These include features from Big Moochie Grape, Lil Thad, ATM Rich Baby, Glockianna, Dubba C, and one of his fellow QC labelmates, Gloss Up.

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.

It is expected that Tink will have a very busy year in 2023. She released her latest sensual track and video, “Toxic,” over the weekend. A soundtrack from the musical Chicago was used to inspire the video directed by Josh Jones. As she delivers her lyrics about a destructive relationship, the 27-year-old star refers to the infamous “Cell Block Tango” scene as she delivers her opening line:
“I listen to [‘Toxic’] every day because it puts me in that mindset,” Tink said in a press release. “My favorite thing to do is see the girls pop their asses, and this sets the tone for the year. The video was created as a result of the patterns we all see in relationships of different kinds, those unhealthy cycles.”
Earlier this year, the Illinois-born artist released his Pillow Talk album, a 16-song project that included guest performances from Russ, Toosii, Layton Greene, 2 Chainz, Fabolous, Muni Long, and G Herbo. Prior to the release of the album, singles such as “Cater” and “Goofy” featuring 2 Chainz were well received.
