The long-awaited final album from Juice WRLD, The Party Never Ends, is out now via Grade A Productions and Interscope Records. Featuring high-profile collaborations with Eminem, Fall Out Boy, Nicki Minaj, Offset, and The Kid LAROI and production from Benny Blanco, Nick Mira, and Cashmere Cat, the album celebrates the late rapper’s legacy as a once-in-a-generation artist.

“’The Party Never Ends‘ is finally here; I’m glad Jarad‘s fans are getting the music they have been anxiously awaiting! When Jarad was a toddler, he developed a love for globes that lasted for years; he was fascinated with spinning them. Reflecting on that, I realize that was prophetic of what would come. He grew to become the artist Juice WRLD, and touched people worldwide through his music. His lyrics were heartfelt and expressed his challenges with mental health and addiction. Jarad’s transparency made people feel like they were not alone; I consider him a pioneer in normalizing the conversation about mental health.  I hope that his music continues to have a positive impact on the lives of others around the world, and it is my prayer that people do not suffer in silence.”

Carmela Wallace, Mother of Jared “Juice WRLD” Higgins 

Accompanying the release is a Steve Cannon-directed video for “Misfit,” a track that sees Juice turning outsider identity into triumphant self-expression. Cannon, a frequent Juice collaborator, delivers a visual tribute to fans finding solace in Juice’s music.

The Party Never Ends coincides with Juice WRLD Day 2024, happening Saturday, November 30, at Chicago’s United Center. The event will feature an exclusive listening experience, performances by Kodak Black, Lil Yachty, Polo G, and more, plus a Fortnite tournament hosted by Xbox.

The album dives deep into Juice WRLD’s colorful, complex psyche, offering fans a final, bittersweet connection to the beloved artist.

Lila Iké, the Jamaican singer-songwriter, brings the warmth and intimacy of cooking a beloved Jamaican staple to life in her latest track and video, “Fry Plantain,” out via Wurl Iké Records & In.Digg.Nation Collective under exclusive license to Ineffable Records.

With just heat, salt, and oil sizzling on the stovetop, the simple ingredients mirror the chemistry between  Lila Iké and her co-star, Brooklyn-born rapper/actor Joey Bada$$. Joey reprises his role as Lila Iké’s love interest, having previously appeared in the video for her previous song “He Loves Us Both” featuring H.E.R.. Directed by DJUVII, the visuals capture intimate moments of Lila cooking for Joey, setting the stage for their island adventure. 

“It’s always a pleasure to work with Joey. I first met him for my ‘He Loves Us Both’ video with H.E.R., where he actually suggested we hop on a song together, says Lila. “I was really excited I had ‘Fry Plantain’ done already and thought it could use a rapper like himself to take it to the next level, and that he did. A few months later, he flew to Jamaica and we shot the video. It was very fun. I took him around the island and had a great weekend shooting and enjoying good food and music.”

After an eight-year hiatus, rap icon and entertainment mogul Ice Cube has released his 11th studio album, Man Down, via Lench Mob Records. The 19-track project, available across all DSPs, solidifies Cube’s legacy with his signature West Coast funk and unflinching storytelling, delving into themes of manhood, authenticity, and resilience.

“This album is about showing up as your best self,” Cube says, highlighting its exploration of ego, authenticity, standing firm in your beliefs, and the bonds of brotherhood. “I’ve always stood by the mantra, ‘you’re now about to witness the strength of street knowledge,’” he reflects, emphasizing his career-long commitment to truth and cultural awareness.

The album’s lead single, “It’s My Ego,” has already made waves, debuting at #7 on Billboard’s “Rap Digital Song Sales” chart and amassing over 5.4 million YouTube views. Its success underscores Cube’s enduring influence across generations.

The cover art of Man Down delivers a poignant visual narrative. The front depicts a young boy walking past fallen figures, symbolizing the consequences of societal collapse when responsibility and purpose falter. The back continues the imagery with a young girl navigating the same scene, underscoring the shared burdens across genders and generations. “If all the real men stop doing what they’re supposed to, the world will stop. Nothing would move,” Cube explains.

Featuring collaborations with B-Real, Xzibit, and Snoop Dogg, and production from Zaytoven, David Banner, and more, Man Down combines nostalgia with cultural critique. Tracks like “She’s Sanctified” and “Talkin’ Bout These Rappers” showcase Cube’s versatility as both a storyteller and a commentator on societal issues, ensuring Man Down resonates as a bold and reflective addition to his legendary discography.

Rising Detroit rap star Skilla Baby returns to his fan-favorite Crack Music mixtape series with CM3, out today via Geffen Records. The 16-track set comes packed with menacing beats, quotable bars, and select guests including 4batzToosiiTee Grizzley, and Hunxho.

Skilla Baby comes in hot on opener “Donovan Mcnabb.” After an intro calls out haters for falsely claiming “Skilla ain’t in the streets, Skilla only makes girl music,” he makes it clear that he’s out for blood and money: “AYE! A hundred thousand every week, I’m in my bag / Richer then I ever f—-g been, that’s probably why they mad.” His voice is raw, the production is booming, and his lines hit with hard punchlines and heavy truths.

CM3 thrives in this space, as Hunxho pops in to flex alongside Skilla Baby on the victorious “Can’t Afford It,” and 4Batz joins in to celebrate loyal ladies on the previously released So Bad which included a mansion party video. When Skilla Baby and Tee Grizzley reunite on “Controversy 2” (the sequel to their 2023 collab), their bar-for-bar chemistry makes the case for a new Detroit rap superduo.

Today, Platinum-selling rapper Lola Brooke (Team Eighty Productions/Arista Records) unleashes her new song, “Go To Yo Head.”

The anthemic, unruly track finds the breakout emcee in her lyrically-savvy element, delivering poignant punchlines to match her chilling bravado voice. “Go To Yo Head”  finds the 4′ 9 giant exuding a commanding presence, demanding just-do respect from a suitor. Whether or not one is in over their head dealing with Brooklyn’s finest, Lola flexes on wax while dictating her commandments as a supreme Rap sensation who means business. Instead of entertaining games, she makes it known to come correct with genuineness and groundedness—with a splash of glamour— to vie for her attention.
 
Going on record about the track, Lola further shares, “There’s no room to get big-headed and think for a second that Lola is that girl to be played with. That’s the energy on Go To Yo  Head. I’m a step on heads every time if they come for mine.”
 
“Go To Yo Head” follows the release of Lola’s collaboration single “No One Else” featuring Jeremih, which arrived earlier this season. The rap and R&B-style track was presented with a glossy official music video directed by MadebyJames [Isaiah Rashad, Smino].
