David: Justin Timberlake Expected To Start Recording A New Album This Summer

It's crazy to think that the last Justin Timberlake album, FutureSex/LoveSounds, was released 5 years ago. I'm excited to see what's to come from Justin Timberlake for his next album after his recent absence from the music scene to pursue his acting career. Hopefully he'll bring out that creativity from Timbaland much like he did on his last album. And hopefully everything will come out perfect unlike the 2004 Super Bowl wardrobe malfunction with Janet Jackson haha.

We'll be waiting for what's to come JT!

David: The Jet Age Of Tomorrow x The Journey To The 5th Echelon (Album Download)

As a DJ, conga player, piano player, and producer I'd like to start off by saying this is something on a whole new level. The musicianship put into the production of this album is absolutely amazing. This album sounds like an orchestra sent on a ride through space and welcomes every listener a seat on the journey. A little bit of hip-hop, electronic, jazz, and Latin music can be found in this album. But simply put this genre of music is just The Jet Age of Tomorrow. OFWGKTA

Appearances on the album by Hodgy Beats, Mike G, Wolf Haley, Vince Staples, Om'Mas Keith of Sa-Ra and some production by Tyler, the Creator and Left Brain. Download it below:

David: XV x Vizzy Zone (Hosted by DJ ill Will & DJ Rockstar) (Mixtape)

One of my favorite up and coming rappers in the game at the moment, XV, just released his new mixtape, Vizzy Zone, today. After a couple listens I can say Everybody's Nobody (his previous mixtape) was done to show he had arrived, but Vizzy Zone is just showing off. I'm very impressed with what XV brought on this mixtape and it makes me wonder even more where his spot was for the 2010 XXL Freshman list.
