Chris Brown is slated to unveil his highly anticipated album Breezy on June 24. R&B veteran Chris Brown recently gave fans a few new previews from his forthcoming album, including “Wheels Fall Off” and “Call Me Everyday” with Wizkid. Brown is back with his latest music video for “WE (Warm Embrace),” a Don City-produced track originally released in April. As he dances the night away with Normani, Brown introduces Normani as his love interest in the video:
Brown recently spoke with Big Boy about Breezy for Big BoyTV and revealed that he had recorded more than 250 tracks for the album. Brown said, “I have so many tracks. According to Brown, I had almost 250 songs for the actual project. “Yes, I was thinking, We need to scale it down and figure out what we can do.”
Earlier this year, Chris Brown released his last solo album, Indigo. It featured 33 cuts and collaborations with artists such as Lil Jon, H.E.R., Juvenile, Tyga, Juicy J, Nicki Minaj, Drake, G-Eazy, Justin Bieber, Gunna, and more. Following the release of Indigo, Brown returned with an extended edition featuring an additional 10 tracks and contributions from Davido, Rich The Kid, and DaniLeigh. This critically acclaimed and commercially successful album topped the Billboard 200 and reached Platinum status thanks to 108,000 first-week equivalent albums sold.

With assists from Wiz Khalifa and Curren$y, Guapdad 4000 assembles a dream team for a new music video, “Pose.” Wiz Khalifa and Curren$y contribute as well to the production, making for a feel-good video that showcases the charm of each rapper. With the upcoming single, Wiz Khalifa puts the spotlight on some production work by Drew Banga:
He has blessed his fan base all year with a steady stream of new releases. You can listen to recent releases like “Cheap,” “Fearless,” “Black Iverson” and “Ruthless.”

Earlier this month, Curren$y released his new album Spring Clean 2, which was produced entirely by Fuse from 808 Mafia.
Rae Sremmurd announced just before the end of June that they would finally be returning to record with their forthcoming album Sremm4Life. This album is set for release sooner rather than later. Fans can get ready to hear what this Mississippi duo has to offer with the release of their new single, “Denial,” a Kofo, Fridayy?, Fortune, and Bizness Boi-produced track in which they discuss their past relationships and present successes:
In a video directed and produced by Bryan Barber, “Denial” shows Rae Sremmurd and their significant others enjoying a lively getaway in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. Throughout the video, the artists can be seen on a beach, walking through the city, and watching a soccer match, among other things. In addition to Mike WiLL Made-It, who is a longtime collaborator, a cameo appearance is made by the head honcho of The Ear Drummers, Mike WiLL Made-It.
Four years ago, Rae Sremmurd released SR3MM, a conceptual body of work that featured three projects, that included solo projects by Swae Lee (Swaecation) and Slim Jxmmi (Jxmtro). A total of 27 cuts have been included on SR3MM, including contributions from Zoë Kravitz, Travis Scott, The Weeknd, Juicy J, Future, Young Thug, Pharrell Williams, and more. A feat of impressive proportions, Rae Sremmurd’s album peaked at number six on the Billboard 200 with more than 57,500 first-week equivalent units sold, earning the group a Gold certification in the process.
A deluxe version of Babyface Ray’s album FACE was released last month. It added eight new tracks to the project, in addition to collaborations with DJ Esco, Lil Yachty, Lucki, and more. As part of an upgraded release this week, the Detroit talent revealed a music video for “Spending Spree,” a Hendrix Smoke, DY Krazy, BMarch808Mafia, and Kayn-produced track that has Veeze joining the group and seeing both of them focused on money before anything else:
The accompanying clip for “Spending Spree” was created by Image Control Studios, and features Babyface and Veeze testing out some jewelry and money in a garage while a whip is playing in the background. Their crews can also be seen in an undisclosed location with their respective vehicles.
Face made its initial appearance in January with 20 cuts and the help of Icewear Yung Lean, 42 Dugg, G Herbo, Pusha T, Landstrip Chip, Vezzo, and Wiz Khalifa. After a year and a half after his well-received seven-track EP Unfuckwitable, Babyface Ray has released his sophomore project featuring guest appearances from Moneybagg Yo, EST Gee, and Kash Doll. In the same way as FACE, Unfuckwitable was later reissued with a deluxe edition packed with two additional tracks.
