10.) Freddie Gibbs – “Fuckin’ Up the Count”
Freddie Gibbs refused to do it anyone else’s way but his own, and it is paying off tremendously. The “Fuckin’ Up The Count” video saw Gibbs in his classic state of handling street business, just make sure your count is on point and purchase ‘Shadow of a Doubt’ if you haven’t already.
9.) Jadakiss – “Baby” featuring Dyce Payne

3.) Chris Brown – “Hell Of A Night” featuring French Montana and Fetty Wap
Chris Brown dropped off a 34 track project that will take you awhile to digest, luckily for you we have already done so. “Hell Of A Night” is one of the quick standouts for its bounce and all around verses from all three of these hip hop heavy weights.

2.) Earl Swavey – “Bottles” featuring Nebula Swavey
‘Business Before Pleasure 2’ is set to drop any time now, meanwhile ES wit the BS drops off “Bottles” to hold us over.
The bass is banging on this one and both Earl and Nebula do their thing. Earl is holding it down for the L.A. area, as can be seen in his latest video’s, “What Would You Do” and “One Day”. Keep checking back here to see when ‘BBP2’ drops.
1.) Future – “Last Breath”
Easily the best track of the month from perhaps the best rapper of the year. Future set off the Creed franchise with a brand new theme song for the movie, this made the movie that much cooler, and gave it just the extra push it needed at the box office. Be on the look out for ‘Monster 2’, which Future has hinted at on Instgram in recent weeks.
