“Santana Bandana” is vintage Juelz, and when you hear his “Santana back, he got the bandana back” refrain, you’re tempted to believe him more than you’ve believed him in recent years. The shrill synths are reminiscent of his and Dipset’s work with Heatmakerz, Rsonist and Ty Fyffe, and he’s back toying with suffixes from the onset (“It’s a wrap, it’s a wrizzy). Sure, it isn’t “Oh Yes” or “Mic Check,” but it’s a damn good start from a guy that, by all indications, can still get it done.

Schoolboy Q has unveiled his new video for “John Muir,” which hails from his recently released Blank Face LP. While the rapper doesn’t appear in the clip, it’s shot in a car and gives a passenger-side perspective that juxtaposes harrowing and chilled-out moments in an affectingly jarring way.
Coming off the highly acclaimed acclaimed LP Oxymoron, ScHoolboy Q is set to drop his second album, Blank Face. The album features 17 tracks, with pairings from such artists like Kanye West, Miguel, Vince Staples, Jadakiss, and SZa, just to name a few.
Have a listen to the full album below.
Filmed in China’s creepy Tianducheng — an exact replica of Paris boasting a scale replica of the Eiffel Tower — “Gosh” features 400 actors and, according to a press release, not a single drop of CGI or 3D modeling. That means they gave all those Chinese kids the exact same blonde-dyed bowl cut so they could worship at the feet of the albinos. Okay, so that sounds a bit strange, but just watch the video above and you’ll get it.

Dropping more tracks from his upcoming album, Always Strive and Prosper, A$AP Ferg brings the heat again. This time with “Let it Bang” featuring Schoolboy Q.
via rap-up.com: The Trap Lord kicks off the first two verses over high-energy production, focusing on his uncle Psycho, a Wu-Tang Clan fan with an Ol’ Dirty Bastard persona who handles beef with “no prob.” Then ScHoolboy Q delivers an autobiographical verse. “I ain’t talking about my uncle,” the TDE spitter raps. “This me.”
Ferg’s new album, Always Strive and Prosper, is set to drop April 22, but you can preoder March 24 on iTunes.
