EarthGang And Wale Flex Their ‘Options’ With Confidence On Their New Collaboration
The track marks the duo’s second single of the year following their ‘Powered Up’ effort which landed on the ‘Madden NFL 21’ soundtrack. …

Considering the fact that their debut album, Mirrorland, arrived a little over a year ago, it may be a bit far-fetched to expect EarthGang’s would deliver their upcoming sophomore project at any point in the near future. Despite this, the Atlanta duo has teased some music over the past few months and now they have finally given their fans a new release in the form of their collaboration with Wale.
The track, entitled “Options,” has grown to be an unreleased fan favorite after they teased the song back in the spring. It’s an uptempo number that finds the trio flaunting the many options they have in their lives. Whether it be in respect to women or their careers, EarthGang and Wale make it clear that they’ll always somewhere to go or something to do.
Earthgang’s last 2020 single, “Powered Up,” can be found on the soundtrack for Madden NFL 21. Other than that, most of the duo’s recent work can be found on the recently released Spillage Village album, Spilligion, where EarthGang appeared on a number of tracks including “End Of Daze,” “Baptize,” “Hapi,” and “Jupiter.” They also joined the rest of the Spillage Village collective for a soulful Tiny Desk performance for the NPR series.
As for Wale, the DMV star released The Imperfect Storm EP earlier this year and released his most recent single, “Flawed” with Gunna, last month.
You can listen to “Options” in the video above.
Wale and Gunna are Warner Music artists. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

“Home Sweet Home” by Michellar delivers a heartfelt tribute to seeking comfort in adversity

There is something incredibly honest about Michellar’s latest single, “Home Sweet Home.” From the moment the first note hits, listeners are drawn into a deeply personal and universally relatable anthemic ballad.
Based in San Francisco, singer-songwriter and producer Michellar invests considerable emotional fidelity into this track, crafting a hauntingly evocative melody that echoes the longing we all feel when searching for a place of safety, whether physical or emotional. “Home Sweet Home” goes beyond merely telling a tale; it unravels a feeling that resonates in the quiet moments between the lyrics.
The beautifully restrained production allows Harrison Black’s vocal contributions to take center stage; his performance is delicate and robust, infusing the composition with a palpable sense of vulnerability and resilience to the song. Lyrically, “Home Sweet Home” employs the poignant metaphor of a runaway reuniting with a father, which symbolizes the intrinsic human desire to return to the comfort of familiarity while also depicting the internal conflict of escaping one’s demons. Mixed and mastered in the UK before returning to California, the track possesses an atmospheric depth that enhances its immersive quality, transforming each listening experience into a rich auditory journey.
What makes “Home Sweet Home” stand out isn’t just its substantive message but how it delivers it gracefully, intimately, and with an emotional weight that feels impossible to shake. Michellar’s talent for distilling complex emotions into relatable narratives cements their relevance in the contemporary music landscape, reminding us that music transcends sound to forge genuine connections.
For enthusiasts seeking a song that effectively marries noteworthy storytelling with soaring melodies, “Home Sweet Home” represents an essential addition to their playlists. It prompts listeners to confront their vulnerabilities while reaffirming that, regardless of where we wander, especially when life’s challenges seem insurmountable, a place or person consistently embodies the essence of ‘home.’ In this way, the home concept remains an enduring and ever-present sanctuary.

F1lthy Challenges DJ Akademiks to a Boxing Match After Controversial Comments on Playboi Carti’s MUSIC

The hip-hop scene is buzzing with excitement, and it’s not just about the music this time. F1lthy, a prominent producer who played a big role in Playboi Carti’s new album MUSIC, has thrown down a bold challenge that caught everyone off guard. This all started when DJ Akademiks, a well-known media personality, made some waves with his comments about the album’s launch, including some questionable claims about who was really behind its direction. Akademiks suggested that rapper Kendrick Lamar was the one creatively guiding the album, but F1lthy stepped in to set the record straight.
Instead of accepting the correction, Akademiks dismissed F1lthy, saying he didn’t even know who he was. For someone as influential as F1lthy, known for his work since Carti’s Whole Lotta Red, that comment felt personal. In response, F1lthy took to social media and issued a playful challenge, “You owe me a boxing match at Barclays Center.” Many fans are now excited about the idea of these two going head to head in the ring. Recently, it’s become trendy for celebrities to settle their disputes through boxing matches.
However, beneath this playful banter lies a more serious issue about how much respect producers deserve in the music industry. F1lthy has heavily influenced the unique sound of MUSIC, and his talent deserves recognition. While Akademiks may grab headlines with his commentary, it’s F1lthy’s beats that listeners truly enjoy. As the back and forth continues, it’s clear that their tension is far from resolved. Whether we’ll actually see a boxing match at Barclays Center is uncertain, F1lthy is ready to defend his name and fight for recognition.
