An XXXTentacion Hologram Tour May Happen

XXXTentacion had some of the most energetic shows out of anybody in the rap game. His crowds were raucous, generally involving more than a few moshpits and appearances from his friends in Members Only. The artist knew how to command your attention, getting you hyped up and screaming at the top of your lungs.

This weekend, his mother, Cleopatra Bernard, conducted a question-and-answer session on Discord, which brought all kinds of new information to his fans. For starters, there are several high-profile collaborations in the works, including with Juice WRLD (which may not ever be released, according to Ally Lotti), The Weeknd, and Lil Uzi Vert. Cleo also said that she was working on getting all of X’s old SoundCloud songs uploaded to streaming services.

One of the more eyebrow-raising reveals was the fact that XXXTentacion’s estate is considering a tour, or at least one performance, with a hologram version of the late rapper.

A fan in Nigeria asked if there would be any concerts planned in the country, seemingly not realizing that the artist was deceased. Cleo responded and said: “Well he’s not here but how would you guys feel about recreating at least part of his energy with a hologram?”

Some of X’s fans are saying that this is “too far”, accusing Cleo of using her son as a “cash grab”. Others are arguing that this is actually a good idea and, because it’s been done by Michael Jackson, Tupac Shakur, and others, it could actually work.

What do you think of a possible XXXTentacion hologram tour? Would you buy a ticket?

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

KYLE

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
