Filip Filipi - 624 (feat. Jai Paul)

Hot off the heels of his recent charity work with Boj za Kosovo, our favourite Serbo-Canadian Filip Filipi has hit us up with another brand new track from his upcoming mixtape 'Life, $$$ & Cashmere'. '624' is Filipi's own interpretation of Jai Paul‘s 'Jasmine' and clocking in at just under two minutes,  it clearly isn't the longest track. However, though the track does leave the listener wanting more, it is for all the right reasons. Filipi's flow is tight, his lyrics are sharp and seductive and topping it all off is Jonathan Lee's stellar production. It just a shame there's no second verse...nevertheless the track is available for FREE download here and is a must listen for hip-hop fans.

Filip Filipi - Revolutionary Etude In D Minor

Serbo/Canadian Rapper Filip Filipi has got back in touch to share his latest project with us. In an unusual move, he's taken some time out from providing vocals in favour of working on his production skills. In tandem with musician Jonathan Lee, he has created the instrumental track 'Filip's Revolutionary Etude In D Minor'. Cumbersome titles aside, the track shows real promise and is without a doubt a solid hip-hop instrumental. All in all there's some serious potential to this instrumental side project and though Filip Filipi has promised he'll get back to focusing on rapping soon, let's hope this isn't the last we hear from him on the production side of things.
Check the track and download for FREE below.

Filip Filipi - Big City Chaser (feat. Mansions On The Moon)

I'm normally a fan of, well...Serbian/Canadian rap......and Filip Filipi's laid back and loose rhythm structure and lyrical construction wouldn't normally suit my style (more of a Kweli and Mos Def man I spose). However there's nothing like the tight production of Mansion On The Moon and The Neptune's Pharrell to spice up a track.
While Filip Filipi rhymes might not be the best, his delivery is solid and suits the overall chilled vibe of the track...factor in that it's a FREE release and this is an easy win for electro/hip-hop fans.
Check out the track below and grab the d/l for FREE here.
If Filip Filipi catches your ear then check out his harder hitting release 'Kosovka'...also a FREE d/l.
