Southern California recording artist Price has had a rollercoaster career that has seen the highest of highs and lowest of lows; however, been nothing but blissful these past few years with several hit songs and a new deal with Motown Records. Now, with a new E.P. on the way, he taps popular heartthrob Elhae for the project’s first single and music video, “Without You.” “Without you … easily my best visual yet,” Price tweets Thursday afternoon (Mar 3).

A tribute to the classic 2Pac and Janet Jackson-starring classic film, Poetic Justice (1993), the captivating cinematic visual follows Price as he moves through various stages of life, from dating to marriage to fatherhood. Elhae pulls up for the cameo with a fiery falsetto. Together, they trade young, fly, and flashy styles with melodies and a soul-stirring hook.  

Price’s new single further validates his newfound appeal and deal with Motown, which involves his imprint, C.L.R.D. Entertainment. “This why you start and build your own brand,” he tweets. “Create your own value and leverage. I did a partnership with Motown records and signed ME TO ME after building leverage and momentum. put my own dough up. mf’s gotta come in MY OFFICE now. live and learn my ppl. # C.L.R.D.E.N.T. citch.”

[WATCH] Conway the Machine Releases “Stressed” Video

by
Conway The Machine Stressed

Conway has dug back into his GOD DON’T MAKE MISTAKES bag to create a video for “Stressed.”

Conway broke down his own walls by sharing his tale with the world, and GOD DON’T MAKE MISTAKES portrays him in a completely different light as a result of his candor. Conway provided his admirers with a mirror into his life by being vulnerable and thoughtful. GOD DON’T MAKE MISTAKES is an open and honest depiction of a guy grappling with his own inner demons and struggle.

“Does it matter that I’m stressed?” “Stressed,” perhaps more than any other song on GOD DON’T MAKE MISTAKES, emphasizes that window into his soul. Conway discusses his cousin’s suicide, childhood abuse, the death of his young son, addiction, trauma, and the debilitating Bells Palsy diagnosis he’s had since being shot in the head, which nearly killed him.

The new album features appearances and production from Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Benny The Butcher, Westside Gunn, Jill Scott, T.I., Beanie Sigel, Hit-Boy, The Alchemist, Daringer, Beat Butcha, Bink, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, Novel, Keisha Plum, Cosmo Beats, and Conway’s Drumwork label artists Jae Skeese and 7xvethegenius.

The new album serves as Conway‘s origin story equipped with stories of decisions and battling inner demons, while also celebrating wins, love, and losses.

“It was tough opening up doors that I haven’t opened up in a while.  This is my story and sharing it all with the world is different for me, but I was happy to do it” Conway states.  “I know fans will love it.” 

You can hear the new album below.

Aretha Franklin's Granddaughter Sings "Ain't No Way" During 'American Idol' Audition

American Idol returned on Sunday night and featured a notable contestant, Aretha Franklin’s 15-year-old granddaughter, Grace Franklin.

The Detroit teen appeared in front of judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan, and sang “Killing Me Softly,” by Lauryn Hill and her late grandma’s classic single “Ain’t No Way.”

“I don’t think I could fully grasp the fact that she was famous worldwide,” Grace said. “Because to me, she was always grandma.”

While she sang her grandmother’s song, Grace stated, “I am my own artist and I have my own voice.” Unfortunately, for Grace, she received two No’s, from Richie and Bryan, the former who stated she was not yet ready.
