The GloRilla community is currently on fire. In addition to her recently released hit single “F.N.F.” (Go Together), the newly minted Collective Music Group recording artist has added notable collaborations and songs to her repertoire, such as “Tomorrow,” and “Blessed,” featuring Macaroni Toni and “JUST SAY THAT” by Duke Deuce, and featured on the CMG compilation Gangsta Art.
As of today (Sept. 23), fans have the opportunity to listen to the remix of “Tomorrow” known as “Tomorrow 2” featuring hip hop superstar Cardi B. According to expectations, the New York swagger matches her Memphis counterpart with equally scathing bars about her detractors:
In addition to the song’s audio, GloRilla also released a visual showing her meeting Cardi B in New York City. It is common to see both of them riding high-end whips through the streets, slipping into the subway system, and even breaking out some dance moves with their crew. There is also a chance that viewers will be able to see Cardi’s sister, Hennessy Carolina.
During a recent episode of “Big Facts,” GloRilla explained how future releases will demonstrate her versatility as
Normally, I’m not a maker of twerk music and anthems, but I accidentally did that with ‘F.N.F.’. That wasn’t my intention, but it turned out that way. As a result, a lot of people are expecting that from me, but I have a different kind of music in store for them.”
In his new single “Amazing,” Stefflon Don collaborates with Jamaican icon Vybz Kartel, which was produced by Dunw3ll. In a similar vein to past releases, Vybz’s newest release brings a new level of sexual energy to your dance floor:
The rapper has continued to manufacture new music and collaborate with artists since he was imprisoned in 2011. Aside from releasing more than an album worth of music this year, the self-proclaimed Worl’ Boss has released “Politics,” “Girl Next Door” along Roxxie, “Stimulus,” “All Heaven” featuring Shawn Storm, “Too Young” by Lenae, “White House,” “Likkle Bit So,” and “It Hard.”
Kartel spoke to FOX 5 New York in 2021 to describe how he copes with his imprisonment and why he is fighting for his freedom:
“Despite being sick for a few years, I have always been mentally sound. This is why I am certain that I am innocent and that I am telling the truth completely. It was the system that wanted me to be thrown away. It was never about me being charged for a murder. The purpose was to get rid of Vybz Kartel, not Adidja Palmer.
‘Girls Night Out,’ Babyface’s highly anticipated album, will be released on Oct. 21. There will be vocal contributions from some of today’s most prominent women in R&B, such as Queen Naija, Ella Mai, Doechii, Ari Lennox, Kehlani, and many others. There will be a co-producer of the show, Babyface and Rika Tischendorf, as well as many strong previews including “Seamless” performed by Kehlani and “Keeps On Fallin” with Ella Mai.
With a brand new single today (Sept. 16), Babyface continues to roll out new music from the project, this time with the song “Game Over” in collaboration with Queen Naija. A man is trying to deceive the songstress according to her lyrics on the track:
In addition to revealing the official cover art for Girl’s Night Out, Babyface has also been releasing sneak peeks at the album’s content. In order to come up with the vibrant design, he recruited Ricky (Rico) Heeraman, a highly regarded, self-taught modern artist. Born in the Bronx, Heeraman uses geometry to separate his pieces of art and find inspiration in urban graffiti art.
It was last week that NAV released his fourth studio LP Demons Protected by Angels. This album features performances from Lil Uzi Vert, Babyface Ray, Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Lil Durk, Bryson Tiller, and more. Soon thereafter (Sept. 10), the Canadian artist dropped a new visual for “Lost Me,” in which he collaborated with RealestK on a song about a love interest that proved disloyal:
A black-and-white clip accompanying the music video for the NAV, 254Bodi, Money Musik, and HONEYWOODSIX-produced track portrays a single room in an artsy manner. NAV sits on a throne with an amount of money, and RealestK makes his appearance flanked by mannequins wearing sunglasses.
In the first week of the album’s release, Hits Daily Double estimates that Demons Protected by Angels will sell 50,000 to 55,000 equivalent album units. The number of units sold for Emergency Tsunami, released in 2020, would be higher if the figures are accurate. Emergency Tsunami debuted on the Billboard 200 at number six thanks to the sale of 42,000 units. As with Demons Protected by Angels, Emergency Tsunami showcased a variety of star power, featuring Young Thug, Gunna, Lil Baby, SahBabii, Future, and the late Lil Keed.
Earlier this year, Kem released a five-track EP entitled Full Circle, which featured additional collaborations from Brian Culbertson, Ty Dolla $ign, and Rick Ross, who all appeared on the track “Right On Time.” The track was produced by Derek and Kem “DOA” Allen, “Right On Time” portrays the artists expressing their love for their respective love interests:
It was announced last week (Sept. 9) that Kem would be releasing a new video for “Right On Time,” which is directed by Gerald “Plaid” Isaac. A black-and-white clip shows Ross in some fly suits, with color pops appearing on jewelry, a high-end car, and some of his clothing. Among the collaborators can be found a room decorated with white walls and Kem’s debut album’s title above.
The album comes on the heels of Kem’s 2020 LP Love Always Wins, which featured features from Culbertson, Toni Braxton, and Erica Campbell. Additionally, a deluxe edition of the album was released with several remixes and an appearance by Wiz Khalifa. During the same time period, Rozay released Richer Than I Ever Been, a star-studded effort featuring contributions from Blxst, The-Dream, Benny the Butcher, 21 Savage, Jazmine Sullivan, and more.
