A bit of social media buzz revealed that IDK is working on his upcoming album, dubbed F-65. “The F-65 world is my creation. According to the DMV star, it is a place for us to be open and honest, as long as we respect everyone in the world.” The project comes with a new track called “Radioactive,” which combines dance-inspired production with tough lyrics dealing with the realities of the streets.
“Radioactive” also features a matching video produced with the assistance of Meeks and Frost, renowned British filmmakers. During the video, viewers are whisked away to North London, where they can see the “Electric” rapper hanging out with fellow rappers on a council estate during his free time.
In addition to F-65’s arrival, the album will be preceded by USEE4YOURSELF, a 17-song body of work that includes guest features from Offset, Rico Nasty, Young Thug, Westside Gunn, MF DOOM, Lucky Daye, Jay Electronica, and more. A few months after its release, IDK would introduce the deluxe edition of USEE4YOURSELF which would contain nine additional cuts along with collaborations with artists such as Lil Yachty, Shy Glizzy, Trippie Redd, and Royce Da 5’9″. It was at this point that IDK, who has recently been signed by KAYTRANADA, blessed the masses with his EP, Simple., to keep the masses engaged. Additionally, fans have been able to enjoy a string of well-received releases that include songs such as “Free Slime,” “Monsieur Dior,” “Coal,” and “Drive.”
The artist whose most recent solo LP was released back in October 2022 was Duke Deuce, the third installment of the fan-favorite Memphis Massacre series he began back in 2018. You can listen to a sample of Memphis Massacre III below. There are 13 tracks on the mixtape and some of them are exclusive to Memphis. These include features from Big Moochie Grape, Lil Thad, ATM Rich Baby, Glockianna, Dubba C, and one of his fellow QC labelmates, Gloss Up. Besides the release of the song, he also released the visuals for the song “Mr. Memphis Massacre,” which was released back in December, was followed up by video clips for various cuts including “GLOCKIANA,” “ANNA,” and “BUCK THE SYSTEM.”
In the week leading up to last Friday (Feb. 10), Duke Deuce of the Tennessee native released his latest offering from the mixtape, which was a new video for the song “NOBODY NEEDS NOBODY.” As the previous videos have been dark and eerie, the new offering follows suit with the same idea, with Duke Deuce being placed in a cemetery with his crew to chant the lyrics of the song.
Memphis Massacre III will follow Deuce’s debut album from June 2022, CRUNKSTAR. As part of his legacy, he tapped a variety of talented names for assistance during the creation of the body of work. These names include Slimeroni, Gloss Up, Co Cash, Rico Nasty, GloRilla, Doe Boy, DJ Tootz, Babyface Ray, Juicy J, JP The Rockstar, Lil Yachty, and Dante Smith.
In a brand-new single available today (Feb. 10), Zacari introduces the masses to “Motions,” featuring top Dawg Entertainment partner Ab-Soul. As evidenced by their soulful offering, the musicians admit their mental health ups and downs, while reassuring listeners that they are successfully addressing the issues they face:
Approximately four years have passed since Zacari released his deCbut EP, Run Wild Run Free, which features a single contribution from Lil Yachty. Over the past year, the Bakersfield-raised star released the quick-strike Sol as well as notable loose cuts such as “This Woman’s Work,” “Edamame,” “Rainy Day” “Good Nights,” featuring Buddy and Isaiah Rashad, “Golden Dolphin,” “Bliss,” and shortly before the year 2023 began, “Restless.” Moreover, he has contributed to tracks by BEAM, SiR, Kembe X, Vic Mensa, DJ Scheme, and M.I.A.
Moreover, Ab-Soul released his long-awaited fifth studio album, Herbert, in December of 2022. SiR, Big Russ, Sean, Joey BADA$$, Lance Skiiiwalker, Jhené Aiko, and others appeared on the 18-song collection. It has been reported that the Carson star Zacari attempted suicide just prior to the completion of Herbert, according to Charlamagne Tha God:
“A large portion of the album was recorded, and the album was almost completed before I did what I did,” he commented. “I jumped as soon as I had finished saying what I needed to say. The decision was a leap of faith, if you will.”
It was only last month that Duke Deuce announced the release of his latest solo LP, Memphis Massacre III, which continues the fan-favorite series he began in 2018. In addition to the 13 tracks on the mixtape, the release has features from ATM Rich Baby, Big Moochie Grape, Lil Thad, Glockianna, Dubba C, and Gloss Up, another labelmate on QC. Upon releasing the release, he accompanied it with a video for “Mr. Memphis Massacre,” the title track of the project.
Earlier this week, a new music video was released from the Duke Deuce upcoming mixtape, which is the official video for the album’s lead single, Anna. The brand-new clip, which is a follow-up to his humorous “Buck The System” video, takes a dark and eerie approach to getting its message across as a sequel to that clip. “ANNA” opens with Duke Deuce chanting a hard-hitting verse in a dark underground room as he chants the opening lines of the song: “It was a priceless experience …
Memphis Massacre III follows up on Duke Deuce’s previous album, which was released in June, CRUNKSTAR. As a result, he was in consultation with a variety of talented artists for assistance with this body of work. These artists included JP The Rockstar, Slimeroni, Gloss Up, Co Cash, DJ Tootz, Rico Nasty, GloRilla, Doe Boy, Lil Yachty, Juicy J, Babyface Ray, and Dante Smith.
In the present, Fivo Foreign is reportedly working on a deluxe edition of his debut album, B.I.B.L.E. The artist has released a new song today (Nov. 11) entitled “1 On 3“, which he has collaborated with Jamaican beatsmith Rvssian. In terms of the production, it meets the requirements of Fivio’s no-frills bars about women, street life, and other topics:
It is worth pointing out that when B.I.B.L.E. was released back in April, it featured 18 songs as well as guest appearances from Quavo, Alicia Keys, Kanye West, Coi Leray, Queen Naija, KayCyy, Yung Bleu, Chlöe, A$AP Rocky, The Kid LAROI, Lil Yachty, Ne-Yo, Lil Tjay, and more. The fact that 29,000 album-equivalent units were sold during the first week of release only adds to the success of that album on the Billboard 200. Thereafter, Fivio continued to keep up his momentum with the release of top singles such as “God Did Freestyle” and “London Freestyle.” In addition to these hit singles, Fivio has also appeared on Kay Flock “Make A Movie,” Chris Brown “C.A.B. (Catch A Body),” Coi Leray “Mountains,” Skillibeng “Whap Whap (Remix),” Jim Jones and Maino “Slide,” Jnr Choi “Amused,” Rowdy Rebel “Paid Off,” Sheff G “Kiss Your Neck,” and The Game “Burnin’ Checks.”
