FOC: On Winter Break
What’s up guys,
Hope everyone is having a smooth transition back into second semester even though I know it is atrocious. Just wanted to keep all my FOC soldiers in the loop as to what has been going on this past week and the absence of posts. This past week I have unfortunately ran into some health issues which has distracted me from doing my job, that is, to provide you the freshest music on a daily basis. I will let you all know I will be OK but I have to have surgery this afternoon which will put me out of commission for a couple days but I as well as FOC will be back better than when I come back let me tell you. I got a bunch of things up my sleeve that I am very excited to share with you once they are finalized but you can be sure that FOC is coming back this semester on some other shit…no doubt.
With that being said I just want to let you all know that The Dean is going to be aight, I will be back, and FOC is about to take itself to the HNL so stayed tuned and keep it bumpin’…love ya’ll.
Yours Truly,
The Dean

Techno Tuesday: ‘Ton For Your Sins
What’s gucci everybody? This week’s TT is on that high energy ish with some EDM bangers that will keep you going and great for getting ‘Toned up in the gym. With 2 new Avicii bangers, one collab with the multi-talented NERVO twins and the other sounding incredibly dope (although I have some skepticism as to the legitimacy of this actually being a Avicii and Taio Cruz track but thats OK). Besides some insanely cool remixes and mashes of today’s hottest tracks I have an alternate download for some David Guetta new new featuring Chris Brown that is some damn Fire and the best song to come out of 2012 yet. Make sure you bump this set like there is no tomorrow and although it’s only Tuesday soon to be Wednesday set the ‘Ton to rage…I dare you.

Kid Cudi Performs “Teleport 2 Me” In Full In Australia (Video)
Cudi, one of the headliners of the Heatwave Festival in South Australia two days ago debuted the full version of his upcoming single, “Teleport 2 Me” and although this is obviously not CDQ it sounds dope as hell and I can’t wait for the official release of the single. Cudi also announced today that he is delaying the release of his upcoming album, WZRD from January 30 to February 28 which is a bummer but I think is a power move in building more and more hype for this project for his fans and it is a smart marketing move for Scott. Looking forward to hearing more tracks from the project and I am keeping my fingers crossed and keeping hope that it will be worth the wait.

“Pony 2012″ by Michael Francis
To be honest I had no idea who Michael Francis was prior to hearing this track but after one listen I immediately loved this guy. Michael takes one of the most underrated 90′s R&B tracks as well as one of my favorite and puts a little electro modern spin on it…how can I deny that? His vocals work perfectly with the innovative production of Cito On The Beat, making this track an absolute banger. I hope this dude pulls out more of these heaters and make sure you get an advanced copy of his upcoming Cold Heart Chronicles EP here
Shouts to P&P for the looks

“Celebration” by A$AP Rocky
New new from A$AP that sounds a little different from his usual stuff but dope nonetheless. Previously a collab with Chi-Town MC Jon James, this now solo version is a high energy lighter track that shows off Rocky’s persona in a different light but still bangs. Looking forward to hearing more from this dude and hearing about his highly-anticipated tour kicking off on January 26.

“Someone Like You (Mashup)” by Collin McLoughlin (Video)
Sorry to be a minute late on this guy but this video is a must-post. Collin does what he does best to the HNL on this track in which he mashes Adele’s “Someone Like You,” Katy Perry’s “The One That Got Away,” and Rihanna’s “We Found Love” in seamless and flawless fashion. All of Collin’s renditions are just so damn smooth and I feel like that voice can crush any song regardless. Jon Kilmer, a household name now in directing dope videos, does a great job on these visuals that accompany an awesome track.

“Stay Scheming (Acoustic Cover)” by Mike Posner Feat. Blackbear
At first glance this cover or Rozay and Drizzy’s track by Mr. Posner probably doesn’t seem like it would work, but this thing works in an awesome way. Blackbear croons over the Teflon Don’s hard verse and Mike creatively spices up Drizzy’s with the addition of some keys and his usual unique vocals. Great play by them also to do away with French Montana’s verse, ish is bougie as hell.
If you haven’t heard the original track off of Rick Ross’s latest mixtape, Rich Forever I have included it in the set so you can get a nice comparison to the cover, it’s real nice.
