“Let Me Go” visuals shared by Daniel Caesar

“Let Me Go” visuals shared by Daniel Caesar

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 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 we all know, Gloss Up, a rising star in the world of hip hop, released her debut album, Before The Gloss Up, back in January, which featured features from K Carbon, HitKidd, GloRilla, and more. In an announcement earlier today, the Quality Control recording artist Gloss Up released the official music video for the track “From Cross Da Way” featuring Icewear Vezzo earlier today (March 7). J.R Digital is behind the new video, which sees the two linking up in a parking lot filled with luxury cars for the new track. It is on the track that Gloss glides effortlessly over the beat produced by DMacTooBangin.

It was back in March of this year that she released her debut mixtape in collaboration with Gloss Records, Different Shades of Gloss. Among the 12 tracks on the album were appearances by both Fat Wizza and Paid Pat. As well as being heard on the recent collaborations of the “Shabooya” rapper, you can also find him on the joint tracks “GWAK GWAK” with Duke Deuce and “Real B**ch” with Lakeyah. 

As we reported back in January on Gangsta Grillz, Icewear Vezzo teamed up with DJ Drama for a mixtape titled Paint The City, which was backed by the rapper. It consisted of 15 tracks and featured appearances from the likes of 2 Kodak Black, Chainz, GT, Peezy, Future, and Jeezy. He previously released Rich Off Pints 3, which is the third installment in a series he started back in 2021, which has become a fan favorite among his fans.

In his latest single, Maiya The Don takes aim at the “Duties”

In his latest single, Maiya The Don takes aim at the “Duties”

The viral hit “Telfy” by Maiya The Don made her an overnight hit in October 2022, making her one of the most popular women in the world. In a weekend filled with new music, Brooklyn rappers came through with their latest single, “Dusties.” This track is a tribute to her roots in New York City, with a sample of Lil’ Kim’s famous “Magic Stick” song featuring 50 Cent, which is a sample of Lil’ Kim. The track also features an interpolation of Ice Spice’s breakout track from a few years ago, called “Munch (Feelin’ U)”:

Ahead of the release of the new track, the rising star Maiya The Don sat down on “The Zane Lowe Show” yesterday (March 6) to discuss it. “My first response when I received the beat from Pliznaya was, “Yup, that’s fine”’. Lil Kim is my fave, we both hail from Brooklyn, and she is one of those women who tells us that God is a woman. In my mind, I am thinking, “Certainly, I am there.” Obviously,” she replied.

Additionally, Maiya The Don discussed some of her greatest musical influences in the interview. “Missy [Elliott] is a great inspiration to me,” she said. “I feel as though I recognize myself in her. She is a person with whom I can relate on so many levels. Missy is my favorite; I adore her to pieces. However, most of my favorite rappers are boys since my earliest memories of hip hop are when I received my first iPod at the age of 7. All the music was provided by my uncle, who was 16 years old at the time. In other words, it’s like Rick Ross, JAY-Z, Lil Wayne, everybody.”

As a debut artist, Maiya started out with loose tracks such as “ILL NANA,” “222,” and “CHIRAQ.” Since then, she has been featured on tracks such as “Conceited” with Lola Brooke alongside Flo Milli and “No More Crying” with Lay Bankz.

As far back as October of 2022, Big Boss Vette joined forces with Rocco & Dr. Luke Did It Again! Known for the infectious single “Pretty Girls Walk,” a homage to women who refuse to let obstacles external to themselves hinder them from achieving what they desire.

In a similarly impressive remix released on Friday (March 3), the St. Louis artist teamed up with Coi Leray, and the featured artist isn’t wasting any time in talking about how proud and grateful she is to be a woman.
As she built her portfolio over the years, Big Boss Vette released cutting-edge tracks such as “Outside,” “Dog A** N**ga,” “How TF,” “No Fakin,” and “Snatched,” the latter of which was viewed more than 2 billion times on TikTok and more than 5 million times on YouTube.

As part of a recent interview with 21Ninety, Big Boss Vette discussed how she came up with the concept for “Pretty Girl Walk.”

“I wanted to create an uplifting song that pretty girls around the world could jam to,” she stated. “The moment the hook was created and the beat was introduced, it was clear that this is going to be it, this is going to be a great song. As far as I can tell, it appears to be a commercial song, one of those movies, or something like that.”
