Adam Ness – Have a Good Time (Ft. Jamila Woods)

Adam Ness and Jamila Woods create magic with single and visual “Have a Good Time.” With a gentle guitar riff and gorgeous rhode chords at its foundation, this track has a timeless feel, with simple lyrics, organic instrumentation and soulful melodies driving a natural performance from both artists. This might be the smoothest shit we’ve ever posted. Perfect vibes for rolling one up with someone special and kicking back. Check out the animated lyric video, and look out for Adam Ness on tour in your city with Chicago rapper Noname this month in support of his forthcoming album Sagittarius Vol. 1 set for release in March.

Bubblin’ from his recent Grammy win, Anderson .Paak tore the roof off a sold out Fillmore in Denver on Wednesday night. From silk screens to smoke blasts, the visual energy of Cheeky Andy’s Beach Club Tour matched the famously infectious Paak and the Free Nationals. The set list revolved around Oxnard, with a generous heap of hits from Venice and Malibu peppered in throughout. Paak was all over the place in the best way; whether he was crowd surfing, ripping the drum set to shreds, or dancing from one end of the stage to the other, he never missed a note or a step. The crowd adoringly matched his every word, “yes lawd!”s screamed regularly in exuberance. It felt like something of a victory lap for Paak, who after years of underground acclaim, is now indisputably a superstar.

Shouts out to opener Tayla Parx who should’ve gotten more love for her amazing set. Check out the photos below, captured by Blake Jackson.

Dreamville Records new sensation J.I.D. has been making waves for a few years now ever since he linked up with fellow ATLiens Earthgang and subsequently J.Cole and his label. He’s been growing ever since, gaining more acclaim last year as a standout XXL Freshmen in an era where true lyricism is continually overlooked. Late last year J.I.D. released an excellent sophomore album Dicaprio 2, which solidified his status as one of this generations brightest talents. J.I.D. is on the road in support of the album, and we caught his sold out performance at the intimate Fox Theatre in Boulder, CO, one of the cities lucky enough to catch the tour. The young artist delivered a stellar set, commanding the attention of every person in the packed room as he performed a barrage of new material, as well as a few choice cuts from his debut, The Never Story.
