On April 7, Daniel Caesar will be releasing his much-anticipated debut album NEVER ENOUGH to the public. Fans have already had the opportunity to enjoy strong previews, such as the songs produced by Raphael Saadiq and Sir Dylan, “Let Me Go” and “Do You Like Me?.” As a result, the Canadian R&B savant returned today (March 15) to present the music video for the song it is currently featured in. There was recently a new clip released of Daniel Caesar running through a field symbolically never-ending, which was shot by Midman. There is a subtext in the song that croons about the tug-of-war that occurs between two lovers when they try to resolve matters:
Among the artists on Daniel Caesar’s last full-length release was 2019’s Case Study 01, which contained ten songs that included contributions from artists like Brandy, Jacob Collier, Pharrell Williams, and John Mayer. In 2017, he made landfall with his album Freudian, which had a number of major hits including “Best Part” with H.E.R. and “Get You” with Kali Uchis. He has also been involved in some of the most recent collaborations that have emerged in the music industry, including “careless” with FKA twigs, “Peaches” with Justin Bieber alongside Giveon and “Invincible” with Omar Apollo.
The “Japanese Denim” singer Daniel Caesar seems to have already hinted at what fans can expect from his next chapter in his career in a previous Instagram post, which hinted at the direction his career is headed. “Hi there, world. In spite of the fact that I was born a few minutes ago, I am already learning,” he claimed. “We are not supposed to consider this a new beginning, but just a long way from where we were before. I see a lot of myself in almost all of you, and I find it very reassuring. I look in the mirror. As there are so many things to discuss, you will be surprised to learn how close we are. For the time being, let us simply refer to this as the beginning.”
The record label and management outlet behind the LVRN empire, Love Renaissance, has recently announced the release of the second installment of their series, Home For The Holidays, which is scheduled to be released in Mid-November.

The moMINTs project from Tobe Nwigwe was launched last month, and he has consistently shared visuals from the body of work. The clips have been well received so far, including “Lord Forgive Me,” “Get A Lil Bag,” “Big Cap” which features his wife Pharrell Williams, Fat, and Johnny Venus of EarthGang, “Destruction,” “Round Here (Parts 1 and 2),” and “Been Broke” Chamillionaire, starring Fat, and 2 Chainz.
A day earlier (Sept. 20), Nwigwe released the official music video for the group’s newest single “Mini Me.” Fat and Dame D.O.L.L.A. appear on the track, which sees them come together in a stunning garden for a live performance of their collaboration. The song begins with Nwigwe handling the verse:
In 2020, Nwigwe dropped Cincoriginals, a 14-track compilation that included Killa Kyleon, Black Thought, Trae Tha Truth, Cyhi The Prynce, Bun B, D Smoke, Royce da 5’9”, Big K.R.I.T., Fat, as well as his go-to producer LaNell Grant. It has been almost two years since he dropped loose records like “Wake Up Everybody,” “A Million,” and “A Revealing Freestyle.”
A full body of work from Tobe Nwigwe’s moMINTs project was shared last month, and he has been consistently sharing visuals from the project. A number of well-received clips have been released for EarthGang songs, including “Round Here (Parts 1 and 2),” and “Lord Forgive Me” “Big Cap,” performed by Fat, Pharrell Williams, “Destruction,” and “Been Broke” performed by Fat, 2 Chainz, and Chamillionaire.
It was Nwigwe who shared the latest video from moMINTs yesterday (Sept. 11), this time for the track “Get A Lil Bag.” Afflicted with help from his wife Fat, the video features Nwigwe getting his troops prepared for the day ahead. There are several bars about being prepared for battle that he raps on the track:
This is the follow-up to the legendary Cincoriginals compilation of 2020, which contained 14 songs featuring the talents of Cyhi The Prynce, Trae Tha Truth, Bun B, D Smoke, Black Thought, Killa Kyleon, Big K.R.I.T., Royce da 5’9”, Fat, along with the legendary producer LaNell Grant.

Following a few weeks of teasing, NPR Music today (June 30) premiered its latest episode of their critically acclaimed “Tiny Desk” series, featuring Usher’s performance. As well as a top-of-the-line backing band, Vedo and Eric Bellinger provided background vocals for the R&B legend. The clip lasted approximately 25 minutes and featured Usher’s renditions of classic tracks such as ,” “Confessions Part II,” “Superstar,” “U Don’t Have To Call,” “You Make Me Wanna…,” “Nice & Slowand “My Way.”
His appearance on “Tiny Desk” follows his co-headlining responsibilities at this year’s Something In The Water festival, making him one of the festival’s biggest highlights. As Usher left the stage, he honored Pharrell Williams, who joined the party and helped create the festival.
Usher has not released a new album in six years; Hard II Love is a 15-track collection that features contributions from Priyanka Chopra, Young Thug, Future, and Rubén Blades. A total of 38,000 album equivalent units were sold in the first week to make the album Usher’s eighth top ten album on the Billboard 200. In his opinion, he is already working on the sequel to 2004’s Confessions, which he has been teasing since 2019. A part of Usher’s rousing performance for Cricket Wireless included the release of “Confessions Part III” , a song that, as his collaborator Jermaine Dupri explained on Twitter, turns the material of its predecessor on its head:
A female’s perspective is presented in “CONFESSIONS PART 3”. This song tells the story of a girl who cheats on him and gets pregnant with another man’s baby. This leaves her with the choice of keeping it or aborting it. Having learned this, should he stay or should he leave?”
