Jorja Smith Taps Three French Rappers For “GO GO GO” EP

by

Jorja Smith has one of the most stunning voices in all of soul/pop/R&B. The veteran from the UK has been delivering some dreamy tracks for about eight years now. She has given fans a lot of singles and loosies since her debut in 2018, Lost & Found. However, after a long five-year wait, she came through with her sophomore tape falling or flying. Fans began to got word of it being in the works after Jorja Smith dropped her first solo single since May 2023, “GO GO GO.”

The song was fun but also a middle finger to a man not wanting commitment. Pop rock in tone, it further showcased Jorja’s multi-faceted abilities. Since falling or flying, she delivered a performance for The Color Purple soundtrack. However, nothing has really dropped since. But do not fret, Jorja decided to revive the fan-favorite “GO GO GO” for a new EP of the same name.

In fact, “GO GO GO” is not the only song receiving some reworks. “Blue Lights” is also getting some love, as Jorja adds French rappers Josman and Dosseh to each one respectively. It is safe to say that she was inspired to do this based on Oboy’s inclusion for a remix of “Come Over” which originally had Popcaan on it. Oboy’s version is the third in the trio of French remakes. Be sure to check them out above.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new EP, GO GO GO, by Jorja Smith? Is this one of her best songs in the last year or so, why or why not? Who added the most to three tracks and why? Was it worth adding Josman to “GO GO GO?” We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

SiR Presents Some Of Deepest Material On “HEAVY”

by

Inglewood, California’s own SiR has been wowing us over the past few months with two incredible singles. January’s “NO EVIL” was the Top Dawg entertainer’s first solo single in a year and a half and it floored us. Perhaps his most powerful performance of his career in terms of vocals, it was an homage to the legend D’Angelo. It is a song that still burns for us two months later. Then, he came back in February with “KARMA” featuring fellow labelmate Isaiah Rashad. It was about staring down their mistakes and dealing with the consequences to follow.

Both of these personal tracks certainly did an excellent job at promoting SiR’s long-awaited project HEAVY. This is the R&B veteran’s first record since 2019’s Chasing Summer which boasted hits like “Hair Down,” “John Redcorn,” and “You Can’t Save Me.” In a recent interview with That Good Sh*t, SiR talked about the meaning behind HEAVY. “What I’m talking about is the heaviest. Yeah I mean it’s the truth, on steroids,” he explains.

“People need to hear it I think. As much as it might hurt or as much as it might take you somewhere you don’t want to be, it’s what you need,” SiR adds. You are going to get a HEAVY dosage of those messages across the record, and they are rewarding experiences. The production is rich, lush, beautiful and hard-hitting. SiR is bringing dynamic performances as well and so far we are enjoying tracks like “I’M NOT PERFECT,” “SIX WHOLE DAYS,” and “YOU.”

What are your thoughts on this brand-new album, HEAVY, by SiR? Is this his best project to date, why or why not? What songs are you gravitating toward and why? Is the strongest TDE release this year, why or why not? Who had the best guest performance on the record?

Montell Fish’s Alter Ego DJ Gummy Bear Delivers Meditative Cuts On “Intercession Before Charlotte”

by

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania genre-bending artist Montell Fish received our first coverage last week for his single with dj gummy bear “Irrational.” However, the latter is not another artist. In fact, it is an alter ego, if you will. The single was to promote Montell Fish’s/gummy’s EP Intercession Before Charlotte. Well, today the “duo” is here to deliver that project and it features six tracks with zero features. Essentially, think of gummy bear as a producer and Montell is the performer.

After listening to the tape, this may be the most relaxing thing we have heard this year. The production takes center stage with elements of lo-fi and alternative. Montell’s lyrics are little bit of an afterthought, but not in a bad way. It just seems that this was clearly more of a dj gummy bear project compared to a Fish album.

Listen To Intercession Before Charlotte By Montell Fish & DJ Gummy Bear

Additionally, this will not be the last we hear from Montell. At some point, he will be dropping the follow-up Charlotte, which is going to be an LP. The meaning for this EP, according to a Hypebeast interview, was for dj gummy bear to keep Montell away from the distractions of fame. That will be talked about on Charlotte. He explains it further in the chat with the publication, but the other meaning behind Intercession is a distraction from the LP itself, meaning he needs more time to get it done.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new EP, Intercession Before Charlotte, by Montell Fish and dj gummy bear? Is this his best project to date, why or why not? What songs are you gravitating toward and why? Are you excited for their upcoming album? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

by

At the backend of January we covered out first material from Pro Era rapper Chuck Strangers in over three years. The Brooklynite had been gearing up for his comeback album with the release of the single “Ski’d Up.” We thoroughly enjoyed the track in every way from Chuck’s focused flows and The Alchemist’s smooth, woodwind beat. Now, Chuck Strangers is back to deliver on that album, which is called A Forsaken Lover’s Plea.

Kenny Mason Finally Delivers New LP “9”

by

Kenny Mason is a rapper from Atlanta, Georgia that has always been an intriguing name since he got started in 2016. For most listeners though, he did not really start getting some notoriety until about 2020. That is when he put out his first full project Angelic Hoodrat. Then, in 2022, the multi-talent put out his longest tape to date, RUFFS, with 16 tracks. However, he has not really come close to dropping something that large since. That trend of shorter LPs continues for Kenny Mason on his latest offering 9.

This is somewhat of a continuation of Mason’s previous number titles, 6 and 3, with the latter being an EP. For this third multiple of three record, he is showcasing his abilities to make digestible and dark trap cuts. However, to add to his appeal, Kenny sprinkles in some tracks such as “LUMINOUS” were he rides a smooth and elegant boom-bap instrumental. On top of this solid output, he has some other exciting things happening.

Flo Milli Further Cements Her Identity On “Fine Ho, Stay”

by

Southern hip-hop is one of the main pillars of hip-hop and it has given us some of the best artists and tracks in its history. Of course, with every new face that decides to embody this style, things are not going to be how they once were. For Flo Milli on Fine Ho, Stay, she is showing that it does not always have be to super grimy. While she does like to portray a lot of sexual themes in her music, she makes it a little more lighthearted.

“Never Lose Me,” the album’s one and only single, is the perfect example of that. It has that pop rap appeal with the softer kick drums and delivery from Flo. After hearing this record, it becomes clearer and clearer that she is a master of catchy melodies and sticky cadences. “New Me,” “Neva,” “Toast,” and “Edible,” are some that show this ability.

Bktherula Levels Up On “LVL5 P2”

by

Atlanta, Georgia rapper and singer Bktherula is one of the most fun and intriguing voices in the trap scene period. In a landscape where predictability is more and more common nowadays, she definitely goes against the grain. It is great to see that, especially for the short amount of time she has been in the game. 2019 was the year she released her first single and from there, she continues to show steady growth. Bktherula’s off-kilter style and flows may not be everyone’s taste, but at least she is bringing some fresh ideas to the table on LVL5 P2.

If that title looks familiar to you, that is because this new album is a sequel to LVL5 P1, which saw its release in 2023. The P1 and P2, according to the press release, stand for player one and player two. Bktherula is big gaming fan and we can certainly see it. Some of the beats she chooses sound like they would fit right at home in a space exploration video game.

They complement her dreamy voice to a tee on songs like “FEATHERS,” “JUST MAKE SURE,” and “WISHUWASDACREW.” There are also a pair of impressive guests here, with JID and Cash Cobain. JID just continues to prove that he can mold his delivery to any instrumental on “WOMAN.” As for Cobain, his production style evolves again on the provocative “SHAKIN IT.” He manages to sample the popular TikTok track “Let Go” by Ark Patrol and Veronikka Redd. Bktherula is showing on LVL5 P2 that she is a voice that you need to continue to keep your ears on.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new album, LVL5 P2, by Bktherula? Was this record worth the wait for you so far, why or why not? What songs are you gravitating toward right now and why?

Tierra Whack Showcases Her Impressive Range “WORLD WIDE WHACK”

by

For about seven years, fans have come to know Tierra Whack as the cooky, colorful, and happy-go-lucky personality in hip-hop. The Philadelphia, Pennsylvania native definitely embraces it, especially when it comes to her writing, music videos, outfits, and her flows. Almost everything she does comes across as original, and nearly never derivative. While Tierra Whack is still showcasing her wild side on her new project, WORLD WIDE WHACK, she also peeling back some extra layers. It is definitely a great idea to explore, especially on your official debut album.

Yes, after all this time, we finally have it, even though she did drop an LP back in 2018 with Whack World. In our opinion though, Tierra had a lot of unfinished ideas on that tape. Part of the reason for that was due to the scant runtimes of each track. However, WORLD WIDE WHACK takes a deeper dive into her what makes her tick.

Listen To WORLD WIDE WHACK By Tierra Whack

What you will find is more personal cuts about anxiety, numbness, sui***e, drugs, love, and more. We got a hint that Tierra would be going in a slightly different direction after the “27 CLUB” single. Definitely the total opposite of the other teasers “CHANEL PIT” and “SHOWER SONG.” Even though a song like “27 CLUB” is so dark, she manages to add some body and character to them. Whack applies her eccentric deliveries and production styles that still fit the colorless and emotional moments that make WORLD WIDE WHACK familiar but different.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new album, WORLD WIDE WHACK, by Tierra Whack? Was this record worth the wait for you so far, why or why not? What songs are you gravitating toward right now and why? Did she make the right choice by not including any features on it?

Blu & Shafiq Husayn Drop Off A Hazy Three-Pack With Their “Roll Up” EP

by

Blu, one of the most talented rappers when it comes to both flow and writing, is back with a new trio of cuts for us. 2024 has proven to be a busy one already, as the Los Angeles California artist has dropped a single, an EP, and a collaborative album. Going back to that EP for a second, that was also a team effort. He worked with producer Shafiq Husayn to bring along We Bang. Similar to Blu and Shafiq’s newest set of tracks, Roll Up, We Bang included three recordings as well.

According to Blu and Nature Sounds’ Instagram accounts, both of these small care packages will be a part of something larger. “Blu and Shafiq Husayn are now announcing Out Of The Blue, a new album set for release on March 29th.” This will mark their second tape together, going back to the 2018 mixtape The Blueprint. While “We Bang” was the lead single, that drop also had its instrumental and “Brains Blue” paired with it.

“Roll Up” does the same thing, as Blu and Shafiq have given us “Very Amazing” too. The first of the two is very chill with excellent rhymes from Blu over a bassy beat. “Very Amazing” is a different vibe, as the instrumental is more scattered and unorthodox. Be sure to check out the tracks above.

Only for them to call later and say they couldn’t do IT because of their sponsors, like RUFFLES,” Brown wrote on his Instagram Story at the time. “At this point I’m sick of people bothering me and I’m tired of living in the f—ing past.” He also shared a screenshot of an email appearing to invite him to the game. “I POSTED THE EMAILS SO YALL COULD SEE. The NBA still was tryna get me to come and sit court side… NOT F—ING HAPPENING,” Brown said. Ruffles denied having any say in who participated in the event.
