“No Industry Standard” is the eighth full length solo release from the Wisco spitter, an impressive feat for any emcee. Aside from that, the list of guest features is enough to make any Hip Hop fan get gassed when reading over the tracklisting. We are treated to more new music from Denku alongside KRS One and Chino XL, artists that Taiyamo has worked with already in the past. The Midwest word-bender also lands some heavy hitters with the addition on Conway The Machine and Benny The Butcher of Griselda Records fame (signed to Eminem’s Shady Records imprint.
He also digs deep into the Cypha Den Music vault to unleash one of his biggest guest to date, Lil Kim. Co-owner and in-house producer, Dcypha, once again provides the production of the album, albeit the Psycho Les produced, “Stand Back”. The selections range from down right gutter to soulfully sampled righteousness.
Taiyamo is very outspoken, both online and in real life. He keeps the Hip Hop art form near and dear to his heart, an art he’s been highly active with over his lengthy career span. As the genre continues to dumb down and morph, the Milwaukee Monsta remains defiant of the change. His mission with “No Industry Standard” is simple, to make rappers aware that lyricism is king, not bright colored hair or gimmicks.
Hip Hop purists, this ones for you. Stream and purchase “No Industry Standard” exclusively on Bandcamp.
As previously reported by miixtapechiick.com, Queen Naija announced her engagement to Clarence White earlier this week. Today she made it official through music, releasing “Ring” via Motown Records.
“I had a while to really bask in my moment and now I’m ready to share it with the ones who have truly been here since the beginning to see it all unfold,” Queen said. “I’m so happy to be able to use music to express myself about my real life.”
“Ring” marks her first release since her EP 30. and arrives with early traction already built — the record generated over 1.3 million views and 200,000 likes across her native posts before release, and has sparked over 135 TikTok creations surpassing 2 million views.
Tyla and Zara Larsson seem to have broken the internet with “She Did It Again,” their new collaborative single. Produced by Ari PenSmith, the track serves as the second single from forthcoming sophomore album A-Pop. Fans have already drawn comparisons between the “She Did It Again” video and Beyoncé and Shakira‘s 2007 “Beautiful Liar.”
Tyla teased the collaboration last week with hidden figure images in the single’s cover art, leaving fans to guess who the featured artist was. The collaborator was revealed to be Zara Larsson on Wednesday, April 15.
“No ordinary love, this is propane, no, it’s not safe / Baby, this a dangerous game for you / Baby, this is all child’s play to me,” Tyla sings on the track.
“She Did It Again” follows “Chanel,” which Tyla released in October and has continued to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Tyla announced A-Pop at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards on earlier this year. Her self-titled debut arrived in 2024, and she has since released the WWP EP featuring Wizkid ahead of this new era.
After revealing the cover art earlier this week, JT returns with her new single “Numb.” Produced by Danes Blood, Ben10K, Chicken, and BAMBII, a limited signed 7-inch vinyl of the single is available for pre-order now exclusively at thegirljtworld.com.
“I ain’t never been a fake b*tch ever / I can never hang with a lame b*tch never,” she raps on the track.
The release comes off her surprise appearance at Coachella last weekend. JT appeared during Little Simz‘s set to debut their collaboration “Game On,” served as DJ and creative director for a Numb-inspired activation at the Do LaB stage, and hosted an afterparty at the Red Bull Mirage.
“Numb” follows “Girls Gone Wild,” released in November 2025, and her 2024 mixtape City Cinderella, which debuted in the Top 5 on Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
