Chiddy Bang x The Hood Internet – Friday (On My Way)
54 days

Before I even got a chance to listen to the song, I happened to scroll through the comments on this video and there seemed to be a resounding push back from the YouTube crowd on this one. Although I gasped at first (how could my first hardcore fanboy duo do ANYTHING wrong), after giving this a couple of listens I can understand where the criticism is coming from. If you’re expecting a genre-bending mindblowing Xaphoon Jones produced track a la The Swelly Express look elsewhere. With production from mashup aficionados The Hood Internet, they employ that 2002 autotune that no one missed on Chiddy’s vocals (that are entirely too quiet); in short, this one is a bit off the mark for me. Keep in mind that “a bit off the mark” for Chiddy Bang is still better than 99.999% of the other stuff that’s floating around the internet so keep it here for a full download and video in the coming days!

Chiddy Bang – Paper & Plastic

This Chiddy Bang track was inspired by a Champ Sports & Converse contest in which people sent in strings of words from refrigerator magnets that Chiddy had to rap about. The phrase ended up being “ladies like the sandwich party captain” ( ) and Chiddy hops on a Xaphoon trap beat that could’ve been perfect for 2 Chainz to make a track that uses that phrase. The beat knocks HARD and is a free give away from the guys so pick up the song and enjoy!

Steve Aoki – Emergency (Laidback Luke Remix) ft. Lil Jon and Chiddy Bang
0313 days
It’s been quite some time since we’ve heard a solid remix from the brilliant Laidback Luke. Carrying the success from his “Speak Up” single featuring Wynter Gordon, Laidback Luke transformed Aoki’s “Emergency” from an ok track (personally) to an enjoyable one.
With sirens going off in the background Laidback creates a heavy drop with lots of dirty twists, which is what we’ve been waiting to hear from Luke for quite some time now. No questions asked, Laidback Luke is one of the most dynamic and entertaining artists the dance music world has ever seen (and we have always appreciated his immense creativity).

The Shameless Shuffle #001
1318 days
Welcome to the first official TNJ Shameless Shuffle. Every Sunday, we’re turning loose one of our author’s iTunes library on shuffle for the first 5 songs that pop up. Part of the idea for starting this site was making it a spot where you can enjoy good music, not always necessarily the newest and when your looking for those old jams, sometimes you just gotta let your iTunes go and see what comes up. For the first week, I couldn’t have been happier with my shuffle featuring CLASSICS from Goldfinger, Big Sean, Kanye West, Far East Movement, and The Postal Service!
Goldfinger is a staple of any summer playlist and there’s gotta be a few of you guys who recognize Superman from the ORIGINAL Tony Hawk!

For anyone who questions Ye’s production chops should probably figure out how he flipped a Steely Dan song into an entire beat and get back to me.

This is possibly one of the most played tracks in my entire library; it was my first introduction to Big Sean & right at the beginning of my fascination with all things Swelly.

Definition of a high school classic. I was a HUGE DCFC & Postal Service fan so this seems to be a fitting close to our first segment.

Chiddy Bang – Twisted
0337 days
Chiddy Bang is making some waves today with the release of the Mind Your Manners EP, a 3 pack of tracks which features the unreleased track Twisted as well as two remixes of the title track; one with a verse from Travie McCoy that we posted a lil while ago as well as the “Herve’s No One Like Me Remix” which I can’t wait to hear.
They’re gonna be all over the US in support of this one with stops in Delaware for the Firefly Music Festival with the Black Keys, Lupe Fiasco & The Killers, then making appearances at the Under the Influence of Music tour with Wiz Khalifa and Mac Miller before rounding out the summer with a tour of the west coast with FUN. Keep it swelly kids.

Chiddy Bang – Mind Your Manners ft. Travie McCoy & Icona Pop
1356 days
While the swellsters of Chiddy Bang have been busy riding the wave of success from their debut album Breakfast and playing sold out shows across the globe, they took the time to let Travie McCoy of Gym Class Heroes hop on the remix of their single Mind Your Manners. Travie fits in perfectly with the feel of the track and hopefully this might foreshadow some more collaboration in the future?

Keeping the world swelly one day at a time, Chiddy and Xaph just released the official music video for their single Mind Your Manners off their Billboard topping Breakfast album. The visuals are great and I’m totally loving the whole cameras in a circle effect that they’re goin for.

The Naked & Famous – Young Blood (Tiesto & Hardwell Remix) + Chiddy Bang Remix
0391 days
New Zealand band The Naked & Famous‘s platinum selling single Young Blood has all of the light and airy qualities perfect for remixing and the amount that have been done is staggering. This past week, Tiesto released his much anticipated Club Life: Miami compilation which happened to include a remix of the song done by Hardwell and himself. The song culminates to an arena sized anthem by the end with a big progressive feel that I am a total sucker for. I’m also including my obligatory Xaphoon Jones remix because no matter what anyone says, the man is seriously incapable of a bad release.
Enjoy!

Throwback – Chiddy Bang – The Swelly Express
0442 days
In order to understand where all of this crazyness I got for Chiddy Bang comes from there needs to be some context. I had just started moving from a love of acoustic/indie music to hip-hop and one of the first songs I heard was the Opposite of Adults track that everyone got their introduction with. I didn’t recognize it as just a party song but I was absolutely amazed that someone used a remix of Kids by MGMT which was one of my favorite songs. I immediately started tearing through Google for more of their stuff and I came upon their first mixtape, The Swelly Express.
There was so much unbelievable material from the production to lyrics that I was instantly hooked. If you’d like to have the same appreciation for the quality of work that is almost on top of the Billboard 200 chart right now with their major label debut Breakfast you must first see where they started. Take 41 minutes out of your day and I guarantee after a full listen through the mixtape you’ll be just as enamored. One of the top 5 song on my iTunes of all time is Never; sampling a song that uses on samples? Too good.
Swelly.
