Drake’s New Album and My Music

What’s up everyone? I hope you all had a safe and fun Fourth of July Weekend. Right now, I’m just out in Orlando supporting the Thunder Summer League squad. I think the games are going to be on NBA TV, so make sure you watch all of our games this week.

Y’all know how much I like my music, and right now I’ve been listening to the new Drake and Dream albums.

On Drake’s album I’m really feeling tracks like “Karaoke,” “Miss Me” with him and Lil Wayne, “Light Up” and “Fancy” with T.I. It’s got some tight tracks and it’s a real diverse album; he went from Jay Z to down south with T.I. to Swizz Beats, who’s from New York. I know a lot of people had some negative things to say about it but I think the positive reviews definitely outweigh the haters.

Other than that, I want to let you know that I’m back to making my own music, and I actually made a nice little beat the other night.

I just laid down a track from an original beat that I think you’re all going to like. I’ve got stuff sampled that I want to finish but this was an original. All of my beats are a lot of melodies, loud kicks and a good snare. But this one is a mix between a party beat with a little D.C. flavor to it as well. It’s very up-tempo and it’s something that’s going to get your head bopping. So hopefully when I post it on my site you guys will enjoy it and give me some feedback. Stay tuned!

In the meantime, what are you all listening to? Anything I’m missing right now? Let me know in the comments section.

THUNDER UP!

  • Vinapoo

    Eminem's new album is definitely hot

  • Alicia

    Being that I know you're into R & B…Jagged Edge has a new song out called “Forever My Girl” that's really nice. Keri Hilson has a new one called “Hold Your Breath” produced by Timbaland. Trey Songz has one out too called “Take You Home.” Ne Yo's got one called “Champagne Life”. Shareefa who hasn't put anything out since 06 has a new one out called “By My Side”. Faith Evans has one ft Snoop called “Way You Move” and last but certainly not least Fantasia released a song earlier this year called “Even Angels” that you should really consider adding to your pre game playlist because it's real mellow and inspirational. Do you listen to oldies R & B…???

  • JB

    Big Boi!!! I've heard every hip hop album everyone has recommended so far.. and the new Big Boi is the best of them all. Great T.I. track on it too.

    that Big K.R.I.T. is great too.. also.. new Black Milk in September

  • Matthewschramko

    the new eminem album is the shit

  • Mark

  • Andre Mixon

    KD, check out Raheem Devaughn love and war masterpiece

  • Gtchaparian

    You are the model of what a professional athlete should be all about. What an amazing teammate . . . how many other NBA superstars are attending summer league games to support a group of guys that may not even make the roster at the start of the year?!? I'm a lifelong Laker fan, but you are easily my favorite non-Laker player, and if LA has some down years, the Thunder will have me cheering along.

  • Durantula Fan

    KD…

    I just wanted to get on here and express to you how much you mean to Oklahoma City. Whether you intended to or not…you are the idol of millions. My two boys are very involved in sports….both wear number 35 (guess why!)…and never miss any of your games or events. Thank you for being the solid person you are and for living right!

    Thunder up…can't wait for fall!

  • ThunderStorm

    Flying Lotus – Cosmogramma. jazz influenced electronica
