Lil Tjay Is All About The Dancers On The Bouncy ‘Move’ With Tyga And Saweetie

The last project Lil Tjay delivered came not too long ago with 2020’s State Of Emergency. It was the follow-up to his debut album, True 2 Myself. Now, to begin the second quarter of 2021, Tjay has emerged with his sophomore album, Destined 2 Win.

One of the eye-catching songs on the project is a collaboration between him, Tyga, and Saweetie for a track titled, “Move.” The bouncy effort sees the Bronx rapper lusting over hypnotizing dancers that stand before him. Tyga and Saweetie, who have both made a career out of songs that ideal for strip club personnel, join Tjay to echo similar sentiments.

Destined 2 Win arrives with features from 6lack, Polo G, Five Foreign, Toosii, Offset, and Moneybagg Yo. The project received a great promotional boost thanks to Tjay’s “Calling My Phone” single with 6lack as it debuted on No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the highest-charting single for both acts.

He kept up the momentum with “Headshot” and “Born 2 Be Great,” using the latter track to announce the new album. The full-length also comes after the rapper was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana, weapons, grand larceny to close out 2020.

Listen to “Move” in the video above.

Blxst Enjoys A Campus Romance In His ‘Chosen’ Video With Tyga And Ty Dolla Sign

Blxst‘s new video for “Chosen” from the deluxe version of his No Love Lost EP takes inspiration from historically Black colleges and universities, with a heavy emphasis on fraternity life as displayed in movies like Spike Lee’s School Daze. Blxst plays the big man on campus, bumping into his romantic lead early in the video and spending time with her on the yard and at a house party.

The song’s featured artists, Tyga and Ty Dolla Sign, also appear as fellow members of Blxst’s frat, throwing a parking lot party and staging a performance backed by cheerleaders on the football field. Meanwhile, the cheerleaders put on a private twerk show of their own in the locker room.

The “Chosen” video follows “Got It All” with Dom Kennedy as the latest visual releases from No Love Lost, while the LA-based rapper and singer followed-up the project with a two-song double single release, Just For Clarity, earlier this month. That single included appearances from the recently released Drakeo The Ruler and indie rap evangelist Russ.
