Chicago rapper Noname tweeted early Thursday a tease for a new single titled ‘Song 32’ that is due out next week. This marks the first new song since the release of her debut studio album ‘Room 25’ that dropped back in September of 2018.
Noname first came to prominence with a feature on fellow Chi-town native Chance The Rapper’s debut mixtape ‘Acid Rap.’ Since then she has collaborated with Chance on a few other tracks and dropped her own mixtape ‘Telefone,’ launching herself into the mainstream.
In a follow up tweet to her tease, Noname revealed that she will be taking a some time off from making new music, presumably to focus on touring. Currently the Chicago rapper is on the European leg of her Room 25 tour, with U.S. dates coming in June, including a stop at Governor’s Ball in NYC.

Cardi B took to her Instagram page Tuesday afternoon to issue a statement regarding a problematic video that resurfaced over the weekend.
In the video that can be found here, Cardi is ranting on IG live claiming to have drugged men in order to robbed them. In her apology, Cardi says that the video in question is three years old and she expresses some remorse in her post. She writes that nobody is perfect and that she felt like she needed to do those things in her past in order to survive, despite them being wrong.
At the end of the apology, Cardi denies the claim she made in the old video that she drugged men stating, “The men I spoke about in my live were men that I dated that I was involved with, men that were conscious willing and aware.”
This has been the only comment from Cardi B regarding the situation, we will keep you posted if anything else follows this apology.

XXL has opened up the voting for the tenth spot on this years freshman class. The voting started yesterday and will end next Monday at midnight. Some of the artists that are in the running for the coveted last spot in include: Blueface, Bhad Bhabie, Flipp Dinero, Gunna, Juice Wrld, Matt Ox, Rico Nasty, Sheck Wes, and a plethora of other names.
The voting can be done through the website that you can find by clicking here, or by using the official hashtag on social media with #XXLFreshman. The tenth spot vote is a relatively new addition to the list, with past winners including Iggy Azalea, Lil Yachty, and XXXTentacion.
After giving the list a quick glance, I would say the betting favorite right now has to be Juice Wrld. No one off that list had more success than Juice last year. He had two monster hits with “Lucid Dreams” and “All Girls Are The Same,” and dropped his second studio album earlier this month.
The sleeper in the group is Blueface. He’s currently sitting in the top 50 on Spotify with the no-so-catchy, yet somehow extremely catchy hit “Thotiana.” His music makes zero sense from a practical perspective, off beat, sloppy production, but the man somehow pulls it off.
Who do you think is going to the coveted final spot? Let us know on social media @SloppyVinyl and leave a comment below.
In a series of Instagram posts, Big Sean revealed to his fans that last year he had struggles with anxiety and depression. The Detroit rapper spoke how he felt lost around his 30th birthday and is now improving after working with a therapist.
Big Sean talked about how he had been using meditation in the past to deal with his depression and anxiety, but felt the results were no longer working. He talked about how he needed to nurture his relationships with himself and the people he loves, like his mother.
He spoke candidly about his struggles throughout the three IG videos and seems to be doing better now. It’s pretty refreshing to see someone as big and popular as Big Sean to speak openly about his mental health. It may not seem like a big deal, but it’s nice to see public figures show human emotion and talk honestly with the fans.
Big Sean’s last album was released in February of 2017. The rapper celebrated his 31st birthday yesterday, in better spirits than his last.

It seems like Lil Uzi is left on his own when it comes to the whole retirement thing. Nav was seemingly in alliance with Uzi taking a leave of absence until his friend came back. But Cash ended that early by not only confiscating his hard drive but also releasing a 7-track EP “BROWN BOY” then announcing Nav new album. Now here we are a week later with Nav’s new album “Bad Habits“.
Filled with 16-tracks with features coming from Meek Mill, Young Thug, Lil Durk, Gunna, and XO labelmate The Weekend who also executive produced the album. This album is the same old Nav but there are moments where you notice the development of the brown boy. The stigma on Nav is he never expands his content, all he talks about him being the first brown boy in the rap game, being poor, drinking lean, fucking girls, and flexing his high-class lifestyle. But I feel like he is finally learning how to changes lanes without comprising himself or at least talking about the same things in a different way.
On tracks like Tap(ft. Meek Mill), “Ralo”, Nav pays his respects to Meek and La artist Ralo for being his role model and putting him on game. On tracks “Time Piece” and “I’m Ready‘ Nav gives you a slight glimpse into his personal thoughts in regards to his struggles and being doubted in the game. He even dedicated a track to his mom “Why You Crying Mama” promising his mom that they have nothing to worry about now.
The classic Nav is still there so you’re guaranteed at least one banger you can cyph to while also taking that late night drive. Young Thug and Nav should think about making more music together because “Tussin” is a good example for creating a track that lets both artists shine. I was highly disappointed in the track with Gunna ” Hold Your Breath“, two people who have many bangers together they definitely drop the ball with a lackluster effort. But the biggest disappointment was the track that never made it to the album, and that was “Bad Habits” featuring none other than Lil Uzi. The track wasn’t cleared for whatever odd label problems Uzi been going through, but thank god Jay-Z stepped in today and solved all of it.
This is a decent to solid project for Nav. It doesn’t really tip the balance of his trajectory needle but I guess for somebody like Nav that’s a good thing. As a producer, Nav can go toe-to-toe with some of the top one in the game, but as an artist, he still has a long way to go. You can stream “Bad Habits” on all major streaming platforms.
