I hope this mixtape finds you well. Merry Christmas and a happy new year! And if you don't celebrate Christmas, happy whatever! This is just a collection of more dope music that's been hitting my ears as of late, and I thought you'd enjoy it as well. Hopefully I'll post a list of the best songs and projects this year before the end of December. Till then, pop this baby into your iPod or Zune (do they even make those still?), and try to forget about the day you have to go back to work/school/sobriety.

1. bonus-que b.i.l.l.a.h.: seems like everybody's got a damn acronym in their name now. at least this dude makes good music to distract you from trying to figure it out. this track is off Bird Shit (and if you're a good person you have this already). i mainly put it on because of the madness that went down over the new jordans countrywide due to sneakerheads that just had to have them at ALL COSTS.
2. rack city freestyle-wale + black cobain: i literally waited for wale to jump on this when i heard tyga ruin the crazy beat. i'm pretty sure i like beatjacking wale way more than album wale. kinda like weezy... i just hope he doesn't end up in the same sad state... fast forward on cobain's verse and you won't miss much.
3. all of the above-notes to self: canadia represents with this hip hop/art collective. definitely excited to hear more from these guys.
4. mobb shhh-cam'ron + vado: damn boss of all bosses 3 is that good. i always thought vado was gonna be solid. and cam'ron delivers as well. harlem nigg* with more sponsors than a rutgers court... ignorant but militant.
5. play the part-leedz edutainment, torae, al-j, akrobatik: boston label put a very dope free album together and this is definitely a stand out track.
6. sinister kids freestyle-mayday!: track off of the black keys new album + mayday? sign me up.
7. piece-blu, choice 37: blu + a korean producer? double sign me up.
8. hoodlums and crooks-sav killz, spit supreme: bought this mixtape off the man himself (sav killz) in union square for $5. definitely worth more though.
9. champion of life-jon connor: connor continues to convince me that he is the truth. something about his delivery makes me believe the struggle that is his life. oh, and his flow is ridiculous.
10. on my own-consequence + kid cudi: i know cons has his haters but i focus on the music. and so does he apparently because of tracks like this. i'm curious to see what mescudi's next album, wzrd, is gonna be like. please, oh please, don't let it be like wayne's rock album (whatever it's called) and half of yeezy's 808's and hearbreaks.
11. paraphernalia (get away from the radio)-the kid daytona + iFFy the badman: ok so ALL white girls may not break your heart but NY spitter kid daytona will break you in half if you step to him. lyrically that is. or maybe with fists. i don't know the dude. but i know his skills.
12. ghetto dope-aleon craft + george clinton: if you don't know who george clinton is, it's because you actually do. off the remix project of aleon craft's past songs.
13. masonic vocals-planet asia + madlib: can you go wrong with these two? cracks in the vinyl is definitely a chiller album but very smooth. like scotch that comes in a fancy box and you can't pronounce the name without feeling pretentious in all the right ways.
14. set me free-tito lopez: i love when mc's sample old songs with the right feel to it. this is no exception.
