Lil Wayne Wanders Through His Lavish Mansion In His Video For ‘Something Different’

The track, which is a take on Drake and Lil Durk’s ‘Laugh Now Cry Later’, is the latest ‘No Ceilings 3’ song to get the video treatment. …

Lil Wayne shared his No Ceilings 3 mixtape at the end of November, and has since released remixes of certain tracks by Lil Baby, Pop Smoke, Future, and more. Now there’s a video for one of its stand-out tracks, “Something New.” It follows him throughout his lavish mansion as he makes numerous outfit changes, and eventually taking a dive in the pool. He’s the only person in the video, apart from a nude woman who appears at the end.

There were a number of moments in No Ceilings 3 that caught the attention of fans. The project found him reconnecting with Drake for the first time in a few years, yielding the collaboration “BB King Freestyle.” Wayne also announced that his album I Am Not A Human Being III would arrive next year, news that was shared on the song “Lamar,” a remix of Jay-Z’s “Takeover.” On the flip side, he caught some flack for flexing his relationship with Donald Trump on “Life Is Good.” “I smoke it, she say pass it, she doing too much,” he said. “Haven’t done my taxes, f*cking with Trump.”

You can watch the “Something New” video above.

Album Review

Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”

Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.

Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses“ is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires“ is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.

“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.

The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home“ by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.

The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
