Them lames going to hate always, but Maino & the Mafia connect with Waka Flocka Flame for “They Gon Hate Us Anyway.” The track is what you’d expect from Brooklyn concrete guerrillas and Flockaveli to bring us some of the most ratchet sounds you will hear for the week. Stay tuned for Waka’s upcoming “DuFlocka Rant Halftime Show” coming this Thursday and more music from Maino & the Mafia as always.

Kat Dahlia – Gangsta (Remix) (feat. Maino)

After the success Kat Dahlia has seen with her single “Gangsta” it was only a matter of time until a remix surfaced. Given the song title, there are only a few artists who would fit the remix appropriately and being who he is, Maino decides to lend his lyrical services to the record. No word as to when Kat Dahlia will release her debut album under Sylvia Rhone’s Vested in Culture label, within the Epic Records umbrella, but we do expect to hear a lot more from her this year.

Ricky Blaze – Top Shottas (feat. Maino)

ricky-blaze-top-shottas-feat

Ricky Blaze has remained relatively quiet for having quite a few dope records out, but we think after this record with Maino, he might gather some more buzz for himself. With a hint of reggae and a bit of R&B, by the time Maino hops on the beat, the record is already a smash.

“Top Shottas” will serve as the second single off Ricky Blaze’s project, THE MAESTRO.

Montana, Lucky Don and Twigg Martin, the crew speaks on the current state of New York records and still keeping the traditional sound but accepting the new sound that most of us have accepted with the new generation revolving.
