We told you Rae Sremmurd‘s Swae Lee was dropping something new today! While gearing up for the release of his upcoming solo LP, Swaecation, he shared this new tropical-flavored song titled “Guatemala” featuring his brother/partner Slim Jxmmi. Listen to it below.
LISTEN:
STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING and tune into these two Nicki Minaj songs that just dropped. “Barbie Tingz” and “Chun-Li” have been buzzing all over the internet, and her fans are losing their minds. As a real Nicki fan myself, I honestly can’t agree. I won’t lie I fell into the hype at first, but after listening I was a bit upset. I expected a lot more. I prefer “Barbie Tingz” over the other, and so would any true Nicki fan. Check them out and tell me what YOU think. Nicki’s a veteran and been in this game for years, she gotta represent!

Stay tuned for The Doughboy Project Anticipation! Newark’s finest, DJ Doughboy is dropping his second project, which is a DJ compilation album that featuring Pop and Hip Hop artists. The six song EP will hit the streets this summer and will feature great local talent. You won’t want to miss this one.
It took me years to depict the actual lyrics to Jay-Z and UGK’s “Big Pimpin“. I used to SWEAR it went “Big pimpin’, I be spending cheese” until my dad dissed me and told me the rappers were saying “It’s big pimpin, spendin G’s”. Thanks Dad if it weren’t for you, till this day I still probably wouldn’t make out what they were actually saying LOL.
18 years ago today, Jay Z released the banger and it still gets radio play. Everytime I hear this song it takes me back to all the old summertime cookouts and birthday parties I’d spend hours at with my cousins jumping on moon bounces and killing them at dance contests. When I found out this record dropped back on April 11, 2000 I couldn’t believe it. I was only 3 at the time!
If I had to choose some of my top favorite Jay-Z songs, this would definitely be in my top 10! Mainly because of this Timabaland-produced beat and the LIT video they shot for it. Jay and UGK had the hunnies, the bottles, the yacht, and they straight got their party ON. Check it out below, THAT is a REAL video shoot!
WATCH:
Lawand is a 20-year-old singer from New York who is clearly very talented. Lawand grew up with her mom, dad, and older brother in small town Kingston NY. Not only is she a singer, she is also a songwriter and knows how to play the piano and the guitar. Clearly a triple threat- she is sure to get her big break soon.
She just released a cover of “Love Lies” by Khalid and Norman which shows her beautiful voice.
Check out the cover here:
Lawand has worked her whole life to perfect her craft. She has been singing since the day she was born. Her interest in music started with her parents exposing her to the greats such as Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Billy Idol, and Madonna.
She started singing in church at only five years old under the ministry of her mother. She started playing the piano at the age of four and taught herself guitar. At the age of fourteen, she started to perform more regularly when she joined her high school choir, which included a solo every year. She also got the opportunity to perform at the pristine Carnegie Hall her senior year of high school.
Obviously, she is a singer who is dedicated and talented to pursue her goal to get into the music industry. She is a very versatile artist and you can expect to see more of her in the future.

WCW Interview with Professional Model Malika Miller: 4/11/18
Whats up you guys! We are back with another interview. This week I have the pleasure of Interviewing WCW recipient the lovely Ms. Malika Miller! She is a professional model straight out of Montclair, New Jersey!
What made you decide to become a professional model?
Ans: I worked at hooters my friend told me that I should be a model.
Has anyone ever said you looked like Amerie?
Everyone from Amerie, Michelle Obama, Alicia Keys (The most).
Any stalkers?
More annoyances really! I have a fair share of people in social media that ask me out and give comments such as, “I would drink your bath water”, “let me take you all around the world.”
Do you have any best friends?
My younger brother. He is really smart. I go to him for brain power. He is the genius of the family. I don’t have a whole lot of friends but I have my tight group of girls.
I call my best friend “wifey!” People tend to think because I call her wifey that means we’re gay when its not even like that. She tells me the truth and wants the best for me. I have different friends for different things.
I have my girl Rockel, she’s the Doctor of the crew. For instance, if there is something wrong with you she will call the Doctor for you or get you to the hospital herself. I have Laura who I’ve known for years and she has a great ethic and we feed off each others energy.
What happened to basketball?
TCNJ was D3, I had one D1 offer but it wasn’t official. It was just a visit. I went to TCNJ because it was hard to get in there. My SATS were trash. My high school coach was a big push in getting me in. I didn’t have a good relationship with the coach at TCNJ. I sort of felt they were racist and did not like the coaching style. I would ask questions about a play and they would tell me to be quiet. I would be considered to have an attitude. It just wasn’t meant to be but that was fine because it led me to where I am now!
Obviously, you are a successful model! What advice would give you someone trying to be a model?
I would never tell anyone not to do anything. I just think the model industry is suggestive. Someone who you think is beautiful may not get a contract but someone who you think is not attractive may make millions. It’s about timing!
Do you have a heavy interest in music?
I started working with artists and dabble in creative management. I love R&B and didn’t get into rap until middle school. My itunes are all over the place. From Britney Spears to OJs to Kodak Black.
Who stands out to you?
I love OnlyJahmez! I love his sound! I love how weird he is! I love how hard he works! I love twenty one Savage and Kodak too but I still listen to Brandy and Alicia Keys. I work out to Teddy Pendergrass. People think I would be working out to Bobby Shmurda!
Where can we see you next?
I just did a spread for Manhattan Bride Magazine which is out now! I am also involved in New Era Fitted Cap Campaign which involved Asap Ferg and many more.
What does Ms. Malika look for in a mate?
Consistency and communication. It’s not easy to find that right now!
