This week’s Billboard 200 chart — the second since rapper King Von’s death two weeks ago — features no less than three entries from the late Chicago star as two of his albums re-entered the list in the wake of his passing. His most recently released project, Welcome To O’Block, also jumped into the top five as fans rediscovered or paid tribute to the Von. The previous two albums, 2019’s Grandson, Vol. 1 and 2020’s Levon James re-entered at No. 52 and 39, respectively.
King Von has three albums on this week's #Billboard200:
#5, Welcome To O'Block
#39, Levon James (re-entry)
#52, Grandson, Vol. 1 (re-entry)— billboard charts (@billboardcharts) November 16, 2020
Meanwhile, the remainder of the top five Billboard 200 albums included country star Luke Combs’ What You See Is What You Get at No. 4, Australian emo-rap star and Juice WRLD protege The Kid Laroi’s F*ck Love at No. 3, late Brooklyn drill rapper Pop Smoke’s Shoot For The Stars, Aim For The Moon at No. 2, and pop queen Ariana Grande’s recently released Positions at No. 1.
King Von died on November 6 after being shot outside an Atlanta lounge during an altercation with local rapper Quando Rondo’s crew. The shooter was allegedly a member of Rondo’s crew who opened fire after punches were thrown, prompting a pair of nearby Atlanta police to also shoot at the group. Two men were killed at the scene, while Von died at the hospital later. Welcome To O’Block reached No. 13 on the next week’s chart.

Sahara CyberStars evokes a soul-stirring sonic charm with its new release, “Winds of Time”

Occasionally, a musical composition emerges with the soaring intensity of an impending storm, captivating attention, and provoking thought. “Winds of Time,” the latest single by Sahara CyberStars, epitomizes this phenomenon. Rooted deeply in the heart of classic rock balladry, this track from the Irish-Australian duo Trish and Dave Long presents a reflective exploration through chaos, resilience, and the inexorable wheel of time.
Originally penned during calmer periods, which they refer to as “more normal times,” the song feels eerily prophetic today. Its lyrical foundation is substantial, notably illustrated in lines such as “the power of greed came to plunder, pull our world asunder.” There’s no cryptic poetry here; Sahara CyberStars speaks plainly and impactfully, whispering universal truth within a melodically sophisticated framework.
Trish’s hauntingly ethereal vocal delivery juxtaposes beautifully with Dave’s intricate instrumentation, imbuing the track with organic warmth. Their sound harkens back to their roots in Dublin’s music scene while incorporating expansive cinematic narrative styles in Aussie landscapes. The interplay between their voices and instruments conveys an authenticity that feels both lived-in and emotionally profound.
But its intrinsic sense of hope distinctly elevates “Winds of Time.” Yes, it reflects on a fractured societal narrative and simultaneously seeks to illuminate pathways toward recovery and renewal. The chorus crescendos with a subtle optimism, reminding listeners that, despite turbulent conditions, the resilience of the human spirit remains undiminished. It asserts that while times may change and bring something brighter, the healing potential is inevitable.
Sahara CyberStars has effectively distilled a timeless essence within “Winds of Time” that resonates with contemporary rock ballad audiences. Amidst the chaos, “Winds of Time” stands out as a profoundly earnest sonic testament to our identity, the history of where we’ve been, and the vital importance of perseverance through adversity. It’s a perfect anthem for visionaries and those navigating the impossible-to-ignore whirlwind of shared experiences, searching for meaning through sincere expression.
