Considering that dubstep is one of the weirdest genres out there, it’s only right that all dubstep music videos be just as weird. Bassnectar just released the video for his single, “Ugly,” which is assisted by Amp Live. As different as the video is, I kind of dig it, as it definitely suits the brain-throbbing track well. I’ll say no more and just let you watch from here. Hope you enjoy.

MTV Hive House gives us a look at Kendrick Lamar and ScHoolboy Q playing a few hits from their most recent albums. More information can be read below:

Above, watch Kendrick Lamar perform “Hol’ Up” and “A.D.H.D.” in front of a retrofitted moose print background, surrounded by a handful of his most fervent fans. Later in the session, Lamar plays hype man for accomplice ScHoolboy Q. Performing “Hands on the Wheel” from his breakout album “Habits & Contradictions,” ScHoolboy stirs the small crowd into a frenzy of waving hands and bobbing heads.

Definitely worth checking out the up close and personal performances from these two, because it doesn’t happen too often anymore.

BONUS: Below you can check out the lyric video for Kendrick’s latest single, “The Recipe,” featuring Dr. Dre. Enjoy.

Torae gives us a brand new video off of his “For the Record” project, which was released back in November. Here, the Pete Rock produced “That Raw” gets the visual, and you may already be able to tell by the title of the track what the song and video are all about. Check it out above, and don’t hesitate to snag “For the Record” off of iTunes now. Enjoy.

Reks and Statik give us another video off of their “Straight, No Chaser” project. If you haven’t given the album a listen yet, I highly recommend doing so, because it’s simply some all around dope hip-hop. In my mind, this is not even one of the standout tracks from the album, and it’s still wild. Check out the video above, and if you haven’t yet, give “Straight, No Chaser” a purchase over at iTunes. Enjoy.

Boston, what’s good? Less than two weeks and I’m back. Pretty much amped about that, to say the least. Okay, so the track…Mope Pope enlists fellow Boston-bred MC and co-star in the hit film The Town, Slaine. “Dead Kennedy’s” is an anthem for those on the grind, those stuck in the loop, and those who do what they got to do and just make it by. We all got work. Well, the majority of us do. Salute to those with patience, endurance, and dedication! Closing note: When Slaine dropped those Boston-accent bars, I just lost it. I put on for my city.

ScienZe & King I Divine released this free project back in mid-March, on and in collaboration with, 2dopeboyz. Divine ScienZe was so well received by so many listeners, I decided to give it a listen myself. As the last song was coming to its end, I played that $#!+ back because I just had to hear it again. So I suggest that you, at the very least, check out a few songs. “Hero” is certainly one of the top tracks on the tape. Also may I suggest that you imbibe in the sweet sounds of “Peace” as well as the Dilla-esque, “Enjoy Tonight” – and lastly, if you download it after those two, you’ll get the hidden track “How I’m Designed.” This tape has roots in boom-bap and underground, and displays an extensive amount of quality sampling. #HIPHOP

We heard the track a long time ago, but Dada Life just recently released their video for “Kick Out The Epic Motherf**ker.” Regardless on how you feel about the song, the video is definitely interesting to watch, and suits the track quite well. If you don’t have it, you can purchase the track via iTunes. Enjoy.

Ground Up and crew are back at it again with a new video for us shot in heaven, also known as Amsterdam. Three months ago they released The Get Up which is one of my favorite mixtapes of the year. The production from Bij Lincs…do I even need to compliment this guy again? His production speaks for itself. Azar and Malakai once again prove that music can be made independently from the ground up. I’m kicking myself because I still have yet to make it to one of their shows. This summer it shall be done. Go download The Get Up.

Schweppes? Loved this song by Mayer, a bit surprised he ended up making a video out of it but then I saw that product placement, guess that was a business decision they couldn’t miss out on…

What a good song. Minimal words and multiple ambient, synth sounds. In October, Modeselektor dropped their album Monkeytown and just recently did they decide to make this strange video for one of their more notable tracks. “This” is a song that is relaxingly hypnotic and almost everyone will be able to dive into “This” and float away for just under 5 minutes.
