New Music: Migos “Motor Sport” featuring Cardi B x Nicki Minaj

What’s beef? Especially when it comes to Cardi B and Nicki Minaj after hearing Migos new track “Motor Sport”. It’s safe to say the devil was proven to be a liar yet again when they decided to collaborate in spite of the countless beef rumors. “Motor Sport” will appear on Migos new album “Culture II” the follow up to “Culture”, which debuted at number 1 February 2017. In the meantime, both Nicki and Cardi B have new albums in the works. Cardi is set to release her new album in November and Nicki has yet to release details. Who went harder… Nicki or Cardi B? Check out the track below.

New Music Monday: 112 ‘Both of Us’ featuring Jagged Edge

We’re now at the end of cuffing season tryouts set to begin the pre-season in exactly one week. While some of us want to find that one, a great majority of us want to have our cake and eat it too. 112 and Jagged Edge is giving us just that with their new track “Both of Us”.  The 90s groups are throwing us back to when we could not only hear a great track, but feel amazing chemistry in them. In a recent interview with 105.1’s The Breakfast Club, 112 told the story of the beef behind the music with Jagged Edge and where that puts both R&B groups now. They’ve been discussing the  possibility of a joint tour which isn’t far off when you think about with older R&B acts like Xscape and Monica joining forces creating super tours. The new album, Q.Mike.Slim.Daron is slated for release in 4 days, on October 27 and is currently available for pre-order HERE. You here for it?

It seems that Lil Uzi Vert’s creative juices are flowing as he dropped 4 new tracks yesterday. We can probably credit his opening for The Weeknd’s European Tour ‘StarBoy Legend of the Fall’. The tour kicked off on February 17 and runs until July 22. It seems that the tour will result in an album for Lil Uzi at the rate he’s dropping tracks. Out of the 4 tracks my favorite is ‘Boring Shit’. Take a listen to all 4 tracks below:

New Music Monday: Kehlani – Table featuring Little Simz + Bryson Tiller – Let Me Explain

Ya’ll know I am some kind of happy when I find new music and this weekend I struck gold! Kehlani and Bryson Tiller blessed us with 2 new tracks. You definitely have to go through something to get to something and Kehlani has proved that with her most recent tracks “CRZY” and “Distraction”.

New Artist: H.E.R…..Who is she though?

For this Monday’s Music Monday, I found a new songstress that caught my ear. I was listening to Apple Music Radio, the R&B station, and bumped into a song titled ‘Losing’ and I couldn’t help, but stop and listen. I love a beautiful voice, but it’s always better with beautifully written lyrics. She opened with,“My ambition is attractive/My aggression isn’t passive/I promise with you/The butterflies in my stomach are active”, and immediately as a young woman I was able to relate. I then decided to listen to her entire EP and I loved it. Of course, you look at the album cover and can’t help but wonder…who is she? That’s when I put my Google skills to work. First, I Googled ‘H.E.R.‘ and an old movie popped up. Than I decided to add ‘Vol.1‘ and there it was. But as I read some of the articles they had no image to attach to the artist. It was like she mysteriously dropped an EP without revealing her actual identity. When google didn’t give me what I wanted …
