If anyone can get Ab-Soul out of hiding, it’s Jhené Aiko. Before releasing the deluxe version of her third studio album, Chilombo, the songstress treats us to the official video of the original project’s album-cut, “One Way St.”

Directed by, Aiko and Ab-Soul are found in various spots of Los Angeles reflecting on this roller coaster we call life.

“Stuck in traffic on the road less traveled, no fast track/That’s how life’ll do you, I had to learn to backtrack,” spits Soul.

During a Q&A with fans, Aiko said she was inspired to write the record after literally driving on the wrong side of the street.

“One Way” marks the sixth collaboration between Aiko and Soul.

“I know what I like to hear and I wanna be able to listen to my music and love it as if it were, you know, another artist ’cause I feel like, because it’s me I can get tired easily and be like “Oh, okay. I know what I sound like, I was there when I made the song,” said Aiko in an interview. “But I love to get the songs to the a point where I can listen to them, myself and just be detached from the fact that is me.”

Watch the two in “One Way” below.

Beyoncé Releases Act II: Cowboy Carter Album miixtapechiick

Beyoncé has released Act II: Cowboy Carter, a highly anticipated follow-up to her 2022 masterpiece, Renaissance, also known as Act I.

This phenomenal project seamlessly weaves together the iconic voices of Country music legends such as Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, and Linda Martell, alongside dynamic guest appearances from Post Malone, Miley Cyrus, Brittney Spencer, Tanner Addell, and many more. With a total runtime of 1 hour and 18 minutes, Act II promises an immersive experience like no other.

In an Instagram revelation, Beyoncé shared, “This album has been over five years in the making.  It was born out of an experience that I had years ago where I did not feel welcomed…and it was very clear that I wasn’t. But, because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of Country music and studied our rich musical archive. It feels good to see how music can unite so many people around the world, while also amplifying the voices of some of the people who have dedicated so much of their lives educating on our musical history.”

Reflecting on her transformative journey, Beyoncé continued, “The criticisms I faced when I first entered this genre forced me to propel past the limitations that were put on me. act ii is a result of challenging myself, and taking my time to bend and blend genres together to create this body of work.”

With Act II, Beyoncé invites listeners to embark on an unforgettable journey—a continuation of the musical narrative introduced in Renaissance. “This isn’t just a Country album; this is a Beyoncé album,” she declared. “I focused on this album as a continuation of RENAISSANCE…I hope this music is an experience, creating another journey where you can close your eyes, start from the beginning and never stop.”
