The album will follow the 30-song offering that took place last year, Vinyl Days, and will feature additional contributions from Wiz Khalifa, Curren$y, Royce da 5’9″, AZ, DJ Premier, The Game, Action Bronson, and more.

Tink discusses “Toxic” love in her new single

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. In addition to her own releases, Tink has also worked with Vedo and Babyface in collaborations such as “Whatever” with Babyface and “Somebody” featuring Vedo.

U.S. rapper Meek Mill returned to the scene over the weekend to share a brand-new set of bars with his fans. The Carters Vision-shot clip, which accompanies the single “Don’t Follow The Heathens (Freestyle),” gives fans a glimpse into Meek’s studio experience as he creates a fresh sound during an intimate studio session.

BlocBoy JB drops off new visual for “MURSIC”

BlocBoy JB drops off new visual for “MURSIC”

It’s been a couple of days since BlocBoy JB tipped off his new song titled “MURSIC,” which is obviously a nod to the rapper’s deep Memphis accent, which frequently appears on his tracks. The Karey Muney-produced record is full of hard-hitting rhymes that take aim at BlocBoy JB’s high-end lifestyle and his street connections:

“The video for “MURSIC” comes in the form of a matching visual produced by Spizzberg and Faceoff Visuals as part of a matching project. There is a scene in the clip where he appears with his crew at a desert location, where they have a brightly colored Corvette and a couple of four-wheelers with them. This video features clips from old western movies woven throughout, echoing Muney’s nostalgic production in which old Western films are interspersed with footage from modern films.

He now appears to be aligned with Yo Gotti’s Collective Music Group. BlocBoy JB first made his mark in the music industry with Drake’s collaboration “Look Alive” in 2018. As he previously mentioned in a past interview, he has high expectations for how the song will be perceived post-release:

“After it was released for the first time, they asked me, ‘How many views do you think it’s going to get in a day?’ I answered, ‘Uh, 100,000.’ That thing blew up like crazy. While I know it’s a banger, it’s not always the case that you get the most out of things the first time around. Whenever it happens, you think to yourself, “Damn, this really happened.” The problem with my mind is that it always takes me to places I have no expectations.”

Also talking about his experience in collaborating with 21 Savage for a hit record called “Rover 2.0,” he shared some of his thoughts about the experience:

As I wrote Rover, I was sitting in the back of a truck when I first started writing it. It is not a Rover, but an Explorer… I am confident that this is an extremely difficult song. In other words, if I am unable to stop listening to a song, then I have discovered something, since I am quick to move on to the next song.”
