Flint’s own BFB Da Packman has proven himself to be among hip-hop’s more unconventional rising artists, having earned acclaim through his sharp comedic timing, bluntly amusing self-deprecation, and quotable punchlines. Determined to establish himself as one of the game’s most noteworthy bar-spitters, Da Packman has set the stage for his upcoming debut album Fat N***as Need Love Too, unveiling the tracklist and guest appearances to come.
Clocking in at eighteen tracks — skits included — BFB’s big release is set to feature appearances from Sada Baby, Noodah, Wiz Khalifa, Coi Leray, Benny The Butcher, Payroll Giovanni, Zack Fox, Lil Yachty, and DDG.
Of course, many are already familiar with the project’s fourth track, the viral “Free Joe Exotic” with fellow Detroit rapper Sada Baby. Released in the summer of 2020, the Tiger King-inspired banger became an instant sensation, to the point where its inclusion on Fat N***as Need Love Too was a no-brainer. It should also be interesting to hear how BFB fares trading bars with Benny The Butcher, a man widely regarded among the game’s elite lyricists.
Luckily, we won’t have to wait much longer for the album to arrive, as it’s currently set to drop this coming Friday, June 25th. Should you be interested in a little bit of a sneak preview, be sure to check out the tracklist embedded below, courtesy of BFB’s IG.

Fans of the DC Extended Universe have been waiting patiently for the standalone sequel of the 2016 film Suicide Squad. The forthcoming film, which features an ensemble cast of Hollywood’s most elite actors, has received a new trailer, although it seems it was leaked online earlier than expected.
The fresh trailer, which is available on YouTube through an unlisted video dubbed “The Suicide Squad – Early Access Trailer Do Not Share,” highlights Suicide Squad member Bloodsport, who will be played by Idris Elba. James Gunn took to Twitter to joke about the circulating trailer, placing blame on some of the cast members for debuting the trailer online early. A first look trailer was already dropped back in March.
“It seems like Margot…John Cena, Idris Elba…have already done that earlier than expected. How dare they,” tweeted Gunn in response to a fan asking for a trailer. As for the contents of the new trailer, Idris Elba’s Bloodsport is spotlighted in the action-packed clip. Bloodsport is the tech-enhanced mercenary who went to prison for shooting Superman with a kryptonite bullet, which earned the applaud and attention of squad boss Amanda Walker (Viola Davis).
Elsewhere in the trailer, you also see more of Sylvester Stallone’s King Shark character, the fan-favorite Margot Robbie rendition of Harley Quinn, and the rest of the team continuing their tirade already witnessed in the previous trailer. In addition, Pete Davidson stars as Blackguard, David Dastmalchian as Polka-Dot Man, Alice Braga as Sul Soria, Daniela Melchior as Ratcatcher 2, Nathan Fillion as T.D.K., Mayling Ng as Mongal, Michael Rooker as Savant, Peter Capaldi as Thinker, Sean Gunn as Weasel and Flula Borg as Javelin.
The Suicide Squad is scheduled to hit theaters and HBO Max on August 6th. Although briefly being fired as director, his next superhero project will still be MCU’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which is set to arrive in May of 2023. Check out the new trailer above.

Rowdy Rebel has shared a few tracks since his release from prison including collaborations with Young Thug, Nav, and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie. On Friday, he blessed fans with a rack, he shared a brand new freestyle over Meek Mill’s “Flamerz Flow.” Closing out the track is a special message from Rowdy who announced the title of his forthcoming project.

“iSpy” artist KYLE has announced that he’s officially an independent artist, effectively ending his working relationship with Atlantic Recording Corporation. The Ventura-based artist will be releasing new music this week, sharing a message with his day-one fans that he’s finally happy to be working on his art again.
“I have not felt like myself now for some time.. I felt like I was getting pulled in every direction and I had zero control of what means the most to me, my art. It is important to me that I give you all the best of me, and I couldn’t do that without being free, so I’m happy to announce that as of today I am an INDEPENDENT ARTIST and a self-owned business,” wrote KYLE on Instagram.
“In the short term I’m turning down millions of dollars but I’m taking a risk and betting on what got me to where I am today.. myself and my fans,” he added. “I’m starting to feel myself align.. It’s been an amazing feeling recording these new records free from all restraints. My fans are about to get the artist they deserve from me.. I’m being unapologetically myself. Thank you to everyone who’s stuck along for the journey and helped me get to this point.”
Kicking off this new chapter, KYLE will be releasing his new single “Love Me Like You Say You Love Me” on Friday. Will you be tuning in to hear the artist’s new music?
Read through his full post below.
It started with a billboard.
Now, fans are expecting a new record titled Call Me If You Get Lost to arrive from Tyler, The Creator by the end of the week. Longtime fans know Tyler as an endlessly creative visionary that puts a concerted effort beyond just the music to create entire eras and aesthetics to go along with each album release, evidenced by his ever-evolving GOLF WANG clothing brand, his countless self-directed music videos and the impressive Camp Flog Gnaw Festival held in Los Angeles every year.
More importantly, fans of Tyler have seen him grow exponentially as both an artist and an individual since Odd Future’s early-2010s inception. Many point to his 2017 record Flower Boy as both a creative and personal turning point that highlighted Tyler’s heightened sense of growth and maturity, across lyrics that revealed the rapper’s homosexuality, sharply contrasting the homophobic slurs and derogatory bars present in his earlier works.
A two-years-later follow-up to 2019’s IGOR – which was anointed Best Rap Album at the 2020 Grammys – the announcement of the LA-based artist’s forthcoming album came quick and as somewhat of a surprise after a Columbia Records billboard popped up in Los Angeles in early June, signifying the beginning of its rollout.
So, let’s start from the top and run through everything we know so far, about Call Me If You Get Lost.
On June 9th, fans first spotted a billboard in Los Angeles with the words “CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST” in bold, along with a phone number on the bottom. Marked on the side was the Columbia Records logo – Tyler’s record label. Now, a call to the phone number will play a snippet of a song on the album in which Tyler raps aggressively over some rumbling drums, but the initial call played a recorded conversation between the artist and his mother in which his mother passionately outlines her love for her son over a signature Tyler instrumental.
On June 14th, the ominous album rollout continued with a video teaser posted to Tyler’s YouTube channel and Instagram page. In it, Tyler’s character is seen making out with a woman on the hood of a vintage, faded pink Fiat sports car before speeding off. Taco, Odd Future member and longtime friend of Tyler’s, then appears, seemingly in a relationship with the girl and asks her who Tyler’s character was, only for her to brush the ordeal off like nothing happened. The teaser ends with the album tagline as the soft background instrumental hits piano notes that sound similar to a generic commercial jingle.
Tyler’s Instagram caption for the teaser reads “10. SWEET,” which might indicate that the instrumental is for the tenth track on the record and/or song title– similar to his caption for the “LUMBERJACK” record as well.
On June 16th, Tyler put the mysterious teasing to a halt by officially releasing the first single called “LUMBERJACK” for the project, which was accompanied by a music video teaser. The teaser begins with narration from Tyler, which sets the scene for the visuals before it breaks out into full song. Tyler was last heard singing with primarily pitched vocals on IGOR, however here, he is heard rapping aggressively over a beat that heavily samples Gravediggaz’ “2 Cups of Blood.”The song is also propped up and accompanied by DJ Drama’s iconic ad-libs. This grimy, barebones style of rapping is quite new for Tyler– or else, it may recall Tyler’s early raps– so this single could be indicative of the different direction he’ll be taking the new album.
On June 17th, Tyler put it out into the world that his album is coming, sharing the title, cover art and release date for the project. The cover art appears to be an homage to Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s 1995 album Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version, which is a photo of a food stamps card with ODB’s face, name, date of birth and album title on it. On Tyler’s cover, the ID card is a license to travel with all the similar features to ODB’s cover, but it instead includes a pseudonym name “Tyler Baudelaire,” which might be an alter ego or an important component to the album’s narrative. A tracklist was not shared in this announcement, leaving fans to speculate about the album’s content beyond its first single.
Today, Tyler shared another video teaser for the upcoming record on YouTube and Instagram called “WUSYANAME.” The teaser again starts with narration from Tyler that underscores the album’s apparent theme of traveling, as the shot follows Tyler driving across different terrains. The teaser song then begins playing, which is very much inspired by a nostalgic, late-90s R&B sound as Tyler raps to the girl he was seen making out with in the “SIDE STREET” teaser. Also, backing vocals from singer Ty Dolla $ign can be heard toward the end. Tyler’s Instagram caption indicates that the song will be the fourth track on the album, titled “WusYaName.”
Because Tyler has been quite secretive and ominous about Call Me If You’re Lost, while his curated teasers have been drumming up hype for the record, fans are actively speculating about what the record will sound like or which possible features might appear when the album drops on Friday. Check out some of the discussion below.

Dave Chappelle is fresh off of the debut of his new documentary This Time This Place at Radio City Music Hall in New York City which was then followed up by a surprise show including the likes of Fat Joe, A$AP Ferg, and many other East Coast favorites. The documentary premiere arrives just after the comedian launched his new podcast The Midnight Miracle on Luminary alongside Talib Kweli and Yasiin Bey.
The latest episode of the podcast debuted this week and began with Chappelle and his co-hosts discussing whether he should apologize to Candace Owens for comments he made last year. Chappelle’s 8:48 comedy special, he went in on Candace Owens over her comments relating to George Floyd. “She’s the most articulate idiot I’ve ever seen in my life,” he said before pondering whether the ring-wing talking head had a “stinky p*ssy.”
“There’s no way I owe Candace Owens an apology, is there?” He said, sparking a conversation amongst his co-hosts on the podcast. Yasiin Bey called Owens “a mascot of colonial interest in America today.”
“I did say that but I also conceded that I don’t know if her pussy stinks or not, but that I was guessing that it probably does stink,” Chappelle responded, claiming that Owens is “cruel and dangerous and completely the opposite of any Black woman I’ve ever met in my life.”
An apology did come by the end of the episode but not like how you’d imagine. “By the way, Candace Owens, I’m sorry I called you ‘articulate,’” Chappelle said.
