Benny The Butcher announced his upcoming tour on social media on Monday (March 13) “Thank God I Made It World Tour.” The tour, which is set to start in Baltimore in April, will tour four additional American cities before heading over to Europe, where the Buffalo emcee is scheduled to rock stages in Israel, Greece, Germany, as well as many more cities before coming to an end in April. It should be noted that along with the announcement, Benny also provided some humorous instructions about how to celebrate, including that you should buy tickets, make your way to the right venue, scream at the top of your lungs, and sing the lyrics as though you wrote ’em yourself.
In the interview that Benny conducted for the “Tour Tales” series, Benny The Butcher spoke publicly about how important it is to give fans a show that is second to none. “People come to see what I do when I rap over just the record and don’t have any vocals,” he explained. “At first, I never realized what I was doing until I started doing it regularly for two or three years. There is a greater level of emotion in that. There is no better way to express your feelings.”
The musician also provided some tips that he has learned over the course of his career regarding touring.
“You should be cautious about inviting them back into your room,” Benny The Butcher advised. “In addition, you should be cautious of these promoters. It is possible that they are attempting to scam you. There’s a variety of s**t to look out for besides searching out for violence.”
A few years back, in the year 2022, Benny The Butcher launched the fourth episode of his Tana Talk series. A total of twelve tracks were featured on that project, along with features from the likes of 38 Spesh, Diddy, Conway The Machine, J. Cole, Boldy James, and Westside Gunn. His Black Soprano Family collective was also involved with the compilation titled Long Live DJ Shay in the same year, which was named for the late Griselda Records producer of the same name. It is important to note that Benny has appeared on a plethora of songs, outside of his own releases, including G Herbo “Real Rap,” Maxo Kream “FOOTBALL HEADS,” Lobby Boyz “Praying,” Lloyd Banks “Living Proof,” DJ Drama “Forever,” and French Montana “RZA.”

The official soundtrack to Creed III was released earlier this month by JID. In addition to Proximity Media, Outlier Society, Dreamville, and Frank Brim, the body of work was executive produced by Dreamville as well. The first taste of the soundtrack was JID’s and Lute’s “Ma Boy” single, which was released at the end of February, and has been one of the biggest sellers ever. In a video presentation that took place today (March 14), the two returned to introduce the video that goes along with the song. With the new visual, JID puts himself in a boxing ring as he fires off his signature flow, taking direct inspiration from the Michael B. Jordan-directed movie:
I was delighted to hear that back in August of 2022, JID delivered his highly anticipated album, The Forever Story. This project features an impressive roster of artists including Johnta Austin, Yasiin Bey, and Lil Wayne, among others. Additionally, this project has tapped into the talents of many peers including BADBADNOTGOOD, Mustafa The Poet, 21 Savage, EarthGang, Lil Durk, Ari Lennox, and Fousheé. Executive produced on The Forever Story, as well as authoring and producing all 16 tracks, was longtime DJ and producer Christo, who had 10 credits to his name.
In addition, Lute has recently released a new album called Gold Mouf. There are 13 tracks contained in this offering, with appearances by labelmates such as Cozz, JID, and Ari Lennox, as well as performances by BJ The Chicago Kid, Saba, Westside Boogie, and more. In a short period of time afterward, he released the official deluxe upgrade of the album, which added six new songs, including “Like Wine” a track that appeared on DJ Drama’s D-Day: A Gangsta Grillz Mixtape.

As I mentioned in my last post, EST Gee will release his new album, MAD, on Friday, March 17th. The album contains 14 songs along with features from Boosie Badazz, Young Scooter, and Kada. It was announced today (March 14) that he would be dropping off a new single from the forthcoming project which will be called “25MIN FREESTYLE,” a MOZ, Robawithit, and John Gotitt-produced offering which has the Louisville star letting out a slower flow while still maintaining a very menacing feel that fans should be able to enjoy right away.
As part of the accompanying video for “25MIN FREESTYLE,” which was directed by Cash Jundi, EST Gee can be seen in a lot featuring a number of high-end vehicles along with some other characters. In addition to this, we can also see the rapper who recorded the track “Lick Back” with a few of his associates in the recording studio.
The release of MAD will come in the wake of 2022’s I Never Felt Nun, which is a continuation of two releases that took place in 2020, I Still Don’t Feel Nun and Ion Feel Nun. I Never Felt Nun was a collection of songs that featured notable contributions from Machine Gun Kelly, Jack Harlow, Future, Bryson Tiller, and Jeezy. It is also becoming EST Gee most commercially successful work to date, with the 21-song album peaking at No. 8 and No. 3 respectively on the Billboard 200 and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts, indicating that the songs have been extremely well received.

A new song from Kevin Gates dropped on Saturday (March 11) titled “Trying 2 Forgive,” which is an emotional track in which Gates admits to his emotional and mental struggles.
Kevin Gates released his third studio album, Khaza, in 2022, a 19-track collection that included one collaboration with Juicy J featuring on the hit single “Thinking With My D**k.” According to Billboard, the album debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart with sales of nearly 40,000 album-equivalent units during its first week following its release. In the years since, he has kept his fans in the loop with the six-track FYP EP as well as several well-received drops such as “Breakfast,” “7:12pm (Freestyle),” and “Major League.” His contributions can also be heard on songs like Lul Bob “Brackz Yeah,” DDG “Love Myself,” Finesse2Tymes’ “CEO,” FL Dusa “Exhausted,” and T.I. “Active.”
As well as his sit-down with Khaza, Kevin Gates also provided one of the best sit-downs with Yung Miami that can be associated with his show, “Caresha Please.” In the specific session that lasted more than an hour, Gates gave the Floridian star detailed information about his sexual exploits and preferences, which included a 90-day ban on women who do not meet his Muslim-based standards and are not in conformity with them.
“Some women haven’t been taught properly how to clean themselves properly, so they don’t have the necessary skills,” he said. “They have no idea what a vaginal wall cleaning is, so they do not know how it works. The problem is that they do not know that tampons should not be used during that time. Inaccessible uterine lining gets stuck in their walls and causes odors.”

Angel made his return with the release of a new song in February titled “No Games,” featuring IQ and Haile. The self-produced album depicts the R&B veteran attempting to navigate a clearly toxic relationship.
Fans were treated on Wednesday (March 8) to a corresponding visual for “No Games” created by Ron Nengese. There is a great deal of dancing going on around Angel and his collaborators in this clip, as they are seated in different colorful rooms, surrounded by a variety of beautiful women.
Earlier this year, Angel released the follow-up to his debut LP, Woman. The album featured 14 tracks and features contributions from Giggs, Eric Bellinger, and Chaz French. In the following year, Angel released his hit single “Blessings”. In the wake of this release, he released an A-list remix which featured hip hop and Afrobeats heavyweights Davido and French Montana. Since then, he has remained one of the most prominent voices on the fans’ radar with notable EPs including his Teasers series and Quarantine, the latter of which was released in 2020 and featured five songs along with contributions from King Grizz, Chaz Marcus, and Slof. Angel’s equally impressive singles such as “BAD” by Wretch 32, “Deliciosa” by Elilluminari, in addition to a remix of Capella Grey’s smash hit “Gyalis” have raised hopes that Angel’s upcoming album supposed to be called Nine Lives will be released soon.
