It is alleged that Lil Yachty is targeting Lil Uzi Vert in a new song that was first played on OVO Sound
The hip-hop community is abuzz with conjecture and hearsay, triggered by the launch of Drake’s latest album, For All The Dogs, and his OVO Sound radio program. Further stirring the pot is Lil Yachty’s upcoming song, which some followers suspect includes a discreet put-down aimed at Lil Uzi Vert.
The alleged diss is a line in the song where Lil Yachty raps, “Do the right thing like you’re friends with Mookie,” followed by “No matter how bad they want the collab, I ain’t friends with [muted].” The muted reference has led to speculation that Lil Yachty is referring to Lil Uzi Vert, as the two have yet to collaborate on a song together, excluding a remix for HoodRich Pablo Juan.
Adding fuel to the fire is the fact that both rappers rose to fame around the same time and share a similar fan base. They were even part of the same XXL Freshman Cypher in 2016. However, it’s worth noting that this is all speculation and Lil Yachty has not confirmed who he was referring to in his song.
Addressing the speculation, Lil Yachty used social media to apparently refute the allegations. He posted on Twitter, “You guys are so delusional,” followed by “You guys go about living your life pretending as if you know us. It’s extremely strange, especially as you’re all adults. Trying to piece things together here. You don’t know anything. Find employment.”
This tweet suggests that fans may be reading too much into the lyrics and making assumptions about his relationships with other artists. It’s also a reminder that not all rappers are friends or enemies; some simply coexist in the industry.
Whether or not Lil Yachty’s song is a diss towards Lil Uzi Vert remains unconfirmed. However, it’s clear that the speculation has added an extra layer of intrigue to the hip-hop scene. As always, fans will have to stay tuned for more updates and news on Lil Yachty and Lil Uzi Vert.

Cheryl Craigie reimagines “What’s Going On” through a classic soul lens
Some songs belong to an era, and others keep talking to every generation. Cheryl Craigie’s cover of “What’s Going On“ is a prime example of the latter, imbuing a classic soul sensibility into a song whose themes of compassion, understanding, unity, and concern for others are as relevant today as ever.
Cheryl Craigie is an independent singer, songwriter, and musician, and she has a strong artistic purpose with this release. She does Marvin Gaye’s beloved original justice while letting the timeless message sing in her own voice. Craigie’s approach is to speak to the need for kindness and human connection.
“What’s Going On“ is rooted in a timeless identity that is soulful and classic in style, and emotionally it’s about reflection and empathy. This approach relies on the vocal performance, which injects a unique element that helps magnify the song’s bigger message. The production does not detract from the themes that make the song so long-lasting, but rather supports the release by reinforcing its classic character.
What’s particularly interesting about Cheryl Craigie’s release is the balance she strikes between respecting the source material and asserting her own artistic presence. She knows the power of a song already part of music history and uses her interpretation to reconnect listeners with its core ideas. For Craigie, “What’s Going On” is a manifestation of an artist in love with music, with emotional and social weight, and of using her voice to carry the ageless soul message forward.

With “Who Am I Now” Intaluks explores identity, healing, and renewal
“Who Am I Now” is the Intaluks’ method of shifting the atmospheric emotion, an introspective melodic trance on loss, identity, healing, and the hard work of rebuilding when life takes an unexpected turn. The musical direction is a slow emotional journey, starting in darkness and gradually opening to hope and renewal.
This production frames that journey with expressive male vocals, emotional piano, and trance textures. “Who Am I Now” leaves its mark in the feel department through progression and atmosphere, not with a dramatic festival-type drop. The arrangement gives the song a reflective feel but still maintains the forward momentum of melodic trance.
The male delivery lends a human presence to the themes of uncertainty and self-reconstruction in the song’s vocals. The track tells of an inner journey, accompanied by the piano, the cinematic production, and the experience of confronting a changed reality, asking yourself who you are now, and slowly finding the strength to move forward.
Rather than relying on spectacle, Intaluks focuses on emotional development, letting the song’s mood build organically rather than through a traditional climax. The result is a trance piece so cinematic it feels as much about reflection as it does about forward motion, connecting electronic atmosphere with a highly personal theme. In “Who Am I Now,” Intaluks offers a release defined by transition rather than closure. The sound is its greatest triumph, reflecting that journey and making darkness the beginning of a brighter artistic path.
