Our friend, Big Sean talks to our good friend, Mando Fresko, about collabos on his sophomore album, his relationship status (you’ll be surprised!) and a future mixtape with someone you may not expect.

He also talks PETA, explains how Mercy came together and how a fan inspired his song off his new album One Man Can Change the World. Sean adds how ‘progression’ plays a big part in his life, and says Kanye always tells him “I want you to be better than me.”

Watch HERE.

Our very good friend, Mando Fresko dropped a refreshing mixtape on his birthday as a gift to all of us and our ears.

It’s an eclectic mix of all of his favorite songs since… well the day he was born (or at least very close to it). From the first rap song he ever memorized to his favorite song right now. Michael Jackson, Kanye West, Aaliyah, Empire of the Sun, Pharrell, Jay-Z, Usher, Dean Martin, The Roots, Kid Cudi and more. Way, weigh, whey more – and they’re all good.

Me likey. Do you ears a favor:
Download: Mando Fresko – This Dude Named Mando (Mixtape)

We’ve all raised an eyebrow, pointed and giggled at the picture of the LA native who got DRAKE tatted on her fo’head so he knows it’s real. Well, Mando Fresko of MTV and Power 106 exclusively spoke to Drizzy about how he felt about it. His angry response:

“You’re an a**hole, for real… and you should never do tattoos again. And if I ever see you I’m gonna f*** you up…”

But at least he knows its real. Heehee. Watch the interview HERE.

After months of throwing around ideas on what our first official mix would be, we decided to go with The Native Tongues Mix. We collaborated with one of our favorite DJ’s and all around good guy, DJ SourMilk from the Los Angeles Leakers. SourMilk blessed us with not only one, but a two part mix! Over 2 hours of all the best from A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Brand Nubian, The Beatnuts, Queen Latifah and a whole lot more! (Check the track list after the jump). With the mix being as dope as it is we HAD TO release a LIMITED EDITION Native Tongues tee. The shirt can be purchased at www.somuchsoulclothing.com but hurry because once they’re gone, they are gone.

Thank you for the continued support of So Much Soul and the Los Angeles Leakers. Be sure to stay tuned for more mixed to come.

In the past couple of months, different dances have emerged from Los Angeles and have become world-wide movements. I’m sure you’ve “Jerked” or “Dougied” in front of the mirror before. (It’s okay to admit it, I do it all the time.)

This week’s special guests The Rej3ctz, are the guys behind that next big song/dance called the “Cat Daddy.” Celebrities like Justin Bieber, Willow Smith, Madonna, Ellen Degeneres have been seen Cat Daddy-ing and even NFL players are doing it in the end zone after a touchdown. (Except for the Cowboys… don’t think they know what touchdowns are.)
