Though Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky hasn't been as busy during 2014 as many of his peers have been, he's intent on having the last word on the entire year with his long-awaited new track "Pretty Flacko 2," produced by Nez & Rio, which you can check out below.

Just yesterday, experimental hip-hop producer Flying Lotus shared a new track from the upcoming re-release of Grand Theft Auto V called "Medication Meditation," featuring Krayzie Bone. Today, FlyLo is back with "Masquatch," another weird yet incredible song from the soundtrack, featuring underground hip-hop visionary DOOM (a.k.a. MF DOOM, a.k.a. Viktor Vaughn, a.k.a.
