AZ Chike (@AzChike) - "No Rest For The Wicked" (Album)

AZ Chike is proving he's here to stay. AZ Chike is stepping into a bigger spotlight with his new album, No Rest For The Wicked. The 14-track project follows the extra attention Chike received after appearing on Kendrick Lamar's “peekaboo” from GNX. This time, he's surrounded himself with an impressive group of collaborators, including Tyler, The Creator, JMSN, and production from Pharrell Williams, Terrace Martin, and Hit-Boy. Tyler appears twice, including on the previously released “Look Like My Mama,” while “The World Is Ours” also appears later in the project. With some of the West Coast's biggest names now paying attention, No Rest For The Wicked feels like an important opportunity for Chike to turn his recent momentum into something more lasting. More than anything, the album gives him the space to prove that the attention surrounding his GNX appearance wasn't just a moment. - via HotNewHipHop

Soleil (@solefulsoul) - "Rubbish" (Video)

Last month, budding singer-songwriter and DJ Soleil fed listeners' hearts and souls with "Heart Strings." The silky soulful record was met with much acclaim. The songstress continues the momentum with a new R&B/Soul single, "Rubbish." "Rubbish" is stylistically in the same vein as "Heart Strings," but it leans more into Blues and Funk. Soleil's velvety, impassioned vocals are put on full display. "Rubbish" is an empowering breakup anthem that places great emphasis on reclamation, self-love and self-worth. The vulnerable yet brazen song masterfully utilizes introspective/extrospective and tongue-in-cheek lyrics to deliver a palpable, resonating message/story. "The song is about waking up to the lies that we convince ourselves to believe; what begins as a story of unconditional love and loyalty unravels into the realization that empty promises, mixed signals, and emotional neglect were never love at all." Soleil continues: "'Rubbish' captures the moment that self-doubt transforms into self-respect. It is about taking out the emotional trash, reclaiming your voice, and refusing to carry someone else's nonsense any longer." The accompanying music video for "Rubbish" elevates the song's cinematic tone. The visual's golden-hued landscape harmonizes perfectly with the Retro Soul soundscape. The video, directed by illustrious filmmaker Riccardo Solorzano, features Soleil on set and performing while also depicting her on television screens. The mesmerizing, chic music video oozes assured confidence. The sultry, enchanting jam is the product of renowned musical geniuses. Soleil co-wrote "Rubbish" with the song's producer, Dinni Bartholomew. Josh Walton (bass and synth pad), Juan Santiago (keys), Moises Lenare (drums), and Richard Boisrond (guitar) add oomph to the immaculate instrumental. Eminent engineer Paolo Angulo mixed and mastered "Rubbish." "Rubbish" closes out the summer and serves as a prelude to Soleil's forthcoming releases. "Rubbish" rubs listeners the right way.
