Do not cross Pooh Shiesty and Gucci Mane. That’s the main message behind their song “Ugly,” which they dropped the video for today. The persistent minor keys and muted percussion highlight a menacing beat from Nile Waves and Doc Playboi, while the duo’s cold-eyed verses stack blocks of rhymes dedicated to conveying one intimidating theme: If you challenge these two Southern trap veterans, “Sh*t get ugly.”
The video is a straightforward affair, with the two rappers aiming guns and lasers at the camera alongside a bevvy of ski-masked models who are just as heavily armed despite being more scantily clad.
The song comes from Pooh’s recently released Shiesty Season mixtape, which introduced the Memphis MC to a wider audience after he signed to Gucci’s new 1017 label in 2020 and featured prominently on the label’s first compilation album Gucci Mane Presents: So Icy Summer. Thanks to those big moves, and singles like “Guard Up” and “Back In Blood,” he’s become a breakout star to watch — and earned enough to be able to buy his mom a new house.

Tee Grizzley switches up his flow on his new song “White Lows Off Designer” — a likely side effect of collaborating with one of the most melodic rappers out, Lil Durk. The woozy-sounding single finds the two Midwestern MCs reflecting on the street code — “Loyalty no option / Please don’t start no drama” — with singsong flows that make the gritty subject matter sound almost beautiful.
Although he hasn’t announced any projects coming out this year, Tee Grizzley appears to be slowly rolling out a new collection of music for 2021. He most recently put out the video for “Late Night Calls,” his first solo single of the year after sharing a pair of singles featuring his little brother Baby Grizzley, “Twin Grizzlies” and “Gave That Back.”
Meanwhile, the resurgent Lil Durk has been a hot commodity for features ever since popping up on Drake’s single “Laugh Now Cry Later.” New Jersey newcomer Coi Leray tapped Durk to add a verse to her breakout single “No More Parties,” R&B revivalist Kehlani put him on her “Love You Too,” and Lil Baby is working on a joint mixtape with him.

Joyce Wrice may be a relative newcomer to the game, but she’s already been making steady waves. Today comes the release of her brand new debut album Overgrown, a project that features guest appearances from Freddie Gibbs, Westside Gunn, Lucky Daye, Kaytranada, and more. Already being widely praised as a refreshing dose of new R&B, Wrice’s new project serves to spotlight her talent and versatility, drawing heavy influence from the enduring soul music of years gone by.
Musically, songs like the intimate “Think About You” and the percussive “You” highlight an ear for lush production, with heavy emphasis on intricate guitar work. Though the project is certainly R&B in essence, it’s clear that Wrice holds an appreciation for some of the game’s top-tier lyricists, having enlisted Westside Gunn and Freddie Gibbs on “Westside Gunn’s Interlude” and single “On One” respectively. For the most part, however, Overgrown is Wrice’s show, and she makes a lasting impression that will likely land her a spot on many-a-radar.
Should you be a) a far of R&B music, and b) looking for a new artist to check out, Joyce Wrice will check out both boxes in one fell swoop. Check out her debut Overgrown now, and share your thoughts in the comments section below.

JuJu Smith-Schuster has had a big decision to make over the last few weeks as he officially became a free agent for the first time in his young career. For the most part, many believed he would be leaving the Pittsburgh Steelers and there were even reports that he was telling his teammates goodbye. This had many fans wondering what he would do next, although today, he made the surprising decision to stay in Pittsburgh.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Smith-Schuster signed a one-year deal with the Steelers and even took less money to stay where he is now. Schefter notes that the Baltimore Ravens tried to sign him to a big deal but in the end, he opted to stay put.
The Ravens are a team in desperate need of help when it comes to wide receivers, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that they were going after the likes of Smith-Schuster. However, JuJu will remain on a team that has committed to Ben Roethlisberger for this upcoming season. The Steelers may not be favored to win the division, but they do have a ton of weapons.

Taylor Gang’s own Fedd The God has come through with a new single, looking to a past classic and flipping Black Rob’s classic “Woah.” Over a modern interpretation of Buckwild’s iconic instrumental, Fedd The God revisits the original flow for the track’s chorus before sliding into the verse. “Shake your ass on my dawg, do your shit like a pro / little red dress trying to teach me her stroll,” he spits, making his intentions abundantly clear.
“Henny in my system, bout to lead the crowd on go, did I fuck his bitch? I told him I don’t even know,” he raps, kicking off his second verse. “It might have been me, but she was fucking with my bro / and why you acting hostile, little boy you gotta go.” Making sure to rep the Khalifa Kush while acknowledging its potency, Fedd The God seems to thrive while inebriated — at the very least, such is the blurry picture “42” ultimately paints. Check it out for yourself now, and sound off if you still keep Black Rob’s “Woah” in steady rotation to this day.
Henny in my system, bout to lead the crowd on go
Did I fuck his bitch? I told him I don’t even know
It might have been me, but she was fucking with my bro
And why you acting hostile, little boy you gotta go
LeBron James is one of the best players to ever get on an NBA court and when he compliments a young player, it’s because he thinks the kid has real potential. LeBron always seems to play well against young players, as it motivates him to remind the young guys that he still runs the NBA. Last night, this was evident as LeBron and the Los Angeles Lakers defeated LaMelo Ball and the Charlotte Hornets by 11 points.
Despite the loss, Ball still put up 26 points in the match and was one of the most impressive players on the floor. After the game, LeBron explained just how impressed he is with Ball and how the rookie has a very bright future.
“I think he’s, ya know, damn good … to be his age,” LeBron said via TMZ. “His speed, his quickness, his ability to make shots at all facets, ya know in the paint, floaters, threes, he has the 3-tier already, and he’s going to only get better. Every game is a learning experience for him. He’s going to get better and better as the season goes on, as his career goes on, and so on and so on.”
LaMelo might not be on the same level as a LeBron just yet although if he continues to develop his game, Melo could be well on his way to superstar status. Not to mention, he’s already making the Hornets a team to watch for every single night.
