Being quarantined is making rap legends as nostalgic and reflective as the rest of us. Big Boi is, of course, one half of OutKast and a core member of the world-changing Atlanta collective the Dungeon Family (named after the crew’s original studio, the Dungeon, located in the basement of DF member Rico Wade’s mother’s house). And […]
More than a year after his fatal shooting, Nipsey Hussle‘s memory lives on.

ADÉ has returned Friday with the official video for “Feel Some Way,” his latest track featuring his fellow DMV artist Wale. The pair previously connected on tracks like “The One Time in Houston,” “Heaven on Earth,” “Smile,” “Illuminate,” and more.

Consequence teamed up with Conway the Machine for “Complex Con” last year, and now the song has received the 88-Keys remix treatment. Flipping the production from the original into something a little more hard-hitting, 88-Keys still manages to keep the throwback vibe of the original intact. “I played the ‘Complex Con’ remix for Kanye and […]
After an extended hiatus, Toronto’s APB (formerly known as The Airplane Boys) are back with a video for their new single “Soundtrack.” The track finds the Scarborough boys back in their pocket, Bon Voyage spitting chilled-out flows and Beck Motley singing a searing hook over a funky, spacey slice of neo-hip-hop. “This a soundtrack when your time is […]
Sylo, as his name suggests, is a bit of an anomaly for a number of reasons. The first and most obvious is that he’s an R&B artist of Asian descent, and while there’s been a few that have risen to prominence in recent years (such as fellow Canadians like anders and Manila Grey), it’s still […]
LNDN DRGS’ Jay Worthy has shared the video for his song “Two4One.” In the visual, we see shots of Worthy rapping in cities across the U.S., including Salt Lake City, Orlando, and Raleigh. “[I] shot this video while on the IGOR Tour around the USA—it was my first big tour around the whole country like that,” […]
Houston’s Alaina Castillo continues to make waves with her new track, appropriately titled “ocean waves.” “‘Ocean waves’ is about giving in to your feelings and letting things go for the sake of your own happiness,” she told Complex about the R&B-infused pop track. “We started with the ocean because its full of mystery and darkness, which I love, so […]
