Twenty-two years ago, the now-mainstream rapper Eminem released his debut album, Infinite. The album would prove incredibly unsuccessful, garnering very few sales, but ultimately propel him to the idea of developing the infamous Slim Shady moniker and approach.

Rapsody’s new EP Crown marks her first project since signing with Roc Nation back in July. Over soulful production, Rapsody rhymes about everything from her involvement in President Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper initiative, to good and not-so-good relationships, to her sentiments in the wake of Trump’s election. Highlights include the Tiimmy Turner-inspired “Tina Turner”, the “boss-man’s wife’s sister’s sample” flip on “Mad” and the Ab-Soul-assisted “2AM”.

After teasing us on Twitter, Gucci took to Soundcloud and dropped a brand new mixtape with fellow Atlanta artist, Future. Free Bricks 2 is the sequel to their 2011 collab project, Free Bricks. Highlights include “RR Trucks”, “Selling Heroin”, and “Zone 6”.
