This week we keep Dilla's legacy alive with heat from his new album, Jay Stay Paid. We caught the buzz for the Torae and Marco Polo album Double Barrel a while ago, and now the DJ Concept and DJ Critical Hype both released a dope mixtape inspired by the rapper and producer from New York. Mick Boogie and U-God released dope mixtapes this week as well. Legendary group De La Soul collaborated with Nike for their new mix, which is a perfect addition to a playlist for fitness sessions. We are looking forward to Rik Cordero's new movie Inside A Change and the movie's soundtrack, which first leak is a song by J.A.M.E.S. WATTS. Have a good weekend.
