Album Stream: Adekunle Gold – ‘Tequila Ever After’ [ft. Pharrell Williams, Nile Rodgers, Simi, Coco Jones, Khalid & More]

Adekunle Gold has poured out his ‘Tequila Ever After.’

Serving as the Afro-Pop star’s fifth studio album (and debut for Def Jam), the flavorsome set packs a potent punch.

Towering tall at 17 tracks, the project was preceded by singles ‘Party No Dey Stop,’ ‘Ogaranya,’ and songs from his ‘Tio Tequila’ EP landed earlier this year.

An eclectic array of collaborators join AG on the LP – including Pharrell Williams, Nile Rodgers, Khalid, Coco Jones, and the performer’s wife Simi. Producers in the mix include Labrinth and Gold’s longtime partner in rhyme Kel-P.

Touted as a love letter the sound of Africa that has reverberated across the globe (such as Afrobeats and Amampiano), Gold said of the album:

“I’m not the Adekunle Gold who released my first album in 2016. I have a lot more confidence now.”

Stream: Travis Scott Releases Long-Awaited ‘Utopia’ Album [featuring Beyonce, Drake, Kanye West, The Weeknd, Bad Bunny, & More]

Nearly five years after topping the Billboard 200 with his third solo studio album ‘AstroWorld,’ Hip-Hop hitmaker Travis Scott is ready to repeat with feat with its star-studded follow-up, ‘Utopia.’

The long-teased set – which features megastars like Beyoncé, Drake, Sampha, James Blake, Metro Boomin, Kanye West, The Weeknd, Bad Bunny, and more across its 19 tracks – arrives as a surprise drop despite promises to fans they would see some of its content performed live at the Pyramids of Giza (an endeavor rescheduled due to ‘complex production issues’).

Delivered ahead of ‘Circus Maximus,’ a film co-directed by Scott alongside Kahlil Joseph, Harmony Korine, Gaspar Noe, Nicolas Winding Refn, and Valdimar Jóhannsson, ‘Utopia’ comes as the rapper’s first full-length musical project since the tragic ‘AstroWorld’ festival that claimed multiple lives and caused injuries to several attendees in 2021. While Travis was never indicted on criminal charges for the incident, he is still facing multiple lawsuits.

“Look, ain’t no b-tch finna front on me / Bad body b-tch with the jumbo teeth / Yellow Lamborghini like a bumblbee / Girl, nobody listen to you ‘less you talking ’bout me,” Cardi raps on the bop – making several inferences to her legal beef with popular vlogger Tasha K.

Believed to be the latest taste of new music set to board Offset’s highly anticipated sophomore solo album ‘Blame It On Set’ – the follow-up to 2019’s critically acclaimed ‘Father of 4‘ – hop inside to get acquainted with ‘Jealousy’ and its official video (starring Academy and EMMY Award-nominated actress Taraji P. Henson).

Quavo Opens Up About Takeoff’s Death: “Sometimes I Cry Myself to Sleep”

Quavo bares his emotions in a candid new interview.

The Migos member made headlines when announcing his forthcoming sophomore solo album ‘Rocket Power’ (due August 4).

More than the music, though, the MC seized the sit-down to open up about the inspiration fuelling its creation: his late band member, Takeoff.

Opening up about how he’s navigating life after the 28-year-old was killed in a shootout last October, Quavo admitted:

“When you see me and see me smiling, you don’t got to ever think that I forgot about him. I think about him all the time. Sometimes I cry myself to sleep. If I can’t feel him, I just know he’s around.”
