ScHoolboy Q Announces Another Tour For “Blue Lips” Along With An Exciting Twist

by

After five long years of waiting, ScHoolboy Q came back with a fresh mindset and creative ideas for his next project. Following the announcement of BLUE LIPS, it quickly became a highly anticipated album to check out. The results were highly satisfactory and despite a ton of fabulous records since its release in March, it’s remained an AOTY contender. Sadly, the GRAMMYs did it no justice, leaving it out of the Best Rap Album category. But most fans are going to appreciate it anyway, and they should. It’s Q’s most personal, grown-up, and ambitious record to date with some of the best beat switches all year as well.

Just a few months later, the Oxymoron MC took his sixth studio effort on a unique tour called, Blue Lips Weekends. From the weekends beginning on July 18 through August 11, ScHoolboy Q hit up cities like Chicago, Dallas, Seattle, and more for 11 dates. The rare and shorter format wound up to be a success for the California rapper because he’s doing something similar again. According to Pitchfork, ScHoolboy Q is heading back on tour starting on January 23 in Oakland.

This time, though, there’s a different twist or two. Instead of staying state side, the “THank god 4 me” artist is going to take a couple of weeks off in between. That will allow him to recuperate for the international performances which will see him head to Germany, France, Netherlands, and England. Blue Lips! Got New Songs… Tour will span nine dates in total and based on the name of it, that might be the second special thing with this trek.

“Blue lips…new songs and new sHows,” Q wrote. “New songs” could potentially mean we get some bonus tracks from this era of ScHoolboy Q. Of course, that then leads to a possible deluxe of BLUE LIPS which we could receive any time before, in the middle, or after the tour. This is all speculation, but it is certainly an exciting thing to think about.

Tyler, The Creator Announces “Chromakopia: The World Tour” Guest Starring Lil Yachty & Paris Texas

by

Tyler, The Creator, in just a week, has one of the most anticipated releases of the year. On his YouTube page, he dropped an album announcement trailer/track called “ST. CHROMA.” After about a minute and 20 seconds elapsed, the title of the project would be revealed. CHROMAKOPIA will be the California creative’s eighth studio LP, and it will be out everywhere next Monday, October 28. He’s given us one full single from it called “Noid” which brought some serious experimentation with a Zambian rock sample. The themes about fame and being terrified of it to some degree are heavily present and it will be interesting to see where he takes the rest of the album. For now, though, Tyler, The Creator has some more exciting news to share.

Just moments ago, the eclectic multi-talent announced the CHROMAKOPIA: THE WORLD TOUR. It’s a massive undertaking, as it will kick off on February 4 in Minnesota and end on September 4 in Perth. Opening acts will include Lil Yachty and experimental rap duo Paris Texas. There are some rumors and speculation going around that they will both be on the project, so fingers crossed.

As for ticket information, here’s what we know. General on-sale will start on November 1 at 10 a.m. local time. American Express customers, though, are going to have multiple benefits and they are as follows. According to the press release, they will have access to purchase exclusive merch at select venues across the tour. AMEX sales will also start earlier than the general on-sale. That will begin on October 29 with the full breakdown available here. Right now, the website activity is so heavy that there is currently a wait time at the time of writing. If that tells you anything it’s that fans are ecstatic for Tyler’s return.

What are your thoughts on Tyler, The Creator’s announcement of the CHROMAKOPA: THE WORLD TOUR? Do you think the opening acts are going to be features on the album? Do you plan on attending any of the tour stops? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

9lives Produces An Ethereal Jersey Club Piece With “My Way” Featuring Rico Nasty & Kanii

by

9lives, one of the more popular underground producers going today, has a new breakup single out this weekend called “my way.” It features the ever so talented and versatile Rico Nasty, as well as frequent collaborator of the New Zealand native, Kanii. The 20-year-old really likes what he has here with “my way,” especially when it comes to Ms. Nasty’s portions. “Rico killed her verse and hook. It feels to me that she’s talking about her ex, and that nothing is going to get in her way of moving on. I think that it’s empowering for anyone who’s going through something right now.” This is 9lives’ latest single, as it follows up on his collaboration with Kanii and Anycia on “I DID IT” back in August.

The song is catchy thanks to both of his guest’s melodies, but also because of the beat. Here, 9lives lays down a Jersey club instrumental that’s tender and light on its feet. That quality is brought out thanks to its softer drum patterns and ethereal background. The layers continue from there, though. 9lives includes synths that sound like ones from Minecraft or some other indie sandbox game. Overall, he has been dropping a lot lately, so there is some hope that an album is imminent. Nothing has been announced yet though, so we are just going to have to wait and see. But he does have a tour coming up. According to a press release, he will be starting his trek in Hamburg, Germany on November 30. Kanii is joining 9lives and the #BLUE tour will run through December 17.

Snoop Dogg Hints At 2025 Tour To Support New “Missionary” Album With Dr Dre

by

Snoop Dogg will reunite with Dr. Dre for their next collaborative album Missionary, which doesn’t have a release date yet. They’ve indicated that they want to drop it in November to commemorate the anniversary of their last full-length team-up, 1993’s Doggystyle. But a new Forbes report published Sunday (September 29) also added another exciting possibility to this reunion. Moreover, the writer mentioned “talk of a tour as early as next year,” although this wasn’t directly attributed to Tha Doggfather. As such, maybe it’s just wishful thinking or a misplaced interpretation, but it seems unlikely that they would drop this album without taking it on the road.

“Music is my foundation. That’s the root of who I am, so I can never run away from that,” Snoop Dogg expressed to the publication. He first announced Missionary back in 2022 on Stephen A. Smith’s Know Mercy podcast. “You’re the first one to hear this: me and Dr. Dre have been working on an album for the past two months,” the Long Beach legend revealed. “It’s produced by Dr. Dre, it’s our 30th anniversary to Doggystyle. And the name of the album is Missionary.” While it didn’t line up with the 30th anniversary, 31 isn’t so bad!

“As soon as we finish this I have to go downstairs and start mixing,” Dr. Dre told Entertainment Tonight last month concerning his upcoming album with Snoop Dogg. “I wanted 14 songs, Snoop wants 16, so we have that thing happening. I’m on song number 11 as far as the mixes go. I have to be done and delivered by September 1st to have a November release.” We never got an update on whether he handed the project in or not…

“I actually did a couple of songs, I’m not sure if one of them’s going to make it or not,” Dr. Dre continued his revelations about Snoop Dogg’s Missionary. “I produced the entire album. But vocally, I think, only one of them is going to make it. There’s a song, we have Sting on the song. Man, it’s an amazing roster of artists that’s on this album. I shouldn’t have revealed that, to be honest.”

Jean Dawson Preps For New Album With Late-Night Cruiser “Houston”

by

Jean Dawson has been thoroughly impressive for a lot of reasons. Out of all the qualities that he possesses, you could easily argue that his versatility is his greatest asset. His ability to hop around different genres without a surface-level approach is quite remarkable. It adds some wonder and mystery to what he’s going to present on a new single or project. Speaking of which, the 28-year-old multi-talent is working toward releasing the latter as we speak. In mid-July, he posted a moody portrait of himself onto IG with a vague “💽*” caption. Fans were immediately begging for an album in the comments, and not too long after, their wishes would become reality. About a month later, Jean would go on to announce that, along with a tour. “Id like to formally announce “𝒢𝓁𝒾𝓂𝓂𝑒𝓇 𝒪𝒻 𝒢𝑜𝒹” album 3 title and North American tour dates. Can’t wait to see you <33”.

Then, just four days after the reveal (August 16), he dropped the now lead single “Die For Me” which featured Lil Yachty. Now, this weekend, Jean Dawson is back with its second in “Houston”. The previous track was more of a hip-hop/R&B/alternative sounding cut. But in typical Dawson fashion, the sounds are much different. “Houston” sees him take on an 80s synth-pop atmosphere and it sounds heavenly. It’s got that late-night drive vibe, and the lyrical content definitely has some allusions to God. He cleverly uses the phrase “Houston we have a problem” and applies it to him taking off into space to find peace with the big guy above.

Rod Wave Gears Up For New Tour & Album With “Passport Junkie”

by

Just yesterday (September 15), Rod Wave’s fifth studio album Nostalgia hit streaming platforms. That project went on to serve the Florida native well as it did spend two weeks atop the Billboard Hot 200. The crooner and rapper definitely has a devoted cult following and it’s safe to say that they are ready for more music already. Well, they are going to be getting their wish soon because the “Heart On Ice” talent is getting ready to drop LP number six. To build anticipation, Rod Wave is here with “Passport Junkie”.

This is potentially the fourth promotional track that will land on Last Lap, as he did drop a newer version of “Numb” in addition to “Lonely”. There’s also his dream collaboration with Drake that was recently previewed on his social media that is expected to make its way onto the record. But Rod Wave isn’t stopping there. He also announced self-titled tour very recently. According to a press release, the 26-year-old artist will be hitting most of the major arenas across the United States. It will start in Arizona on October 19 and go through December 18 and end off near his hometown of St. Petersburg in Fort Lauderdale. Stream “Passport Junkie” and the watch the music video below.

Wale Returns With Brief But Intriguing “Ghetto Speak” & “Mission Statement” Singles

by

Wale has kind of been in the dark for a little bit now, but he seems to be ramping up production again with this new “Ghetto Speak” two-pack. This comes on the heels of his Every Blue Moon Tour announcement from a few weeks ago. It’s commemorating the release of his debut album, Attention Deficit, which is now over 15 years old already. The Every Blue Moon trek is going to be quite the journey across the U.S. despite it not being solely for a new release. Wale will begin on September 19 in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Then, he will wrap things up on November 7 in Birmingham, AL. However, noticed how we said “not solely”. There is a great chance that the D.C. talent will promote some new tracks from his ninth album that’s in the works.

It’s possible that it could be named after the tour, and it would be an aptly titled LP given his recent track record. We don’t have a release date yet, but we did receive a snippet of song in the trailer announcement for the tour. Furthering the hype are these two new songs from Wale, “Ghetto Speak” and “Mission Statement”. Both cuts are extremely short with them averaging out to be a minute and a half apiece. However, they do present some descriptive and introspective lyricism, as well as solid beats. “Ghetto Speak” is rougher around the edges with dirty soul vibe. His bars reflect the good and the bad about his hometown. “Mission Statement”, more cleanly produced by T-Minus, sounds more upbeat on the surface, but it has a serious tone like the first. There are great ideas here and we cannot wait for more to come from Wale.

Nicki Minaj Pens Heartfelt Message To The Barbz Ahead Of “Gag City Reloaded” Tour

by

Nicki Minaj has poured a lot into her musical journey. She’s racked up tons of accolades, top-charting singles and projects, as well as having several massive tours under her belt. Speaking of the latter, the Trinidadian rapper and singer is getting ready to tour across the United States once again tonight. It will be the second installment of her Pink Friday 2 World Tour, which quite insane given the fact that she did two legs of the former. This is the Gag City Reloaded trek, and it will accompany the forthcoming deluxe of the same name that’s coming September 13.

It will run through October 11 and will end in Queens, New York. With so much support shown from her fans, Nicki wanted to show them appreciation with one of her trademark messages. “Dear Barbz,” she begins. “Today is the day. The final installment of the #PinkFriday2 era begins today. Thank you for your continued love & support… for wishing my team & me, well. Thank you for being the best humans on earth.” She continues, “This is my first time doing 2 headline tours in one calendar year- (as #PapaBear’s mama @ that)… So I’d be lying if I said it’s been “easy”. I just keep reminding myself that one thing I learned & promised myself I’d never ever forget the last time I saw you, is that no matter how I feel when I walk ON stage, I feel a million times better when I walk off.

Kehlani Delivers Breezy & Summery R&B Vibes For “While We Wait 2”

by

Kehlani has their die-hard fans jumping for joy this week because they now have While We Wait 2. If this title looks familiar to those not totally in the know, it’s because they have While We Wait in their discography. That was their third mixtape, and it hit DSPs back in 2019. Kehlani didn’t have a major rollout for this second project of 2024, as they hinted at it on their Instagram just about a week ago. There are actually a couple of reasons as to why this wasn’t being teased that long.

For starters, Kehlani delivered their fourth album CRASH back in late June. Secondly, the alternative R&B veteran announced the North American leg of their CRASH World Tour about five weeks prior to WWW2. It’s also worth mentioning they will be hitting the road on September 4. Finally, Kehlani said themselves that this project was completed in a blistering time frame. In a recent Instagram post they wrote, “We made this tape in my back house in two weeks with all people I really dearly love… It was a breezy process and nobody thought hard. Just some feelings in 90 degree weather.” You can definitely hear that in the performances and instrumentals in a good way. Kehlani sounds carefree and chill on this mixtape, making this just as blissful for the listener.

OMB Peezy Begins Roll Out For Upcoming Mixtape With “Hallways To Highways Produced By Will-A-Fool

by

OMB Peezy is gearing up for the release of his upcoming mixtape by presenting its lead single, “Hallways To Highways”. The 27-year-old rapper and singer from Mobile, Alabama will be dropping STILL TOO DEEP sometime in September, according to a press release. Sadly, the exact date is unknown at the time of writing. But with August winding down (already), we should have that piece to the puzzle in the next couple of weeks, hopefully. This project will follow-up on two LPs from 2023, including Le’Paris and Top Kill. The latter of them was a collaborative offering between Peezy and Lil Joc. For “Hallways To Highways”, OMB Peezy is recruiting a platinum artist to tag team this melodic track.

That guest is producer Will-A-Fool. He has worked with plenty of big-ticket rappers throughout his time in the industry, so he’s bringing a lot of experience to the table. Those previous collaborators include Future, Lil Durk, K CAMP, Kevin Gates, YFN Lucci, Rod Wave, and more. His biggest hit he’s probably every assisted was K CAMP’s “Cut Her Off”. Besides Will-A-Fool being able to make beats for these artists, it should be noted that the mixture here is more important. Peezy, like Rod and Lucci, love to sing just as much they like to rap. So, Peezy grabbing Will for this more easy-going, yet personal record makes a lot of sense. Specifically, Peezy talks about his past, friends and family, but he expresses that he doesn’t want to forget them while he’s on the “highways” to fame. You can stream the song with the music video link below to hear what this duo is bringing to the table.
