Premiering on Billboard.com this week (http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/the-juice/1537534/common-j-period-the-next-chapter-still-love-her) and celebrating the release of NY Times best-selling author Adam Mansbach's novel, Rage Is Back, J.PERIOD joins forces with hip hop icon COMMON for the exclusive new single, "The Next Chapter (Still Love H.E.R.)" [Produced by J.PERIOD].  "The Next Chapter (Still Love H.E.R.)" celebrates the latest episode in COMMON’s lifelong lyrical love-affair with hip hop, over exclusive production by J.PERIOD, and marks the second installment of a literary first: exclusive promo music released in tandem with a new novel. 

Set against the backdrop of graffiti-era New York, Manbach’s Rage Is Back delivers a mind-bending journey through a subterranean world of epic heroes and villains, and is already being called “the great American graffiti novel.”  A must-read for any literate hip-hop fan, Rage is Back is available in the iTunes bookstore (http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/rage-is-back/id540077534?mt=11) and is currently one of Amazon’s “Books of the Month” (http://www.amazon.com/Rage-Is-Back-A-Novel/dp/0670026123).

The MIDI Mafia ft. Rockie Fresh - Back Down

"Stop and Look," the first single off Adrian Younge Presents the Delfonics, dropped back in December and pretty much blew our minds. William's voice was so pure and Adrian's symphonic production was so lush. So, we are super pleased to give you guys the remix of that amazing track, which features production by Detroit MC Black Milk and rhymes by Cali hip-hop legends Souls of Mischief. Look out for the album on March 12.

Karriem: "My idea was to chop a song that is so important to hip hop and also pay homage to 1 of the funkiest groups from one of the funkiest states. Ohio Players' music will forever be relevant! RIP Sugarfoot."

Ricky Hil, the tattooed, rebel son of fashion mogul Tommy Hillfiger is dropping his debut album SYLDD exclusively on Noisey.

The album is less of a public service announcement than its title might imply. Yes, Ricky is unapologetic about his drug use for most of the album, but there are also moments of self-reflection and critique of the rampant perscription drug use in America. SYLDD feels more like if Future or syrup-era Lil Wayne were moonlighting as singer/songwriters over some envelope-pushing beats from the likes of Illangelo, Blended Babies and Ricky Hil himself.

Perhaps a more accurate description of Ricky Hil would be to compare him to the similarly drug-and-sex-oriented R&B phenom The Weeknd, who makes an appearance on SYLDD on the standout “Nomads.” Ricky twists and mangles his raspy voice over every snare and hi-hat, taking his flow to gloriously counterintuitive places, a reflection of the darkness he's trying to communicateto the listener.

Because Ricky Hil doesn’t give a fuck about his label and wanted to get the album to his fans on the day he promised it would come out, and because we at Noisey love music and drugs and music about drugs, we’re giving you Rich Hil’s debut album SYLDD for free.
