"ALL TALK" - Kid Cudi ft. Chip Tha Ripper

Ok, I know its a few days old, but it took a while to grow on me before I decided it was moon worthy. Maybe its that Ive been so obsessed with Drake lately that I forgot how much I love the man on on the moon himself. Cudi will always be my favorite. Im extremely jealous of everyone who is seeing him live lately getting to listen to tracks off of his new album, Man on The Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager. September 14th is a long ways away but worth it for that new new...

"USE OF TIME"- 311

Spending my time today wisely, instead of listening to you...

"LIFE AND DEATH"- Michael Giacchino (guitar cover)

I'm slowing it down heavily for this post. Many of my friends who have been suffering through the LSAT with me have told me that my blog has been helping them persevere. This one goes out to you guys.

This is the definition of study music. The original song by Oscar winning composer Michael Giacchino, was composed with piano and strings for the ABC show LOST. It is comparably relaxing, but this version is just plain amazing. This guy covers it with an electric guitar, adds some effects, and gives it that space like feel. This is the song that is playing on repeat in my head while I have been taking these LSAT practice tests. Hang in there guys, it will all be over soon...

"CLOSER TO MY DREAMS" (Freestyle)- Dolla

I'm young and I'm active. I got some shit I'm tryna learn you can help me practice. We study on the mattress; That's where my class is, nothing but a T-shirt, that's easy access.

Amazing freestyle from Dolla that samples Drake's "Closer to My Dreams". Although Dolla only graced hip hop with his presence for a short time, his music will live on forever.
RIP DOLLA (11/25/87-5/18/09)

"SO HIGH, SO LOW"- Matisyahu

Heres a feel good track from my favorite Orthodox Jew, Matisyahu.

"BLUE AND YELLOW"- The Used

Should've done something but I've done it enough,
By the way your hands were shaking,
Rather waste some time with you...

Classic track from The Used. I will never stop loving this song. Burt, the lead singer, puts so much passion and emotion into his music that he throws up after every single live show. (Just a fun fact)

"SINK FLORIDA SINK"- Against Me

Ive been posting a lot of hip hop lately, but with the LSAT rapidly approaching, I'm gonna slow it down a bit, and play some songs with soothing melodies , sensual beats, and a little guitar, so I stop being so stressed. This song by Against Me is real old and brings back a lot of history from my high-school days. Short, but sweet...

DOUBLE SHOT- RHCP

For those who like to get lost in amazing music, here are 2 live performances by my favorite band of all time, The Red Hot Chili Peppers.

"BREAKUP SEX"- Kinetics and One Love

More fire from Kinetics and One Love. Kinetics' lyrics and smooth flow and One Love's instrumentals are easily making these guys some of my favorite upcoming artists. They have much more music you can download for free at their website HERE.

Kinetics & One Love - Breakup Sex by MoonBRB

"POWER" - Kanye West

New Kanye, no autotune bullshit,just straight spitting fire...

Kanye West - Power by MoonBRB

"FIREWORKS"- Drake

The album version of this song was leaked just a few hours ago. I do feel kinda bad posting this, because more tracks are leaking every day, but every new track I hear off of this album makes me want it more and more. These lyrics are so deep. He touches on everything; his sudden success, his parents,ex girlfriend, and more. So real. Enjoy...Thank Me Later, June 15th.

Drake - Fireworks f Alicia Keys by MoonBRB

"WE OWN THE SKY"- M83 (Udachi Dubstep Edit)

Amazzzzing dubstep...wait till the beat drops at 1:05, holy kush.

"SUPERBAD"-Travie McCoy

This track comes off of Travie McCoy of the Gym Class Heroes' first solo album "Lazarus", which is actually his middle name. The CdQ version officially dropped a few hours ago. This song is unique in that he sings the entire time, and doesn't even rap. Travie has been doing big things lately, and I'm definitely looking forward to this album dropping on June 8th.

"OUR LITTLE SECRET"- Loggy

I came across Loggy, and am really digging this guys sound. This track reminds me of vibin on a summer afternoon.Pure "feel good" music...

"WIDE EYES"- The Local Natives

Im real happy I found out about The Local Natives. They spew out moon worthy jams like its their job. Sounds like a mix between Minus The Bear, and Modest Mouse. The instrumentals are too soothing. Moon, be back never...

"UNFORGETTABLE"- Drake ft. Jeezy

"Baby don’t hold on too long cause that’s how them stories start out,
and all the girls that play me, eat your muthafuckin heart out, its drizzy...
Always gone but never hard to find,
And since you can’t escape me do I ever cross your mind???????"

Wow...words cannot express how wet this track is. Heard a radio rip a few days ago but it was horrible quality. My boy Young Hilbs over at WETJAMZ somehow found, and sent me the CDQ version. This song is life changing. Thank Me Later...June 15th...

Drake - Unforgettable (Feat. Young Jeezy) CDQ by user7418286

"DEAR GOD 2.0"- The Roots

New Music from the Roots??? Thank God, my prayers have been answered...

"LUPIN"- NiT GriT

This master of Dubstep was thrown my way from Waller. Wow this guy is talented. Turns out hes coming to Miami on June 25th, and I might just have to take a trip down there. This music is so soothing, deffinitly moon material. Peep more of his tracks at his website HERE.

"NASTY FEEL"- MGMT vs. Notorious Big vs. Justice

Happy Birthday Biggie, you invented this game...
Christopher George Latore Wallace (May 21, 1972 – March 9, 1997)

"9 AM FREESTYLE IN DALLAS"- Drake

"Kush got the room smelling like teen spirits"

Got this off of Octobersveryown via Drakes twitter...It literally dropped hours ago.
Holy shit this is melting my speakers...

"UN-THINKABLE Remix" Alicia Keys ft Drake

“Cause you know life is what we make it and a chance is like a picture, it’d be nice if you just take it”

Ive been listening to this track for a few days now, and I normally dont like RnB type music, but this one stands out. I finally decided to throw it up. Pure fire, lava, baby making music. PLEASE GO AND LOOK UP THESE LYRICS! Drizzy's verse is too deep, and this beat is too sensual...

"THIS PLANE"- Wiz Khalifa

Speculating me landing? Must of got me mistaken...

Wiz Khalifa takes a plane to the moon. He talks about it in literally all of his songs...its his vessel for fire. This is the single off of his Deal or No Deal album that dropped last year. Hes goin to the moon and he never wants to come back...

"1901"- Phoenix (Neon Steve Remix)

A pretty dope dubstep-ish remix to 1901 by Neon Steve. Thanks to Waller for sending this my way.

"BE QUIET AND DRIVE"- Deftones

"This town don't feel mine
I'm fast to get away, far

I dressed you in her clothes
Now drive me far away

It feels good to know Your all mine
now drive me far away

I don't care where just far,
away..."

The LSAT and everything else has been stressing me out too much lately. This song makes me just wanna pack my shit and move to the moon, where there are only good vibes.

CHRONIC FUTURE Double Shot

"They say these things come and these things go, but if I don't try, I'll never know..."

2 tracks from one of my favorite moon residents, Chronic Future. I couldnt pick a favorite out of the 2, so Im dropping both of them. Just vibe...

WICKED GAMES


NEW YORK, NY

"FORMANT"- Team Sleep

I am so sick of studying for the LSAT tonight. I need to go to the moon asap. All I need is some Team Sleep, and I'm gone. Team Sleep is Chino Moreno of the Deftones' side project. Most of the tracks are like this, so check out the rest of their songs and try not escape real life for too long...Goodnight Moon

This song literally removes the gravity from the room.

"ANGELS remix"- Dirty Money ft. Lupe Fiasco

"Knew she was New Jersey (devil), but said that she was Anaheim (Angel)... "

IS THIS REAL LIFE??? Wait till the chorus drops at 2:00...Lupe's lyrics are UNPARALLELED!!!!

"RESCUE ME"- Skepta

Holy Kush, wait till this beat drops...

"FALL FOR YOUR TYPE"- Drake

Can I, Can I save you from YOU?

New Drizzy...short but sweet. Im not sure if this is going in the album, but its wet none the less... The lyrics speak to me. Drizzy is talkin about this girl he fell for even though he knows its wrong. He should have learned his lesson the first time, but he swears this one is different. He wants her to have fun and do her thing, but to get out of her own head, and tell her that the thing she keeps looking for is actually right in front of her face. This kid is the truth...

"SHAKE IT OUT" Manchester Orchestra

More fire off of Manchester Orchestra's newest album. I love how they slow it down for the breakdown at 2:30, and then build it back up at the end.

"BOILER"- Limp Bizkit

Alright, I know its Limp Bizkit, but listen to it, and you'll see why it's up here.

"BREAKIN BREAD"- Kollosus (Phaseone remix)

Phaseone's remix of "Breakin Bread" by Kollosus. Got this track off of the ADULT SWIM ATL RMX mixtape. I love the spacelike feel that Phaseone adds to it. Fire Fire Fire...

"RAD ANTHEM"- Rad Omen

This song is not that bad, but this video is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen, and reminds me of better times. It was directed by the same guy that directed "Grandma's Boy". Watch this and thank me later...

"WASTING MY MINUTES"- KiD CuDI

This one goes out to all the stupid girls out there. I know its off tune in the begining, but wait a bit and it levels out...

"PLEASE DONT SHOOT ME DOWN"- Los

LOS kills every beat he raps over. Most ridiculous lyricist since Big L. I know thats a bold statement, but listen to this guy's second verse. He is literally rapping about LEFT and RIGHT! If you have time, check out his "A Millie Fresstyle". Yes I said freestyle! Raps as fast as Twista, but off the dome...

"IN FOR THE KILL" - La Roux (Skream Remix)

Thanks again DUBSTEP MOVEMENT

"ANALOG BOY"- Rx Bandits

I couldn't believe my eyes when I woke up this morning,
I looked at the sidewalk and there was a million people dressed the same,
who answered their cell phones at the same time
and all popped a pill for the same disorder
can't be fat, no we can't have that
we're so far gone...

Heard these guys while I was in NJ in 2004. I eventually ended up seeing them live many years later. This song always stuck out to me. Its a punkish/ska feel, but it sounds great.

Double shot of "MOTHER EARTH REMIXES"

One of my favorite Mash-up makers who is also a full time college student.

The Fray mixed with Kanye and Weezy


And no graduation is complete without this song, but M.E.R. adds some fire to it...

"GRADUATE"- Third Eye Blind

Congrats to my baby sister for graduating highschool today. Ever since she was a little niña, I knew that she was going to be doing big things, and that journey for her starts today.

"MY WAY"-JJ ft Lil Wayne

When I decided to make this blog thing, I had it in mind to put songs like this up the most. Its trippy, different, and space-like. This is the kind of music that takes you to the moon. I heard this track back in January, but haven't heard it again until recently, and I fell in love all over again. Wait until Weezy's verse drops. You're welcome...

"MAKE TONIGHT"- Emanuel

Relax, relax and let these taxes of your reflex act.

This song is pure SEX. I saw them open up for Senses Fail while I was still in high-school, and have been a fan ever since. The way the lyrics flow together with this rhythm is so seductive. After listening to this one, you might wanna take someone to the moon with you, if you know what I mean...

"FIREWORKS (snippet)"- Drake

It's all happening Penny Lane...

How can someone spit this much fire, and not even release an album yet? He is truly unstoppable. THANK ME LATER!!!!!!!!!!!! June 15th.

This entire album was recorded on the moon...

"DON'T WORRY, IM YOURS" - DJ Dain Mashup : Jason Mraz vs Bobby McFerrin vs Israel Kamakawiwo'ole

R.I.P. Big guy...

I dont care what kind of day you might be having, or how miserable your life might be, THIS SONG will pull you out of it. A master mashup of the 3 feel good artists of the Milenium. Jason Mraz's "Im Yours", Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry Be Happy", and my favorite Ukelele artist, Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's "Over the Rainbow", and "Wonderful World".

"INTRO"- The XX

If my life were to be made into a movie, I would want this song to be the intro. Posner agreed and sampled it for the intro to his "One Foot Out The Door" mixtape. Short, but sweet, first class ticket to the moon, brb...

"LIGHTS PLEASE"- J Cole

This is the first track that brought me on to the J Cole bandwagon. Im pretty sure it was this track that convinced Jay-Z to sign him. PLEAAAASSSEEE look up these lyrics and read them along with the song. This kid is too real, and pure genius. He is the future of hip hop, I promise you this...

"MAYBE TOMORROW"- Stereophonics

Classic track from Stereophonics for those lady listeners looking for a ticket to the moon...

"BUTTERFLY EFFECT"- Kinetics & One Love

Ive been obsessed with Kinetics and One Love lately. You might recognize their music from the "Airplanes" song with B.O.B. and the hot redhead from Paramore. That song samples the original "Airplanes" song by Kinetics! Their lyrics are just plain ridiculous. They are so talented, and I cant wait for what they have next.

"ROLLIN"- Jackie Chain ft, Kid Cudi

This is kind of how it is,
when you living young and fast...

This song randomly came on while on the way down to Sofla today, and it reminded me how much I love it. If you have the time, google Jackie Chain. He very might well be the goofiest human being I have ever laid eyes on, and should be lucky that Cudi threw a verse on this track. Many people might be familiar with the remix of this jam, where its just Cudi, which is fine, but in this version you can hear alot more of the instrumentals that make up this amazing beat.

"SEATTLE"- The Classic Crime

This song is great. Kings of Leon-ish feel, but more acoustic, and much more simple.
Just Vibe...

"BLACK AND GOLD"- Sam Sparro

Classic song, sick beat, UCF colors, fire...

"HUMDRUM TOWN"- Theophilus London

Oldie but goodie...
