The name 4 time$ comes from him being the 4th generation of Eddie Wilson. 4 Time$ best describes his music as Trap Soul. Using melodies and meaningful lyrics to express himself. Having developed his musical style over time, he has found himself to be creating music mainly under the Hip-Hop genre.
We had the chance to interview 4 Time$ via Instagram to talk more about his music career, musical influences, and his challenges in the music industry.

Hey 4 Time$, Thanks for coming to Honk Magazine to talk about your music career. Tell us a little more about when you first got into music?

The first time I even thought about doing music was during a rough time in my life emotionally unstable and not knowing what to get through that hard time I found music as an outlet to expressing my feelings and I found that very therapeutic. Around the end of 2019, I dropped my first song I have seen family members and close people that I know doing music and being successful so I decided to do music.
 
If you could describe your sound/style in one word, what would it be and why?
 
I would best describe my style as Trap Soul/ Drill music (which originated in Chicago). I can best describe it like this due to the surroundings I grew up around also my willingness to be vulnerable and talk about things some artists aren’t comfortable enough to talk about in their music.
 
What would you say to any aspiring recording artists who look up to your work?
 
I would recommend them to make music that they enjoy first and foremost and not worry about other’s opinions. Also important to be honest with themselves if an artist knows that their music isn’t at a level to release it continue to work on the sound until it is. Lastly never allow anyone to dictate or control what one can or cannot do with their artistic property never, never give up on their beliefs and make sure to market market market if one is an up and coming artist it doesn’t matter how good your music is if no one can hear the song it’s like it was never made. Lastly, take control of your own situation I am the CEO of my own label and am going to be a household in the near future!
 
Do you have anything new or upcoming we can expect to see from you?
I’m continuing to work every day I’m currently working on my first mixtape set to release sometime in November, but for right now I’m just continuing to drop singles and visuals

Queen Bey – Beyoncé Shatters Records With Her Unprecedented 2025 Grammy Nominations

Beyoncé

Beyoncé is once again making headlines. After dominating the music scene, blazing through a record-breaking “Renaissance” tour, and launching a successful whiskey brand, SirDavis, weren’t enough, she’s now rewriting history at the Grammy Awards. In March, she took the world by storm with her eighth studio album release, COWBOY CARTER, which continues to echo across the charts. This year, the superstar has earned a stunning 11 Grammy nominations, setting a new record as the female artist who has ever received the most nominations in a single year. Once again, Beyoncé has firmly redefined what it means to be a trailblazer in the music industry, proving there are no limits to what she can achieve.

The 11 nods mark a new personal best for Beyoncé, who previously shared the long-standing record with Lauryn Hill at 10 nominations apiece. Hill achieved the feat in 1999, and Beyoncé first met that mark in 2010. The sheer range speaks volumes about her artistic versatility, relentless ambition, and unmatched status in the music industry. But with 2025 nominations, Beyoncé genuinely shines brightly in major categories like Record of the Year, Album of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance. Queen Bey’s fierce presence reinforces her iconic status in music in a highly competitive Grammy race that includes powerhouses like Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, and Billie Eilish.

This news arrives at an exciting time amidst swirling controversy. Despite COWBOY CARTER’s undeniable genre-bending success and Beyoncé’s well-received pivot into country influences, she was left out this year at the Country Music Awards and the People’s Choice Country Awards. With 17 nominations at the PCCAs, she walked away empty-handed, raising eyebrows across the industry. While Beyoncé soars on the Grammy stage, she’s faced notable snubs in the country music realm. A legend of the genre, Dolly Parton even commented on the snub in an interview with Variety, reflecting, “There’s so many wonderful country artists that, I guess probably are in the country music field, they probably thought, well, we can’t really leave out some of the ones that spend their whole life doing that.”

But for Beyoncé, this year’s Grammy nods are more than a consolation prize; they validate her impact. As she heads into Grammy season with 11 nominations, it’s clear that while the country music world might still be playing catch-up, the Grammys recognize Beyoncé’s immense talent. For enthusiasts and music lovers globally, one thing is sure: Beyoncé isn’t just making history. She’s actively reshaping it. Her work demonstrates that there are no limits within her sphere and that records are not intended to endure; instead, they are designed to be rewritten. Consequently, according to her vision and standards, she possesses the ability and intent to continue influencing the music industry.
