The Brooklyn native delivers his third feature of the year alongside the genre-bending collective. …
New music from Joey Badass have come far and few this year, but at least fans have been able to get something from the normally quiet Brooklyn rapper. Delivering yet another set of bars to his supporters, Joey links up with Phony Ppl for their new single, “On My Sh*t.” The song fits right alongside the many songs in the collective’s genre-bending resume and finds both artists dusting off their shoulders and complimenting themselves for being such clean-cut and top-notch gentlemen. They both go as far as to compliment the ladies around them that are on a similar elite status.
Giving fans and high-spirited video for the song, Phony Ppl pull up deep to a secret party filled with women who stand out just as much as they do. The collective pop their collars and take over the function while boasting of the precision-focused styles. Joey Badass soon appears at the party, as a surprise to everyone in attendance, and quickly finds his place among the attendees while laying a smooth verse filled with the same confidence Phony Ppl brought to the function.
This year marks the return of both Joey Badass and Phony Ppl. The Brooklyn rapper touched down with The Light Pack EP in July, a release that stood as his first solo project since 2017’s All Amerikkkan Badass. Aside from the EP, Joey also joined Nas and Statik Selektah for their “Keep It Moving” track. As for Phony Ppl, “On My Sh*t” is the group’s first release since tapping Megan Thee Stallion for “Fkn Around” back in January. The Brooklyn collective premiered the track during the Houston rapper’s NPR Tiny Desk set last year.

Alwyn Morrison explores betrayal, judgment, and survival on new EP “Trial”
Life isn’t always a straight line, and Alwyn Morrison explores that in “Trial,” a four-track EP that goes beyond the familiar territory of love and heartbreak. The project blends pop, rock, and singer-songwriter influences, exploring themes of betrayal, false accusations, emotional pain, self-defense, and survival. Each track is inspired by courtrooms and is a step in a personal journey of understanding, acceptance, and ultimately freedom.
The first track, “Puzzle Piece,” is Morrison’s raw, heavy alternative rock sound, fitting the weight of betrayal and false accusations. The song has a sense of tension, putting you in the shoes of someone trying to understand a difficult situation. Followed by “Everybody Bleeds,” which follows that emotional path, creating a song about confusion, openness, and the struggles we all face, and it’s an emotional listen, with hard truths and personal experiences laid bare.
The project’s focus track, “Monster,” goes into more personal territory. It explores what happens when we are judged or condemned for the choices we make, and it carries a message that goes far beyond Morrison’s own experience. The central theme will strike a chord with anyone who has felt misunderstood, unfairly labeled, or defined by others’ opinions.
The EP closes with “Fireflies,” a track that shifts the mood, contrasting childhood innocence and memories with the realities of adult life. The sequence moves the story toward resilience, survival, and earned acceptance. Alwyn Morrison spins a musical tale of hard life experiences put to the test. The courtroom concept gives the four songs real purpose to move on without letting past experience dictate the future.

Fanny Alexandra explores emotional recovery and self-discovery on “Ceasefire”
Not every fight ends a relationship, and there could be long-term emotional damage, with questions about identity, attachment, and the difficult path to moving on. “Ceasefire” is a ghostly alternative rock ballad in which Fanny Alexandra navigates difficult terrain, exploring emotional dependency and the search for selfhood after a toxic relationship.
“Ceasefire” is full of sad melodies and hints of atmospheric rock, making it a dark, cinematic listen. The song’s alt-rock pivot provides an emotionally charged foundation, and it’s about the internal battle, especially when your identity has been so tied to another person.
Fanny Alexandra’s ethereal vocal approach suits the song, lending real emotional weight to the exploration of self-loss and internal tension. “Ceasefire” is a reflective track, with atmospheric instrumentation and deeply personal songwriting that capture feelings that can linger long after a tough chapter closes.
It’s about finding yourself again, and its emotional arc moves from openness and dependence to the hard-earned discovery that personal freedom is more than just walking away. Fanny Alexandra’s love for dark, emotional alternative music inspired “Ceasefire.” Her art is about intimate storytelling, cinematic atmosphere, and making music that explores the quieter struggles people tend to keep inside. In this record, she turns the fallout from a toxic relationship into a meditative reflection on the long road to selfhood.
