Music Monday 54.

Luke Christopher ft Asher Roth - Roof Tops



I've always said that Asher Roth's I Love College hit will always be to his deteriment, it lead people to believe that he is just a one-hit chart rapper. But listen to the rest of the album, listen to his mixtapes, and you will quickly see that he is more than a sing along chorus, he's got skills along with a catchy beat. This time he teams up with Luke Christopher, an 18 year old with many talents it would seem. Catchy little tune, just a tad too short.

Big Sean - Hometown



By the way of endorsers, Kanye West is not a bad way to go, and that's exactly who Big Sean has got behind him screaming he's the next big thing. I've only gotten around to listening to him recently and I like. And what a really like in hip hop is a good sample. Maybe he can be accused of jumping on the Adele bandtown, but he's used the sample well and put some tidy rhythms over the top.

Foster The People - Pumped Up Kids




This dreamy California indie pop sound is from Foster The People from, err, California. This song is perfect for some summer evenings and it looks like some bright things are to come from this band.

Chiddy Bang - Too Much Soul




As far as pop hip-hop goes, there's few better than Chiddy Bang. The single from their latest mixtape Peanut Butter and Swelly samples Hockey, Chiddy Bang do like a cheeky sample in their songs. Chiddy Bang also teamed up with Big Sean on a version on this, check it out.
