G Herbo Is Ready For Battle On “Really Like That”

by

It’s been some time since we’ve received a new release from G Herbo, aside from his features, and on Friday (March 5), the world was blessed with two new tracks. The Chicago rapper has been busy balancing his personal and professional life as he faces legal troubles and a growing family. We’ve previously reported on the charges against Herbo in connection to an alleged fraud case, and while his attorneys attempt to keep him out of jail, Herbo has been preparing to welcome his child with fiancée Taina Williams.

The rapper enthusiastically posted about his two singles on Instagram—”Break Yoself” and “Really Like That”—by writing, “I AINT DROP SH*T SINCE I DROPPED MY ALBUM. FEELS LIKE A GOOD TIME TO GET BACK TO IT.” We’re highlighting “Really Like That” first, and it’s clear that Herbo is ready for a productive and game-changing 2021. Stream “Really Like That” and let us know what you think about G Herbo’s latest.

Quotable Lyrics

That’s why I walk like this, talk like that
Iced out all my n*ggas, b*tch, ’cause I’m a boss like that (Swerve)
Puttin’ miles on my foreign, f*ck up my exhaust like that (Just like that)
Overkill ’em why you had to nail him to the cross like that (Dang)

Denzel Curry & Kenny Beats Return With Remix Album “Unlocked 1.5”

by

They’ve put a new spin on their critically-acclaimed project and it’s an upgrade that fans have already been enjoying. In February 2020, Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats shared their collaborative project Unlocked, and immediately, the visual concept partnered with an immaculate production was praised near and far. The collaboration between the Florida emcee and accomplished producer is a pairing the Hip Hop needs, and they’ve returned for a remix album where you’ll find the original tracklist has been chopped and screwed.

Deluxe albums are all the rage and often, we find artists adding a few new unreleased tracks to the updated album, but we don’t regularly find artists fully and completely remixing their entire records. Both Unlocked and Unlocked 1.5 are deserving of praise, and features on this new version include production credits from Charlie Heat, Jay Versace, GODMODE 950, The Alchemist, and Georgia Anne Muldrow. You’ll also find additional vocals from Kenny Mason, Joey Bada$$, Arlo Parks, and Benny The Butcher.

Stream Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats’s Unlocked 1.5 and let us know what you think.

Drake Delivers “Scary Hours 2” 3-Pack Ahead Of “Certified Lover Boy”

by

If the rumors are to be believed, Certified Lover Boy is on the way. Akademiks has given us a few updates about Drake’s highly-anticipated, forthcoming album with the news that Drizzy has revealed CLB will hit streaming services sometime in April. There was gossip about Drake taking over “all Summer ’21,” but if Akademiks is to be believed, the OVO mogul is about to run the Spring.

To whet his fans’ whistles, Drake returns with a surprise three-pack: Scary Hours 2. It’s said to be an extension of his 2018 EP of the same name and we’re pretty certain that at least one of these songs will creep its way onto the CLB tracklist. We’ve previously received EPs and drop-offs from Drake including his Care Package and Dark Lane Demo Tapes, and we’ll enjoy this one as we twiddle our thumbs in anticipation of CLB. Stream Scary Hours 2 and let us know what you think of Lil Baby and Rick Ross’s appearance on the record.

Tracklist

1. What’s Next
2. Wants and Needs ft. Lil Baby
3. Lemon Pepper Freestyle ft. Rick Ross

Kodak Black Mushes Piece Of Cake In Son’s Face & People Are Upset

by

It was all about family fun for Kodak Black who was recently enjoying time with his kids. The rapper has been making the most of his first months out of prison, even reportedly becoming engaged to rapper Mellow Rackz and possibly even expecting a child. We’ve watched as Kodak has partied for the Super Bowl and collaborated with Lil Yachty, but the rapper showed just how much of a family man he is in a recent video clip that has gone viral. In it, Kodak is at a party for his son, but it’s the cake-cutting moment that has given some viewers pause.

The video shows Kodak surrounded by kids as he cuts what looks to be a birthday cake. Things start off quite normal until the rapper decides to sneak attack the little boy by mushing a slice of cake in his face. Kodak laughs hysterically as the boy cries, and soon others are finding their faces full of cake, as well. Many people are laughing and having a good time as the kids patiently wait for their true piece of cake.

The jovial moment was shared online as a funny bit from the event, but some people have taken issue with the playful exchange because they believe the rapper used too much force. Check out the video and a few reactions below. Are people overreacting?

Drake Is Bringing Back OVO Sound Radio On A Brand New 24-Hour SiriusXM Station

by
Drake

In 2016 and 2017, Drake dropped his Views and More Life albums respectively and a big part of the projects’ rollout, as well as the debut of fellow OVO artists and different acts from across the music world, was thanks to the Toronto rapper’s OVO Sound Radio show on Apple Music.

From the show’s start in the summer of 2015 to its eventual end in 2018, a number of artists would debut new music on the platform including Drake’s “Hotline Bling” and “One Dance.” Many even credit a 2016 set on the platform as the first time they heard Ella Mai’s music. Well, nearly three years after OVO Sound Radio stopped airing regular episodes, Drake announced that it would be making a return on Thursday night.

The rapper shared the news in a rare post on Twitter. “Going live tonight at 10:30pm EST with the return of OVO Sound Radio and the launch of our 24 hour station SOUND 42 a new experience on @SIRIUSXM” he said. A notable aspect of the announcement is that the radio show was moved from Apple Music to SiriusXM. It’s unclear why he opted to switch platforms but after nearly three years away from the radio show, Drake may have just felt like a change was in order.

The radio show’s launch arrives hours before the release of Scary Hours 2, his upcoming project that looks to hold fans over until the release of his sixth album, Certified Lover Boy.

Oprah Winfrey Didn’t Know Eddie Murphy Portrayed Multiple Characters In “Coming 2 America”

by

We’ve seen Eddie Murphy tackle multiple roles in a single film, but one of his earliest portrayals of various characters in a movie came courtesy of Coming to America. Long before The Nutty Professor, Murphy played the role of Prince Hakeem and the ornery old men in the barbershop in the 1988 classic, and the actor revisited his roles while speaking with Jimmy Kimmel recently about the sequel, Coming 2 America. It was common knowledge that Murphy wore a bit of makeup to create the illusion that he was, indeed, someone else, but that fact seemed to fly right over Oprah Winfrey’s head as she reportedly didn’t know those characters were the comedian, as well.

“A lot of people don’t know that’s us in those makeups,” said Murphy. “Last week, I was doing the other interview with Oprah and… I said something about the barbershop, and ‘I’m that Jewish man,’ and she was like, ‘What do you mean, you’re the Jewish man?'”

“I said, ‘Oh yeah, I’m the old Jewish guy in the barbershop.’ She was like, ‘What?'” Murphy shared. “She couldn’t believe it. And she’s seen the original Coming to America and [this sequel] and all this time didn’t know.” Check out Murphy’s interview and a behind-the-scenes clip of Murphy making fun of himself as he gets his makeup done to portray the Jewish character, Saul. When you first watched the film, did you know Murphy played multiple roles? Have you checked out the sequel?
