Lil Wayne’s next album I Am Not A Human Being II, will be released on Feb. 19 and we now have a new single from the album after Cash Money’s DJ E-Feezy dropped it on Twitter tonight.

“Bitches Love Me” (also referred to as “Good Kush & Alcohol”) features Drake and Future on the track although Weezy dominates the song and utilizes a lot of autotune. Expect to hear this one all over the clubs and the radio.

Note: We currently only have a tagged up version and the producer of the song has not yet been listed. Listen below.

Music’s Biggest Breakout Stars Of 2012

breakout-stars-of-2012

We’re three days away from ending 2012– the year the Mayan’s math didn’t quite add up–with a bang. Before we bid this year adieu we’ve documented the Best Ofs for the past 12 months; so during the next predicted Apocalypse rears its false head, we’ll reminisce on theCrunkest Songs of 2012 or 2012′s 8 Most Underated Singles or the Best Songs of 2012. Our countdown continues with the 12 of Music’s Breakout Stars of 2012. It’s been a glorious year musically with diverse projects by promising new artists. While Frank Ocean‘s stardom is no surprise, who would’ve expected PSY to sing with Bieber‘s manager Scooter Braun? Meek Millsketched his name in cement as one of hip-hop’s brightest stars this year transitioning from mixtape storyteller to mainstream success. How good 2013 will treat these breakout stars is unforeseeable, but with raised glasses let’s all toast to the year of stars coming out (no pun intended).

1. Carly Rae Jepsen
Call me, maybe. CRJ may have been a bit undecided on if she really wanted her crush to call her, but there’s no maybe to the success she achieved this year. With the help of Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez‘s silly mashup of “Call Me Maybe” all eyes were on CRJ. If there was a song played or covered more than “Call Me Maybe” we must’ve missed it. Actually, there wasn’t.

2. Ellie Goulding
The year of the British singer takeover! “Anything Could Happen” mounted Goulding from an upcoming artist to the girl everyone couldn’t stop talking about. Her eclectic sound pulls from a mixed bag of genres heard throughout her sophomore album Halycon. Her “Bittersweet” contribution to The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 didn’t hurt her growing popularity either. Ellie is pure gold.

3. Frank Ocean
Success isn’t always achieved from over saturation and heavy promotion. Frank Ocean proved that. Channel Orange debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 with barely any radio rotation or label marketing. More than the music, Frank O. ruled 2012 because of his bravery in admitting to loving a man. Channel Orange will go down as a placeholder in measuring music for this year, but his transparency–will go down in music history.
