Names to Know 2012 – Archie.V


Now, I really can’t tell you much about archie.v except you are sure to be hearing more and more from this guy as the year goes on. His hype started growing last year with his song Magic is Timeless which the internet mistook for a collab track between avicii and alesso. Obviously this guy brings it with catchy beats and solid production on every track. Right now, people are mixing and mashing his beats and adding in vocals, something archie.v has yet to start doing himself. Trust me though, when he does start adding that final piece to his tracks, the man is going to blow up. So here are two new tracks that were released this week, and if you haven’t yet, check out Magic is Timeless

Names to Know 2012 – Iggy Azalea


So, I decided to give you guys a nice big piece about someone who I am pretty sure we will be hearing a lot of. Like the previous post, which I didnt give the official title to, Azealia Banks is one of those people to look out for. But anyways, this post is to introduce you to Iggy Azalea.
Iggy Azalea is an Australian rapper who moved to the United States when she was 15 to pursue her passion in music. Born Amethyst (last name unknown) Iggy Azalea takes her stage name from her familys dog. At an early age, Iggy was a huge fan of Tupac, attributing him among many others with her love for rap. Currently Iggy is not signed to a label but she has been working closely with Interscope Records. Her debut album, The New Classic, will be released sometime in 2012, but we have some stuff to tide you over.
First up, here are the videos for Iggy’s two biggest songs, the first, is aptly titled Pu$$y and features Iggy and friends participating in some sexual suggestive actions.

The second, a slightly less profane song is titled My World, which was sampled and used on Sam Adams recent mixtape (which you can get here )

Bonus points for whoever recognizes the man at the beginning of the video

So, keep an eye out for this girl in 2012 and beyond, and know where you heard of her first, CMB. If you like what you’ve heard, check out Iggy’s website and download her mixtape here
