With the city of Boston and soon to be the state undergoing a state of emergency, this is probably the best time to release music with students out of school and adults working home remotely, having more time to scroll on their social media feed.
Stream the new music we found below.
C Wells – ‘Before The Tour Bus 2’
Artist: C Wells
Album: Before The Tour Bus 2
Though his show was postponed debut to COVID-19, that didn’t stop C Wells from dropping his brand new album, Before The Tour Bus 2.
A sequel to his 2017 project which featured guest appearances by Dave East and G Herbo, C Wells is more open about his life this time around – striving to make sure his family is straight, continuing to put his hometown on the map, and reminding the haters who started this shit.
Coming in with 9 tracks, the project features contributions from Jay Critch, T Drape and Prince Smooth, with the majority of production handled by Marz. However, Jon Glass takes on producing the album’s final track, “Better Rap On The Outro.”
Before The Bus 2 serves as a follow-up to C Wells’ 2019 self-titled LP.
My favorite records: “Hood Famous,” “Bag Hunting” ft. T Drape
Stream C Wells’ Before The Tour Bus 2 below.
Austin Fair – ‘Joyride’
Artist: Austin Fair
Mixtape: Joyride
Almost a year since the release of his single, “Slide,” Austin Fair returns with the release of his latest project, Joyride.
With production handled by Humbeats, Hetriks, Twayne The Kidd, Avery on the Beat, and Cre8, the project certainly lives up to its name and gets my recommendation to add to your daily playlist.
The 10-track effort contains features from Eskay, XNDRSOUND and Pasto Chris.
(Can I just say he definitely sounds like Red Cafe on “HEART OF THE WORLD.”)
Stream Joyride below.
Wave – ‘Help Me Help You’
Artist: Wave
Mixtape: Help Me Help You
Last week, Wave dropped his debut mixtape, Help Me Help You.
Coming in with 12 tracks, I have to say that this probably my favorite project released this year, thus far. From the wordplay to production, Wave made sure to take his time with the curation of this record.
At the same time, I’m lowkey bias because pain music will always resonate with me.
With a lone feature from Packo, stream Wave’s Help Me Help You project below and tell us what you think!
Favorite records: “Opp Block,” “Unbreakable,””Pain”

Following Kendrick Lamar‘s release of ”Not Like Us” on Saturday, Drake swiftly responds with his own diss track, “The Heart Pt. 6.”
In a clever nod to Kendrick’s previous diss, Drake aptly chose to dub his latest diss “The Heart Pt. 6.” Kendrick, who had previously named his diss track “6:16 in LA,” borrowed from Drake’s signature style of titling tracks with timestamps in various cities. Notably, Kendrick Lamar has gained renown for his ongoing “The Heart” series, releasing “The Heart Pt. 5” back in 2022.
The Heart Part 6 out now

And we know you’re dropping 6 mins after so instead of posting my address you have a lot to addresshttps://t.co/hL9tOiuuhh
In his latest diss, Drake unveils revelations about Kendrick being misled regarding Drake’s alleged daughter on “Meet the Grahams.”
“You waited for this momеnt, overcome with the desperation / We plotted for a week and then we fed you the information / A daughter that’s 11 years old, I bet he takes it / We thought about giving a fake name or a destination / But you so thirsty, you not concerned with investigation,” he raps.
He continued with, “You gotta learn to fact check things and be less impatient / Your fans are rejoicing thinkin’ this is my expiration / Even the picture you used, the jokes and the medication / The Maybach glove and the drug he uses for less inflation / Master manipulator, you bid on the speculation.”
Drake also doubles down that Dave Free fathered one of Kendrick’s children and questions why Kendrick hasn’t seen his children in six months.
“And why isn’t Whitney denying all of the allegations? / Why is she following Dave Free and not Mr. Morale? / You haven’t seen the kids in six months, the distance is wild / Dave leaving heart emojis underneath pics of the child,” he raps.

In the early hours of Saturday, May 3, Drake unleashed “FAMILY MATTERS,” taking aim at Kendrick Lamar. In retaliation, Lamar fired back within the hour with his response, “meet the Grahams.”
The saga continues as Kendrick has unleashed yet another scathing diss track titled “Not Like Us.” Over Mustard‘s production, Lamar continues to confront Drake, exposing allegations of underage relationships, entanglements with Lil Wayne’s girlfriend, and much more.
The cover art for the single shows Drake’s Toronto mansion with markers typically reserved for identifying sex offenders.
“Say Drake I hear you like em young, to any b*tch that talk to em and they in love, make sure you hide your little sister from em,” Kendrick spits.
Listen to the track below.

May 4, 2024Kendrick Lamar did not take kindly to Drake‘s latest diss track, “FAMILY MATTERS,” and has fired back with another diss towards the Toronto rapper an hour later on a track titled “meet the grahams.”
On the latest diss track, Kendrick is extremely direct, bringing up Drake’s mother, father, and son. He also reveals that Drake is hiding another child, a baby girl, and doubles down on claims that Drake is dating underage girls.
On Drake’s alleged second child:
“I’d like to say it’s not your fault that he’s hiding another child/Give him grace/That’s the reason I made Mr. Morale.”
Drake’s mother, Sandra:
“Dear Sandra, your son got some habits/I hope you don’t undermine them.”
“Your son’s a sick man with sick thoughts/I think n—-s like him should die/Him and Weinstein should get fucked up in a cell for the rest of they life/ And we’ve gotta raise our daughters knowing there’s predators like him lurkin’/Fuck a rap battle, he should die, so all of these women can live with a purpose.”
Drake’s father, Dennis:
“You raised a horrible fuckin’ person/The nerve of you, Dennis”
