Soulja Boy is only a week and some change removed from the release of his latest projectt Big Draco. Unfortunately, it didn’t make a massive splash on the Billboard 200 as he likely intended. He’s still on the move, keeping a steady stream of music on deck with another project likely in the cut. For the timebeing, he’s preparing for the upcoming release of Big Draco (Deluxe) which will likely be due out in the weeks to come. No word on any of the features but some of the singles he’s recently released are quite promising.

On Sunday, the rapper returned with an R&B-infused jam titled, “Toxic.” Diving into his loverboy bag, the rapper details a relationship that’s run its course yet still haunts him regularly. Tough times for Draco.

Check the song below.

Quotable Lyrics
I gotta be the realest n***a you ever seen
I gotta be the streetest n***a with this M-16
I got the money, I got the power, I’m havin’ everything
I got this choppa, I got this choppa, I’ll clear the whole scene

We don’t often hear Asian Doll getting emotional in her music, but on what would have been her ex-boyfriend King Von’s twenty-seventh birthday today, she’s opening up to her fans with a heartfelt new single called “Don’t Let Me Go.”

The track appears to be the first release from Asian’s upcoming album release. It serves as a love letter to the late King Von, with whom she shared a strong love. “Don’t let me go baby, I mean this shit for real/I’ma give you all of me this time, I hope you feel,” she raps in the chorus.

In her first verse, she references all the drama surrounding Von’s death, her immediate reaction to his passing on social media, how she’s been perceived by fans during her grieving process, and much more. Listen to the new song below and let us know what you think.

Long Live King Von.

Quotable Lyrics:

Don’t know what more to do, I got your kids right here
They telling lies on us, that shit gon’ get ’em killed
I know you know I’m out here deciding life still
When it come down to it baby, I’m gon’ grab the wheel
Why the fuck I’ma topic? You n***as a problem
Go slide if you ’bout it, no talking, you wilding
I did everything and it worked, so we party
My n***a he knew right where my heart is

DDG has returned with his latest single.

Dropping it off as an impromptu release on Sunday, the Michigan-rapper reverts this melodic delivery to hop on “Lusted,” which finds him detailing the pain of heartbreak. The piano-driven effort is pieced together by a host of producers that include TreOnTheBeat as DDG floats in vulnerability.

It marks his first official release since the arrival of his and OG Parker’s joint Die 4 Respect album that arrived last June. The effort hosted his “Moonwalking in Calabasas” hit and produced new favorites like the Lil Yachty-assisted “Rule #1” and “Hood Melody,” featuring NBA YoungBoy. The project peaked at No. 61 on the charts while “Moonwalking” has since gone Platinum.

Dig into “Lusted” below.

Quotable Lyrics
Don’t trust nothin’, they betrayed me, I hate that
You was zoomin’, I don’t, I state straight facts
All that cash spent on you, I’m gon’ make back
Got my mind movin’ fast like a race track

DJ Swamp Izzo has been hustling hard over the years which has now led to his signing with Cash Money records. To commemorate the deal, Swamp Izzo unveiled his brand new single, “3 Cell Phones” with Future. Backed by muddy production, Future sounds like he’s in his original form, detailing his relationship with drugs and women in a nonchalant manner.

“Izzo’s been a part of our family for a long time now,” Birdman said of the signing. I’ve always watched how he moved and what he did. He’s put so many major plays in motion throughout Atlanta and hip-hop as a whole. He’s also an incredible DJ, performer, and artist. Everybody’s about to get to know him in a big way this year.”

With the backing of Birdman and Slim, DJ Swamp Izzo is bound to do some incredible things in the future.

Choppa, card bitch, that’s for damn sure
Love the fuckin’ top shit, that’s for damn sure (Woo)
Two chicks while I spit, that’s for damn sure
Make a leg lock when I hit, that’s for damn sure

Soulja Boy’s hustle is truly unmatched. While other rappers are sleeping, he’s likely plotting on his next move, whether it’s his next release or another move in the world of tech. It’s been a little over a week since the rapper unveiled his latest project, Big Draco which serves as his first release on a major label in a few years. Unfortunately, the album’s release felt a bit lackluster but still, Draco is preparing to drop the deluxe edition soon.

Despite recently dropping an album, Soulja Boy’s still flooding his YouTube page with new releases. This morning, he unveiled his latest single, “Rockstar,” a melodic, auto-tune-laden production that finds Soulja Boy delivering more braggadocious bars about his lavish lifestyle. There’s certainly a Playboi Carti influence that lingers on the production but nonetheless, Draco is going hard.

Peep the new record from Soulja Boy below.

Quotable Lyrics
I’m a rockstar
Orgy with 10 bitches, I’m a rockstar
Lambo with the switches, I’m a rockstar
Shoot it ’til it’s empty, I’m a rockstar

Erica Banks had 2021 ablaze with the release of “Buss It.” The song became an international smash, thanks to the power of TikTok, and the subsequent remix featuring Travis Scott. However, there’s still more work to be done and Banks isn’t slowing down by any means. Just the other day, she declared herself the top female MC in the game right now. That might seem like a stretch to most but she’s putting her money where her mouth is everytime she drops.

This week, Erica Banks emerged with a remix to DaBaby’s hit single, “Ball If I Want To.” The latest E-Mix finds Banks tackling the beat with dominance while popping her shit.

Hmm, yeah I’mma ball in this hoe

Coming out of Atlanta, Derez De’Shon has always impressed fans with his ability to spit bars and offer up some powerful melodies that will have you focused on every single word he says. In a world where artists like Morray and Rod Wave are gaining massive steam, there is no denying that De’Shon’s style is their inspiration. A perfect example of this is found on the new track “In My Feelings” where De’Shon showcases the power of his voice all while offering incredible storytelling.

Throughout the track, we get a luscious instrumental that helps showcase just how powerful the track really is. From there, De’Shon offers a powerful chorus and an even more poignant verse about his life, the things he has been through, and the pain that has come with it all. It’s yet another dope effort from the artist, and you can check it out, below.

Quotable Lyrics:

Pain turned a n***a to a beast and I embraced it,
Days I ain’t eat make me hungry I can taste it,
All them days I was weak wanna give up
I couldn’t take it but I couldn’t do it looking in my children faces

The fascinating story of Bumpy Johnson and his rise as a leading drug trafficker in America has been explored in-depth on Epix’s Godfather Of Harlem. The show’s been a success so far with the second half of the second season set to arrive in the near future. Aside from Forest Whittaker’s excellent portrayal of Johnson, it’s been the music that’s accompanied the show that’s received equally rave reviews. Swizz Beatz has been responsible for the soundtrack and this week, he pulled up with another new banger. This time, he locked in with BIA, who is fresh off of the success of the Nicki Minaj-assisted “Whole Lotta Money (Remix),” along with YG and Giggs for their brand new collaboration, “Waiting On Me.”

Package, ship it, and put the money in the safe
If they kill me, fuck it, put the money in my grave
Hold it down, make sure the operation run the same
Just never mention the gang, gang, gang
