#MASSMONDAYS: Sylus Gambino, Big Super, MonaVeli
Another Monday, another list. As the month wraps up, I kept it short and sweet this week with three artists instead of the usual starting five.
Check out the latest below.
Sylus Gambino – ‘Down For Me’ featuring Vanni, 26 Rari and TK Kravitz
With his debut single, “Kill Or Be Killed,” racking up over 100,000 plays on Spotify, Sylus Gambino keeps the momentum going with the release of his brand new record, “Down For Me.”
The NNCHVLNT records president tapped on the services of his label artists Vanni and 26 Rari, as well as Atlanta’s own TK Kravitz (“Homebody,” “Ocean,” “Space”) for the Humbeats-produced track.
“Because we already did a street record, I [knew it] was the safety net or predictable go-too for the next record,” Gambino told miixtapechiick. “But, to showcase how much my range to create music can stretch, I went the total opposite direction, knowing I can execute both street feel records and also on the radio replay records.”
Set to appear on his forthcoming EP, the themes of loyalty and betrayal from the first two singles should give you an idea of what to expect from his highly-anticipated project.
Big Super – ‘Slight Work 2’
Big Super has never been the one to disappoint on a record.
With his EP Slight Work 2 coming soon, the multi-faceted artist drops the official title track. Serving as a follow up to February EP, No Favorites, Big Super certainly lives up to the Rebel Mafia name with his delivery over the cartel-inspired instrumental.
Back in May, Big Super dropped the visual for his single, “Stainless.”
MonaVeli – ‘Space’
New to miixtapechiick.com, MonaVeli surely makes an impression as soon as the beat dropped.
Her new record “Space” describes a feeling that we all know too well when it comes to needing a break and quieting the noise. Though only a minute and 50 seconds in running time, MonaVeli says all that she needs to on the track.
For the last few weeks, Drake has been on Kendrick Lamar‘s head since his diss on Metro Boomin and Future‘s We Don’t Trust You track, “Like That.” After Drake returned fire with two diss tracks titled, “Push Ups” and “Taylor Made Freestyle,” Kendrick Lamar returns with with a six minute diss track towards Drake titled, “Euphoria.”
“This ain’t been ’bout critics, not about gimmicks, not about who the greatest/It’s always been about love and hate, now let me say I’m the biggest hater/ I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk/I hate the way that you dress,” Kendrick spits, referencing DMX’s 2012 interview on The Breakfast Club.
Kendrick also mentions J. Cole on the track, rapping: “Cole and Aubrey know I’m a selfish guy, the crown is heavy/I pray they my real friends, if not, I’m YNW Melly.“

Chance The Rapper quietly revealed his upcoming mixtape, “Star Line,” via Instagram. In his bio, he simply stated, “Working on my mixtape it’s called Star Line.” The project will feature collaborations with notable artists like Lil Wayne, DJ Premier, Lil Yachty, and more.
On X (formerly Twitter), Chance shared a teaser clip featuring appearances from Wayne, Preemo, Lil Yachty, Jermaine Dupri, T-Pain, Jazze Pha, and Vic Mensa. Additionally, he gave fans a sneak peek of a new track titled “Buried Alive” and polled them on whether he should drop a music video for it.

Quavo Claps Back at Chris Brown with New Diss Track ‘Over Hoes & B*tches’; Chris Brown Responds
Quavo has fired back at Chris Brown with a new diss track, “Over Hoes & B*tches,” following Brown’s earlier release of “Weakest Link” aimed at him. This exchange began when Brown dissed Quavo on his track “Freak” from the deluxe version of his latest album, “11:11.” Quavo countered with “Tender,” prompting Brown’s response.
The latest track premiered on DJ Akademiks‘ livestream on Monday, Apr. 22, with Quavo targeting Brown and his associates from OHB, Saweetie and more.
“Lil boy wanna die ’bout some coochie?/You still fucked up ’bout Karrueche?/You tried to beat up Teyana, but Usher wouldn’t let you do it/The cocaine got him your honor, bipolar disorder, no wonder/You was the greatest, n***a, you fumbled/Going out sad, I’m watching you crumble.” Quavo spits.
Chris Brown has since responded to the diss stating that he’s disappointed.
