This one’s got some real Chance vibes mixed in with some “Too Close” energy and some just “I love your beauty, not just your booty” imagery. It’s sexy, but not really sexual, if that makes sense to some of you. I like this one, plus anything with Musiq Soulchild is destined to be greatness. Be […]

From Artist Rep: The fuckboi is a relatable type, the person trying to finesse you so that they can steal your work and profit off of it.

Perusing through the then-burgeoning iTunes Store, I found exactly what I was looking […]

Travi$ Scott dropped Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight recently (today on Spotify). It’s a project that picks up where his previous effort left off…but escalates everything by about twenty.
