Kanye West Released A New Song “Wash Us in the Blood”
Kanye West has delivered a new song and visual.
On Monday (June 29), the Chicago rhymer announced the name of his forthcoming album, God’s Country, via Twitter. At that time, he also shared that a new project with cinematographer Arthur Jafa was going to be released for a record titled “Wash Us in the Blood.” This morning (June 30), Kanye made good on his promise as the Jafa-directed visual is here and it features Travis Scott.
The video begins with footage from a protest in Florida, where a Black female officer from the Fort Lauderdale Police Department can be seen scolding her colleague for pushing a kneeling protester to the ground earlier this month. The visual then shows two individuals, who appear to be struggling to breathe, receiving medical attention. Ye’s new video seems to encapsulate the many aspects the country is currently facing including the coronavirus pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement protests.
“And they tryna control ‘Ye/They want me to calm down/They don’t want me to be Kanye/They don’t want Kanye to be Kanye/They wanna sign a fake Kanye, they tryna sign a calm ’Ye/That’s right I call him Calm ’Ye, but don’t take me the wrong way/But don’t take me the wrong way, its got took me a long way,” ‘Ye raps on the record.
La Flame then spits, “Let it off, set it off/Execution, thirty states (That’s right)/Thirty states still execute (Ah)/Thou shall not kill, I shall not spill, Nextels at the rendezvous (Ooh)/We dodgin’ time in the federal (Get ’em)/Squad box you in like a sectional/We walk through the glass and the residue (Ooh)/Now look what we headed to (Ah).”

The newly released video is Mr. West’s first visual since dropping the Jake Schreier-directed “Closed on Sunday” last November. Nearly a month after the video was offered, Kanye delivered Jesus Is King and his Sunday Service Choir’s album, Jesus Is Born.
Kanye’s new music comes after the announcement of his 10-year deal with Gap for his YZY Gap line. The decade-long partnership, which will launch online and in stores in the first half of 2021, will be comprised of “modern, elevated basics for men, women and kids at accessible price points.” He has also enlisted Nigerian designer Mowalola Ogunlesi to commandeer the design direction of the new line.

Ye also informed fans last week that he and Kid Cudi’s Kids See Ghosts album will be transformed into an animated kids show. Both rappers shared the news on Friday (June 26), revealing that the program is animated and directed by Tekashi Murakami. The show, which features the Kanye bear used in the rapper’s first three albums—The College Dropout, Late Registration and Graduation—and a fox named Kid Fox. Ye is the voice of the bear while Cudi is the voice of the fox.
It’s unclear when the cartoon will officially premiere.

The trapheaux gracefully glides over in new release “Marble Floors”
Trapheauxly’s latest release, “Marble Floors,” is a smooth, seductive single that combines clean, complex rap verses with melodic R&B. The song’s production, soulful vocal harmonies, and steady rhythmic pulse create a luxurious yet emotionally grounded atmosphere. All of these elements work together to create this atmosphere.
The most impressive aspect of it is the way it shifts from a catchy melodic hook to a rapid-fire delivery of the lyrics. One moment, “Marble Floors” is silky smooth, and the next, it is razor sharp. This contrast is what gives the musical its identity.
When it comes to lyrical concerns of intimacy, devotion, and elevated aesthetics, the image of marble floors appears, time and time again, as a symbol of elegance and emotional weight. Trapheauxly is a polished package that combines style, substance, and value that cannot be denied in terms of replay value.

NIHLNØTHING unleashes increased tides on new release “ocean” Power
NIHLNØTHING’s latest release, “Ocean” is a powerful, immersive single that defies classification as heavy music. The track sounds huge, punishing, and emotionally complex, as the title promises, drawing on post-metal, alternative metal, sludge, groove metal, metalcore, and deathcore.
A sense of depth makes “ocean” appealing. The song balances atmosphere and intensity like a violent current under calm waters. This track has towering sonic weight and textured melodic darkness, suggesting it can go from hypnotic tension to explosive release in a heartbeat.
Genre DNA enables NIHLNØTHING to create something expansive. It has sludge, groove, metalcore urgency, and a post-metal mood that’s probably more than aggression. NIHLNØTHING excels in contrasting crushing weight with atmosphere, chaos with control, and brutality with reflection. Balance distinguishes loud from powerful music.
