Kash Doll And Tee Grizzley Exchange Flirtatious Roasts On ‘Bossa Nova’

The two Detroit rappers reunite after sharing verses with their fellow Motor City MC Big Sean earlier this year. …

After previously featuring on Big Sean’s “Friday Night Cypher,” Detroit rappers Kash Doll and Tee Grizzley reconnect on the boastful “Bossa Nova.” Produced by Hit-Boy, the new single combines a skittering snare rhythm, ghostly chants, and a whining lead to backdrop the two Motor City MCs’ chest-beating rhymes. Kash establishes her dominance early, questioning, “What the f*ck I look like hoppin’ out a Uber?” Then Grizzley steps up to the plate playing lothario with a lustful verse of his own before Kash bats cleanup, dragging would-be players with “air in his Magnum.” Yikes.

Kash is a little over a year removed from her last full-length project, Stacked, but she’s kept her buzz louder than a packed barbershop with singles “Wake Up,” “Rich Hoochie,” and most recently, the DJ Infamous, Mulatto, and Benny The Butcher team-up, “Bad Azz.” “Bossa Nova” is yet another in-your-face single from her upcoming sophomore album, which doesn’t have a title or release date as yet.

Meanwhile, Tee Grizzley is fresh off the release of his 2020 mixtape The Smartest after losing his aunt/manager to gun violence last summer. He teamed up with Motown rap vet Big Sean twice this year — once on the latter’s Detroit 2 in the above-mentioned “Cypher,” and again on “Trenches” from The Smartest.

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

Michellar

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

HonkMagazine

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.
