Jay Worthy Builds On His Momentum With Album Single “105 West” Featuring Ty Dolla $ign, Channel Tres & More

by

Jay Worthy is always going to be a popular voice in the underground hip-hop scene, especially on the West Coast. However, after popping out to The Pop Out: Ken and Friends a couple of days ago, this could be one of the most vital turning points in his career. On top of that, if Kendrick Lamar is indeed shooting a music video for “Not Like Us” in Compton, that would be the cherry on top. Because of all of this, he has chance to break into the mainstream, that is of course if he wants to. He is already extremely successful in his lane and does not absolutely need some viral moment to propel his career. In that same breath though, Jay Worthy is definitely capitalizing on this period, dropping a new single “105 West”.

This is a massive collaboration track, as it features DaM-FunK, A-Trak, Ty Dolla $ign, Channel Tres, and DJ Quik. On “105 West”, Jay Worthy and the crew bring the ultimate California summer vibes, as the production from DaM-FunK is playing heavy on the synth-funk sound. Everyone delivers great and energizing performances, especially Ty Dolla $ign, as he interpolates the melody from the chorus on Snoop Dogg’s “Gin & Juice”. On top of this being a great track on its own, it will soon find a home on an upcoming Jay and DaM-FunK album. According to Stereogum, Magic Hour will hit streaming platforms sometime next month. If “105 West” has shown us anything, it is that this project will be one to remember for the year and perhaps beyond. The West Coast notches another W for the books.

Kamaiyah Reveals Release Date For New Album “Figuring Out My Emotions”

by

Kamaiyah isn’t here to be complacent. The Oakland rapper drops multiple times a year because she wants to hone her craft and ensure that fans are up to date with her life. It’s worked wonders. She’s amassed a loyal fanbase over the last decade, and her last album, Another Summer Night, earned positive reviews from critics. Kamaiyah looks to keep the winning streak going strong with her new album, Figuring Out My Emotions.

Figuring Out My Emotions is a more intimate collection of songs than its predecessor, as the title might suggest. The album is executive produced by Kamaiyah, and the lead single, “No Pressure,” delves into more serious subject matter while maintaining a slick, Bay Area sound. The rapper confirmed the rest of the album will drop on Friday, May 17. She also dropped off the artwork and tracklist. The former is right in line with the chilled-out vibe of the aforementioned single. Kamaiyah lays down on a dock near a body of water. No text or logos. Just an artist and the ocean.

Kamaiyah’s New Album Drops On May 17

The tracklist is impressively brief. Another Summer Night was a sprawling album with 17 songs, but Figuring Out My Emotions comes in at a tight eight. There are no listed features on the album. That being said, rap artists like to hide their features until the fans get a chance to listen. Kamaiyah usually reserves a spot for West Coast peers like 03 Greedo or Jay Worthy (both of whom appeared on Another Summer Night).

Kamaiyah explained her approach to dropping during a recent interview with KQED. “It’s not the ’90s or early 2000s, like, nobody is catching a hit that lasts for a f*cking year anymore,” she asserted. “People’s attention spans are so short. If you got the attention, keep it. And only way you keep it is more sh*t in their face. It’s got to be organic.”

Figuring Out My Emotions tracklist:

  1. Be Mine
  2. Can’t Lose
  3. DND
  4. Link Wit Me
  5. One & Only
  6. No Pressure
  7. Success
  8. Winter Blues

Jay Worthy Goes Off On “Christopher Walken” Featuring Jake One

by

Canadian rapper Jay Worthy has been a busy man in 2023. In these 11 months, he has dropped two full-length albums and tons of singles. In addition, he even landed on a few big-time records as well. The first tape he was a part of was actually a collaborative record that came out at the end of May. He and another underground legend, Roc Marciano went toe-to-toe on their tight 12-track tape, Nothing Bigger Than The Program. It would only take him another five months to release his second team album.

THE AM3RICAN DREAM threw another mic into the mix. West coast femcee, Kamaiyah, and one of the true producing pioneers, Harry Fraud, helped out Jay. That trio provided some lyrically heavy bangers such as one of the headlining singles, “9AM.” Sticky flows and ear-grabbing production can be found all over Jay’s last LP. Even with all of the success he has had, he wants to keep it going.

Jay Worthy Links With Kamaiyah And Producer Harry Fraud For “THE AM3RICAN DREAM”

by

Jay Worthy, Kamaiyah, and Harry Fraud are back once again, but this time it is for something bigger. That something is the collaborative album that sees all three of them combine their talents effortlessly. The tape, THE AM3RICAN DREAM, features nine tracks, including production all from Harry Fraud. All three headlining artists are not alone on this journey, though.

There is plenty of extra star power throughout the tracklist. You will see appearances from Guapdad 4000, Buddy, Max B, Ty Dolla $ign, DRAM, and more. Most of the beats here are very boom-bap-heavy and are buttery smooth. It contrasts well with Worthy and Kamaiyah’s sometimes grimy lyrics. Before this project’s release, we only had one single in promotion for it.

Brooklyn, Oakland, and Vancouver all collide for a new single. Those cities are home to Harry Fraud, Kamaiyah, and Jay Worthy, respectively. Worthy has had a busy 2023, to say the least. Back at the start of summer, he and Roc Marciano dropped a joint album called Nothing Bigger Than The Program. It also sported features from Bun B, Ab-Soul, A$AP ANT, and more. On top of that release, the rapper has been putting out a steady flow of singles and features.

He has been working with the likes of Hit-Boy, Wiz Khalifa, and now Kamaiyah and Harry Fraud. Worthy and Fraud have already teamed up together with their single “GS 350.” However, this newest single with the producer “9AM,” will be on another upcoming project.

My best friend still locked in the pinta and servin’ life bid

The Alchemist Announces The Release Date For ‘Flying High’ Featuring Earl Sweatshirt, Larry June, And More

Earl Sweatshirt and The Alchemist are once again teaming up for a release, with both artists sharing the cover art for something called Flying High dropping this Friday, June 30. While fans appear to be speculating that it’s a joint album from Earl and Al with the latter on production, the two have given few details, although clicking on the cover art on Alchemist’s post pulls up the names of some of their frequent collaborators like Billy Woods, Boldy James, Jay Worthy, Larry June, and MIKE, suggesting that it could be The Alchemist’s project with all those rappers featured.

The Alchemist has worked with most of the artists listed above as recently as early this year. He and Boldy James have released four projects together to date, with the most recent being Super Tecmo Bo in 2021, while he and Larry June dropped The Great Escape this March. Billy Woods appeared on the album Haram as part of the duo Armand Hammer with Elucid, while MIKE teamed up with Al and Wiki late last year for the EP One More.

Of course, Earl has perhaps the most storied history with Alchemist; they infamously released a “secret album” to YouTube under a fake name and supposedly have another with Vince Staples recorded, although there appears to be some disagreement on its existence even among themselves.

In any case, Flying High is due 6/30 via Alchemist’s own ALC Records.
