The first offering from the upcoming Birds of Prey soundtrack is an all Houston affair as Megan Thee Stallion and Normani team up for “Diamonds”. Sampling Marilyn Monroe’s “Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend,” the video features exclusive footage from the film as well as dolled up versions of Meg and Normani stealing the show. At one point, Meg […]

Yella Fella knew he had one when he and Slim Thug linked up for “We Pull Out In Houston.” The Montell Jordan style vocal flip is reminiscent to a nearly bygone day where Houston found a fun period remixing any and everything vocally. If Big Moe and the Screwed Up Click started it, Z-Ro perfected […]

“We just gon’ have some fun this time around, XO.” Propain and XO spent 2018 chasing a personal deadline and then some with 7 Day Theory. The next go-round for the Hiram Clarke native off In Case We Never Speak Again dabbles in that fun beat switch that made “Trenches” one of the standouts from 7 Day. “Silly” doesn’t have our […]

Bouncing back never seemed so easy. Young Lyric shares the official video for her “Done” single, shot by ItsTru1 and co-starring NBA Youngboy. Fed up with her old dude after catching him creeping, Lyric tosses him out while letting the world know she’s on to more shows, more bags and then some. “You won’t ever get […]

Let’s do a quick recap, shall we? On Friday, Travis Scott‘s Cactus Jack imprint dropped its first full compilation, JACKBOYS with guest appearances from Quavo, Offset, Young Thug and more. Fans thought there should have been more than 7 tracks on the project but it’s a moment to build on something. They’ve released a short film, plus […]

It’s somewhat a two-for-one with Propain and Sauce Walka‘s “Get Out” video. For starters, the track is featured on both In Case We Never Speak Again and Sauce Ghetto Gospel 2. There’s symmetry between Pro and Walk, from the moment Walk gets into that wound up narration style delivery of his and Pro amplifies his voice with every punchline. For […]

That Girl Lay Lay is everywhere. You know this, I know this. And considering her “Supersize XL” track has racked up over 17 million views on YouTube, the youngest signed female rapper in history sits down with Genius to discuss her track and more for their Verified series. With the track all about the H, Lay Lay […]

After two successful festivals, teases from Don Toliver and Sheck Wes, Travis Scott, Chase B and the boys over at Catcus Jack figured it was finally time to release an all-out compilation tape. JACKBOYS clocks in at only 7 tracks but the gang is all here as Scott gets Lil Baby and Rosalía for a remix to “Highest In The Room” but everyone else gets individual […]

It feels like we’ve been waiting all year for Inayah Lamis‘s Storytelling Over Lyrics And Rhymes EP and on Friday, the wait was finally over. Clocking in at 12 songs and a little over 30 minutes, S.O.L.A.R features anthems such as Lamis’ debut single “N.A.S.,” “Best Thing” and “Suga Daddy”. “Anytime something impacts my life, I write it down […]

If you’re a Propain fan, you know the space between projects is a usual thing. The rapper, a marauder of Hiram Clarke in every sense of the word, will rap upon command but only if driven. It’s why last year’s 7 Day Theory stuck to the concept of creation as if there was really no tomorrow and utilized […]

Back in 2016, Lizzo dropped a colorful, pink video for “Good As Hell,” a song about being for yourself when it seems like nobody is for you. Now, eight Grammy nominations and one rather interesting night in Los Angeles later, the second video for “Good As Hell” is here, following the lives of members of […]

Weren’t expecting this one, were you? Sauce Walka unexpectedly dropped his Sauce Ghetto Gospel 2 project last night and it comes with plenty of heat attached to it. Months after going for the New York centric New Sauce City, SGG2 amplifies Walk’s general demeanor with his classic brand of braggadocio and high-level game spitting. Featuring Propain, Maxo Kream, 5th Ward JP, Lil’ Keke, Junebug, Young […]
