The homie Maino has alot of things on tap…along with his upcoming album, Day After Tomorrow, he shot a movie that I’m looking forward to seeing (especially because his “Up Close and Personal” series was some of the most compelling rapper testimonial, last year). But last night, Maino sent me this new street single to follow up his “Bring It Back, DJ” song…

NMC Exclusive: Maino “Retaliate” (download link)

I like this….something Brooklyn about it, lol. (thanks to Maino and Josiah)

New Music: Ski Beatz feat. Jean Grae, Jay Electronica, Joell Ortiz, and Mos Def “Prowler 2″ (download link)

this s–t is hard. Jean Grae went bonkers : )

Thanks to Shakey/2DopeBoyz (and Meka/2DopeBoyz, the newest members of the ComplexNetwork family) and Legend/Onsmash.

The name of this song still kills me, lol.

the NMC guys uncovered an unfinished Rick Ross track that may feature a Kanye beat and will end up on Game’s RED album? That, as well as Rick Ross x Birdman, and the untagged version of Young Jeezy x Keyshia Cole….and the new Inspectah Deck video, all after the jump

As I mentioned in the earlier post, Gucci and DJ Holiday put together a sequel mixtape to the recent DJ Drama tape, this one called Burrrprint 2HD, dropping April 13 (with classically absurd cover art). Tonite, the first leak debuted on Atlanta radio as well as on Shade45, but here’s the CDQ.

New Music: Gucci Mane feat. Ludacris “Atlanta Zoo” (Dirty, CDQ) (thanks to the homie JGrand)

(Drake in the same Barbour jacket that I have, lol; Jamie Foxx with an unfortunate cut; and Trey Songz, who really doesn’t have anything to do with this post, but isn’t exactly tough on the eyes. *sorry, guys*)

Splash sent over this unearthed audio of Drake crooning the reference track to something he may have written for Jamie Foxx. Not if this was before or after they collaborated on “Digital Girl.”

NMC Exclusive: Drake’s reference track “Fall For Your Type” (Jamie Foxx) (download link)

Revisit: I absolutely love this song. And Drake would be crazy to give this to Jamie Foxx. He would sing it well but somehow cheesify it. (I know, I’m taking liberties with the Eng lang)

Oh, Gucci….there’s so much hilarity going on in this mixtape cover…let us count the ways. The bottle of rose, the flatscreen tv, the roast beef sammiches, the surf and the turf, with the snow peas, and the top half of the lobster on a side plate, the strawberries, and of course, the footwear. It looks like maybe a standard issue generic all-star….but in my mind’s eye, I’m imagining black tube socks and Fila rubber slides.

But what about the actual mixtape? Gucci and DJ Holiday have put together a sequel to Gucci and DJ Drama’s Burrprint mixtape from last fall….and seeing as how Gucci has been imprisoned in Fulton County lockup since around that time, I’m interested to hear what he contributed from behind bars….

more Gucci Mane Burrrprint 2HD details and when we might hear something on missinfo.tv *wink, wink*…

New Music: Raekwon “Flawless Crowns” (prod. Mondee) (download link)

Update: Raekwon “Flawless Crowns” (prod. Mondee) (download link)
Producer Mondee sent over his own mix of the track

Mikey: Why did I not hear this before? and why was this not included on OB4CL2? … those are the questions that have played over and over again in my head as I brought this track back 8 times. Yea, it’s not the most groundbreaking or super lyrical, but sometimes you just come across music that speaks directly to you. (Props Nation)
