In honor of what would have been his 37th birthday, Young Dolph’s  label Paper Route Empire has released his first posthumous single, “Hall of Fame.”

Young Dolph was shot and killed in his hometown of Memphis in November 2021, Before his death, Young Dolph had already secured a legacy as an independent rapper who became one of the city’s biggest recent breakthroughs.
The song follows the rapper’s first posthumous feature, on Gucci Mane’s “Blood All on It,” from earlier this year and a Paper Route Empire compilation Long Live Dolph compilation featuring tributes from his labelmates, including Key Glock, Jay Fizzle, and Big Moochie Grape released in January.
The Bandplay-produced track finds Dolph at his best, flexing while reflecting on his tireless grind and the legacy he left behind. Compares his hustle to the drug kingpin Frank Matthews and also boasts about meetings with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation (even shooting his shot at a verse with Jay) and earning his first million, over a victorious, strings-laden beat.

“When I was 16, I said ‘It ain’t even about me no more’ / This PRE on my chest, it’s a multi-million dollar logo,”he raps, “You can walk in any trap and I bet they know my name / Frank Matthews of the South, put me in the hall of fame…”

Dolph’s girlfriend, Mia Jaye, also shared a touching tribute to the father of her two children, writing, “Happy Heavenly Birthday My Love.”

Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith the two men in connection with his murder, outside a Memphis Cookie store, have been charged with first-degree murder in the shooting, along with attempted murder for shooting at Dolph’s brother as well. Both pleaded not guilty.

After last Friday’s, release of a collaborative mixtape with Rich The Kid ‘Trust Fund Babies’, Mr. Carter surprises fans by releasing a new song to streaming services.“Ya Dig” is a slick record that finds Lil Wayne feeling braggadocious as he flexes his status over a distorted, soulful sample.

“Ya Dig” was co-produced by STREETRUNNER and Tarik Azzouz and features a sample of Margie Joseph’s “Stop! In the Name of Love,” which Wayne also sampled on “Gossip” off his 2007 EP The Leak. Word has it “Ya Dig” is a song from the vault that dates back to his Tha Carter III days. It will be featured on the forthcoming “Tha Carter Singles Collection” 7” vinyl box set.

“Weezy, newborn baby, and it’s my party/ And I’m kicking like a horse on the stick-shift Ferrari/ Like new cocaine, bright yellow dope/ Bright red flag like a red velvet rope/ I’m open for criticism/ But really, is it any room for criticism,” Wayne raps.

According to Lil Wayne HQ, the song was recorded in late 2007 or early 2008, but it’s unclear why it wasn’t released until now. It’s not clear where the fansite, got the information from about its alleged recording timeline. There has been no official confirmation. It hears the rapper spit eloquently in the midst of what Stereogum noted was his “peak mixtape era”.

Check out the song below, Weezy has even more music on the way including I Am Not A Human Being III and ColleGrove 2 with 2 Chainz.

After a seven-year hiatus, Kelis returns with a new single “Midnight Snack.” The Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter takes it back to her Kaleidoscope days as she serves up a tasty after-hours jam. Featuring production from UK group The FaNaTiX and Kelis singing to her lover about some late-night affection.

“Guilty pleasures, I just can’t deny / I’m greedy and I don’t care,” she sings on the irresistible hook.

This past January, she did provide an assist on newcomer Ashnikko’s DEMIDEVIL standout “Deal With It.” “Midnight Snacks” also sees an accompanying visual directed by photographer/director Adrienne Raquel, giving off seductive vibes while various references to food appear throughout. The Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef is surrounded by sweet treats in a retro dreamscape, “inspired by the 1990s and paired with the glamour of the 1970s.” Even those it’s been nearly a decade since Tasty and its breakout hit “Milkshake,” it’s clear that the veteran songstress remains a master of mixing the culinary with the intimate.
