Press play and zone out to Mega Ran’s new track “OutRun The Sun”, with production by K-Murdock. Using a sample from the classic game “Outrun” would probably conjure images of cruising in a Ferrari on a Floridan highway but not for Mega Ran and SkyBlew.

VIDEO: Black Milk – Story And Her
Black Milk releases the video for dope track “Story and Her”. This was one of many highlights on Black Milk’s last album, If There’s A Hell Below, and I’m glad there’s a video for it. As Black doesn’t do many videos, it comes as no surprise this one was quite minimalist in shot selection; the …

I especially love it when music is involved and the collaboration between producers Gifted The Great and French-based Blakesmith is a prime example. Their new EP, Nightfall, dropped …
