After dropping the haunting “Days” single on TreeJTV’s Baum Blvd mixtape, Mac Miller gets back in the swing of things with the mellow, yet hard-hitting, “Boo! (Interlude)”. Over deep and hypnotizing production courtesy of ClockworkDJ, Mac gets into his relentless grind that earned him a reported $10 million deal with Warner Bros Records last year and being overlooked, yet overbooked, followed by a taunting and well-placed “Boo!” Get into the vibe below.

Common released the first single off his upcoming album The Dreamer, The Believer today. “Ghetto Dreams” features Nas‘ cold flow and production by the illest No I.D.

“I decided to write about ghetto dreams just in a way that was raw,” Common told MTV News. “I almost approached it like I was a character because I don’t smoke cigarettes and blah, blah, blah. But I still was talking abut those things ’cause it’s like, if I step in the shoes of myself and my other friends and people that just dream about higher things coming from a tougher place. I told it in respect to the relationship I got with my lady, it’s ill. It’s not a love song or none of that; it’s just raw. It’s ill lyrics man, I’m telling you.”

Common recently announced his signing with Warner Bros. Records and we can expect his 9th studio album this fall.

Best believe this poet is back to kill it.
