Putting her spin on Dean Martin’s classic is Bebe Rexha. The Pop singer delivered her sophomore studio album Better Mistakes on Friday (May 7), and the album is stacked with hitmakers including Ty Dolla $ign, Doja Cat, Lil Uzi Vert, and Rick Ross. The singer shared that she’s been sitting on Better Mistakes for some time and told Billboard that because the pandemic delayed the project further, she had time to mix things up and play with different genres.

“It’s funny, because I had this super-focused album that was all in the ‘Empty,’ ‘Death Row,’ ‘Break My Heart Myself’ world, and ‘My Dear Love’ was still in there to go a little more Hip Hop,” said the singer. “But then sitting on the album was driving me crazy, listening to all these sad songs. When you sit on an album for two years, two-and-a-half years, you’re gonna want to change it. So I had to fight myself not to change a lot — but I threw ‘Sacrifice’ in there, and ‘Amore.’ I threw in different genres, and that’s what I wanted.”

Check out Rick Ross assisting Bebe Rexha on her slow-burning single and share your thoughts.

Quotable Lyrics

Diamonds on my middle finger (Yeah)
F*ck you to the simple n*ggas (Han)
Versace sweaters and the linen
Smokin’ Cali out in Venice (Boss)
Mansion bought in Vienna, bought a Benz and I’m livin’ like a Menace
I remember time when I’m never finished, like a set of rims, Rozay always spend it

Fans knew that something was brewing between Kodak Black and Pooh Shiesty when the two rappers popped up on Instagram Live together. The pair had previously engaged in a short-lived beef after Kodak argued that he launched the money-spreading trend taking over social media, but in the end, the Florida star decided it wasn’t a big enough deal to make an enemy over.

In fact, during our Rise & Grind interview with Pooh Shiesty at the top of March, the Memphis native listed Kodak as one of his Top 5 artists, dead or alive. “I’m gon’ put me on there, BIG30, Gucci Mane, Kodak Black, and Chief Keef,” said Shiesty. “I don’t even care about nobody else. Them five right there.” 

Kodak recently shared his single “Rip Stick,” a track that hosts features from Pooh Shiesty and Syko Bob, but its unclear if this is a one-off or apart of a greater project. We’re sure Kodak will let us know more in the future, but for now, stream “Rip Stick” and let us know what you think.

Quotable Lyrics

I’m on the seat, two-thirty, been swervin’ and floatin’
I’m lurkin’ in motion like, “Where my pump?”
Soon as they play I be gettin’ the drop
You ain’t p*ssy boy, rob, I been mackin’ on the block
Put a knife on the chopper, I call it a chop
The crack rectangle, I call it a rock

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood fans watched years ago as R&B singer La’Britney continued her music career pursuits on the hit series. She’s collaborated on a track with Kash Doll back in 208 and on the VH1 show, she was seen working with A1 before having a bit of drama with his wife, Lyrica. La’Britney has moved on to Notorious Queens, an ALLBLK series featuring women buzzing in the business who are demanding their time in the spotlight.

On the season finale of Notorious Queens, La’Britney debuted her latest single, “Ducked Off.” On the track, she sings about getting mixed signals as she debates whether or not it’s time to leave her significant other in the dust. “I had to ‘Duck Off’ and put myself at the top of my to-do list, so that the rest could fall into place,” the singer told Bossip.

The Detroit native is reportedly working on much more, but for now, stream “Ducked Off” and let us know what you think.

Quotable Lyrics

You don’t hear what I mean
Until I get up and leave
The message you sending me
That I should part ways and just back off
