Lil Wayne created the Carter III hype through mixtapes, Kid Cudi first album sold big because of his masterpiece mixtape and now as I see it the next big thing has hit the scene through wouldn't ya know it... mixtape. If you haven't downloaded The Cleveland Show then your a fool. Its thirty tracks of good shit. Below is my hypothesis of what will be his "day n nite" type breakthrough song.
Chip Tha Ripper- Feel Good
DJ Danger Mouse blew up the internet with "the grey album," a mixtape featuring tracks enfused with both Beatles Rock and Jay-Z Rap. The next big thing comes not from one of the countless faux DJ's who have attempted to recreate Danger Mouse explosion. Tom Caruana, a 28-year-old music teacher and producer from Brighton, England who spent two months stitching the likes of The Beatles and the Wu-Tang Clan to create "Enter the Magical Music Chambers."

Both of those links have lots to offer but this next gem holds a special place in my heart. Rad Omen made the most bad ass music video I have ever seen. Everything in it is just the way it actually goes down if that makes sense. And the fact that the main characters are played by fast food advertisement mascots makes me think we could watch this video in fifty years and be nostalgic of the way it used to be. Turn up your volume all the way and full screen it, because this is just so bad ass.
