Abril Spring Shares Captivating New Single “Cure”
Rising alternative rap artist Abril Spring has returned with her brand-new single, “Cure”. Born and raised in Barcelona, Spain, Abril made her impactful debut earlier this year with single “Free The Sex”, which introduced the world to her unique and unapologetic brand of hip-hop/rap, and “Cure” looks set to continue her growing momentum. The track is taken from the independent artist’s upcoming debut album, which is due for release early next year.
With Abril’s transparent and conversational music style shining through, “Cure” immediately commands attention. With the subject matter discussing drug addiction in a toxic relationship, Abril begins the song with the inquiring rhetorical question: “Isn’t it funny? Most of our problems and discussions are caused by the same exact thing that ends up solving them.” Aside from the impressive lyricism and storytelling, Abril’s flow and energy on the track is equally impressive, resulting in a song that offers endless replay value and definitively marks Abril Spring out as one to watch.
Elaborating further on the new release, Abril says, “‘Cure’ is a very personal song for me. I wrote it in a really intense and confusing time of my life and, just like with all the album, it helped me express, organise and understand my thoughts and emotions at the time. ‘Cure’ is about drug addiction in a toxic relationship and about how you can either choose to face reality for better or for worse or to escape it at all costs.”
Offering something fresh, diverse and different to the norm, Abril Spring is a great addition to the hip-hop/rap scene, and it’s clear from “Cure” that the rising talent has an exciting future ahead. And with her debut album already complete and ready to be unveiled in 2022, expect to see and hear plenty more from Abril over the next year. “Cure” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://abrilspring.lnk.to/cure.

Lil Durk Co Defendants OTF Dede and David Lindsey Seek Acquittal and New Trial
OTF Dede and David Lindsey are fighting their recent stalking convictions as the legal process in Lil Durk’s case continues to play out.
Lil Durk was facing five charges, two of them murder-for-hire related and three of them stalking related, while the two co-defendants were convicted on three counts of stalking in the same case. Durk was just cleared of all charges in that case a couple of weeks ago, but Dede and Lindsey didn’t get the same result.
The latest legal twist adds another chapter to a case that has remained tightly connected to Lil Durk’s ongoing legal troubles. Durk was acquitted in the initial murder-for-hire case, but his larger legal battle is far from over.

For Dede and Lindsey, the immediate issue is their stalking convictions and whether the court will grant either of the new requests filed. The couple’s pleas carry long prison sentences, and the pending motions are especially important for their attorneys.
The court has not ruled on the Rule 29 and Rule 33 motions, leaving the next phase of litigation uncertain.
Lil Durk, meanwhile, is set to appear in court on November 4 for a bond hearing. His trial in the VICAR case was scheduled for the next few weeks, but it is likely to be delayed.
Separate legal proceedings are now moving forward in the cases of Durk, Dede, and Lindsey, who remain active. Dede and Lindsey’s latest filings ensure that the group’s legal saga continues even after Durk’s acquittal in the original case.

Meek Mill steps back from his ongoing feud with DJ Akademiks,
Meek Mill and DJ Akademiks’ ongoing social media beef has taken another turn, with Meek seemingly getting the last word.
The two have been feuding for around a decade, and their tensions have become closely tied to the fallout from Meek’s beef with Drake. Following Akademiks taking Drake’s side in the public feud, Meek clearly didn’t want to be featured on Akademiks’ page. Since then, they have exchanged occasional messages and renewed disagreements.
The latest chapter heated up around the Lil Durk trial. Meek Mill called out Akademiks for his coverage and commentary on the case, saying he had become a bad influence on the culture.

Akademiks fired back hard, and the beef snowballed into a back and forth of threats between the two. At one point, Meek asked for Akademiks’ address, while Akademiks showed off an arsenal of machine guns and rifles. The confrontation had been really serious before apparently cooling off in recent days.
The message is the latest chapter in a long-running feud that has flared up several times over the past decade. This latest back-and-forth could be Meek’s attempt to close the door on the feud, but given the history between the two, tensions can flare up fast.
So far, it looks like Meek is putting a line under his part of the conversation. Only time will tell whether Akademiks responds.
