His career has been one to remember, and he is nowhere close to calling it a day. His legacy extends far beyond Atlanta, and he is without a doubt one of the most celebrated artists of the city. Fans have been waiting two years for a follow-up to his High Off Life album and the Freeband Gang leader has been waiting patiently for some new music since then. Though the time seemed to pass fairly quickly, As little as possible is what Future is known for doing to keep his fans waiting. The toxic king has released his ninth studio album I Never Liked You today (April 29) just in time for the end of the month!
Future’s ninth studio album will be released in January. In an interview with GQ earlier this month, the rapper revealed, “I’m putting myself out there.” “I am revealing my lifestyle,” he said. He said that he would share his pain with the world. “I’m willing to share all of me with the universe, so I can learn how to build on me, and become a better version of me.”
Throughout the artwork, a sleeping rapper lies in the backseat of an apparent luxury vehicle, lying comfortably. An eye mask obscures his vision while he sleeps. Wearing an eggplant-purple silk suit and a bracelet and ring around his wrist and fingers, he is shown here in a photograph. The title of Future’s album has also been a big hit among fans, who have made comments in Future’s comment section praising what they see.
A rapper equipped with 16 records, Future featured seven artists: Gunna, Young Thug, Drake (featured twice), Kanye West, EST Gee, Tems, Kodak Black. I Never Liked You is expected to dominate the summer, considering that summer is just around the corner.
It’s evident that Justin Bieber is working on his new album. It appears that he surprised everyone recently with the release of a new single titled “I Feel Funny,” which was intended as a humorous rap song. As well as the song, it was accompanied by a simple phone shot video from Lyrical Lemonade’s Cole Bennett, which showed Bieber and Don Toliver enjoying themselves on the set of a forthcoming video for an upcoming song. On Wednesday, April 29, the Canadian singer and his Houston counterpart will release Bieber’s first official release in 2022, “Honest.”. Naturally, the accompanying video was also created, along with Bennett, in keeping with the collaboration’s glorious vibes that are sure to remain well into the summer months.
Bieber has only been recording music since his sixth studio album Justice dropped a year ago. With subsequent upgrades, that project featured 25 songs and a host of artists, such as Khalid, Daniel Caesar, The Kid LAROI, Lil Uzi Vert, Burna Boy, Jaden, Chance the Rapper, DaBaby, Quavo, and more. The album’s first week of release saw 154,000 album equivalent units sold, earning Justin Bieber his eighth number one ranking on Billboard 200. Additionally, Justice has been awarded Gold and Platinum awards around the world, including one Platinum award in the United States. After releasing 2021, Justin Bieber released a gospel EP titled Freedom weeks after Justice.
Throughout his career, Bieber has contributed his unique vocal style to songs such as Omah Lay “Attention,” DJ Khaled “LET IT GO,” Wizkid “Essence (Remix),” Migos “What You See,” Bryson Tiller “lonely Christmas,” BEAM “SUNDOWN,” Juice WRLD “Wandered To LA,” and Kehlani “up at night.” Together with Toliver, they collaborated on Skrillex’s genre-bending “Don’t Go.”
Blxst is without a doubt among the most exciting new music artists to emerge in recent memory. We like to refer to the sophomore slump as “sophomore slump”; however, this does not describe the Los Angeles phenomenon. His actions indicate that he took that idea and put the extra effort into making sure that wouldn’t be his call this time. He seems to have done so. The spring and summer seasons will be infused with endless bops. The fact that Blxst decided to share some new tunes with us is very convenient in light of this situation. The sophomore album from Blxst, Before You Go, arrives today (Apr 22).
Honestly, Blxst is at an extremely exciting part of his career, and he is just getting started. No Love Lost (released in 2020), his debut album, reached No. 3 on Billboard’s Heatseekers chart in 2020, elevating him from a promising local performer to a credible R&B voice with heat to spare. Fans were not disappointed when he released the platinum-certified single “Chosen” featuring Ty Dolla $ign and Tyga months after the initial release. Due to the success of his debut single, the South Central native began receiving high expectations for his sophomore efforts, a stage at which some artists find it difficult to recapture the magic of their debut project.
The rising star has never slowed down since his arrival and it seems abundantly clear that he has no plans of doing so any time soon. A total of 13 tracks are featured on the LP, including tracks from Rick Ross, Arin Ray, GrandmasterVic, and Zacari.
FKA Twigs unveiled her debut mix tape CAPRISONGS in January, which included 17 genre-bending songs alongside help from artists including Pa Salieu, The Weeknd, Shygirl, Rema, Daniel Caesar, Jorja Smith, Unknown T, and more. Until now, the project has produced visually stimulating visuals for tracks such as “ride the dragon,” “tears in the club,” “meta angel,” “darjeeling,” “jealousy,” and “papi bones.”
Besides that, FKA twigs released a video yesterday (April 19) for “oh my love,” a Jason Scheff and El Guincho -produced track, which is accompanied by messages from Abigail Sakari and Suzannah Pettigrew detailing their experience of being on the wrong side of an inconsistent and lopsided relationship:
Featuring lo-fi footage of FKA Twigs having her nails done at a salon, Aidan Zamiri’s accompanying clip offers a lesson in self-care.
Relatedly, twigs recently released a short film called PLAYSCAPE, which has coincided with this year’s International Woolmark Prize, a prize that honors designers around the world (previous winners includeKarl Lagerfeld and Yves Saint Laurent). Below explains said film:
“Directed by FKA Twigs and creatively directed by Zak Group with choreography by Juliano Nunes, here is the final Lookbook for the IWP2022 collection including Ahluwalia, Jordan Dalah, EGONLAB, Peter Do, MMUSOMAXWELL, RUI and Saul Nash. Isamu Noguchi’s concept of play as a catalyst for creativity inspired Playscape, which merged elements of fashion, dance, and music.”
In honor of his late mother, Suzanne Olmsted, G-Eazy released a new song titled “Angel” over the weekend. A heartfelt gift arrived on her first birthday after she passed away last autumn. G created the song with his close friends. He used background vocalists Vida Simon, and Devon Baldwin along with the choir conducted by Tim Davis, which was also used for “Faithful.”
With his new music, G-Eazy announced an annual scholarship fund in honor of his mother, “The Dandelion Scholarship.” The scholarship will be awarded annually by The Endless Summer Fund to a college-bound high school senior pursuing a degree in the arts, with the recipient announced on April 15 (his mother’s birthday). Information about this year’s recipient and how to apply will be provided in the coming days.
The rapper posted a message on Instagram to announce her death last year. Eazy discusses his relationship with his mother in the article, which includes a variety of pictures of his mother throughout the years.
“I can’t comprehend the feeling that you won’t be able to hug me again,” wrote the artist of “These Things Happen Too”. My mother is my queen, my hero, my everything. There is no stopping the tears. Everything hurts, from my eyes to my face to my body. It is impossible to find a safe place to hide and there is no way to lay, sit, or stand without being hurt. It is unbearable. However, knowing you’re out of yours gives me peace of mind. I love you dearly.
According to Eazy’s caption, his mother also played a crucial role in his decision to seek substance abuse treatment.
“Although I was deeply concerned for you and your physical well-being, I did not realize how deeply concerned you were until you sent me the most hard letter I have ever read,” he wrote in another part of the caption. The decision to go to alcohol and drug treatment was mine, but your letter ultimately convinced me.
