[NEW MUSIC] YOUNG THUG RELEASES NEW EP WITH NICKI, UZI & 21 SAVAGE

Young Thug- one of the pioneers of mumble rap just released new music. Young Thug has dropped his new EP, titled Hear No Evil.

 

The songs include multiple features by Nicki Minaj, 21 Savage, and Lil Uzi Vert. With some of the most powerful rappers in the game, the EP is going to kill us all.

He has also shared a sign language video for the Nicki collab “Anybody.”

 

Check out “Anybody” here:

My favorite part of this song is the combination of the word, “morning” and “moaning.” Young Thug has always been known to be one of the more creative acts in rap. Nicki’s verse also adds a lot to this song. It is a different flow for Young Thug that works and creates variety on this short EP.

 

Check out “Up” featuring Lil Uzi Vert:

Check out “Now” featuring 21 Savage:

Even though they are not the greatest songs he has ever released, they are pretty strong tracks. Thank you Young Thug for making our Friday the 13th a little less unlucky.

KHLOE KARDASHIAN GIVES BIRTH AND GETS CHEATED ON

I know you must be sick of hearing about the Kardashians but some heated drama came out last week. Khloe Kardashian’s fiance Tristan Thompson just got caught cheating on her when she has a baby on the way. The girl is pregnant and she still gets cheated on. Not only that, but Khloe couldn’t get pregnant for years so she was naturally extremely happy that she is going to have a child.

The Cleveland Cavaliers player was regularly seeing a woman behind Khloe’s back and after he was caught kissing her, it was over for him. Apparently, her name is Tania Joyce Benitah. They were spotting sneaking out of the Four Seasons Hotel together.

Ok if you are about to have a baby with a Kardashian, you should know that everyone is going to be keeping tabs on where you are.

Khloe gave birth to their baby yesterday, April 12th, 2018. It was said that Thompson was in the delivery room. Other people in the room included Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian and Khloé’s best friend, Malika Haqq.

I guess they all had to settle their differences for the sake of the baby.

Overall it is disgusting to cheat on your pregnant wife. You can love or hate the Kardashians but no one deserves that. I hope Khloe gets herself together and dumps this guy- what a waste.

She really doesn’t know how to pick them

NICKI MINAJ JUST DROPPED THE BEST SONG OF HER ENTIRE CAREER

Nicki Minaj has been on a hiatus for about three years now and she is finally waking up. Just a week after Cardi B’s debut album, Nicki Minaj slapped us in the face and showed us who really is the queen of rap. Nicki seems to be gaining inspiration from the new females in rap and she has stepped up her game. For a long time Nicki’s verses felt uninspiring and overdone, but on these new tracks, she experiments with new flows and personas.

This Thursday, April 12th, 2018 she dropped two new singles, “Chun-Li” and “Barbie Tingz.”

Listen to “Chun-Li” here:

Listen to “Barbie Tingz” here:

Currently, fans are in a war about what is the best song but I think I am going to have to give it to “Chun-Li.” Not only are the lyrics amazing in this song, the flow and general feeling of this song are different for Minaj. I thought Roman was going to make an appearance on the track but it feels like she is doing a toned down version of him. She is definitely channeling a personality that is mad and wants vengeance- but is also above it.

The chorus is where the song really shines:

“Ayo, I been on, bitch, you been conned
Bentley tints on, Fendi prints on
I mean I been Storm, X-Men been formed
He keep on dialin’ Nicki like the Prince song
I-I-I been on, bitch, you been conned
Bentley tints on, Fendi prints on
Ayo, I been off, Lara been Croft
Plates say Chun-Li, drop the Benz off”

“Barbie Tingz” is also a really strong track that pokes fun at the new rappers in the game by stating that Nicki, Drake, Lil Wayne and Jay-Z were the original top three trendsetters. Is this a diss track for Cardi b and the Migos? Anyway, Cardi and Nicki have been in some drama lately due to a miscommunication on Nicki’s video and verse for their collaboration, “MotorSport.” I wouldn’t want to mess with Nicki because now you know she will drop one of the best songs in her career a week after your debut album release.

As she raps in the interlude,

“Oh, I get it, they paintin’ me out to be the bad guy
Well when’s the last time you see a bad guy do the rap game like me?”

[NEW MUSIC- “PYNK”] GRIMES AND JANELLE MONAE ARE THE ULTIMATE INDIE DUO

“A deep well” of new music might be coming from the indie electro-pop goddess Grimes soon!

She recently posted an Instagram that stated:

She has a new song with her long-term friend and consistent creative partner Jonelle Monáe.

Grimes has taken a break from music for a while to apparently screw her head back on, but the album will be coming soon.

She wrote in a comment that she,

“can finish [the album] fast and I have a deep well of shit this time, like sooooo many songs so after my album, I’ll be able to consistently release more music.”

I’m glad that her project is off the ground and the controversy with her label has settled down- she did, in fact, call them shit.

She apologized by saying:

“A lot of insane shit went down and I’m reorienting my whole life,” she wrote, adding “bahaha.”

I hope Grimes is okay! The most beautiful things can be made during your darkest times.

[THE VOICE FOR THE VOICELESS] THE “AMERICAN BOY BAND” BROCKHAMPTON

BROCKHAMPTON is a rap group that is not afraid to test the limits and cause controversy. Packed with great lines, impactful lyrics and controversial topics- their music says so much more than just a simple track. They switch it up from hard rap to light R&B ballads on their tracks which keeps the listeners on their toes.

They got their start in 2015 when they prevailed as winners of the VFILES Loud! Talent search in San Marcos, Texas. The members consist of Kevin Abstract (Ian Simpson), Matt Champion, Romil Hemnani, JOBA (Russell Boring), Dom McLennon (Dominique Simpson), Ameer Vann, and Merlyn Wood (William Wood).

They actually prefer the term “American boy band” rather than “rap group” which puts a funny spin on their image. They are collectively a compelling group that works with multiple graphics and visuals for their music videos to show their zany and childish spirit. They also dive into topics such as sexuality, which is typically taboo in the rap community. Not only are they talented, they are a voice for the voiceless, talking about the struggle of being a gay man.

They are basically Odd Future but better

They released their first mixtape All-American Trash in March 2016. Their full-length album Saturation arrived a year later in 2017. They didn’t wait long to release the sequel Saturation II in the summer of that year.

Their biggest success was the release of their album, Saturation III– the last installment of the series and it was their highest charting album to date. It peaked at 15 on the Billboard 100 and at the top five on the R&B/Hip-Hop chart.

Check out one of their best songs and music videos, “JUNKY” here:
