Saweetie Explains Why She Might Be A Better Athlete Than Quavo

Saweetie told ‘Hot Ones’ host Sean Evans she definitely throws a tighter spiral than her record-breaking boyfriend. …

Bay Area rapper Saweetie sat at the Hot Ones table today and as she barely survived the Wings Of Death, she revealed her business advice for new artists, broke down Bay Area slang, and explained why she might just be a better athlete than her boyfriend Quavo.

After Hot Ones host Sean Evans noted that Saweetie’s grandfather once played for the San Francisco 49ers and asked which half of the couple “throws a tighter spiral,” Saweetie immediately responded, “Me,” explaining that she was nominated “Female Athlete Of The Year” at her high school and boasted “my name will forever be in the gym.” She elaborated that she competed in track, volleyball, and powderpuff football, saying, “Hey, I got an arm.” Quavo, of course, was his high school’s quarterback in 2009, leading his county in passing yards. However, the team only went 1-9 that season — which didn’t stop Quavo from posting his highlights on Twitter or hosting an annual Huncho Day neighborhood outreach celebrity game. He also regularly pops up in rapper pickup basketball footage, plays in the NBA’s All-Star Weekend celebrity game — earning MVP in 2018 — and even held a streetball tournament at the filming of his “How Bout That” video.

Maybe the couple will finally settle the score on an episode of Saweetie’s Icy Life YouTube show or in a music video for her upcoming album, Pretty Bitch Music. In the meantime, check out Quavo’s adorable story about how he slid in Saweetie’s DMs here and Saweetie’s new single “Back To The Streets” here.

Pags creates a laid-back but calculated approach on new release “NAMELESS SUPERSTAR”

Pags’ latest release, “NAMELESS SUPERSTAR” is a hip-hop/trap track that puts emphasis on tone, flow and subtle complexity with a laid-back but calculated approach. Rather than providing obvious hooks or lengthy lyrics, the song invites self-engagement.

The relaxed conversational cadence brings an easy rhythm to the song. Pags is clean so every bar comes through naturally. This performance doesn’t need attention, but it does reward it. What’s interesting about “NAMELESS SUPERSTAR” is the writing.

Some lines are immediate, some deferred. This has gotten a lot of responses which is good for the track. Makes you curious so you listen again to understand. Pags doesn’t like explaining. That choice gives the song a conversational rather than show tone. “NAMELESS SUPERSTAR” is about the build up and the things that make you want to listen again.

Mark Winters celebrates life’s best moments on new release “All In The Rhythm”

Mark Winters’ new track, “All In The Rhythm,” is a warm and moving folk-pop release that celebrates the quiet truth that life’s best moments often come from staying in step with the people we love. The song has an organic sense of openness and forward motion, inspired by a hike in Zion National Park.

“All In The Rhythm” captures the grounding simplicity of walking, breathing, and sharing meaningful moments with others, with an acoustic guitar and a steady pulse. That pulse-like rhythm is symbolic not just of music, but of connection itself.

The track hits home because of its uplifting honesty. It poses a serious question: what if the search for happiness is not about more, but about movement in harmony with loved ones, with life, with the now? That notion gives the song emotional weight without weighing down its bright spirit.

The folk-pop foundation lends it accessibility and charm. The steady groove propels the song with a reassuring, alive momentum, while acoustic textures add warmth. It’s easy to imagine listeners connecting with its hopeful message, because it speaks to something universal.
