Jack Harlow‘s debut album That’s What They All Say is coming out this Friday and to help hype the release, he and Big Sean buy out the bar to celebrate in the raucous video for its latest single “Way Out.” Over the course of their high-speed verses, Jack and Sean detail their relations with their exes and flirt with women from Harlow’s tour bus, while the video plays with freeze-frame shots of the bar while they turn up — a la Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell’s The Other Guys.

Harlow surprised fans with the release date announcement last week after enjoying a breakout year that saw him reach No. 2 on the Hot 100 with “What’s Poppin,” speak out against police brutality at the 2020 BET Hip-Hop Awards, and make a new friend in the NBA with “Tyler Herro” (one he might need after accidentally putting Lou Williams on blast during the NBA’s bubble season when Williams hit up Magic City in Atlanta for wings). With the year he’s had, there’s little doubt That’s What They All Say will receive a warm reception on Friday.

Watch the “Way Out” video above.

That’s What They All Say is due 12/11 via Atlantic Records. Pre-save it here.

Jack Harlow is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Jonathan Zogbi reaches new heights with new release “Sky High”

Jonathan Zogbi’s latest release, “Sky High,” is a turning point in his career as a musician. It turns personal problems into a message of hope and growth. The track has a catchy beat and a modern, sleek production style, but it also has a deeper meaning and purpose.

“Sky High” draws on modern pop music and gives it a spiritual boost. The production is bright, which makes it easy to get into, but it doesn’t take away from the song’s emotional core. On the other hand, Zogbi walks a fine line between being popular and telling a good story.

The story behind this release is what makes it so cool. After getting a diagnosis that changed his life, Zogbi left his job as an engineer and turned inward, eventually turning to music. This started as a personal outlet, but it has clearly grown into something more purposeful: a place for realness, connection, and art rooted in a message. Jonathan Zogbi’s new song “Sky High” is also a statement about an artistic path defined by purpose, showing that you can rise even when things are tough.

Knux Burgandy rejects being average on new release “Mediocre”

Knux Burgandy’s new single, “Mediocre,” sounds more like a personal statement than a song. The Boston producer-artist is all in on pain rap, and the song hits hard and with purpose. It’s based on raw feelings, sharpened by what you’ve been through.

“Mediocre” is a hard-hitting trap record, but what really sets it apart is its heart. Burgandy doesn’t just rap, he also talks about how he feels, thinks, and fights against settling for less. It’s easy to chant the hook, and it stays in your head after just one listen. The message, on the other hand, lasts a lot longer, no matter what happens, don’t settle for an average life.

Knux Burgandy is becoming well-known in a way that seems real and important. His community is increasingly supporting him, and he is clearly dedicated to his work. The word “mediocre” isn’t just a word, it’s a reminder that being average was never the goal.
