Eargasms

posted in music by Yin

I think I’ve changed Eargasms onto a Wednesday thing now. Some of these tracks dropped mid-week last week so don’t call me late or anything as I’m still ahead of most of ya’ll. This first track is apparently an unreleased track from Keyshia Cole featuring Alicia Keys titled ‘Only With You’. I’ve listened to the song about 30 times and I have yet to hear Alicia’s vocals, so I think she’s the one playing the piano. The track is all lovey dovey but the airy vocals with the piano works so well. This song and many more after the cut.

I don’t know when this track dropped but I only came across this Adidas Originals commercial I just had to cop the song. The beat is smooth, the production is dope as always from Ryan Leslie. He teamed up with Corey Latif Williams to produce the track and here’s their idea behind the song:

Instead of writing a record from a male perspective with the ever-so-popular misogynistic undertone, we opted for honesty. This record is about having the guts to admit you’re not ready to fully commit and in fact you’re actually ‘just thinking’ about the concept of love.’

I know I posted this next song a few weeks ago but it’s so good that I had to share it again. A very summer/spring track thanks to Ellie Goulding‘s vocals and Xaphoon‘s mixing skills. Here’s 2 songs from Chiddy Bang’s latest mixtape; Air Swell.

Chiddy Bang - Under The Sheets – Link, Pass Out Remix – Link

A couple more of my favourite tracks from this week before the round of the rest:

Rich Hil hooked up with Kid Cudi again for another sick track, Cudi adds his crazy vocals once again.

This dropped early this morning and Pharrell definitely goes nuts with the beat on this one. Not been a big fan of The Game’s recently leaked tracks but this one is good.

‘Something hot in here, n***a it must be me’

Alternative Ish


Some French Hip-Hop for ya’ll  in the shape of Hocus Pocus. I’ve never heard of this guy till yesterday but I do like French Hiphop, they have some dope beats and flow even though I have no clue of what the eff they are saying. The video is perhaps one of the best I’ve seen in terms of creativity.

Hocus Pocus - 16 Pieces – Link

Last but not least, a really slow acoustic song that I heard in a movie that I watched today.
