It is with great pleasure to announce that the Grammy-nominated songstress shares her first solo release, “calm & patient,” since having her son Noah, on March 31st.

The manager of Jhené Aiko, Taz, took to his Instagram Story to describe the significance of the release and shared with the world that it marks the beginning of a new chapter. “The era of Jhené Aiko has begun, bringing us back to simpler times of releasing music for the love of it, when we simply did it for the love of it. My apologies to Def Jam and Tea, but this one is meant for the two soulmates who have been through so much together.
The last full-length solo album that the “Stay Ready” singer Jhené Aiko released was Chilombo, which released in 2020. On the 20 track project, you’ll find guest appearances from Ab-Soul, Miguel, Future, John Legend, Nas, H.E.R., Big Sean, Ty Dolla $ign, in addition to averaging 152,000 album-equivalent units sold in its first week of release. On the Billboard 200, it debuted at the No. 2 spot with 160 thousand album equivalent units. It was not long after the release of the album that she launched the deluxe version of it, which included nine new tracks.

In addition to enjoying fine dining together, the duo can be seen taking a stroll over the water, chatting, and enjoying some time together.

A new single from GloRilla was released on Tuesday (May 23), entitled “Lick Or Sum,” a remix of Juicy J’s “Slob on My Knob” that is just as tough and hard-hitting as the original.
“Lick Or Sum” also features a visual provided by Chris Villa. With a twerking routine that matches the song’s energy, GloRilla and her crew are seen in various locations demonstrating their best twerking skills.
GloRilla debuted her debut EP back in November of 2022, titled Anyways, Life’s Great, and it was also the first official release GloRilla released because she was now part of Yo Gotti Collective Creative Agency. In addition to the nine songs that were part of that project, additional features such as those from Niki Pooh, Cardi B, and Hitkidd, made the album become the fifth most-streamed R&B/Hip-Hop album on Billboard’s chart. As a follow-up to the release of Anyways, Life’s Great…Bonus Edition in January, the “Tomorrow” artist has released a follow-up album. He added viral cuts like “PHATNALL” and “Nut Quick.”
A few weeks ago, GloRilla was interviewed for the show “Big Facts” and she spoke about the love and support she has received from her fans so far. “People seem to be able to relate to me because I am not changing at all,” she stated. “ Since I am from the neighborhood, I am able to relate to a lot of people, including those who are not from the neighborhood. While I have received a greater amount of love, I have also experienced a substantial amount of hate. My intention is to love people… I have never harbored a hating spirit because I know it is always a matter of timing.”

A new collection of visuals by Juicy J is available, which are taken from his latest project, Mental Trillness. This past Friday (May 19), he released a clip for his song “Gettin‘.” The song was produced by Hitkidd and lets the hearer know what the Memphis musician has been up to.
This video was produced by Dang Films and Juicy J can be seen in a creepy looking mansion in the video. Throughout, he wears a mask, receives a drink from an attractive woman, and performs outside next to an old-fashioned convertible.
An 18-track album entitled Mental Trillness was released last March and features notable contributions from Aleza, K Carbon, La Chat, the late Gangsta Boo, Finesse2Tymes, and more. According to previous reports, Juicy J focused most of the album’s content on mental health, a cause he has acknowledged dealing with throughout his long and distinguished career.
This latest track from the Three 6 Mafia talent follows up a string of well-received 2022 projects, including Space Age Pimpin with Pi’erre Bourne, Crypto Business with Lex Luger & Trap-A-Holics, and Stoner Night with Wiz Khalifa. Among other things, he has also contributed to music such as Sauce Walka and Conway the Machine “Super Bowl,” Snoop Dogg and DJ Drama “Been Smokin,” and Megan Thee Stallion “Southside Royalty Freestyle.”
