Illa Scorsese- Unauthorized Biography

6 Dec

Illa Scorsese is ALWAYS working on something new. So when he hit us up with his new mixtape- ‘Unauthorized Biography’ we weren’t surprised.

We were however pleasantly surprised at the rawness and depth that Illa gives this 11 chapter story.

Unauthorized Biography is the story of Cam G, a man who is trying his best to do the right thing for himself & his family but is trapped by the trap. Through 11 chapters we dive deep into his mind in search for understanding. Seeking the driving force of a man who’s back is against the wall due to the society he was born in. A true product of the environment story.

Listen to Cam’s Theme and Windows for a real demonstration of Illa’s storytelling abilities and diversity. And if you were wondering what Illa and club music would sound like together, check out On The Dancefloor below.

Go Buy Camp – Childish Gambino

15 Nov

First, NBC is making a huge mistake by bouncing Community. It may never air again, which makes me very sad. Well one great thing about Community is it led me to Donald Glover a.k.a. Childish Gambino.

When I first started watching Community I also went out and picked up the Free-EP’s that Childish Gambino had released. I like to think I’m ahead of the curve, when really I have no idea.

The debut album from Childish was released today. Camp is a view into the brilliant mind that is Donald Glover and has blown me out of the water. It is my favourite album that was released today, which says a lot based on the albums that were released today.

I don’t need to say a lot about the material, it speaks for itself. Check out three of my favourite tracks from Camp below. Go buy this album now, you will not regret it, I promise.

Heartbeat – Childish Gambino
Kids (Keep Up) – Childish Gambino
That Power – Childish Gambino

DOSVEC is on a tear with these dubstep/rap mashes and continues the trend with this Feed Me + Drake and co. collab. His last instalment featuring B.O.B & Zeds Dead was so hot the artists themselves tweeted about the mashup. Let’s see if we can get wonderboy Drizzy and Feed Me to take notice.

Check DOSVEC out on Soundcloud for many more mashes.

Party on Fifth Ave – Mac Miller Video

28 Oct

Mac Miller just dropped the video for Party on Fifth Ave. This is the third single from Blue Slide Park and Mac gives a new spin to a classic beat. I really think Blue Slide Park is going to catapult Mac Miller into another stratosphere, what do you think?

Mac Miller – I Love Life, Thank You Mixtape Download

19 Oct

Ok so I’m a few days late on this but better late than never right? I picked up the I Love Life, Thank You mixtape a couple days ago when it dropped and forgot to add it to iTunes until today. On the first listen I came across his Love Lost track which Mac lays a verse over a Temper Trap sample.

If you’re a long time Ambassador Beats reader you’ll remember how I used to post any and ever remix that featured The Temper Trap. I love their Conditions album and still listen to it regularly, so when I came across Mac Millers version I have high expectations.

Thankfully Mac does the track justice and has now successfully pumped me up even more for Blue Slide Park.

Check out Love Lost below along with the mixtape.

Don’t Go – Matt Clarke ft. KAM Royal & Rachel Adams

18 Oct

I’m surprised more people haven’t sampled Boston by Augustana. The opening piano line is amazing and The Two Friends have taken that opening and flipped it into a great beat for Don’t Go.

Matt Clarke and KAM Royal both have great verses on this track and it will sure have people asking for more. I’m excited to see what else comes out of the Blackbook Music Group camp as this song is amazing.

Stream and download the track below and share it with all your friends. When they ask where you got this track, just remember Ambassador Beats brought it to you.

18 Oct

I’ve posted about Sif.Like.Piff before and yesterday he dropped a brand new video for his track High All Day. This track comes from the Musical Fix 3 Mixtape and features a verse from Gwap. The beat is hot, the verses are tight, and the visuals are great. Check out this video and look into Sif.Like.Piff, you’ll be blown away.

New Illa Scorsese – Lonely Road

18 Oct

It’s been a minute since we got some new material from Illa Scorsese but the wait is finally over. He has been hitting the studio hard lacing beats with his signature smooth flow and Lonely Road is his latest single.

This Mitchy Luv produced track features Garnett Boldin and as the intro tells you, we are in for a special treat. It’s off Unauthorized Biography (of Cam G) which we should expect  to drop at the end of next month.

Until then check out and download Lonely Road below.

XV Samples Skrillex For Boss Level

11 Oct

It’s really starting to look like we were on to something when we brought you the Illa Scorsese Dubstep album, because more and more rappers are expanding into the genre.

The latest is XV who goes in on one of Skrillex’s biggest tunes. The chorus isn’t great but the verses shine. The song is called Boss Level and we’d love to hear what you think.

I’m still partial to 21 Dub St, and you should download that if you haven’t already. Scroll down and click on the album art on the right hand side. It’s there, check it out.

On and On – Mac Miller (Feat. Teressa LaGamba)

9 Oct

I think the hook on this song says it best about whats been going on with me lately. I do feel like I’ve been gone for a little too long, but its not by choice. My internet provider has been shitting the bed recently and have really been letting me down. But for some reason the internet is working for me tonight so I’m taking advantage of it while I can.

On and On is the latest track to be released off Mac Millers up coming November 8th album Blue Slide Park. It features Teressa LaGamba on the chorus and the track sounds great. Mac’s raps are tight and his punchlines are getting better and better.

Check out On and On below and forgive me for my absence, its really not my fault.

Dopest Mother F*cker Since Before I Hit The 7th Grade

24 Sep

Mac Miller has dropped the video for Smile Back, his second single off his upcoming debut album Blue Slide Park. Song is sick, video is sick, but I was worried. Mac Miller has a tendency to mix his best friends in the video. I made it through the entire video without seeing the white kid with long hair and I was worried that Mac Miller has cut his friends out of the video. Then the guys take their masks off and there he is, peace is restored in the world. Enjoy.

New Music Video From XV – When We’re Done

23 Sep

We’ve brought you some XV tunes in the past, intact I still regularly listen to his song Foreign Exchange Student which samples Miami Horror. He has released a mixtape since then and just dropped a new video for When We’re Done which is a song off his Zero’s Heroes mixtape. The song is great and I expect great things in the next few months for XV. Enjoy
