Today marks the third month since we started our weekly Weekend Audio drops here on dubcnn, and we’d like to thank everybody for the positive feedback to this new feature. We’ve got lots of great tracks again this week, Clyde Carson‘s single with The Game, a Young Buck collabo with C-Bo and Brotha Lynch and some new Crooked I, to name a few.
Let’s set things off the new single from Black Wall Street’s Bay Area representative Clyde Carson, who fans have been patiently waiting for, as his solo album “Theater Music” has been pushed back repeatedly.
After a potential hit single in “Doin’ Dat” with Sean Kingston which never took off due to sample clearance issues, Clyde is now launching another attempt with his new The Game-assisted track “Cali State Of Mind“. A snippet of the track leaked a while ago, here goes the full track below:
Clyde Carson – Cali State Of Mind (ft. The Game)
The next track we have for you is a Dirty South/West Coast collaboration. I’m talking about former G-Unit rapper Young Buck going up to Sacramento for some of that Northern Cali fire. He hooked up with C-Bo and Brotha Lynch Hung for a track called “What Did Ya’ll Do” which was supposed to appear on his “Product Of The South” compilation, which for obvious reasons hasn’t dropped yet. The song is heat, Lynch destroys the beat, we need that album Lynch!! Check out “What Did Ya’ll Do” below:

Even though Crooked I stopped doing his “Hip-Hop Weekly” series, he’s been feeding his fans new tracks on a regular basis. He recently entered Vibe.com’s Best Rapper Alive contest where through different rounds they’re going to pick a winner. Crooked is going up against The Game in the first round. To view all the brackets, click here. We have his entry track for you, he raps over Kanye West‘s “Stronger” beat, check it out:
Crooked I – Stronger (Vibe.com Freestyle)
Next up is a track with an artist who’s been quiet for way too long. I’m talking about Sly Boogy from the I.E., who for a minute seemed like he was going to be the next to blow for the coast. He’s been M.I.A. for the last two years and we’re glad to bring you a new track that he’s featured on. He hooked up with up and coming Orange County group Ill-Lit for a track called “The Life We Live“, which will be appearing on Ill-Lit’s upcoming album dropping later this year. The track was produced by South Gate’s J. Steez, who’s been working with Ill-Lit for a minute. Check out the song below:

Let’s get to another up and coming group out of California, the production team Traklordz. The Bay Area producer duo is currently working on their album “Loose Cannonz“, which will feature guest appearances by E-40, Glasses Malone, Keak Da Sneak, Clyde Carson, The Jacka, Turf Talk, San Quinn, Big Rich and Ya Boy amongst others. A first single off the project has been leaked, it’s called “I’m A Hustla” and features Glasses Malone, Eddie Projex and Shu 100. Click below to check it out:

Last but not least, we have a throwback joint for ya’ll to close this week’s “Weekend Audio” update. Kansas City’s own Tech N9ne dropped his latest album “Killer” this month, for which we caught up with him for an in-depth interview (click here if you missed it). To celebrate the release, I went and popped some old Tecca Nina CD’s in the deck and decided to bring you one of my personal favorites as a throwback joint. I’m talking about “This Ring“, off Tech N9ne’s album “Anghellic“. You should all know the song, if you don’t make sure to check it out below:

We’re done, come back next week for more Weekend Audio!
