Offthechart's Random Tracks of the Day


When Saigon first announced announced his debut album, The Greatest Story Never Told, there was an enormous amount of hype. His first mixtape, Warning Shots, was pretty incredible and he scored a huge cameo on the HBO show Entourage. However, that was nearly 5 years ago. Since then, Saigon has basically fallen into obscurity. Still, it is an undeniable fact that some of his tracks are absolutely fire. Check out this classic Saigon cut with a huge feature from Jay-Z. No youtube of this one, hit the download link to stream it, though.
Download: Come On Baby (Remix) feat. Jay-Z


Another track from Slim Thugga. This dude just has some tracks that are straight fire. Released as promotional content for Slim Thug's last album, Boss of All Bosses, this track has got a killer beat. Check it out.

My favorite track from the rising star Nero. I spotted this dude at illroots a couple months ago and have picked up every one of his tracks since. He's got some incredibly clever lyrics and every song warrents a couple spins to pick up on some of his best lines.

Weekly Mixtape: Volume 1 (April 26th)


So I'm getting the jump on this a night early, but usually these will go up Sunday nights. Basically, every week I'm going to throw together a mixtape of 10-20 songs that particularly stood out to me this week. Most of these won't be taken from old posts from the week so this is definitely something worth picking up. Since this is the first edition, I stretched a little bit further back than a week and pulled some choice tracks off of Wiz Khalifa's Kush and OJ mixtape, as well as The Game's Red Room. If anyone has any tracks they think should have made the cut this week, leave a comment. Tracklist and download link down low.
