This is literally rap history we’ve just witnessed. Tyler, the Creator performed “Bombs in Baghdad” in tribute of OutKast being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Tyler has such a respect and understanding of the art so he was really the perfect person for such a legendary performance
.
.
The performance has sparked some controversy tho as some say the tribute should’ve been performed strictly by Atlanta artists like JID, B.O.B., and others

Saekyi’s LOST IN AMERICA is a deep and relevant must-listen. The title track is from his debut album of the same name, in partnership with @genius . It’s a clear combination of punchy metaphors and dark instrumental with African vocals that tie back to his Ghanaian roots. The beginning notes of the song, to put it simply, sound like war. Which is fitting for such a powerful and social-justice focused song. The rap-influenced but overall genre-less song really knows how to skirt the lines between uniqueness & relatability. It’s clear that Saekyi has solidified his place at the forefront of the Virginia underground music scene.

YB says in latest @complexmusic interview that his album MASA (Make America Slime Again) is in support of “whatever Trump is applying”. This comes almost a year after YB was pardoned by by Trump and released from prison. Several songs on the 💿 also have lyrics related to Trump support. Yall think he’s a political puppet?

The revolution will not be televised, but you can listen to it. This think piece today walks us through Black American lifestyles and experiences. Introducing Eric Penn’s “American Fairytale” Deluxe. When we think of modern day “revolution” music, we may gravitate towards rap or rock, but don’t be fooled. This album is revolutionary music expressed through smooth beats and strong vocals that really takes us back to our roots of jazz and soul.
Taking a listen to this project is like taking a step into the life of Eric Penn himself. Comment “fairytale” below to get a link to the full article ✍🏽💫
