On the World Cup anthem, “Morocco,” French Montana represents his homeland.

On the World Cup anthem, “Morocco,” French Montana represents his homeland.

Even though Morocco lost to France in the World Cup semifinals, French Montana remains very proud of the country he hails from. As a celebration of the Bronx-based emcee’s team’s successes yesterday (Dec. 14), the Bronx-based emcee released a song in honor of their achievements. As the track is entitled “Morocco,” it features production resembling Caribbean dance records with Arabic rapping verses accompanied by French production. In addition to the energetic song, a matching video has been released to go along with it. The video shows footage from France’s quarter-final win over Portugal. In addition, it shows a packed crowd of people showing support for the team on the streets of New York City in the aftermath of the game.

Further to the release mentioned above, French Montana also congratulated Morocco in a social media post. In the post, he said:

“After what we have done, my head is still gassed… no Moroccan in the world should feel sad today. We have shaken the world up and we have made history today. The first time this was done. There is no greater feeling of pride than that of the whole Moroccan team and the entire country as a whole. Dima Maghreb.”

As of this summer, French Montana has released his most recent collection of songs, Montega, which comes as a collaborative effort with producer Harry Fraud. Montega, including the deluxe edition, consists of 14 songs. The album featured the features of Jadakiss, Benny the Butcher, EST Gee, Babyface Ray, Rick Ross, Quavo, Fleurie, and the late rapper Chinx. “Unforgettable” was already extremely successful in 2021 when they released their excellent album Their Got Amnesia, which later on captured the attention of millions. According to news reports, he’s currently working on what will mark the sixth installment of his infamous Coke Boys series, an upcoming project that is expected to include drops like “I Got a Feeling” a collaboration between DThang and Tdot2Oppy, “Yes I Do,” “Fenty” featuring NAV, “Slidin” alongside Ayoub, and “Whipp’n It Slowly.” It has yet to be determined when that project will be released.

A new song from Juice WRLD deals with sleeping paralysis called “Face 2 Face”

A new song from Juice WRLD deals with sleeping paralysis called “Face 2 Face”

Juice WRLD fans have already been treated to a number of singles this year, including “Bye Bye” with Marshmello and “In My Head.” A brand new music video from Grade A Films was released today (Dec. 15) for a track entitled “Face 2 Face.” Steve Cannon directed and edited the cinematic video, which is an artistic rendition of the experience of sleep paralysis. In the track, Juice WRLD describes his most intimate thoughts during a severe episode:

An explanation of sleep paralysis is shown at the end of the video clip in order to provide additional context. When falling asleep, one is temporarily unable to move or speak. As these episodes consist of troubling hallucinations and a sensation of suffocation, the individuals remain conscious throughout, despite experiencing troubling hallucinations.

Earlier this year, Juice WRLD fans got a chance to enjoy his second posthumous release and his fourth studio album Fighting Demons, which was released back in December. There are 18 tracks in total on the album, with featured artists including Justin Bieber, Polo G, Trippie Redd, and BTS member Suga. Due to the fact that 119,000 equivalent album-equivalents were sold in the first week of release, the project has secured the No. 2 spot on the Billboard 200 chart. In later months, the album’s official deluxe upgrade was released, which added five new tracks to the original album.
