Listening to the deluge of mixtapes and free mixes from hip-hop artists and electronic producers alike is often an insurmountable task. That’s why we scour Datpiff, LiveMixtapes and beyond, separating the wheat from the chaff each week.

SKINNY FRIEDMAN
WACKS RAP MIX

Skinny’s becoming a regular fixture in this column, and his latest mix, while brief (it clocks in at under half-an-hour), is another reason why you need to make sure you’ve hit that “Follow” button on Soundcloud. Touted as a “Rap Mix,” Skinny rounds up a few recent highlights (Future’s three stacks impression and the man himself on ‘Watchutola’, YG’s awkwardly romantic ‘Me and My Bitch’, 100s unfuckwithable ’10 Freaky Hoes’) and hooks them together with packing tape, fairy dust and a touch of Super Mario World.

Generally this column tends to be a set of rap “mixtapes” and then a handful of dance blends, so it’s actually refreshing to hear that at least one person hasn’t forgotten that you can actually mix rap too, you just have to be a bit smarter about it.
