If, like us, J. Cole‘s The Fall-Off has remained heavy in your rotation over the last seven days, then there’s plenty of new music this week that’s about to compete for your attention.
Leading the bill is a previously-unreleased posthumous track from the late, great Nipsey Hussle and his close collaborator Bino Rideaux, the first offering from their newly-announced album Prolific which is due out this summer.
There’s a couple of heavyweight producer-driven collaborations from The Alchemist, who serves up the lead single from his Spiral Staircases project with Larry June and Curren$y (out February 20), and Mike WiLL Made-It, who calls on NBA YoungBoy and Chief Keef to help him build buzz for his upcoming solo LP R3SET (out March 20).
On the albums front, R&B lovers are spoiled for choice as we head into Valentine’s Day weekend thanks to Brent Faiyaz, who drops off the eagerly anticipated Icon, executive produced by none other than Raphael Saadiq, while Jill Scott returns with the star-studded To Whom This May Concern which features JID, Ab-Soul, DJ Premier and others.
