Lil Uzi Vert and hip-hop stars have released exciting surprises this week.
The fourth quarter has brought many surprises to the genre as the Grammys approach. As the campaigns begin, hip-hop continues to prove that it doesn’t have an age issue in the music. The new music doesn’t sound aged or outdated.
De La Soul’s Cabin in the Sky anchors this week’s releases with a soulful, bittersweet return, powered by DJ Premier, Pete Rock, and Jake One. The album’s unreleased Trugoy vocals give the project emotional gravity and reaffirm the group’s legacy in modern hip-hop.
Meanwhile, Cardi B’s “ErrTime” keeps her rollout sharp, proving her dominance in a singles-driven era.
