So we’re already six months in 2009 and well into the seventh … here’s a little shortlist of what I thought best of what was released so far (in no particular order). I know Top 30 might seems like an odd number, but I just wrote down songs off the top of my head and it ended up around 28, so i added 2 more to reach 30. You might also notice that I play around with the release dates of the songs, some of them leaked in 2008 and are still on the list, because they were officially released in 2009 and so on … anyway, here it is in no particular order.

And that will be all folks.

Chester French covers Hella’ Good of No Doubt during their tour with Lady GaGa. Still a bit hating over the fact that CF skipped Montreal during the Lady GaGa tour AND the Lady Sovereign one.

sooooo legit.

Chester French’s debut album, Love The Future, drops tomorrow, here’s two tracks that were on the Get Familiar mixtape, but without the drops.

download : Chester French – I’m So Tall ft. Bun B, Talib Kweli & Mickey Factz
download : Chester French – No Parents Allowed ft. Kardinal Offishall & N.O.R.E.

two new tracks from Asher Roth upcoming album Asleep In The Bread Aisle dropping on 4/20 … If anyone had doubt about Asher Roth being an one trick pony, I think that all the tracks leaked before the release should prove otherwise.
