New Music: DRAM – “Crumbs” Feat. Playboi Carti [LISTEN]

A few days ago Big Baby DRAM dropped the Rick Rubin-produced single “Check Ya Fabrics.” He ups the ante with another new single called “Crumbs” featuring Playboi Carti.

Both singles might be on DRAM’s forthcoming sophomore album and follow-up to last year’s self-titled debut. There’s not much information on his next album, but the one thing that is for certain is it should be nice, especially if the two aforementioned singles make the cut.

Listen to “Crumbs” below.

SAUCE IT UP!

We all know how close Lil Uzi Vert and Playboi Carti are and how fire the music they make together is. It’s been a mystery why they haven’t released a collaborative mixtape yet, although Uzi announced it in September, but today they announced a supporting tour for the tape called “The 16*29 Tour.”

The tour is referencing the 1600 block in Philly where Uzi grew up and the 2900 block in Atlanta, where Carti dwelled. Supporting acts on the mixtape include Chicago’s G Herbo and the up-and-coming buzzy Bay Area group, SOBxRBE.

“The 16*29 Tour” is set to begin in Denver, Colorado on November 17th and make its way across the North American region with stops in cities like Atlanta, Miami, Boston, Houston, Dallas, Washington, and many others.

Pre-sale tickets will be available for purchase tomorrow and general admission goes on sale the following day of October 20th local time.

Along with “Magnolia,” Playboi Carti has generated a hit with “wokeuplikethis*” featuring Lil Uzi Vert. The Atlanta rapper drops the visuals for the Uzi-assisted single today exclusively on TIDAL.

From rock star to prisoner, the video captures Carti in different elements as he sits in a cell getting his hair done. Uzi performs his verse in a dark room, while he waves two uzis in the air. In the end all the prisoners escape as alarms blare and smoke settles.
