The LOX (sans Sheek Louch) as well as Fat Joe and Rick Ross brought together together for the release of a new single called “The Game,” a Mike Kuz, Buda & Grandz, and Setfree-produced single which was released in collaboration with sports betting company DraftKings as a collaboration with them. Therefore, the title track of the album is replete with bars that speak about the hard work needed to win, beginning with a powerful verse from Jadakiss about working hard.
“In the Game” includes a black-and-white clip that features action shots from current top NBA players in action accompanied by a variety of betting terms that are used when placing bets. The clip fits perfectly with the moment of the basketball league’s playoffs, a time when competition is at its peak, since the league is just entering the first stage of this season’s playoffs. The artists do not appear in any of the shows, which is unfortunate.
After decades of careers of Rick Ross in hip-hop, it is amazing to see how all parties have managed to remain relevant in the industry after decades of hard work. Living Off Xperience and Richer Than I Ever Been, the latest albums released by the LOX and Rick Ross, respectively, were released in 2020 and 2021, respectively. In the wake of the release of Fat Joe’s latest solo album, The Darkside Vol. 1, which hit land in 2010 and led to a new era of hip hop, and has continued to go from strength to strength through projects such as What Would Big Do 2021 featuring DJ Drama, Plata O Plomo featuring Remy Ma, and Family Ties featuring Dre. As of yet, it is unknown whether or not there will be more to come after “The Game”.

It was announced today (April 7) that DJ Holiday will release a new single entitled “No Stress” that will feature Wiz Khalifa and O.T. Genasis. Keeping above the nonsense and enjoying life is the key message behind the infectious drop, as the title makes clear.
This collaboration was announced in a recent press release by DJ Holiday, who described how it came together.
“O.T has always been one of my favorites, and I always told him that whenever he came to Atlanta, we would make sure we got a chance to get one in,” he added. “The beat I sent him was destroyed by his hook, so I thought it would be instant heat… As far as I know, my Pittsburgh big dog, Wiz Khalifa, is missing! ”
YS on The Track, a New Jersey based talent who provided the booming production for the song, was also mentioned by him. “For weeks, I had been listening to that beat on the radio, but I really wasn’t sure how to use it. There is a flute on it, and I found myself mesmerized by it, and I couldn’t decide to who to give it to,” the HOT 107.9 host revealed.
“There’s No Stress” follows the Atlanta-based DJ’s string of notable releases this year, including “Wassup Wid It” featuring 2 Chainz, “Flexin” featuring Future, T.I., Meek Mill, and Stuey Rock, and “2 Seater” featuring Quavo and 21 Savage. It is to be hoped that DJ Holiday will be able to deliver even more before the end of 2023.

Scar Lip will not be playing games with her city when it comes to what she wants. On the first of February, the Bronx-born, Brooklyn-raised emcee just released a new single entitled “This Is New York,” one of his most aggressive efforts that he drew inspiration from the late legend DMX. It is for this reason that Scar Lip was able to take advantage of the booming production in order to send a harsh message both to tourists and paralyzed residents.
“That’s New York” offers a vibrant visual accompaniment courtesy of WhoTheWizz that complements the track perfectly. As viewers watch the documentary, they will see the rising star mobbing heavily in various parts of Harlem, such as on Frederick Douglass Boulevard and near the St. Nicholas Houses. Overall, Scar Lip’s music is a mixture of raw energy and gangsta rap, so it’s reminiscent of what was heard during the late ’90s and early ’00s among gangsta rappers.
She revealed in a recent interview with No Jumper (above) that the name Scar Lip was given due to a tragic event.
“On the day of my aunt’s visit, I was going to a football game with my friends, and she was basically telling me to get home at a certain time so that we could meet. It is our policy not to allow you access if you are not at home.” She began. “Although it was supposed to be my responsibility to arrive back earlier than the time I was suppose to arrive back. They responded by acting as if they were not home when I requested that they open the door.”
As soon as she was turned away, an older brother accosted her and demanded money from her. As a result of several refusals, physical contact was required. “After he punched me, I fell backward and began to see stars, then I passed out. It was in the street that I awoke. My mouth bled, blood was everywhere.”

There’s a new body of work by LuLu P called VOL.7 that was released on Saturday (April 1), which boasts a number of features including Soduh, A$AP Ant, and Fendi P. Other past collaborators like Ceez Neckmusik and E-Major Unruly are responsible for the production of the album, which includes 18 tracks.
As the first cut on VOL.7, “TOP 1% ONLYFANS,” opens the mixtape with a boastful bar and humorous flip that is sure to have listeners wanting to go back to the song after listening to it once or twice.
LuLu P has maintained a solid fan base over the past few years by constantly dropping full-length albums such as BIG 16 (All American P), Himalayas, and Thanks LuLu P consisting of notable vocal guests such as Larry June and Sauce Walka, among others. In fact, the Maryland talent turned up the heat even more by consistently dropping a steady stream of quality tracks over a series of months, which included “Did’em Ricky,” “Born from Pain,” “Slow Feet Don’t Eat,” “Expand the Market,” and “2 Hundred Dollar Socks.”
Besides being one of A$AP Ant’s most significant collaborators, LuLu P is a major force within A$AP Ant’s Marino Infantry, which has been making waves as much in the street fashion scene as in the music scene over the past couple of years. Alongside her fellow members, like Baby 9eno and Lil 2 Dow, LuLu P has made a significant contribution to the movement’s overall momentum through the release of her well received albums Infantry Warz, Enter the Infantry and Enter the Infantry, Vol. 2. The singer is also one of Marino Infantry’s most prominent faces at their pop-ups and concerts all over the country, where he has been a prominent face.
