The Baton Rouge rapper known as DB Kash, releases his latest single under the UMG umbrella! titled “Child Support.” The new single is that song you think of when you go to the club to blow off steam. Why might you ask? The song name is nothing short of a play on words but there is a meaning behind it. “Child Support” is a strip club anthem because it’s a distraction from reality. Imagine all the reasons as to why one can’t handle the responsibility of paying child support, but what if the man had the time to think before he made the choice to go that far?

In the track itself, DB Kash raps luring cadences of words that tell a story of why and how the club goer is distracted by what’s in front of him instead of the reality of the outcome. Stuck between a rock and a hard place is the definition of the song, and like most who find themselves on the end of paying out child support the consequences become dire.

Today, rising star Yung Pooda releases the visual presentation to his new hit “Chicken N Grits” featuring Dreamdoll. In preparation for an anticipated 2021 album, Pooda plays an ambitious cook in the Mokablu-directed video with dreams of leveling up but first, must deal with refund-demanding disgruntle customers. At the home of the big booty, Pooda is surrounded by voluptuous co-workers but comes face-to-face with the face of the moniker in an extremely angry Dreamdoll, who comes in barking orders, demanding compensation, taking the crown of Miss Big Booty Chick.

The chemistry between Pooda and Dreamdoll is electric. Fans will be obsessed with the collaboration and demand more between the two in the near future — possibly a collaboration album. Yung Pooda released three new singles in 2020, including “Chicken N Grits.” All in preparation of a full-length album, currently in the works, expected for a Summer 2021 release. “Chicken N Grits” is produced by Mid Jordan.

After the view, continue following Yung Pooda daily on Instagram. “Chicken N Grits” is available now via 10 Records/EMPIRE. Dreamdoll appears on the song via District 18.

It’s a Texas thing. Highly-regarded Dallas recording artist Rakim Al-Jabbaar taps the Houston gatekeeper, Bun B, 1/2 of the legendary duo UGK, for a mainstream breakthrough. Their collaboration, “Picture Me Rollin,” using slick-tongued, antagonistic and assertive verses, the well-respected lyricists represent the adored unique hustler’s mentality that’s made Texas hip-hop the polarizing entity it is today. For the Huey Rawls-directed visual, Bun and Rakim take a ride through the Triple D to show the fans what it took to get the residuals, resonating in the extravagant clothes, jewelry and cars.

Bun B’s involvement on the single is a personal highlight for the ascending Rakim Al-Jabbaar, an artist who has idolized the Trill creator since the beginning of his career. On the dream collaboration, next to his idol, Rakim challenged himself to deliver his best verse yet.

“Working with Bun B was more than a dream come true,” Rakim shares in a press release. “This was the toughest song for me to complete to what I consider perfection. So much so that I didn’t get the final version until 6:45 am the morning of the video shoot. After the shoot, I experienced being high off of life for the first time. The main thing I want people to gain from this video is the value of teamwork. I had just worked with not only a legend, but a man who knew my father and respected him. This video exemplifies the value and benefit of teamwork. Thank you to everyone who contributed in any way.”

The release of new music is a slow burn for a new Rakim Al-Jabbaar album expected in 2021. In 2020, Rakim released two singles with “Dedication” and “95 State of Mind,” and collaborated on new albums by Lamar Adot Thomas, Rob Viktum and Mr Hit Dat. This year, along with “Picture Me Rollin,” Rakim previously released two new songs, “OG Cypher” and “Vodoun Gumbo.”
