With the release of Tink's "Pillow Talk" it sparked a discussion surrounding the state of R&B today following on from Diddy's recent statement. We also got releases from WSTRN, Che Ecru, Sango, $not, Moneybagg Yo, Tendy Hendrix and Internet Money. 

While we had some new releases from The Game's "Drillmatic: Heart vs Mind" and Dangermouse & Black Thought's "Cheat Codes", we both seemingly spent the week revisiting projects of the past. We also got round to some albums we missed from earlier in the year such as "Love Damini" from Burna Boy. 

This week was relatively slow in terms of big releases (well at least in our opinion) but we got into releases from Doechii, NBA YoungBoy, Kali Uchis, PJ Morton, Splash Brothers, Reason, IAMNOBODI and Skeng. Enjoy 

There was no way we could record this week's episode without covering The Queen B's return with "Renaissance". Although we were a little late with these two we got into M Huncho's "Chasing Euphoria" and Nafe Smallz "Legacy" which lead us down a path of discussing Wave music in the UK currently. 

We finally got blessed with the Devil Mix for Cammy Riddim from Blay Vision this week so expect Rebel to get into that on this episode. One of our long time favourites Joey Bada$$ dropped his highly anticipated "2000" album which we dived into. We also got releases from Lloyd Banks, A2, DVSN, and the CMG collective. 

After close to two months away from the pod, we're back with a lot to cover as we're sure you can imagine. A lot has happened and a lot of music has dropped in our unplanned hiatus so typically we'd brief you on what music was covered in this episode but it was quite a long one so make sure you listen from start to finish. We missed you and hope the feeling is mutual. 

We found ourselves almost repeating the same sentiment in review of the some of the projects we covered on this week's episode. We had releases from Jack Harlow, Knucks, Ella Mai, Kehlani, Raheem Devaughn and Future. Bia recruited J.Cole for the brilliantly shot "London" song/music video and we had to give an honourable mention to Unknown T. 

This week was undoubtedly Pusha T's week. Well for us anyway. For reasons neither of us care to go into, the timing of this release was interesting to say the least. We spent most of the last week taking in "It's Almost Dry" however we still got into releases from Bas, Gotti Major, Blxst, Vince Staples, Coi Leray, 42 Dugg & Est Gee. Kendrick Lemar announced his upcoming album 'Mr.Morale & The Big Steppers" which has had the internet talking this last week and we had to give an honourable mention to Dom Kennedy.  

With the release of Dreamville’s “D-Day” mixtape it has caused Rebel to reconsider where he has them ranked it in the top Hip-Hop collectives/labels of our time. As expected there was a fair share of good music we came across from the likes of Knucks, Pusha T, Skillibeng, Mnelia, Chris Brown, Ella Mai plus more. Rebel had the pleasure of recently attending the concert of none other than the unicorn we know to be Shakka and shares his thoughts on it.

"Chords & Chorus'" are about to get much more entertaining now that Rebel has added sound effects to the soundboard and will be adding new ones as time goes on. Plenty of laughs like little children at this new development but with that said it was definitely called for with some of the releases discussed this week. Despite the 3 million and one music releases per week we're still seemingly managing to cover a decent amount of ground so far as we got round to new music from Denzel Curry, Latto, Rema, Ego Ella May, Tiana Major9, Koffee, Youngs Teflon plus a few more. These days we're making a habit of highlighting music that isn't necessarily new but new to us which has been fun to say the least so this episode is another one you don't want to miss!.
