DVSN Shares The Trailer For Forthcoming ‘Morning After’ Album [WATCH]

dvsn-morning

It’s no surprise that OVO signees, dvsn have an album on the way, coming sooner than many expect. The group comprised of Daniel Daley and producer Nineteen85 take things a step further today by sharing a cinematic video teaser of their upcoming ‘Morning After’ album.

Shot in Cuba the clip shows different views from the island, classic cars, kids running to a basketball court, and more as a soothing dvsn song plays in the background. Before fading to black a molotov cocktail is thrown in the air and the album title follows it.

As of now there is no set release date for ‘Morning After’, although it is expected to be dropping in the coming weeks. dvsn’s sophomore album is a follow-up to last year’s ‘Sept. 5th’, so maybe there’s a chance we get it on September 5th.

It’s all speculation for now but in the meantime watch the cinematic trailer below.

New Music: PARTYNEXTDOOR – “Put It On Silent (ALT. Version)” Feat. Ty Dolla $ign [LISTEN]

pnd-ty-dolla-put-it-on-silent

PARTYNEXTDOOR summons Ty Dolla $ign for the alternate version of his single, “Put It On Silent.” The original version of this single was one of four new single PND unexpectedly dropped last week.

Aside from seconding PND’s raunchy sentiments of taking another man’s girl and getting freaky with her, Dolla $ign also reaffirms fan’s request to see him on a track with the OVO crooner rapping, “Why you always this, why you always that? / When we getting you and Dolla on a track? / I’m the one she wanna be with / I’m the one she wanna sleep with.”

Although PND has now delivered five new singles in the last week, he made it clear on Twitter that it is not part of the ‘Club Atlantis’ rollout as many people including myself have assumed.

New Music: DJ Kay Slay – “Cold Summer” Feat. Kendrick Lamar, Mac Miller, Kevin Gates & Rell [LISTEN]

Screen Shot 2017-08-29 at 11.37.06 AM

Bringing together a crazy, rare combination of Kendrick Lamar, Mac Miller, Kevin Gates, and Rell, is what DJ Kay Slay does on his new single, “Cold Summer,” off his recently-announced, forthcoming album, ‘The Big Brother’.

With Kung-Fu Kenny, Mac Miller, and Kevin Gates showcasing their lyrical skills, respectively, Rell comes through with a smooth, soulful hook that is meant to repel against haters. Dot paints a picture with his words rapping, “Tidemarks and gun smoke stories / OGs reminisce and show glory / He said, ‘I’m hoping you make a way out / Before this MAC-11 do it for me.”

‘The Big Brother’ is set to be released September 22nd via EMPIRE. Aside from “Cold Summer,” the album will also include “Wild One” featuring Rick Ross, 2 Chainz, and Meet Sims. Shoutout Kay Slay for feeding us with these rare collabs.

logic-mtv-vmas-2017

Logic deserves all the praise in the world for addressing a major issue like suicide and being an ambassador of suicide prevention with his ‘Everybody’ single, “1-800-273-8255.” With the help of Alessia Cara and Khalid, the rapper did a heartfelt performance of the single at yesterday’s MTV’s Video Music Awards.

From the stage design, which included the artwork for the “1-800-273-8255” single to having 50 suicide attempt and loss survivors on stage with him wearing shirts that read, “You Are Not Alone.” Throughout the performance Logic urged people struggling with thoughts of suicide to call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline and pushed the message they are not alone.

Watch below and also check out Logic using his platform to address the media, who fails to make this a pressing issue and fails to cover it.

Screen Shot 2017-08-28 at 12.58.44 PM

Too many songs? Too many women? Too many what?

A week removed from delivering “Break Me Down” and “Damn,” PARTYNEXTDOOR returns with two other singles. For now we’ll call them loosies, although there’s a chance they can make his forthcoming ‘Club Atlantis’ albun.

On the first new single “Put It On Silent,” the OVO crooner rips the booming production with lyrics about infidelity and cheating with the lyrics, “Even if your phone starts ringin’, even if your boyfriend trippin’. … There’s someone out there who got sympathy for your ni**a / Not me.”

Listen below.

The second single “Naked” finds PND getting raunchy about his sexcapades and adventures with different women.

Listen below.

PND has been working and its evident. He’s now released four new single in the last week, while rumors surrounding his forthcoming ‘Club Atlantis’ album being released in the Fall continue to heat up. Next week he’ll hit the road with Halsey and Charli XCX for the  “hopeless fountain kingdom Tour.”
