Future & Moneybagg Yo Connect In The Studio

At this point, few things in life are expected. One unyielding constant, however, is the fact the Future will be forever locked in the studio. Up-and-coming artists likely marvel at his prolific nature, with eight projects having been released since the beginning of 2017. Now, with 2020 quickly coming to an end, Future continues to put in work behind the scenes. Not only has he been steadily teasing a collaborative mixtape with Lil Uzi Vert, but songs like “Gucci Bucket Hat” seem to indicate that a new solo album is also on the way.

And while studio footage hardly serves as confirmation that an album is coming, it does strongly hint at such a conclusion. Especially in Future’s case, given the sheer volume of sneak previews he has taken to offering on his Instagram page. Most recently, he shared a few pictures of a recent session with Moneybagg Yo, with whom he previously collaborated on songs like “Okay,” “Federal Fed,” and “Chanel Junkie.” While the images are more of a fashion showcase than a musical one, the studio setting does seem to indicate that a collaboration did ensue.

On a purely speculative basis, it’s entirely possible that Future is lining up a Moneybagg appearance for his eventual follow-up to High Off Life, the potential home for the anticipated “Gucci Bucket Hat.” Likewise is it possible that the collab is meant for Moneybagg’s next effort — seems like we’ll have to wait and see whether this one manifests in some actual music.

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.

Each bar rings with resilience with ECHOFLIP, a record that embodies struggle, perseverance, and steadfast faith in the face of adversity. The result is music that is rooted in reality while reaching for something much larger.

Ideal for trap gospel, inspirational rap, and urban playlists that aim to uplift as much as energize, “Kingdom Rise” delivers on all fronts. It moves the body, it sharpens the mind, it stirs the soul.
