[News] New Frank Ocean Material Coming in July? Hear "Channel Orange" (Snippet)

Frank Ocean has gained a lot of fans in a short space of time by uploading tracks to his Tumblr on regular occasions. He seems like the calm and collected member of Odd Future which is a nice change of pace from the hyperactive stage divers. There's also a lot of excitement building regarding new material from the crooner and today that excitement will continue to burn bright. The fuel being added to the fire is a snippet of a track called "Channel Orange" that's appeared online in a video, it's a chilled out R and B number. At the end the words "Channel Orange" appear and the date "07.17.12" relating to a July the 17th release we assume. A Tuesday and an American release day. Watch this space, it looks like we may be getting a new release from Frank sooner than we'd hoped! Mixtape/Single? What are your thoughts on the matter? Let us know.

[Watch] Killer Mike - "Big Beast" (NSFW Video)

Killer Mike's awesome single "Big Beast" has been given the official video treatment and it packs just as much punch as the track itself. The R.A.P. Music featuring track video sees murder, robbery and masks in the forefront and features a fair bit of blood and gore. T.I., Bun B and Trouble along with Mike all star in the video too and it clocks in at just under 10 minutes but damn it's worth the watch. POW.

Killer Mike's El-P produced album R.A.P. Music is out now.
