‘The Melodic Blue’ is presented to fans in its deluxe version by Baby Keem

Baby Keem seems to be one of those artists that we are all supposed to like and respect. There is no doubt that the Las Vegas rapper has shot to fame over night, despite the fact that he released EPs and singles before his breakout single “ORANGE SODA.” Keem is set for greatness, and it is without a doubt that he possesses all the qualities that will enable him to attain such lofty status. As quirky and memorable as his lines are, the squeaky and mysterious manner in which he delivers his vocal delivery is also memorable. The way he drops quotables at an impressive rate, he makes his music quotable, and he is a talented producer as well. There is no doubt that every Keem song has its own unique sound. As a result of his close relationship with his cousin Kendrick Lamar, his career is certain to be pushed even further in the future. In addition to the deluxe version of The Melodic Blue, which will be available for a limited time, the 22-year-old rapper also brings us some additional songs for the upcoming Halloween.

As you may have missed earlier in the year when it was announced that Keem’s debut album had been certified gold by the RIAA, then this should come as no surprise to fans given all the impact the album had on the music industry when it was released earlier this year. “I don’t think there is anything like it right now in music, at least not in my opinion,” the Vegas-based artist told Billboard back in September. “I took my time recording every vocal part. During that period of time, I struggled through a lot of things, just learning and growing as a man.” Moreover, he went on saying that he really wanted to make sure he gave people what they really needed, not what they wanted to hear, but what they needed to hear. It would be possible to say that if it were up to some people, it would be easy for me to just make one or several batches of ‘Orange Soda’ and call it a day.”

IDK releases a brand new single titled “Monsieur Dior”

IDK releases a brand new single titled “Monsieur Dior”

At the moment, IDK is touring with Pusha T as part of Pusha T’s “It’s Almost Dry Tour.” On October 28, the Maryland-born singer-songwriter treated fans to “Monsieur Dior,” a beautifully crafted single. In this track, samples are taken from “Huit Octobre 1971” from the French jazz band Cortex, a band which is well known to hip hop fans as part of MF DOOM’s “One Beer” record. A video accompanying the song “Monsieur Dior” includes clips of IDK at Howard University’s Homecoming as well as Dior’s show at the Paris Opera House as the lyrics provide a soundtrack to his incredible experiences:

The Simple album was released back in May by IDK and Kaytranada, and it featured eight tracks and only two features, which were from Mike Dimes and Denzel Curry. It was preceded by a well-received lead single featuring Denzel Curry, titled “Dog Food,” which was released prior to the album’s release. As a result, fans have been able to get a glimpse of the official videos for a number of tracks from the project, including “Dog Food” and “Breathe.” However, shortly afterward, the rapper who was described as “shooting my shot” returned to delight fans with two more smooth songs, “Drive” and “Free Slime,” which eventually culminated into an EP he titled W13.
