Kevin Gates Reunites With Dreka On “Breakfast”

by

2022 felt like a strong return for Kevin Gates. The Louisiana-bred rapper emerged with the release of his latest body of work, Khaza, a spiritual successor to his debut album, Islah. In the years since his release from prison, Gates has undoubtedly showcased his growth and maturity. Not only within his art but through his health regiment as well. Overall, Gates returned with a strong body of work that reminded fans that he hasn’t lost his touch one bit.

During the same time he released Khaza, he suggested that he was a bachelor, once again. The release of “Super General” included accusations of infidelity between himself and his wife, Dreka Gates. Though she never necessarily confirmed it, Gates continued to frolic around, attempting to woo Summer Walker and his apparent fling with Brittney Renner. Ultimately, he appeared to be enjoying life as a single man. However, it seems like he and Dreka Gates recently rekindled their romance.

Kevin Gates Releases Music Video For New Single “Breakfast” Starring Dreka

This morning, Gates returned with his first release of 2023 with “Breakfast.” The rapper links up with DJ Chose for the record, delivering an abundance of raunchy bars while providing a healthy dose of machoism that we’ve known from Gates. He doesn’t hold back from the details, either, using food as a euphemism for sex. On the first verse, he delves into his melodic side while reflecting on his bedroom fantasies and everything he’ll do to please his woman.

Gates unveiled a music video for the single, too. Dreka Gates serves as the leading lady, which appears to be a confirmation that they’re back together. The video opens up with Kevin surprising Dreka with a new home secluded from the city before sharing intimate moments with one another. It’s an unconventional setting for a music video yet effectively sultry for another strong release from Gates. Hopefully, the new single leads to a new project later this year. Check the new song above.

Quotable Lyrics
Bread winner, Major League Mafia, swingin’
And we up the bet, my big brother came back and we back havin’ motion
Gorilla four, we been overseas, metro ton load on the submarine, come out the ocean

‘P-Valley’: Here’s All The Music You Heard In Season 2, Episode 2

by
P-Valley Season 2 Uncle Clifford
STARZ

(SPOILERS for this week’s P-Valley episode will be found below.)

Last week, during the season two premiere of P-Valley, we returned to the lives of Uncle Clifford, Mercedes, and Hailey (fka Autumn Night) to see that The Pynk is struggling a bit due to the coronavirus pandemic. Chucalissa, the city in Mississippi where the strip club is located, eventually lifts COVID restrictions, allowing The Pynk to work its way to a “grand re-re-re-opening.” Things are also different now as Clifford and Hailey are now co-owners of The Pynk.

Furthermore, The Pynk is welcoming a new cast of strippers to P-Valley ahead of The Pynk’s “grand re-re-re-opening.” In episode two, we see which strippers are selected while we also get a look into Mercedes’ struggles, Hailey’s complicated relationship with Andre, Uncle Murda’s career and relationship with Clifford, and Keyshawn’s own aspirations.

The aforementioned events in this week’s episode are soundtracked by songs that help to accentuate the emotions behind each scene. They include Jucee Froot’s thumping “Down In The Valley” which serves as the theme song for the series.

What Songs Were In ‘P-Valley’ S2E2?

The songs that soundtracked the standout moments on this week’s episode of P-Valley are DJ Chose’s “Thick” with Beatking and Bubba Sparxxx’s “Ms. New Booty” with Ying Yang Twins and Mr. Collipark as well as Beyonce’s “7/11.” DJ Chose and Bubba Sparxxx’s records appear in the first few moments of the show as Uncle Clifford, Hailey, and Mercedes hold auditions for new strippers at The Pynk. The ladies wait in line – as one even flirts with Big L – and later show off their skills on the pole.

Beyonce’s “7/11” plays during the “grand re-re-re-opening” of The Pynk. It’s here that Mercedes takes the stage with two of the new strippers. Unfortunately, Mercedes takes a big fall as a result of her shoulder giving out due to an injury she let linger for too long. The fall reunites Clifford, Hailey, Dante, and Mercedes for the first time since the chaos that went down during Murda Night.

The soundtrack for this week’s episode also includes the following songs:
Rick Ross – “B.M.F. (Blowin’ Money Fast)” Feat. Styles P
S3nsi Molly & Lil Brook – “Texas”
DJ Zirk – “Lock’em N Da Trunk”
DJ Jimi – “Where They At”
Snoop Dogg – “Down 4 My N’s” Feat. C-Murder & Magic
Shawnna – “Gettin’ Some”
Darondo – “I’m Lonely”
Valerie June – “Stay”
