Directed by Foreign Shooters Productions, surrounded by a trio of expensive vehicles wrapped in links and YNW chains, the Florida native raps about being the center of attention and the forthcoming return to prominence of the YNW collective as the new year swiftly approaches. Bortlen, who is currently on house arrest, shoutouts the currently incarcerated YNW Melly on the song and visual with a photo of the two of them as he raps, “I got perfect timing/Melly be out this year/now that’s perfect timing…”

YNW Melly’s Instagram account supported Bortlen’s new release with a post on Friday (September 29) to the recording artist’s 4.5 million followers that included the following caption:

“Twin just drop 🤞🏾💚🤮 @ynw.bortlen y’all go run it up 🌏 @ynw4lthelabel.”

YNW Melly’s younger brother and popular recording artist YNW BSlime makes a cameo appearances in the new music video and shows the unified front of the YNW Collective who have been enthralled in several high-profile court cases over the last several years. Bortlen and BSlime previously collaborated on last year’s posse track, “The Mob,” also featuring YNW Melly and Trippie Redd. BSlime has generated an undeniable buzz since Melly’s arrest in 2019 with breakout songs such as “Slime Dreams,” “Just Want You,” and “Dying For You” featuring YNW Melly.

“Our Year,” the first track under Bortlen’s new distribution deal with Create Music Group, follows this year’s previously released singles “Stay Dangerous” and “Lil Slimey Dude.” YNW Bortlen recently appeared on the new Beemdagoat track, “Fugazii.” “Our Year” is available on all streaming platforms via YNW4L/Create Music Group.

Latrell De’Sean is unique, catchy, and undeniable as an emerging artist with his raw lyrics over a sing-a-long flow and honest exterior in the fiery new visual of his breakout single “45.” In survival mode, the visual displays imagery of gunshots and chaos that portray the chaotic times society is living in right now. As De’Sean sits with his back to the madness, he raps about the destructive force he possesses as he endures life’s harsh reality on his path to luxury.

He raps: “So I’m toting on this 4-5/Hoping it don’t go down/Hoping that the danger don’t come my way/Cause if it do, then I’m blow mine/Take a Ni**a soul/I’m sorry Father God if I put one away.”

“45” is the perfect origin point for newfound fans of the Dallas native as it showcases his signature southern sound that has already accumulated over 11,000 monthly listeners on Spotify based on his catalog’s biggest songs such as “Heartbreaker’s Diary,” “Love Is War,” and “M.I.A. in Miami.” The new single is a follow-up to De’Sean’s 2022 album, AntiHero.

The latest release promises more new music from Latrell De’Sean on the horizon as his popularity spreads contagiously from local to regional to nationwide. To date, “45” has generated over 153,634 streams on Spotify. Now is the perfect time to hop on the Latrell De’Sean bandwagon.

Chicago rapper Calboy has returned with the song and accompanying video for “Gang Time,” featuring Skilla Baby via his new independent imprint Loyalty & Co. “Gang Time” is available everywhere now, watch the video HERE.

In the visual, we see Calboy and Skilla Baby iced out, flaunting stacks of cash, as they rap back-to-back. “Gang time, I’m on the e-way with this bitch, she throwing up gang signs / Oh this your bitch, she gave me brain, she got a great mind / I’m drippy, drippy, fly as fuck, bitch I got hang time,” Calboy raps.

The Chevy Music-produced “Gang Time” follows Calboy’s last single “On My Own.” His recent music marks his exit from RCA Records and the launch of his independent music career, where he’s carving out his own path with imprint Loyalty N Co.

And he shows no signs of slowing down: in addition to his new album, he’s also working on a TV series. Along the way, he’s collaborated with some of the biggest names in the game, including Lil Wayne and T-Pain, and continues to deliver hit records that resonate with fans around the world.
