On Tuesday (Sept. 26), the Florida native released a new video from his critically acclaimed compilation, Clutch George, “X-Wing,” a Darko, and DRTWRK-produced offering which shows Curry using Star Wars as a means of explaining his fame and success:
Adrian Villagomez’s accompanying video introduces viewers to what appears to be a futuristic city in Japan where Denzel Curry roams around. While flying through the sky in the actual X-Wing, Curry displays his sword skills, fights crime, and shows off his sword skills during the course of the film.
Aside from “X-Wing,” Denzel Curry is also planning to release a deluxe edition of Melt My Eyez See Your Future, the album’s tracks having been re-recorded with the Cold Blooded Soul Band. In 2007, fans were introduced to the 10-piece collective as part of Curry’s “Tiny Desk” performance on NPR Music. As well as the new songs, the update will feature “Larger Than Life” and “Chrome Hearts.”
Ahead of the summer holidays, Idris Elba released a new single called “Biggest,” an energetic club song co-produced by Dave Hammer and Manon Dave. In addition to his rapping over the infectious production, Elba expresses his desire to keep the party going in the following manner:
“Biggest” is a self-directed video Idris released yesterday (Sept. 22), which begins with him returning to the warehouse venue where he partied the night before. In his mind, he imagines a wild function, including an encounter with a love interest that was played by his wife, Sabrina Dhowre Elba. Toward the end of the clip, Sabrina snaps back to reality when a woman also Sabrina appears to be given a tour by the owner.
A series of impressive musical releases by Elba have taken place this year, starting with January’s Cordi Elba, a collaborative EP with Lime Cordiale. Aside from these, he released electronic-inspired tracks such as “Body Shots” and “Walk Of Shame” the following May and July, respectively. His collaborations with other artists include Drizilik “Ashobi,” Zedon “Monsters,”and “Aces” with Akintoye, Connor Price, and 4Korners. In addition to his continued work on the big screen, moviegoers may wish to see Beast and Three Thousand Years of Longing, two of the most recent films he appears in.
The rapper has been releasing albums every week without missing a beat. As of today (Sept. 23), he has released his new track, “Last Night,” following other recent releases like “That Was Me,” “Are You Entertained,” “Paddington Freestyle” with Ed Sheeran, and “Yes Sir.” The track features Russ reminiscing about a few of his last moments with a lover:
As you may recall, Russ unveiled his latest EP in April, If Not Now, When? The EP contains four new tracks for his fans to enjoy. The December release of Chomp 2, following the well-received 2020 EP of the same name, introduced a new sound to the artist’s sound. A total of 14 songs and collaborations were featured on the first Chomp, including Ransom, Papoose, Jadakiss,The Game, Hit-Boy, Styles P, Snoop Dogg, Westside Gunn, Wale, Jay Electronica, and more.
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.”

His new love interest keeps running into him throughout the video before the two finally spend some time together. In the song, June talks about his love for his lady:
In the year leading up to Spaceships on the Blade, June published her last solo project, Orange Print. A number of visuals have been released to support the album, including “6am In Sausalito,” “Intercepted,” and “Still Cookin” featuring Money Man.
