    [Audio] XV – “Swervin” (Clams Casino Remix)

    K-Lis

    The Lil B phenomenon became tiresome really fast, didn't it? I still enjoy my cooking dance as much as the next, but to be honest, I prefer to get my Based God swag on in concept rather than by execution. All due respects and there are many, the things B says and the movement surrounding him is much more interesting than the music he actually makes.

    That is, with exception, anything that has origins in Clams Casino's laptop, the synth-beat mastermind behind not only Lil B's musical reign but other Bay Area artists like Soulja Boy and Main Attrakionz. Clammy dropped this remix of "Swervin" a while ago through his twitter and I've been looooving it since. The original can be found on XV's recent mixtape Zero Heroes.

    Stream "Swervin" as well as "All I Need" (from Clams's instrumental mixtape) below, then click-click download if you dig them.

    [Music] Nickelus F feat. XV – Shine On

    Shine On

    Download: Nickelus F Feat. XV- Shine On

    Nickelus F (formerly Nick Fury) has been around for some time. I first discovered him on one of Drake's older mixtapes and as things progressed, I started to notice him more and more. He started out on 106  & Park (remember AJ & Free??) as a part of their Freestyle Friday series and went on to win 7 weeks straight. He's had a slew of mixtapes out since and I've come to trust him when I see a song by him come up. XV has been making appearances all over the place lately and recently dropped his "30 Minute Layover" mixtape. XV are the roman numerals for the # 15 at which the age he began to start making music. Originally from Kansas (he's not southern-styled) you can tell he's really about his city getting on the map when rhyming and I think XXL missed large out when they didn't add him to the 2010 Freshman List (but thats a whole other story.)
