New Music: Kendrick Lamar – “The Heart Part 4” [LISTEN]

iv

Guess who’s back.

After posting a cryptic message on his Instagram earlier today, Kendrick Lamar drops “The Heart Part 4.” The Instagram post caused major pandemonium across the Internet, with everyone trying to depict what he was getting at. Turns out it was the fourth installment of “The Heart” series, nearly five years after dropping Part 3.

On “The Heart Part 4,” K. Dot comes out firing graphic, aggressive lyrics sending shots at a rapper, or maybe even the whole industry. He also takes shots at Donald Trump, the Electoral College and praises Jay-Z on his “Hall of Fame” status and induction into the “Songwriters Hall of Fame.”

“My fans can’t wait for me to son your punk ass and crush your whole little s**t / I’ll Big Pun your punk ass, you’re a scared little b**** / “Tiptoe-in around my name n**** ya lame and when I get at you homie don’t you just tell me you was just playin,” raps Kendrick.

Once again the Internet is about to crash with these gut-wrenching lyrics. Everyone is trying to figure out who Kendrick’s deadly shots are for. Drake, J. Cole and Big Sean have been the topics of conversation, being potential targets.

Aside from the roman numeral 4 being the fourth installment of “The Heart” series, it is also official that K. Dot will be dropping his fourth album on April 7th. “You know what time it is / Ante up, this is here forever / Y’all got till April the 7th to get y’all shit together,” raps Kendrick hinting at his fourth studio album.

Listen to “The Heart Part 4” below and tell us who you think the shots on the song were for in the comments below.

Accompanied by a sexy cover art photo, where she displays her ASSets, Iggy Azalea gives fans her new single “Mo Bounce”. Iggy has been teasing (not referring to the cover) the song on her social media for the past week, so it should come at no surprise.

It is produced by The Stereotypes and Far East Movement. Over the bouncy bass the beautiful rapper spits bars about her lifestyle and referring to herself as, ““Little bit of ratchet, little boujee..”

“Mo Bounce” will be on Iggy’s forthcoming ‘Digital Distortion’ album. The album will include features from YG, Jeremih, Lil Uzi Vert and others. A video for “Mo Bounce” will drop this Friday.

Money isn’t an issue for the Migos. The Atlanta trio just wants to know “What The Price” in the video for their single off the highly-touted ‘CULTURE’ album.

The cinematic video was directed by the Migos with help from Daps. The rockstars play a local rock band in the video, which includes a cameo from Zaytoven who kills it on the keytar. Towards the end things get violent as the group gets into a spat with a biker gang, before leaving with the money.

Migos are getting ready “Nobody Safe Tour” with Future, Young Thug, Tory Lanez and Kodak Black. They will also perform on “The Tonight Show” tonight. In the meantime watch the video for “What The Price” below via YouTube.

New Music: David Guetta – “Light My Body Up” Feat. Nicki Minaj & Lil Wayne [LISTEN]

light-my-body-up

Nicki Minaj recently passed Aretha Franklin as the female artist with most singles on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. This new single David Guetta single, “Light My Body Up,” is guaranteed to keep her at the top with all the makings of a No. 1-sounding song.

Wayne is also on the track dropping an auto-tune-filled verse, while Nicki drops a couple bars but mostly sings on the song. Guetta’s production is brilliant as the song should get plays on both Urban and Pop radio formats.

Kendrick Lamar Drops Cryptic Message Possibly Hinting A New Album [PEEP]

iv

Kendrick Lamar isn’t really on social media and doesn’t keep up with any of the outlets. So, when he dropped the above image on his Instagram earlier today, fans went into pandemonium, rightfully so.

To me the “IV” is K. Dot hinting at the release of his fourth album. The “IV” translates to the number 4 in Roman numerals. That makes sense if you take into account that his debut album was ‘Section.80’, his second was ‘good kid, m.A.A.d city’, and his third was the critically-acclaimed, ‘To Pimp A Butterfly’.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BR-YXjeha56/?taken-by=kendricklamar

Cornrow Kenny is really due to drop a new album being that it’s been two years since ‘To Pimp A Butterfly’. I mean, I know he dropped ‘Untitled Unmastered’ last year, but K. Dot don’t even consider that an album.

That number 4 could also be hinting that King Kendrick is planning to drop the album in April, being that April is the fourth month of the year. For now it is all speculation. There is no release date, cover art (unless that is the cover art), no info really.

Somebody added fuel to the fire posing as ScHoolboy Q on Facebook and taking a shot at Drake by posting a caricature of the ‘More Life’ cover with a worried face. Q should it down quickly with a response at Twitter calling it “corny”.

ScHoolboyQ
THe fact tHat y’all tHink I use facebook is funny to me smH….

In just a few hours, Mike WiLL Made-It will drop his ‘Ransom 2’ album. To warm things up, the mega-producer dropped another track on his birthday, where he collaborates with another mega-producer. The single “Aries (Yugo)” features Pharrell and Station Wagon P and is everything you would expect.

The track was more than just vocals from Pharrell, or should I say Station Wagon P, which is Pharrell’s rapping alter-ego on the song. P also assisted in the production of the track, making it a hell of a production. Last time the two clicked up was on “Move That Dope”. This one is a more chill track but it still shows the artistry of both producers well.

As an Aries I am thankful for this track from my fellow Aries. I can already tell it’s going to be one of my favorites off the ‘Ransom 2’ gem. It’s also worth noting, Mike called the song his “theme song” on Twitter.
