BIA Teams Up with J. Cole on New Single ‘LONDON’
Earlier this week, BIA teased her new single ‘LONDON‘ with artwork that featured a hidden figure. Later in the week, BIA revealed the hidden feature was J. Cole and that she would be dropping her new single on Friday.
Fresh off her appearance at J. Cole’s Dreamville Fest., the two team up on the AzizTheShake, Jon Glass and Tim Nihan-produced track and ride the beat effortlessly.
“I damn near didn’t even wanna put this clip up cuz I need everybody to hear this shit PURE. How I heard it,” said J.Cole in an Instagram caption. “I Asked BIA to come through the studio for some whole other shit. First time meeting her. We chop it up. She plays me this new song she had just did. Mannnnnnn. in that moment I was blown away.”
“I thought about this song for a month straight, it was my favorite song and I only heard it one time. She hit me recently and sent me the song (she musta knew I wanted to hear it again!!!) and I was just grateful to have it in my possession.”
Directed by Daps, the official music video was shot all around London, including in Shoreditch and the River Thames. UK drill rapper Unknown T also makes a cameo.
The record marks J. Cole’s first guest verse since the release of the Gangsta Grillz mixtape, D-Day, with Dreamville and BIA latest release following October’s For Certain Deluxe Edition.
R&B singer and dancer DaniLeigh just released her latest single ‘Dead To Me’ which alludes to her past relationship with Dababy and the controversies surrounding their split.
“It’s over, buried, our love is gone
I ain’t breaking no more dishes ’bout it
You ain’t gotta call to see about me
Already know what I feel about you
‘Cause you so dead“
In a 22-minute sit-down with radio personality Angie Martinez, DaniLeigh confirmed the completion of a 7-song EP called ‘My Side,’ thus making ‘DTM‘ the lead single. As the title suggests, it will be a tell-all from her own perspective. Although she started the project while things were still fresh, it was still a part of that cathartic, thus therapeutic process that she needed not only for her own peace of mind but also for the sake of her precious baby girl.
During the interview, the South Florida native also detailed that infamous night on IG live. She made note of all the compassion afforded to her by many viewers including Karreuche, Summer Walker, BIA, and more.
On a lighter note, the singer spoke about her career as a dancer for plenty of amazing talents like — Jeremiah, Meghan Trainor, Keyshia Cole, Miguel, Pharell, Missy Elliot and Pitbull. Now, she’s ecstatic to lean deeper into choreography and is excited to unveil it all!

After teaming up with Kanye West on the Donda 2 cut “Lord Lift Me Up,” and on Fivio Foreign‘s “Changed On Me,” Vory teams up with Yung Bleu and NAV on his new single, “Do Not Disturb.”
Set to appear on his forthcoming album, Lost Souls, the record finds Vory wanting his muse to put her phone on silent and focus on what’s happening in real-time.
“Take a trip and put your phone on do not disturb/Putting in OT but you keep working my nerves/Not trying to go back and forth about who hurt who first/You ain’t gotta question, baby, it’s yours,” he sings
Lost Souls will serve as the follow-up to Vory’s 2020 EP Vory. Back in January, he revealed Kanye West, Gunna, Beam, Landstrip Chip and Fresco would be featured on the sophomore effort.

Earlier this year, Kendrick Lamar resurfaced, performing at the Super Bowl LVI halftime show alongside Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent and Mary J. Blige at SoFi Stadium.
The performance took place just six months after it was announced that Compton native would be dropping his final album on Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE). In an open letter from the rapper’s oklama.com website, the DAMN. rapper began his letter with: “I spend most of my days with fleeting thoughts. Writing. Listening. And collecting old Beach cruisers.”
“As I produce my final TDE album, I feel joy to have been a part of such a cultural imprint after 17 years” it reads. “The Struggles. The Success. And most importantly, the Brotherhood. May the Most High continue to use Top Dawg as a vessel for candid creators. As I continue to pursue my life’s calling”.
Kendrick ends the letter with “There’s beauty in completion. And always faith in the unknown. Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts. I’ve prayed for you all.”
Fast forward to earlier this month, Kendrick released a press release under his pgLang imprint with the announcement that his third studio album, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, would be dropping on May 13.
Teasing the album’s release with “The Heart Part 5” earlier this week, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers is a double-disc project that features 18 tracks with contributions from Ghostface Killah, Kodak Black, Summer Walker, Blxst, Baby Keem, Tanna Leone, Sam Dev, Taylour Paige, Amanda Reifer, Sampha and Beth Gibbons of Portishead.
