Rappers have been hitting the scene in recent times and Fivio Foreign is one of those. A rapper who consistently creates bangers from singles and features without any full-length albums must be a different breed of artist. The popularity of social media and streaming is reaching new heights every day, which makes it possible that music will be here tomorrow and gone the next. Even though he has yet to prove to the world that he can overcome the odds set against him in this industry, New York rapper Eminem has proven beyond doubt that he can succeed. The highly anticipated debut album of Fivio Foreign, titled B.I.B.L.E., is now available.
In conjunction with the release of his second album, B.I.B.L.E., Brooklyn rapper Big Drip has released a documentary. Directed by Sam Balaban, the film takes an in-depth look at the life of “Big Drip” rapper, unveiling his family, the creative process of how he created music, and his experiences with losing those he loved, including his mother. One somber scene shows him saying, “I have lost family members and people close to me all my life.” “Death has always been a part of my life. When my mother died, I couldn’t forget her. When you experience these moments, you kinda wonder if God is real. But it’s important to remember that God is the reason we experience these moments. It’s natural to be sad sometimes, but we have to understand that it’s just part of life.”
Ye served as the executive producer for the album in an effort to add some sauce. Featuring 17 songs and 17 features, B.I.B.L.E. includes Ye, A$AP Rocky, Quavo, DJ Khaled, Alicia Keys, Lil Yachty, Vory, Polo G and more!
It will come as no surprise that Knucks will unveil his new record Alpha Place this May, which will include 13 tracks and (as of this article) some contributions from Venna and SL, both of whom appear on Knucks’ latest offering, “Nice & Good.” The self-produced offering finds the two emcees reflecting on things they remember from their hometowns:
Despite the black-and-white style of the accompanying clip for “Nice & Good,” much of the clip is shot in black and white, including scenes showing Knucks and his masked counterpart interacting with heavy on the street, interspersed with scenes of a police officer that may or may not be doing anything wrong. A courtyard party breaks out toward the end, and everything gets colorful.
It will be followed by Knucks’ 2019 project, London Class, which features 12 songs contributed by kadiata, Loyle Carner, Venna, KXYZ, and Sam Wise. From that time forward, Kilburn talent has increasingly gained popularity as a featured artist, appearing on top tier songs such as Skiifall “Ting Tun Up Part II,” DC “Bobby & Rowdy,” Kojey Radical “Payback,” and Swindle “BLOW YA TRUMPET.”
In his newest single, Kalan.FrFr delivers the catchy tune “Popstar.” This delightful song is the first taste of his upcoming EP, and it demonstrates the slick flow of the Chicago rapper, combined with the lush production from Bankroll Got It and Diego Ave. On “Popstar,” Kalan.FrFr explains the power of stardom:
The Compton native expressed his feelings about the new song during an interview: ‘It’s a concept based song about how anyone can be a pop star, it is just a matter of believing it. It’s the belief in yourself, the feeling that you are functioning regardless of what space you’re in. It doesn’t mean you have to be a rapper to be a popstar, I’m just one!
There was also TwoFr 2 Extended prior to this release, which is the deluxe edition of TwoFr 2. On the original, Stunna 4 Vegas and Mozzy appeared, while BluebucksClan, Lil Durk, Maeta, 1TakeJay and Maeta provided brand new guest assists. On his “Never Lose You” Tour, Kalan will tour seven cities in celebration of the release of his new album, which launches in Orlando on April 28 and travels to New York, Houston and Atlanta.
A week ago, Buddy dropped his second studio album, Superghetto, which featured 10-tracks and guest appearances by Blxst, T-Pain, Tinashe, and Ari Lennox. A visual for “Hoochie Mama” was released along with the album, a Roofeeo-produced track in which Buddy balances his quest for some female accompaniment with his vivid account of life in Compton:
This video for “Hoochie Mama” is presented by madebyJAMES, and begins with a shot of Buddy playing outside. Additionally, he participates in some boxing at the gym full of attractive ladies, gets into some flirting with an attractive woman in his neighborhood, and much more.
In its official debut, Superghetto is Buddy’s first album after Harlan & Alondra, which appeared in 2018 and incorporated collaborations with Ty Dolla $ign, Guapdad 4000, Snoop Dogg, A$AP Ferg, and Khalid. Harlan & Alondra then received a deluxe upgrade in the form of four additional cuts and assists from artists such as BJ The Chicago Kid, 03 Greedo, Ari Lennox, JID, and more. Keeping that momentum going, he teamed up with OverDoz in 2020. Kent Jamz produced Janktape Vol. 1. together with the two. Furthermore, he has contributed vocals for artists such as Smino, Robert Glasper, Smoke DZA, and Zacari.
A new body of work by Unknown T titled Adolescence was released last summer. The project was composed of fifteen tracks featuring collaborations with M1llionz, Potter Payper, M Huncho, Nafe Smallz, and Digga D. Following its initial release, the album received positive reviews from the general public, landing the London rapper his first place on the UK Albums chart in the very first week.
Throughout the years, Unknown T has developed his unique brand for artists such as Abra Cadabra, V9, Lancey Foux, Steel Banglez, Young T & Bugsey, KO, and FKA Twigs in September, as well as collaborating with Skillibeng on “Wollan”, raising the question of whether or not a follow-up was forthcoming. The drill artist stoked the flames yesterday (Mar. 24), releasing “Often,” which features some of his toughest, most inventive bars to date. As an example, let’s take his use of DC Comics characters to illustrate how he would like to get his point across:
As part of Unknown T’s first campaign launch, he provided fans with snippets of three songs to choose from, which included the track “Often.” Considering how much fans liked it, it’s understandable why Chris Rich decided to kickstart the new campaign with a Chris Rich-produced track.
Additionally, the song is accompanied by a dope video by Teeeezy C, which shows Unknown T performing before busy crowds and mobbing with his crew at his Homerton digs if you’re not in the United States, check it out here.
