As Ariana is growing with her music, I can’t help but to love her more and more. Such a talent and stays with the dopest features and nice vibes throughout the whole album.
BUSTA RHYMES – EXTINCTION LEVEL EVENT 2: THE WRATH OF GOD
Not only am I super excited for Busta Rhymes to drop part 2 from 1998’s Extinction Level Event 1! Then listening to the album has me in total awe. First, shoutout to Busta Rhymes for copying 21 Savages style with including Chris Rock on his album. Wait, dope ass features with BBD, M.O.P., Rick Ross and even Minister Farrakhan speaks, and others. Overall this is a dope project. Yes it doesn’t compare to the first Extinction Level Event, but the 2nd half of the album does get LIT! Busta is an artist who is not going anywhere nor getting rid of his lyrical flows.
SAM SMITH – LOVE GOES
Love Goes https://t.co/eTCT4PUAle Mixture of emotions releasing this album. It’s such a weird time to release music but I hope this record can be your friend. It’s been mine. This is a celebration of youth and music and singing like a drama queen. I love you all eternally x pic.twitter.com/xYz5nvGEA3
What I enjoy about Sam Smith’s music is that you can feel it in your soul, and is very relatable. This album feels like the soundtrack to just about everybody’s life and experiences in this crazy year of 2020. Of course Sam made sure to include some dance tracks while belting out heart felt lyrics provides the recipe to a great album.
It’s been 3 years since WizKid has dropped his own album. Now we did get some great music from him a couple months ago when Beyonce re-released the Lion King soundtrack, but it just wasn’t all WizKid tho! Just like his last album be prepared to groove with the tight riddims on this project. Even the intro had me ready to slow wine imagining I am on an island somewhere! Great project overall…I always expect the best work from WizKid.
One thing I love about King Von is he is a story teller. He will have you thinking you are there in Chicago! On this project expect to hear from mainly Chicago artists which is very dope, always represent for your hometown especially when the love is being returned back! This project is definitely a step up from his previous work, and overall I like it.
I do not know what people was complaining about? I like this album. Trippie does come off with a more calmer and quieter sound than on his previous work, but the sound works for him. I think he has mastered his cadence in music for no matter how he changes it up, it still comes together and sounds great! Of course he has all the dope features including Cleveland’s own, Doe Boy, who has a project coming out November 6th. If you are a true fan of Trippie Redd you will definitely enjoy this album as well.
Common always thinks outside of the box and stay dropping music that makes you think and vibe for the production is always dope! Honestly can’t find nothing negative about music that is supposed to uplift you especially during these crazy times.
I look at MadeinTYO like a new version of TY Dolla $ign. They’re both dope with the productions and can make decent albums for themselves! Now I was shocked to see that the producer had came out with an album. Now I am so happy! LOL Forreal this album totally is a banger. Each track will have you boppin your head, plus with features from a mixture of people like J Balvin to Cam’ron to even Wiz Khalifa.
I am not going to say too much about this deluxe version for I spoke highly on the regular album when it came out. Since 2020 is the year for all these deluxe albums Lil Keed said shit why not? LOL The new songs that he has added on the deluxe add to the already flavored album. Basically saying Lil Keed is LIT.
JIMMY VALENTIME & URBAN MIRACLE – DANGEROUS TO GO ALONE
You can tell that Jimmy is straight into old school hip hop which nothing is wrong with that for I do like how he blends it with the current style of hip hop now. The first 3 tracks had me wondering what was I getting into, but then the song “Porch Lights” comes on and I found myself vibing to it hard. Next thing I know the rest of the album was dope! This is one of the reasons why I love to listen to albums, for 1 single truly does not give an artist any justice.
The Midwest knows how to come thru with some good music and dope lyrics. That’s what Jalen did with this project. I feel like this is the best ending to a TGIF! I am glad this artist reached out to me, and that I actually took the time to check him out. After your first listen I bet that you will not be disappointed at all.
Make sure to check out new episodes of Tina with the Tea featuring Ms Cream of the Crop as my cohost on EVERY podcast station or if you want to see the visuals of us go to 216 The Beat’s channel on YouTube!!
I have been personally waiting on one of the best producers to drop his project. Who you might ask? Oh, TY Dolla $ign!!!! Of course expect features from Nicki Minaj or Big Sean just to name a few. You still not sold yet?? Well…check it out and let me know what you think.
To describe Jean Dawson’s music is combining rock with house type of beats with a little mix of grunge on the side, then BOOM you have this dope project from such an eclectic artist. With only one feature from A$AP Rocky, you find yourself very interested in finding out more about this artist.
D DOUBLE E – D.O.N. (DOUBLE OR NOTHING)
DOUBLE OR NOTHING IS OUT NOW ON ALL DIGITAL PLATFORMS
Thank you to everyone who’s been apart of the journey
If you are into the UK’s version of Drill music, you will definitely enjoy this project! D Double E is a diverse artist for he has a reggae track featuring the lovely Ms. Banks. With dope lyrics to match his swagger…he can’t go wrong.
THEY. – THE AMANDA TAPE
thankful for you guys for continuing to ride with us through this whole journey🙏🏾🙏🏾. The Amanda Tape is out now. https://t.co/mC1yFCouZY
I totally love this project!! They. definitely created a vibe on this project. You can literally play this project from beginning to the end without skipping a track, if this is the type of energy you search for! They. only has 3 features including my girl Tinashe, Wale, and Juicy J. With quality production and real stories to tell in a dope vibe wins every time!!
It’s been a awhile since we heard from Detroit’s own Dej Loaf! I admit being a newbie with a breakout hit that changed the game for her is quite overwhelming to any artist for everyone will be expecting the exact same thing when that’s not realistic! You can tell that Dej has evolved on this project, especially with sounding so transparent. I don’t even want to mention who her features are LOL I literally want yall to check her album out. PERIOD!
This project was already dope AF! Now Dave decided to follow in the common trend of this year by coming out with a deluxe version of his album Karma 3! Honestly, I am excited fr. This just made the original project much better with adding a remix LOL This is definitely a must listen.
I love this artist story telling!!! Listening to this project had me thinking of cold nights in black n white LOL If the Ep sounds like this…I can’t wait to see what Chuck has coming next!
I swear Joyner Lucas does not get the credit he so fully deserves! His music is always on point, from his lyrics to the production, which sounds like each song should be in someone’s soundtrack! Joyner is literally a true talent, he makes you feel proud! It’s ALL BLACK EVERYTHING!!
I can’t even lie…I was anxious to hear Chanel’s project! Overall I am happily surprised, and she isn’t on here trying to be the dopest lyricist ever or have a trillion Black rappers featured just to so how down she is. To be down isn’t something that can be staged, and what I am getting from this project is a piece of Chanel’s life outside of MTV’s Ridiculous. Congratulations Chanel! This project is nice, and you will be shocked to hear the tone of her voice on this project too.
I just want to input some fire flames all in this comment section! Comethazine came hard on this project…he letting you know that you can’t count him out PERIOD!!!
Young Thug literally creating his own lane with his Slimes, and that’s also including Yak Gotti. I will say that Gotti is Outta Here for this project is lit! Dope features with Gunna, Lil Duke, and all the other Slime members Yak Gotti got the recipe for him to win!!
I am so excited to be blessed with the opportunity to listen to this dope album. Jadon’s album has dope production, vocals , and the lyrics is definitely super dope. I suggest for everyone to check this album out. You can be late to the party, but at least you showed up and showed out. Congratulations Jadon!!!
Barlos Montana always comes thru with some kappin ass music to be bumping to! What I like about him as an artist is that his style is not like what you expect to hear coming from out of Cleveland, Oh, but that swag…most definitely LOL This album is a must listen!!
Anything T.I. makes best believe I am here for!!! T.I. stays making music that us grown folks can get into as well as those tracks that you can get litty too as well, and this album does just that! Happy belated Birthday Tip!!!
I love seeing Gucci Mane is this official position as a BOSS!! He is bringing out his crew, the So Icy Gang. Yall should’ve gotten familiar with them with their first collaborative effort “So Icy Summer“. Every track on this project isdope, and I am loving the artist’s Gucci has, but honestly I always expect the best from him anyways! Burr!
BLACK THOUGHT – STREAMS OF THOUGHT VOL.3: CANE & ABEL
If you know anything about the artist, Black Thought, you know that he comes with lyrics that make you think! For those aren’t familiar with the artist…he is the lead rapper in the group, The Roots. This 3rd installment of his Streams of Thought is dope! I also love the features he has like Killer Mike, Pusha T, Swizz Beatz , and others!
I swear this is an artist who is hardly seen anywhere, but when he releases projects, those project’s be dope af!! Party Pack does exactly that! This project is super dope please including features from Nipsey Hussle, Quavo, Lil Yatchy, and others!

This is a successful year for the Midwest label, and I am anxious to see what’s next!!

It’s nothing but dope flows, great production, plus real facts speaking! This project is definitely a must listen.
I was wondering what this “link up” was going to be, but honestly…I like the collaborate effort between the two. Both are talented in their own right so it works well! This project has a very cool vibe to it, plus with dope features with Wiz Khalifa, Davido, and French Montana
I had to save the best for last, Sheek Louch! Just seeing his name should let you know that this 4th installment of his Beast Mode series will go hard, and it does!!!

PAPOOSE – ENDANGERED SPECIES
Keep running the numbers up on my new album! I appreciate your support. Click here https://t.co/87LniS8Hhd
I can not lie…It has been ages since I checked in out any Papoose album. Not saying that his music isn’t worth the listen…it just wasn’t my thing, but for those who do love his music…this album will be the shit for you guys! Papoose definitely reminds everyone that outside of his famous wife, he is someone to not play with.
Trey Songz never seems to let me down when it comes to his music. I mean literally since day 1! I love this albums whole cadence as well as how smoothly it moves on to the next track. He calls this album “Back Home” , and I hope that means he’s back to being a great artist and person all around. Stay proving the haters wrong Trey!
First off, I want to say RIP to Famous Dex’s mother, Diana. I think he did a good album especially since it’s dedicated to his deceased mom. I love the features as well as the production that honestly always comes thru on every project Dex drops.

NBA Youngboy is one of those artists who stays releasing dope music regardless of what’s going on with him or whatever is being said on social media. I especially loved the track with LIl Wayne featured on it.
At first I thought that I had never heard of Niki, but if you guys are familiar with 88Rising, you have heard of her. Not only is she an artist, she is a producer, writer, and composer whose FINALLY dropped her own project that is currently trending on twitter as we speak! This is definitely a must listen.
Coming from Cleveland, OH I always have been a fan of Chicago’s drill music. It’s crazy how everybody is now making they on style of drill music from New York to even over the water in the UK. Lil Reese is one of the originals, and comes thru representing per usual. This project sounds like one those albums to ride to.
ZAYAH – ENIGMA EP

Ty Bri been popping out in Cleveland since late 2018, and after going thru changes with management she is now able to showcase her talent! I had the pleasure of meeting Ty Bri back in November at her coming out party. Now she has finally dropped her mixtape! Expect this project to be filled with dope upbeat songs, features from Mulatto, YFL Pooh, and LvfromCLE, and ladies anthems to sing along with.
I truly love Ms. Toni Braxton’s voice!!! This album is like a breath of fresh air to my speakers! This project will be on repeat!!
ALUNA – RENAISSANCE
Nothing compares to the feeling of sharing a body of work that has so many little pieces of yourself woven into it, pieces that you didn’t even know were there. It’s strange to let it be someone else’s, RENAISSANCE IS NOW YOURS!https://t.co/3Z2J2EIHQspic.twitter.com/4in7Mwtj3M
This project is super dope!!!! They are giving you that Lox energy thats missing in the rap game. DMX even shows up on the project bring that dog flow and growls!!
What I truly love about this project is that Nas not only came with his dope ass flows, but he brought such a upbeat vibe special thanks to the producer, Hit-Boy!! This Black powered filled album includes dope features with Big Sean, Charlie Wilson, Don Toliver, Lil Durk, and even The Firm. For those youngins who may not know who The Firm is….it’s includes Foxy Brown, AZ, and Cormega!!!
I am sooo geeked!!! I have been waiting see Mulatto come with a album for over a year now! After winning Jermaine Dupri’s rapper contest, it seemed as if Mulatto wasn’t going to blow up, but she proved us wrong! This project is very lit, and is very entertain-able!
MONEYMAN – EPIDEMIC

Vic Mensa seems to always present himself in a different way every time he drops a new project, and he stuck to the same code on this project as well! I swear I felt some Jay-Z vibe on this project. Overall the project is dope, and his lyrical flow is impeccable.
GUAPDAD4000 – PLATINUM FALCON RETURNS
Guapdad 4000 drops off “Platinum Falcon Returns” ft. Denzel Curry, Boogie & more. https://t.co/NrCSADAwbf
Derez Deshon never fails to drop some music that you will literally feel in your soul for he speaks about real life pain, struggle, and love. I admit that I have been waiting for this project to drop for quite some time, and I am so happy that it finally did!!
Hey Goodies!!! I hope everyone’s week was great or if not….be blessed you have made it through it!!! This week of new releases are LIT!!! We got a new release from Paid In Full rapper Rakim. We also havePaid In Fullrapper Rakim’s son who released a new project. Lil Keed and NLE Choppa have also step to plate with some fire music. Lil Baby and Rod Wave are following in the steps of other well known artist by re-releasing their most recent albums with added music then repackaging them as deluxe albums. Popcaan coming through with riddems, while Tobe Nwigwe making sure he keeps are heads spinning with not only dope lyricism, but hitting topics that should be on the forefront of the news!
I feel that these are all the ingredients to add for a fine dinner of fresh music!!! Oh and do not forget to check your girl out! I have fresh and new content up on 216 The Beat radio channel on Youtube called Tina with the Tea!!!!!
It’s knew it was about time for Amine to drop another album!! I think it’s been since 2017!!!! Please believe that not only is the wait over, but it was well worth the wait. This sophomore album sounds like he really took his time and even made a very good dedication to the recently deceased ex NBA player, Kobe Bryant. Overall, this is a great album with a lot of feel good tracks with dope lyricism to top it off!
So DaBaby decided to follow the theme of 2020 which is re-release your album , but make it a deluxe album! Honestly…I’m liking a lot of the new songs added to the deluxe album vs the original! I swear DaBaby is not going anywhere no time soon!
I swear Lil Keed is my favorite out of Young Thugs crew of slimes. The project Keed dropped last year was super dope even though I had to get used to his voice…you can tell he was speaking on some ish! Trust and believe that this project will provide extra bump in ya ride!!!
NLE Choppa came thru on this project! I can say that literally every song will have you bobbin your head continuously! If he stays clear from trouble I believe that he will have a successful career.
If you are looking for some feel good music with some reggae feel…this album will give you that fix! Popcaan goes in on this album, even Drake is featured on this blazing album.
I see the formula for re-releasing albums with additional songs by which makes the project a deluxe version. Like Dababy, I like the songs a little more that was added onto the original album. I personally enjoy Rod Wave’s music for he makes music that you can feel, and this project is something his fans will definitely enjoy.
This right here!!!!!!!! OMFG THIS RIGHT HERE!!!!! This is a project that we been needed and I suggest for all to listen to. This project represents everything we people of color are feeling especially during this year of 2020. Great work Tobe!!
I swear to be the son of rapper, Rakim, I feel like that instantly puts expectations of greatness on you, but I can say that Tahmell seems to have found his own lane that fits him. This project has a nice vibe to it, and dope flows. This project is definitely worth a listen or maybe 2!!
Soooo…I am guessing that Jacob must be a lovely Leo LOL There’s nothing like putting music out around the time of your birthday…I guess it gets you ready to celebrate! Jacob who has a nice voice that does well on any beat. Short project with great song selections to get you in the mood plus features that include: Trevor Jackson, Rotimi, Eric Bellinger and others!
Hey Goodies!!! Make sure to check out “Tina with the Tea” after getting updated on all the new music releases for the week!!!
You will not believe that singer Brandy has finally released a new album in 8 years, and so many other dope releases came out today too! Check them out below:
I am truly excited on how Barlos Montana is staying consistent with releasing out material. His style is something different than any other artist coming out of Cleveland for being different can always set him apart from the others. While this Ep only contained 3 tracks….I can say it has me anticipating for more!
To see that one of my favorite singers/actresses finally released some new music I was totally ecstatic!!! It literally been 8 years since she has released anything new! This new album starts off a little slow, but once you get to song 6 the album starts to come live LOL overall I am elated to hear her voice again and I hope she continues to bless us with her music.
Mannnn….I love Dom Kennedy’s music! Especially that mixtape he came out with back in 2012/2013 was kept on repeat and now he’s back like he’s never left with some more feel good tracks that come with dope rhymes to give you a little something to bump to on a nice sunny day!
I am salty this is only an Ep!!!!! I am truly feeling the track that has Flipp Dinero featured on it, but overall this guy right here is someone to be looking out for in the future.
BEYONCE – THE LION KING: THE GIFT(DELUXE)
#BlackIsKing 🇬🇭 : I originally went to Ghana to bury my grandmother and got the call from Kwasi Fordjour to assist in directing visuals for Black Is King. I truly hope this moment honors her as an ancestor and she continues to guide me. Thank you @Beyonce for creating the vision. pic.twitter.com/IvU6F5pTBj
Beyonce would prolly kill me for I have yet to watch “Black Is King” on my Disney Plus app! I will definitely watch it once I get settled. She is one of the greatest performers in my lifetime and generation. Now with this deluxe of the Lion King I get to hear the songs I grew to love yet over again and again LOL
if you love the sounds of old Motown Records you will definitely love this project. Lord Finesse made sure to give an upbeat and up to date version of your favorite classics that will set you up with a perfect vibe.
He’s one of the dopest rappers to come out of LA but not too many people are familiar with him as of yet! He stays very consistent and at times will include unexpected features from artist that you never thought knew of him, and thats exactly how I got to know of his music. This project is nothing new…just like his other work this right here will be on repeat!!
DA GREAT APE – STR8DROP
If @yeah_Tyler stamps it, it’s sanctioned.#NowPlaying "Quarter Brick (feat. Rick Ross)" by Da Great Ape, Rick Ross on @TIDAL
