The founder and CEO of 25/8 No Breaks Inc and a founding member of All Money In Records, J. Stone has been overcoming adversity his entire life.
From the onset of his life, he has been confronted with loss. At three, his mother passed. An aunt became his guardian before succumbing to cancer. One year later, J lost his brother Alvin to street violence. Throughout his teens and twenties, he endured a revolving door of incarcerations, group homes, and getting shot. Meanwhile, he connected with an associate from the neighborhood who shared his passion, goals, and fierce work ethic: Nipsey Hussle.
For well over a decade, the Crenshaw native has put in undisputed work on the mic. However, his association is forever closest to longtime friend and business partner Nipsey Hussle. Grinding away out of nothing with a matched drive to win, J Stone reached over 10 million views and streams with “The Marathon Continues” tribute. Adding to an album series that Nipsey architected during their All Money In No Money Out days
As Nip’ recalled on J Stone’s 2019 tribute “The Marathon Continues,” they recorded each other in Hussle’s makeshift bedroom studio. They worked side by side on J’s The Grind Don’t Stop, Nipsey’s Bullets Ain’t Got No Name, Vol. 2. and J added a standout solo song, “All Get Right,” too Nipsey’s revolutionary Crenshaw.
After shining on one of the highest-profile mixtapes of all time, J. Stone went deeper. The Coldest Story Ever, 25 / 8 No Brakes, and Neighborhood Watch became catalog milestones, which helped All Money partner with a major label, Nipsey then urged J to create the series that would propel him further. Although Nip’ was unable to see it, The Definition Of Loyalty met that challenge. After nearly quitting music after the tragic 2019 loss of Nipsey, J. Stone let hurt become hunger, evident on The Definition Of Pain (2020). Both albums peaked at #2 on the iTunes Hip Hop charts.
Now, J. Stone’s new album, The Definition Of Sacrifice, (which completes his “Definition” trilogy) raises the stakes. The album features appearances and production from Young Dolph (RIP), Swizz Beatz, Jadakiss, Mozzy, OT Genasis, Styles P, K Camp and Lumidee.
“I feel like I’m one of the dopest lyricists from L.A. and The Definition Of Sacrifice will prove it. I am South Central’s advocate” J. Stone asserts.
Inglewood’s Lil Duece is one of the most indispensable voices to come out of his city. Forever feeling badgered to put his best foot forward Duece is prepared to deliver his long-awaited and buzz-worthy effort entitled Forever Pressured.
In the 13-track collection, Lil Duece nabs talented producers Don Cannon, Killa Cam, Romo, LowTheGreat, and DbThePlug to create a signature sound that’s sure to be the foundation for his success in the future. Features on the project include RJ, Jerry West, and Seddy Hendrix.
The theme for the cover art includes photos of Lil Duece’s friends who have unfortunately passed within the last 2 years. The word “pressured” is designed in a diamond blue to symbolize and promote the strength that according to the artist, we all should continue to have after going through hard times, similar to the characteristics of a diamond.
The 26-year-old wordsmith has been on the uprise for years and has established his position through a number of hit tracks including his most recent viral offering and the lead single “Outside”. The infectious track has now surpassed a collective 1.5 million streams across all platforms and over 1 million views on YouTube since its release in mid-February 2021.
Available everywhere via Dirty Bird Entertainment, you may stream Forever Pressured below.
Gunna is keeping the DS4EVER momentum going, dropping the video for “Banking On Me.” The new video comes from the album that has surpassed 1.5 billion streams and over 955,000 albums sold. The album features Future, Young Thug, Kodak Black, and more.
Earlier this week, Gunna shared a open letter to fans and the public on social media. Currently being held in Fulton County Jail, Gunna spoke about the opportunity that he provided for other professionals and his loved ones.
“The picture that is being painted of me is ugly and untrue. My fans know I love to celebrate life, I love my family, I love travel, I love music, I love my fans. I have all faith that God will grant me justice for the purity in my heart and the innocence of my actions.”
Gunna also spoke to the constraints on his art as a freedom of expression:
“My art is now allowed to stand alone as entertainment, I’m not allowed that freedom as a Black Man in America. It is a sad reality that slavery is still alive in America today and still affecting my people. In 12 states more than half of the prison population is Black, one of those states is Georgia.”
Key Glock delivers his video for “No Choice,” the latest song to receive video treatment from his recent project, Yellow Tape 2. In May, he wrapped up his solo countrywide tour featuring double-digit sold-out dates (Deluxe).
In the music video for “No Choice,” Glock is the only person in a snowy Aspen home as he reflects on his upbringing and the difficult background that drives his hard work. The visual is mixed with photos from “The Yellow Tape Tour,” which demonstrates that although the paper chase frequently seems glamorous, it comes with a toll of its own.
