Rising rap sensation Yeat has released the official video for his track “FLYTROOP,” under Lyfestyle Corporation, Field Trip, and Capitol Records. The visual places him in a dark, aggressive landscape, enhancing the apocalyptic vibe of his latest album LYFESTYLE. With booming bass lines, pitch-bending synths, and Yeat’s powerful vocal delivery, the video is as chaotic and captivating as the album itself.
LYFESTYLE, released October 18, hit a major milestone last month by debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking Yeat’s first chart-topping album. The 22-track project saw impressive first-week sales of 89,000 equivalent album units, making it his highest first-week sales to date. LYFESTYLE also became Yeat’s fifth top-10 debut in under three years.
Featuring big names like Lil Durk, Don Toliver, and Kodak Black, the album debuted at No. 1 on Spotify’s Top Album Debut chart worldwide and in the U.S., with tracks “GEEK TIMË” and “STFU” also trending. On Apple Music, LYFESTYLE is charting across 100+ countries.
Today, GRAMMY-nominated recording artist and CMG signee GloRilla released her new video for “I LUV HER” featuring T-Pain. Directed by Benny Boom, GloRilla meets the love of her life in actor Da’Vinchi (known for his roles in All American & BMF) in an alternate universe, where the two become inseparable.
From dinner dates to having a baby, Glo and Da’Vinchi become the power couple they’ve always envisioned they could be. Unfortunately, for them both, it was merely a figment of their imagination, leaving both to ponder the potential possibilities. “I LUV HER” resides on Glo’s debut album GLORIOUS, which remains a strong player on the Billboard 200 after debuting at No. 5 during its opening week in October.
The new visual comes after GloRilla landed two Grammy nominations for her double platinum single “Yeah Glo!” in the Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance categories, solidifying her stellar run this year. Most recently, she also earned the second Billboard Hot 100 top 10 song of her career as a feature on Tyler, The Creator’s “Sticky.”
Under the tutelage of CMG founder and CEO Yo Gotti, Big Glo continues to be a force in hip-hop after the release of her debut album, GLORIOUS. The star-studded album includes features from Megan Thee Stallion, Latto, Sexyy Red, Kirk Franklin, Bossman Dlo, Fridayy, T-Pain, Muni Long, Kierra Sheard, Maverick City Music, and Chandler Moore.

Gunna has officially released the music video for his single “Him All Along,” bringing fans an immersive visual experience that complements the track’s boastful lyrics. In the video, Gunna takes on scenes different from the ones we are used to seeing the rapper. Gunna hits the barns with horses and the golf courses with the baddies but still makes it back to Atlanta for the community. All the while he keeps a baddie with him. Catch him pull out the Porsche in the video below.
YSL frontrunner Gunna drops his first video after the plea deal release of Young Thug, which is aptly titled “Him All Along” on the Young Stoner Life / 300 Entertainment imprint. With the track produced by Turbo and Yung Bleu, the visual takes the viewer on a day in the life of one of the most controversial figures in Hip Hop’s current landscape.
Filmed in Sanlúcar de Berrameda, the Marbella Country Club in Malaga, Spain, Van Nuys, California and all the way back to his hometown of ATL, Gunna shows his international connects that collectively all lead back to his ATLien roots.
Meanwhile, 2024 saw Gunna topple the charts with One of Wun—which crashed the Billboard 200 at #2 and emerged as his fifth Top 5 debut and set the stage for his massive THE BITTERSWEET TOUR. With more music and major moves on the horizon, Gunna will continue to change the culture forever.
Shaboozey’s hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” remains at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for an impressive 17th week, solidifying its place as the longest-leading No. 1 solo track in the chart’s 66-year history. This achievement surpasses Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night,” which held the top spot for 16 weeks in 2023.

To date, five singles have held record-breaking positions on the Hot 100, with longer reigns becoming more common since the chart began incorporating Luminate data in 1991. “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is the latest in this exclusive list, among 1,175 total No. 1 hits dating back to the chart’s inception on August 4, 1958.

The “WAR” video pays homage to Fight Club, reimagining the film’s chaos and rebellion for its 25th anniversary. In the video, Kluster Flux and NASAAN channel the movie’s primal themes, creating a visual and sonic experience that feels like an adrenaline rush. “I wanted to make something raw and authentic, and NASAAN was the perfect collaborator,” says Kluster Flux.
The release is a powerful fusion, with Kluster Flux’s intricate production pulsing alongside NASAAN’s sharp lyricism. Known for his innovative approach, Kluster Flux has avoided traditional labels, founding his own, Wicked Enterprises. Reflecting on Fight Club’s influence, he adds, “It’s about breaking boundaries, and this video captures that.”
His next single, “Overdose,” featuring Rick Ross and Gucci Mane, promises to push creative boundaries further, bringing listeners into a dark, cinematic soundscape.
