Uncommon Radio #52 features Exclusive billy woods track that's Produced by Nasa

Nasa just dropped the latest episode of Uncommon Radio and on it he played a brand new, soon to be released, track he produced for billy woods.  The track is called Musical Chairs and it will be available on woods' upcoming free release, Wooden Nickels, which will be dropping just before the Christmas.  Make sure you keep an eye out for that project from Backwoodz!  Nasa laid down 19 banging tracks on this episode, make sure you subscribe to Uncommon Radio on Itunes or peep it here on the site!

Adam Warlock's "Infinity Gauntlet" included on Willie Green's "Best of Compilation"

Willie Green has just released Days of Future Past, a mixtape/compilation of his "Greatest Hits".  Why a greatest hits you ask?  Because as he's stated today, he's "dropped over 200 tracks with his own production or remixing in the last 6 years".  He and DJ Mo Niklz wittled that discography down to 38 and chose to include Adam Warlock's Infinity Gauntlet alongside bangers like Crocodile Tears from Billy Woods, Had to Be Me from Premrock and Nightmares from Open Mike Eagle (among many others).  This shapes up to be a must have and it's FREE.
