, he finally makes his return, channeling his inner demons on the freshly-minted “Suicide Drive”. The hard-hitting joint finds the South London rapper furiously rhyming in typically grand fashion with enough lyrical ammunition to overload his own slinking electronic, synth-bass boardwork. The accompanying video displays Adian’s unique artistry while boasting futuristic elements with video game-inspired sequences, multi-coloured effects and daunting imagery. Watch below.

Critical note: he uses Gwen Stefani as a verb.

Snoop Dogg is on a different streak (see: Snoop Lion). He recently released the video for “Knocc ’em Down,” his track off the upcoming and long-awaited game, Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Snoop probably isn’t the best Tekken player, but trash-talking is a big part of fighting games and he definitely has that down. Peep his game below.

Lana Del Rey– yes, the girl with those strangely beautiful lips– releases her first video since her instant hit Video Games (the video of which she in fact directed). Thoughts? I just like watching her. Curious to see how her newfound fame is going to develop.
