Hip Hop Websites - Legality In Playing Music

    I see tons of the biggest and most successful hip hop websites, e.g.
    http://hiphopremix.com, http://nobodysmiling.com, they always
    have the same new tracks.

    You can only listen to them.

    I'm wondering how they first of all know all these new tracks are coming out.

    Second, I want to know if it's actually legal.

    Is it possible they are cooperating with labels to some degree.

    They have nothing else that would be considered illegal on there sites.

    What am I missing?

    They very well could be cooperating with the labels to create a buzz. If they all have the same new tracks I suspect that they were given the tracks by the labels.
