Westside Boogie And Joey Badass Run Through The Thoughts That Clutter Their Minds On ‘Outside’
The collaboration arrives after Boogie teased news music with a promo video that saw him get “kidnapped” from his home. …
Next month will mark two years since Westside Boogie shared his debut album, Everyting’s For Sale. The project was a great display of the connection between love and social media along with its high and lows. Since he released the album, Westside Boogie has stayed rather quiet, only reappearing for an occasional guest appearance like with Reason on “Trapped In” and on the LVRN’s Home For The Holidays album for “12 Days of Bhristmas” with OMB Bloodbath. Now, the Compton rapper is ready to release his next project and he begins its rollout with a brand new single alongside Joey Badass.
The rappers join forces for the first-ever collaboration on “Outside.” The track finds them confined in the walls of their thoughts, walls that emulate the literal fixtures that much of the country has been enclosed in over the past few months due to the pandemic. Boogie leads the way with a verse that dives into the depths of mind while giving his label boss, Eminem, a shoutout on the song by interpolating his 2000 track, “The Way I Am.” Joey Badass comes through with his own guest verse, joining his 2020 list that includes Phony Ppl’s “On My Sh*t” and Pusha T’s “No Explanation.” Boogie returns with a third verse to bring the introspective track to a close.
Prior to the song’s release, Westside Boogie shared two promo videos that saw him get kidnap and forced into a studio to record music after such a long period without releasing something for his fans.

Leyla Romanova finds strength in silence on new release “Self-Control”
Leyla Romanova‘s new single, “Self-Control,” is a powerful emotional release that feels more like a manifesto for surviving modern chaos than a song. In a world of opinions, urgency, and emotional exhaustion, Romanova offers a track based on one radical idea: not reacting.
“Self-Control” immediately creates tension and clarity. The drums keep everything together with discipline and purpose. As the textured instrumentals expand like waves of thought through a crowded mind, the bass anchors the listener emotionally.
The contrast between outside noise and inside stillness makes the song compelling. Romanova’s work captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, opinions, and distractions while silently retaining personal peace. There are no major uprisings. But restraint is power. The song knows energy conservation is a survival strategy.

J’mall expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own on “Unattainable”
J’mall’s latest single, “Unattainable,” expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own. The song explores the emotional void caused by constant comparison rather than motivation.
“Unattainable” is about realizing that no matter how hard one works to meet others’ expectations, the reward will never be satisfying. J’mall explores the stress of “keeping up with the Joneses” and the exhaustion of comparing yourself to standards that weren’t meant for you.
The song’s honesty resonates, the message doesn’t feel preachy or polished. It feels personal, like J’mall is sharing life lessons. The record’s quiet strength is its embrace of individuality and personal responsibility without pretending it’s easy.
