YN Drako recently released a banger for the Summer. For me, it’s been the kind of song that I can just throw on anytime and get amped up. The beat is electric and exciting, with a huge synth and bumping bass.
Gumbo is a culture-conscious cannabis company. They are family-run and black-owned. The brand recently hosted a huge festival on 4/20 and some prolific artists showed up. Fat Joe, Remy Ma, Jadakiss, Moneybagg Yo, Chinese Kitty, Lola Brooke, YTB Fatt, and Tripstar to name a few.
“Heart Strings” is a self-assured banger. The supercharged beat is produced by SK808, with an intoxicating electronic synth melody, a catchy lead, and some really unique drums. Kenarri flies through the beat with a harmonic flow and confident delivery.
Drake is a colossal force in the music industry. The release of “Search and Rescue” has created a huge buzz among fans, who are surprised and delighted at the release.
LIFE IN HELL by Lancey Foux is a vibrant voyage through this entrancing 1-hour and 5-minute soundscape; a journey of emotional turmoil, inner conflict, and learned lessons.
Damn. I know a cultural moment when I see (or hear) one. Listening to energizing EDM songs from Marshmello as an adolescent (let me put y'all on), hearing aggressive Trap beats from Southside (you know this one) as an older teen, and resonating with the words of Polo G as a young adult (this one is gr8); all of these creators have come together with this one, and in a way that really resonates with a younger side of myself.
“gahdamn” is a futuristic, hype Hip hop song fresh from artist Yung Heir. It runs for approximately 2 minutes and 10 seconds and was released 5 days ago (October 11th, 2022). The beat is wonky and spaced out, with a synth that makes you feel like you’re on the Round-Up at the fair with its distortedness.
Days prior to October 11th, 2022, I had heard the phrase “I took the wock to Poland” uttered in an assured, vibrato tone all around me. I was beginning to lose my sanity as I stayed up into the late hours of the night, pondering what such a statement could mean; to me, to my family and friends, to the world at large, the future of humanity. It only took 1 minute and 28 seconds until my life was changed forever.
On July 21st, 2023, Jet Rogers gave us a 13-track set of pure vibes. The project has sick features from Apex 3400, 10cellphones, Ducey Gold, Nobodyk, and TommyxBo. They add explosive energy, making the whole thing feel like a movement, not just an album.
