Remember the name: City Shawn! One of the best projects from a new artist out the Bay I’ve heard in a while. Download it here

Representing San Jose, City Shawn releases his new project EAST today for free download. With Bay Area factors Thizzler On The Roof, DreemTeem, Breezy Excursion, Redwall Studio and more behind the album, the streets have been humming with anticipation for City’s follow up to 2013’s Forever, which was hosted by Bay legend Traxamillion. Produced, mixed and mastered entirely by DreemTeem’s Cortez, EAST is a departure from the dark, trap heavy sound of Forever, and instead features for the most part a sample heavy “player vibe” that is sure to make you nod your head.

“All I want to accomplish with EAST is to show people you can just be you and it will work,” says City, “There’s many sides to every person, and EAST is just one side of me. The reason EAST is so different from Forever is because they’re two different albums and I was at two different stages in my life while I was making them. Forever 2 is next though!” Shouting out #SanJoseVsEverybody, City Shawn is determined to put San Jose on the map – and EAST is only the beginning.

After 4 years of trying to figure out who I want on this song Bad News Brown left for me (the hook was the hardest part to figure out), I finally am happy with the outcome and think it’s ready for the public to enjoy. I want to thank D-Animals for producing the song, Magnum, J. Stalin, Mistah Fab, Kali Pop. Special thanks to the Noisey team for premiering the song today.

The reason why most hate this type of music is the same reason that I love it. AB sticks to the Bay Area (especially Oakland) script with “Shit I Smoke To”. If you want to hear more of AB and the rest of the Young Hustlaz check out “Still YH” mixtape that was presented by GSlaps Ent in 2013.

Lil Dicky drops his visual composition for “Too High” and it deserves an Oscar or something resembling a trophy. Consisting of bong hits, joints, chicken nuggets precisely  depicting the common trials and tribulations of a day to day stoner. Just don’t neglect your cooking while watching this video!
