Bryson Tiller Adds A Dose Of Support To Ty Dolla Sign And Jhene Aiko’s ‘By Yourself’

by

In case you’ve been under a rock for the past few months, Bryson Tiller made his return to the music world and he hasn’t let his foot off the gas since he reappeared. His latest contribution comes in the form of a new remix to Ty Dolla Sign and Jhene Aiko’s “By Yourself” track. On the updated take, Bryson delivers an extra dose of support towards a woman in his life whose independence he admires.

At the end of last month, Bryson arrived with a deluxe reissue of his third album, Anniversary. The re-release saw five additions to the album and a feature from Big Sean, who appeared on “Still Yours” and joined Drake (“Outta Time“) as the only guest acts on the project. The Lousiville singer has also been active on the music video side of things. Since he released Anniversary last October, fans have received visuals for “Always Forever,” “Sorrows,” and “Like Clockwork.” He also updated his supporters on his next body of work, Serenity, which is set to be a versatile three-volume project.

The “Be Yourself” remix is the second remix of a Featuring Ty Dolla Sign that has dropped since the album was released. He previously called on YG, J Balvin, and Tyga to join him and Post Malone for a multilingual update to “Spicy.” Prior to that, Ty joined Tiesto for “The Business, Pt. II” and covered Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit.”

Listen to the remix in the video above.

Anniversary (Deluxe) is out now via RCA. Get it here.

Ty Dolla Sign is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Boosie Badazz Taps DaBaby For Hard-Hitting Single “Period”

by

Kicking off your early Friday (March 19) morning with a little pressure are Boosie Badazz and DaBaby. These two aren’t strangers to collaborating together; they previously shared space years ago on DaBaby’s “Baby Jesus” when he was first starting out, and the North Carolina rapper shared that he dished out $15K for the feature. It helped launch DaBaby’s career to what it is today, and now they return with their hard-hitting single, “Period.”

It seems that Boosie has been waiting on the perfect opportunity to release the track because he first spoke about it with VladTV in April 2020. “We just did a record, I’m waiting on getting it cleared,” Boosie said at the time. “I’m gonna put it on my GOAT Talk 3, [it’s] called ‘Period,’ so shout out to DaBaby.” The song has finally arrived, so stream “Period” and let us know your thoughts on Boosie Badazz and DaBaby’s latest collaboration.

Quotable Lyrics

I make you walk it out, walk it out, walk it out
Yeah, bought what I’m talkin’ ’bout
Big mouth, shock collar, two Rottweilers like Nino
Runnin’ up hundreds and cash (Woo), she tryin’ to f*ck on a rat
Please tell your p*ssy-ass baby daddy, be cool, girl ‘fore I get on his ass

Mystikal Praises NBA YoungBoy, Gives Advice About Legal Troubles

by

Many rappers have faced setbacks, opposition, or turmoil, and Mystikal has endured all three. From finding his sister murdered in their home to serving six years in prison to being cleared of rape charges, all the while managing a career that has earned him classic hits, Mystikal has seen it all. He recently sat down for an interview with VladTV where he detailed his experiences, and during one portion of the chat, the rapper spoke about some of his favorite artists. He named Lil Wayne, Boosie Badazz, and several others before sharing what new generation of rappers have caught his ear—and he dropped some advice, as well.

“[NBA YoungBoy is] my favorite right now, him and Lil Baby and DaBaby,” said Mystikal. While discussing YoungBoy’s continuous run-ins with the law, Mystikal added that it “goes hand in hand.” He stated, “YoungBoy, just always remember dude, you can always take refuge and take shelter in your music. That’s what he does. That why when it come out, that’s why we feel his music like that because he wear it on his sleeve.”

Aside from catching heat from fans for allegedly dodging studio time with Lil Baby and J. Cole (separately), NBA YoungBoy has been reportedly dealing with legal issues. Last month, it was reported that the rapper was being investigated by federal authorities and in October 2020 he was accused of assault. One month prior, the rapper was reportedly arrested while shooting a music video. Check out the clip from Mystikal’s interview below.

Gillie Da Kid Explains Why No One Cares If Drake Has Ghostwriters

by

One of the many great debates in the Hip Hop world is whether or not an artist can be considered a GOAT if they don’t write their own rhymes in their entirety. Rap and Hip Hop are about collaborations, but among certain circles, if a rapper leans on ghostwriters or other artists to help write their rhymes, it seems to negate the validity of their “best in the game” status. This issue has been argued for decades and conversations continue globally, and the topic landed in The Breakfast Club studio as Gillie Da Kid and Wallo were asked to weigh in.

“Let me just tell you something, man. Music is about going in the studio, having fun, expressing yourself. Sometimes it’s one person in there, sometimes it’s three persons in there. Sometimes it’s five people,” said Gillie. Wallo added that many of our favorite tracks had multiple writers to help pen the hit. 

“Beyoncé don’t write all her music. Rihanna don’t write all her music,” said Gillie. Wallo chimed in to say that other genres of music don’t focus on who-writes-what as much as Rap and Hip Hop. Gillie added, “Guess who don’t care that Drake ain’t write that music? The woman that’s gone suck his d*ck at the end of the night.” Check out the clip of the discussion below and let us know your thoughts.

Rackboy Cam Awarded $1.7 Million In Lawuit Over YFN Lucci, PnB Rock Hit

by

A 2017 hit was at the center of a lawsuit. YFN Lucci’s “Everyday We Lit” featuring PnB Rock was a charting success for both rappers, but Rackboy Cam heard the single, he thought it sounded a tad familiar. According to the rapper, he’s previously released his song “Everything Be Lit,” and he told a court that he believed Lucci and Rock copied his track. According to NJ.com, Rackboy added that he had even met with the two rappers, so in 2018, he called up his lawyer and filed a copyright infringement lawsuit.

Also named in the lawsuit was “producer June ‘The Jenius’ James and Think It’s a Game Records, YFN Lucci’s Atlanta-based label,” states the outlet. It’s reported that neither PnB Rock nor James responded to the lawsuit. Back in 2019, Lucci reportedly settled out of court on behalf of himself and his label, but earlier this month, a judgment was handed down in favor of Rackboy Cam against Lucci’s collaborators.

Cam was awarded $1,447,720—it was broken down as “50% of PnB Rock and 50% of James’ writer’s royalties in perpetuity from the original song as well as a remix featuring Lil Yachty and Wiz Khalifa. The rapper also receives prejudgment interest at 6.25% per year for the nearly three-year period since the lawsuit was filed on March 13, 2018, and $4,576.82 in out-of-pocket legal costs, bringing the total to more than $1.7 million.”

The amount Rackboy Cam received from Lucci in his settlement hasn’t been shared. “I feel like it was pretty fair,” Cam told the outlet. “I’m blessed, I’m satisfied. I feel like this is a big statement for Jersey because I feel like we don’t get the credit.” Over on Instagram, he added, “This has been a very lengthy and tedious process. I’m grateful for the outcome, and I’m thankful it’s all behind me. I’m excited to get back into the studio and continue creating music for my fans.”

“I wish the best for all parties on current and future endeavors.”Check out both tracks below and let us know if you believe RackBoy Cam deserved the cash.
