SAINt JHN Shares Stacked “While The World Was Burning” Tracklist

SAINt JHN was on the rise prior to the release of Iambek’s “Roses” remix. Following that, the Brooklyn artist exploded into a global sensation, to the point where his upcoming album While The World Was Burning stands among the year’s most anticipated drops left. Especially after JHN recently unveiled the stacked lineup of featured artists, a list that includes Kanye West, Future, DaBaby, J.I.D, Lil Uzi Vert, Kehlani, 6LACK, and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie. Now, the entire tracklist has surfaced via Apple Music, providing a more thorough glimpse at the sequence to come.

While it’s difficult to discern anything concrete based on song titles alone, it seems as if a few joints will be, at the very least, loosely conceptual; consider the back to back tandem of “High School Reunion, Prom” with Lil Uzi Vert and “Monica Lewinsky, Election Year,” with DaBaby and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, both of which appear to be capturing a snapshot in time. “Quarantine Wifey” with J.I.D is unsurprisingly topical, and the gospel-ready language of “Pray For Me” seems perfect for Kanye West.

With the project set to arrive on November 30th, which is still weeks away, there’s still plenty of time for the hype to build. In the meantime, be sure to check out SAINt JHN’s new single “Sucks To Be You,” not to be confused with the 1999 Prozzäk single of the same name. From the look of it, the reflective track will be kicking off the entire project, so it will be interesting to see whether or not it will set a consistent tone. Check out the full list below, and sound off — are you excited for SAINt JHN’s While The World Was Burning?

DJ Akademiks questions if Lil Durk will get bond as the racketeering case goes on

Lil Durk’s legal battle is about to take another big step, and DJ Akademiks is already sharing his expectations for what could go down when the rapper returns to court in November.

Durk is in custody, awaiting his next VICAR case in which authorities say he was running a criminal enterprise. His next trial was set for October 5, but recent developments have called into question when those proceedings will occur.

Durk’s murder for hire trial recently resulted in a not guilty verdict in November. Regardless of that outcome, he remains in custody because the separate racketeering related charges remain unresolved. Durk’s attorneys have asked for the new hearing and have been ordered to appear by U.S. Probation and Pretrial Services, which also must submit a fresh bail report.

Against that backdrop, legal commentator Bradford Cohen had previously suggested Durk could eventually get bond. That view ties in with Durk’s not-guilty verdict in the earlier case, and the argument that the outcome could make it harder to sustain the remaining allegations.

DJ Akademiks sees things a bit differently. In a recent livestream, Akademiks predicted that Durk would not get a bond at the Nov. hearing. He believes the charges will stick and cites the seriousness of the allegations in the VICAR case as his reasoning. He also doesn’t appear to expect the rapper to be released from jail anytime soon as the case moves forward.

Akademiks’ prediction concerns the bond hearing, not Durk’s chances at trial. Durk’s legal situation remains unresolved for now. His recent acquittal has altered the circumstances of his arrest, but the separate racketeering case still looms over the rapper as both sides prepare for the next phase.

DJ Akademiks Resurrects 2015 Drake vs. Meek Mill Beef With Alleged Nicki Minaj Backstory

DJ Akademiks is digging up hip-hop history buried for 10 years as he offers his supposed explanation for how the Drake/Meek Mill feud came to a head in 2015. The back-and-forth between Akademiks and Meek Mill has resurfaced the conversation. Akademiks returned to the long-running Drake-Meek beef on his stream last night, saying a comment by Nicki Minaj had something to do with what happened between the two rappers.

According to Akademiks, Meek and Minaj were shopping at a designer fashion store when they got to the register. He says that when Meek told her he didn’t have the cash to pay for Minaj, she allegedly told him he would never be Drake. Akademiks also claims Minaj left the store on her own, and then Meek went on X, and what happened next started the infamous feud with Drake.

The account remains an allegation, not a confirmed explanation. The information provided has not been independently verified, and ultimately only those involved, including Minaj and Meek Mill, could confirm the story’s authenticity.

However, the two eventually made up and collaborated on “Going Bad,” signaling a return to a more cooperative relationship despite the rivalry’s tension.

Whether his version of events is what actually happened, however, remains unresolved. Currently, the designer-store story isn’t factual, but it is Akademiks’ version of the events surrounding the beef.
