A New Year has dawned but ain't a damn thing changed for Southern Hospitality. We're going to keep on bringing you exclusives, new releases, mixes and just all round good music and crucially we have more events than ever poppin' off at the start of 2012! Therefore, this fresh 'Westbury Exclusive Mix 3' is released to coincide with our monthly party that will be blastin off this Friday @ The Westbury (if you haven't already hollered for guestlist – do so at guestlist@southernhospitality.co.uk) – and features the kind of music we'll be jammin all the way until 3am including freshness from 2 Chainz, Iamsu, Bobby Brackins, Cassie etc. and classics from the likes of Jigga, Common, T2 and J. Holiday. We gonna be on that rap and bullshit, bassline business all damn night! Hit the link for the mix and RSVP below!
Having created something as perfectly cohesive as Moonroof just this November gone, we really didn't think ISSUE could make something as perfect and as cohesive so soon after. But that Stevens family genius has proved time and time again to be an endless source of creativity, and Earl's youngest son has never left the infectious pro-tea, anti-drugs, always-positive zone he's inhabited since we've come to know him. If you haven't heard the first Moonroof then we suggest you pour up the Tetley's and indulge before entering the more expansive but no less soothing Part 2.
Malaysian singer-songwriter Yuna is brought to us by the people behind Dev and The Cataracs. But there's no glitz whatsoever here, just one of the most beautiful voices on earth. And paired with Pharrell's sumptuous, mature vibes here, this voice is likely to woo millions.
Terrace Martin just continues to put out beautiful music and this is something to vibe to whether you live on the West Coast or you're waking up to another misty London morning like we are here. Perfect.
Amen doesn't just have his finger on the pulse of new Bay Area music, he's the heart and soul, breaking new music from complete unknowns on his KMEL 106 show and making them relevant and popping. 'This Clap!' does just what it proclaims to do with a mix of the best of already popping, soon to be popping and long-term popping artists. Cop now!

It's actually impossible to overstate just how insane the bass is on Squadda B's remix of Sinjin Hawke's triumphant Shadows, off his impeccable debut The Lights EP. One look at the below waveforms should give you a hint at the battering your speakers are about to receive, but to truly appreciate please road-test with the appropriate wattage in the trunk. Madness.
Vallejo, California's Moe Green teams up with recent Atlantic Records signee Netta Brielle for what looks and sounds like his most accomplished song to date. Fly Commons handle the production and J. Sutherland presents the impressive visuals. Epic stuff.
ASAP Rocky pastiches the hood flick favourites for the video to one of his signature jams. This year is definitely for the taking and Rocky knows this…
A really quite perfect video for UKG legend DJ Q's new quintessentially British bassline anthem. Much respect to the homies Desparrame for the heads up.
