With the music side of SXSW beginning, you’d think that content would have slowed down a little, right? Well that hasn’t been the case this week, as we’ve heard more than enough music to keep us occupied from day to day. Those of you who are gamers out there can look forward to the release of Gears Of War: Judgment next Friday, with the official launch trailer making its way onto the Internet.
On the music front, we heard new singles from plenty of well known artists to the less known, including work from Lupe Fiasco, will.i.am, Birdman, GrandeMarshall, Rokamouth, Hudson Mohawke, Flatbush Zombies and more. If you’re looking to add a number of projects to your playlist, the likes of Hit-Boy, Bow Wow, Naledge, Bangladesh, Cashius Green, Yelawolf and Gucci Mane dropped worthy releases, including an exclusive album stream of Justin Timberlake’s third album, The 20/20 Experience.
Keep up with everything over the past seven days with The Week OnSMASH.
