In the past year, Jacquees released the Exit 68 mixtape for his fans. A total of 16 tracks were included on this project, with Trey Songz and FYB providing assistance. It was followed by his previous full-length album, King of R&B, which included 18 tracks and was accompanied by appearances by Lil Keed, Tory Lanez, Quavo, Young Thug, Lil Baby, Gunna, Summer Walker, T.I., Lil Gotit, and more.

Our roots are on the east side of Atlanta. I have always had the support of the Future behind the scenes, but now it’s time to make sure it’s brought into the spotlight for everyone to see. “He always tells me it is the right time for me to be up here, and he is always willing to support me,” he stated.

There is just a few days left until Christmas. Sevyn Streeter and many artists are sending out holiday songs and projects to help get people into the holiday spirit by sharing their holiday music. In an effort to get in on the holiday spirit, Sevyn Streeter was kind enough to unveil her take on Nat King Cole’s beloved classic from years ago, “The Christmas Song.” While the songstress delivers the lyrics to the original tune, she adds her own special twist to the instrumental to make it her own:
There was an album by Sevyn Streeter named Drunken Wordz Sober Thoughtz that was released back in 2021. There were 15 tracks on the EP, as well as appearances by names such as BIA, Dominic Scott, A$AP Ferg, Chris Brown, and Lucky Daye. Then, a short while after, she released a deluxe version of her album, which added five new tracks to the original album.
It was my pleasure to catch up with the singer of “Before I Do” who was in attendance at the 2022 Summit x AT&T last month, during which she shared her most valuable advice for the aspiring artists who attend events such as these. “Be who you are. Enjoy your time. Don’t confine yourself to a single type of thinking,” she said to me. As far as I’m concerned, this is the most significant piece of advice that I would give an aspiring artist at this time. An idea is always a sign that you have a purpose for creating it. Don’t let anyone stop you from being creative, and do not let anything stop you from creating.”

It has been a hectic weekend for Monaleo since she returned with her latest offering, the powerful ballad “Miss U Already.” This powerful new track finds the Houston native addressing loss, grief stages, and mental health issues through her lyrics. As part of the release, Monaleo has teamed up with John Tashiro to direct a performance video featuring a choir that she personally hand-picked. There are some soulful lyrics that she delivers on the track, as she pays homage to those who have been in her life but are no longer with her in this world:
“A few months ago, Monaleo opened up my recording studio and invited my followers to record and sing with me, which is how the song “Miss U Already” came to be,” she wrote on her Instagram account about how the song ended up together. “From all the submissions I received, I scoured through them and selected the nine that you see standing behind me. They came to the studio, mastered the song very quickly, and amazed me with their voices.”
A viral single by Monaleo called “We Not Humping” made waves at the beginning of this year. In the months that followed, she contacted Flo Milli to perform the song’s official remix. A number of singles from the “First Draft Pick” rapper have been released throughout 2021, allowing fans to enjoy them including “Girls Outside,” “Suck It Up,” “Lock It Down,” “Draft Pick” with DJ Chose, along with one of her most heard singles, “Beating Down Yo Block.”
