The track, Never Been, is taken from his hugely popular Kush & Orange Juice mixtape and features, unsurprisingly for Wiz, weed. It’s a belting tune and has hot women in not-very-much-at-all so, y’know, press play and enjoy it.

Tonight at 10PM EDT (that’s 3AM for us here in the UK) Arcade Fire are set to stream their live show at Madison Square Garden for all to see on their Youtube VEVO Channel.
If this news isn’t awesome enough for you yet then be prepared to want to stay up very late (or get up very early) tonight as it was confirmed last month that eccentric filmmaking genius Terry Gilliam (transatlantic Monty Python activist and director of Brazil and 12 Monkeys) will be directing the show, whatever that actually means. Even he himself isn’t too sure…
‘I’m trying to find out what this fucking thing is‘ admitted the director only yesterday, one day before showtime.
Either way, with the two creative forces somehow merged together we are certainly in store for something very special. Be sure to tune in tonight, or tomorrow morning, depending on where you are.

Watch the new video below, directed by Jason Miller it features the band getting dissected by children found on Craigslist. Something different…
The spectacular new Les Savy Fav album was sadly leaked way ahead of its scheduled release date on September 14th. To make up to those good true types who want to support the band and don’t want to download it the NYC indie rock kings have released it digitally on iTunes a month early.
The album is out now. Get it. It’s rad.
Current UK MC D Double E has become quite a sensation since emerging from the London grime scene and establishing himself as an absolutely bananas MC with the Swerve-produced Street Fighter Riddim.
The track in question has cemented itself in the regular playlist at the office (read: just Abjekt’s computer but we love it) so we were overjoyed to see this banger finally get a video. It’s somehow even more fun than the actual track, so get on it… Hadouken!
