[Hip-Hop] Kreayshawn – Twerkin!!! (ft. Diplo & Sissy Nobby)

The corky Bay Area native, Kreayshawn, burst onto the hip-hop scene with her massive single “Gucci Gucci” back in 2011. Since then, she has expanded her following and received cosigns from a variety of artists all the while continuing her strange, entertaining evolution. With a stream-of-consciousness flow and a truly creative style, Kreayshawn is sure to catch your attention at the very least.

On her most recent single, Kreay teams up with super-producer Diplo and New Orleans bounce music mainstay Sissy Nobby for a track worthy of its name. Diplo, who has a history of spotting talent, creates a bouncy, bass-injected instrumental and gets behind the mic for a warped, but addictive, chorus. Kreay delivers with her signature steez and Sissy gives us a taste of her unique vocals as well. Stream this high-energy cut below, shake your rompus and look out for Kreayshawn’s debut album, Something About Kreay, out September 18th via Columbia Records.

[Remix] No Doubt – Settle Down (Major Lazer Remix)

When No Doubt announced their return to the studio earlier this year, fans were more than excited. After an 11-year hiatus, the classic group dropped their new single but didn’t maintain the same hype by the mediocrity of the reggae influenced “Settle Down”. Fortunately, during their break, mega-producer Diplo became a star in the music industry along with his Switch-collabo project, Major Lazer. Taking the long-awaited track and adding the proper heavy drums, some sirens, synthesized sounds and upping the tempo while still keeping Gwen Stefani’s iconic voice intact, Major Lazer did what it does best and accomplished making the remix better than the original. This dancehall track is great and returns the group to their genre-crossing routes that made their 2001 Rock Steady a classic.

No Doubt’s new album Push and Shove arrives September 25th via Interscope Records. Major Lazer’s Free the Universe drops November 6th.

[Hip-Hop/Reggae] Snoop Lion – La La La (Prod. Diplo & Ariel Rechtshaid)

Snoop Lion, aka Snoop Dogg, makes an interesting move trying his hand at a straight reggae track. I feel like he pulls it off alright, but what really stood out to me was the Diplo production. Always versatile, the Philly-based artist displays his electronic, islandy Major Lazer sound on this one. Few producers can match the minimal, but incredibly intricate style of Diplo. Along with this single, Snoop Lion announces his upcoming reggae LP, Reincarnated. The Doggfather sending good vibrations at a time when we could all use some.

[Moombah] Dillon Francis & Diplo ft. Porter Robinson – Change (5 & A Dime Bootleg)

Take some of the hottest tracks from 3 of today’s hottest producers, mash them up, and what do you get? Normally, absolute garbage. Sometimes things just aren’t meant to go together. Not the case for the newest bootleg by Philly producer 5 & A Dime. Dillon Francis, Diplo, and Porter Robinson all have such unique and eclectic styles, but somehow 5 & A Dime manages to capture the individuality of each artist while seamlessly blending them into one massive Moombah banger. #BASSMOB

[Electronic/R&B Remix] Star Slinger feat. Reggie B- Dumbin (Diplo Remix)


A little while back, Star Slinger released his debut single featuring R&B act Reggie B. The original “Dumbin'” had somewhat of a tropical vibe, that I personally wasn’t into. Superproducer Diplo got his hands on the track, adding spacey synths and hard kick drums to entirely transform “Dumbin” into dance jam for the late night bump and grind. Diplo has the ability to remix a song and make it better than the original. That’s why he is probably the best producer out there right now.
