Upon going live, it already vaulted to Top 5 on the iTunes Overall Top Albums Chart and #1 on the Hip-Hop/Rap Chart in addition to trending worldwide. Get it HERE. Throughout the week, he has amplified anticipation with a series of viral Instagram posts. He teased the video for “Thankful Thankful” [feat. Lil Wayne & Jeremih] and racked up 600K-plus views, while his post of the official billboard generated 1 million-plus views in under a day! The streets and the culture have been waiting for this one with equal excitement, so he had to go as big as possible on release day (would you expect anything less though?). This morning, he unleashed what might be his biggest and boldest video yet for the new single “Sorry Not Sorry” featuring guests JAY-Z, Nas, James Fauntleroy & Harmonies by the Hive. The song unites New York kings JAY-Z and Nas as they lock into a lyrical crossfire of historic “Song Cry” before James Fauntleroy drops a melodic and unforgettable hook. Khaled and Co-Executive Producers (his sons) Asahd Tuck Khaled and Aalam Tuck Khaled assembled a downright unbelievable tracklisting. The album boasts soon-to-be fan favorites “Just Be” [feat. Justin Timberlake], “We Going Crazy” [feat. H.E.R. & Migos], “I Did It” [feat. Post Malone, Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Baby & DaBaby], and “Let It Go” [feat. Justin Bieber & 21 Savage], among others. Not to mention, it includes the double-platinum “POPSTAR” [feat. Drake] and platinum “GREECE” [feat. Drake]. Check out the full tracklisting below. The Anthem King has returned with an album that shares his birth name and represents him to his core—KHALED KHALED. He’s still the best… ABOUT DJ KHALED: For over two decades, the very mention of DJ Khaled has implied an elevated level of musical greatness, entrepreneurial excellence, and cultural impact. You’ve heard him across a GRAMMY® Award-winning multiplatinum catalog, seen him in blockbusters such as Bad Boys For Life, caught him on the cover of Rolling Stone, watched him on numerous television programs, and felt his presence from the streets all the way up to the Barack Obama White House. He has achieved dozens of multiplatinum and gold certifications, including the sextuple-platinum Billboard Hot 100 #1 “I’m The One” [feat. Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance the Rapper, & Lil Wayne], quadruple-platinum “Wild Thoughts” [feat. Rihanna & Bryson Tiller], and double-platinum “No Brainer” [feat. Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper, & Quavo]. The latter propelled his 2019 album, Father of Asahd [We The Best Music Group/Epic Records], to the top of the charts. Not only did it garner a platinum certification, but it also became his third consecutive Top 2 debut on the Billboard Top 200 and emerged as the “#1 Most-Streamed Record” upon release. To date, he has moved 20 million singles and 6 million albums in addition to gathering 4 billion-plus streams. Not to mention, he launched We The Best Music Group—a record label, management, publishing, and production company and in-demand studio. As a committed philanthropist, he founded his 501(c)3 organization The We The Best Foundation. It uplifts individuals throughout underserved communities across the United States and supports various non-profits. He has supported the fight against COVID-19., U2 frontman Bono recruited him as the first social media ambassador for Project Red, and he serves as the national spokesperson for Get Schooled. Now, the power of this legacy defines his thirteenth full-length album—which bears his birth name—Khaled Khaled [We The Best Music Group/Epic Records], preceded by two chart-busting bangers alongside frequent collaborator Drake, namely “POPSTAR” and “GREECE.” TRACKLISTING 1. “Thankful” [feat.

The live track is also available now to stream on all DSPs here.

Pre-orders for the three-disc deluxe version of last year’s self-titled album are available now. The set features the critically acclaimed 2020 release with two bonus tracks and a live version of the album, along with a DVD featuring the first of LAMB OF GOD‘s two ultra-successful livestream events from the fall. In addition to performing Lamb Of God in its entirety, the performance features an encore of four songs including “Ruin,” “Contractor,” “512,” and the debut live performance of “The Death Of Us,” a new song the band wrote and recorded in quarantine for the Bill & Ted Face The Music movie and soundtrack. The DVD also includes a new director’s cut with bonus material. Watch the trailer for the deluxe package now at https://youtu.be/ihoFtYAfgEc. Digital copies will contain only Disc 1 and Disc 2.

The first single from Lamb Of God (Deluxe Version), “Ghost Shaped People,” has already received a response equal to the fervent reception the original release received last June, holding at number one on the Metal Contraband metal radio chart for four weeks in a row. Lamb Of God, the quintet’s first new album in five years, was met with universal acclaim upon release – not only among major rock journalists, but with all strata of metal fans around the world. But critics, media and the industry aside, perhaps the most telling statistic is the year-end US Metal Radio chart, where the new album dominated at #1 by a massive margin (over 2,000 more spins than the album at #2). Lamb Of God spent nine weeks in the #1 spot and never left the top 10 since debuting on the chart in February. Metal Radio is the lifeblood of the US metal world, largely staffed by college students and regional tastemakers, playing the music that they know their local metal fans want to hear. LAMB OF GOD’s self- titled album reached the coveted #1 spot on Consequence of Sound’s Top 30 Metal + Hard Rock Albums of 2020, stating, “Along with bringing in the New Wave of American Heavy Metal, LAMB OF GOD have been one of music’s most important acts over the past 20 years. From their phenomenal instrumentation to the potency of their sociopolitical lyricism, LAMB OF GOD remain titans of the genre, continuing to craft remarkable works of thrilling and captivating adrenaline… also proves to be a profound work of heavy metal… perhaps the most important metal album of 2020. It’s not only the album of LAMB OF GOD’s career, but the heavy album of the year.” At iTunes, LAMB OF GOD has landed at number one on the Overall, Rock and Metal iTunes album chart upon release. LAMB OF GOD eagerly awaits their return to the road to support Lamb of God. Their North American co-headline tour with Megadeth and support from Trivium and In Flames has been rescheduled to begin in July 2021 and their headline tour in the UK and co-headline tour with Kreator in Europe will take place in November and December 2021. Tickets for both tours are on-sale at lamb-of-god.com/tour. “LAMB OF GOD deliver the album of their career with self-titled effort…This album isn’t just an awesome release from LAMB OF GOD, but a perfect record to unite metalheads as one.” – Consequence of Sound “There is a world-weary pessimism that permeates right to the bones of LAMB OF GOD’s breathtaking eight LP.” – Kerrang! “The band has been vocal about the good place it’s in right now, and it shows in these songs.” – Metal Injection “LAMB OF GOD know, after all, that their true essence is a brutish machismo and that they are a vehicle for total catharsis.” – Rolling Stone “This is a record that’s the most authentic version of the band LAMB OF GOD want to be.” – NME “The Virginian metal stalwarts’ self-titled album – their first release with Adler’s full-time replacement Art Cruz – boasts all the neck-snapping technical riffage and burly roars we’ve come to love,” – Revolver’s 25 Best Albums of 2020.

Watch the video for “Self Destructor” HERE. NIRATIAS is an acronym for Nothing Is Real and This Is a Simulation, and it represents the band at their dimension-blurring best, their most pummeling, and most provocative. The body of work twists and turns through crushing guitars and haunting melodies like a cosmically heavy roller coaster at the edge of existence. The brother duo of Pete and Sam Loeffler teamed up once again with longtime producer Joe Barresi, writing and recording throughout 2019 and 2020. The results are an intriguing and inimitable body of work, with themes that reveal themselves throughout the album’s 13 songs. The album artwork is by Boris Vallejo.

Produced by the legendary Mike Dean [Travis Scott, Kanye West], the track hinges on stark piano as the vocals immediately draw the spotlight. Uplifted by soft strings, his show-stopping voice alternates between intimate verses and a seismic refrain with sweeping cinematic scope. It illustrates his evolution as a songwriter, vocalist, and artist, bringing new power to the forefront of his sound. The song, AJ explains, is about the beginning of his career when he first arrived in Los Angeles to chase his dreams, and a toxic situation he found himself in while a member of the content collective Team 10. “Once the cameras turned on, the dynamic changed. Everyone was all of a sudden like, ‘Oh, I love you’. When the cameras shut off, nobody talked to one another. Everybody was staring at a phone. I was young, so it was weird for me to understand. The only thing that saved me was music. Once again, it took me away—just like it did back in my hometown of Belleville, IL.” AJ begins the visual at the piano before we voyeuristically follow him on various analog televisions. Evoking a darker side of reality, it depicts the tension of his relationship and ensuing loneliness intercut with entrancing performance vignettes. “CAMERAS ON” ignites his next chapter, paving the way for his full-length debut album, Skyview, due this year and executive produced by Mike Dean. Recently, AJ joined forces with Cheat Codes for the collaborative bop “Hate You + Love You.” It has already racked up 5.1 million Spotify streams and counting. Wrapping up 2020, he also collaborated with names like Elle Henderson, Steve Aoki, Captain Cuts, and more.

The seven-track project sees these three powerhouses light up the West Coast and ignite a new era of California hip-hop in the process. On the first track “OP Vibes,” the YG & D3 tear through anxious 808s with tenacious bars and an ominous refrain. Bass-y piano bolts down D3’s bullet-riddled “Yellow Tape” [feat. DDG] before another hard-hitting hook, while airy guitar wraps around “Roxanne.” Everything culminates on the punchy anthem “My Bruddas” where D3 and YG link with Tay2Xs for one last slick salvo. Check out the full tracklisting below. 4Hunnid recently paved the way for the Gang Affiliated EP with the bilingual banger “Bailar” by YG and Day Sulan.

Tay2X] ABOUT DAY SULAN: Struggle shapes us. Practically forged in fire, Day Sulan rose up from Compton with a fierce, focused, and furious style of her own. Of African-American and Vietnamese descent, she endured a broken home and the trials and tribulations of the hood in Compton. Stripping in order to get by, multi platinum YG rapper and L.A. luminary actually found her at Crazy Girls during early 2019.

Following singles, “Why Aren’t We Having Sex?”, “Getting Good” and “Starry Eyed”, “JOSIE” is yet another formidable addition to her musical arsenal – a soaring and anthemic ballad, albeit one underscored by dark lyrics about a friendship gone sour. Once again, Liza flexes her distinctively genre-bending style and taste, with her powerful vocals and wildly infectious take on modern pop further cementing her as one to watch this year. Liza further explains, “JOSIE was born out of a conversation in the car on the way to the studio. I was recounting a story about some recent drama in my relationship regarding an ex of my partners. I was telling my friends & co writers Ali Tamposi & Paul Phamous that ‘Josie ‘ was back in town… the rest is history” “JOSIE” also comes accompanied by a gorgeously widescreen video directed by Aisha Schliessler and shot, appropriately, in one seamless take at the Sunset Hollywood Villa – a staple Bond movie location. At once sweet, strange and oh so slightly sinister – that is Liza Owen to a tee. WATCH “JOSIE” VIDEO HERE STREAM “JOSIE” HERE RECENT PRAISE FOR LIZA OWEN: “With darkly glamorous pop-led soundscapes, singer-songwriter Liza Owen has certainly proven that she is an artist to keep an eye on…” – Notion “Her infectious singles Starry Eyed and Getting Good prove she’s ready to make it big over the next 12 months.” – Daily Star, Ones to Watch 2021 New single ‘Starry Eyed’ takes her music in a potent direction, and it’s the sound of someone coming full circle, realising their ambitions in the process. – CLASH Liza spins pop upside down and all around, with defiantly unfiltered lyrics, undeniable melodies and unapologetic grit. Originally breaking into the business writing songs for the likes of Selena Gomez, BTS and Carly Rae Jepsen, this past year she has quietly been putting her very own inimitable stamp on music. Owen has all the makings of a smart and deliciously subversive new star, one who stubbornly refuses to sand down her rough edges or present anything less than an image that is 100% authentic.

BAHARI RELEASES NEW SINGLES “BIPOLAR” AND “JACKIE KENNEDY” WATCH THE OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO FOR “BIPOLAR” HERE (Get artwork and press photos HERE) (March 5, 2021 – Los Angeles, CA) – Today, […] Read More News BAHARI RELEASES NEW SINGLES “BIPOLAR” AND “JACKIE KENNEDY” * * * WATCH THE OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO FOR “BIPOLAR” HERE (Get artwork and press photos HERE) (March 5, 2021 – Los Angeles, CA) – Today, rising alt-pop duo Bahari return with two new singles entitled “Bipolar” and “Jackie Kennedy.” Get “Bipolar” HERE and “Jackie Kennedy” HERE via Bahari Music, LLC/Epic Records and watch the official music video for “Bipolar” HERE. Both songs embrace the duo’s unique talent in making the extremely personal universal. “Bipolar” bottles the ups and downs of a manic relationship into a piano-laden, emotional meditation. Strains of soft keys echo beneath a lyrical push-and-pull punctuated by the reprise, “Sometimes, I love you. Sometimes, I hate you.” The glitchy bridge breaks underneath the weight of one resounding confession, “I’m fucking crazy for you.” The accompanying music video juxtaposes the bliss of two couples with relationship tension and strife. It depicts the girls—Ruby Carr and Natalia Panzarella—in the throes of this tumult with claustrophobic closeups and intense vignettes. S Says Ruby, the song “represents the polarizing ups and downs of a relationship. The feelings of being everything to someone, yet nothing at all. This song highlights the push and pull and emotional rollercoaster of being in love. How beautiful it can be but also how hard it is. It’s about our first real love that each of us experienced, and how challenging it can be trying to maintain a healthy relationship whilst struggling with our own mental health, and how deeply ones mental health can affect a relationship. It’s about that burning passion, high highs and lowest of lows.” Meanwhile, “Jackie Kennedy” sees the girls open up like never before. Written in a ten-minute rush of inspiration, Natalia details the tragic loss of a significant other between stark piano and strings. It exhibits empathy for First Lady Jackie Kennedy with the tear-filled chorus, “We lost a lifetime you and I.” On “Jackie Kennedy,” Natalia says, it “was a song that came out of one of the hardest times of my life. I had just lost someone very suddenly that I was deeply in love with and it was the first time I had someone close to me pass. It was so isolating because of all of the emotions I was feeling that I never really processed the grief until I wrote this song a few years later. I never had any intention of this song leaving my bedroom, but after realizing it helped me I can only hope it can at least be a moment of feeling that someone understands. Right now more than ever we have to check in on each other and be there for one another. It’s okay to feel sad, but it’s really fucking scary feeling alone.” Stay tuned for the premiere of the music video, coming later this month. These songs follow up last year’s “Waking Up The Neighbors” and “Savage” remix featuring rapper BIA. Fall into Bahari’s embrace now. Be on the lookout for more music soon. Bahari Management: William Derella About Bahari: Every so often, two separate journeys collide to form the perfect union in just the right place at just the right time. Bahari blossom from a similar confluence of circumstances. Singer and keyboardist Ruby Carrhails from the tiny island of Lamu off the coast of Kenya, while singer and bassist Natalia Panzarella was born in Nashville but grew up in Southern California. Each of their experiences shapes a dynamic, diverse, and dark take on alternative pop. Generating over 650 million streams and receiving acclaim from Ladygunn, Nylon, Billboard, Ones To Watch, and more, the Los Angeles-based duo bring a shared vision to life. After meeting at a songwriting session at 16-years-old, the girls formed a lifelong bond. Shortly after, Bahari initially made waves with “Wild Ones,” which generated close to 40 million Spotify streams. They maintained a consistent pace with the Dancing on the Sun EP [2016] and singles “Get Together” and “Fucked Up.” Along the way, they supported Selena Gomez and Birdy on tour and teamed up with Zedd, ILLENIUM and Grey for collaborations. After quietly grinding, Bahari earned a viral hit with 2018’s “Savage,” which took on a second life in 2020 with an official remix featuring BIA. Not has did the song generate over 100 million total streams, but the original version also went Gold. Last year, the duo also contributed to the To All The Boys: P.S. I Still Love You Original Soundtrack. Now in partnership with Epic Records, the pair are gearing up for even more new music coming soon.

It is available HERE. Upon going live, it catapulted to #1 on the iTunes Rock Albums Chart, and #2 on the overall Albums Chart. Prior to its arrival, the band unloaded a salvo of singles, all released to acclaim. Lead single “Self Destructor” has already eclipsed close to 5 million streams globally and over 1 million YouTube views on the music video. After emerging as the “#1 Most Added Song,” it just broke into the Top 3 at Active Rock, adding to their robust catalogue of hits. Closing in on over 2 million streams, “Peach” garnered critical acclaim right out of the gate. Consequence of Sound praised it as “a grand musical statement from Chevelle.” Meanwhile, “Remember When” also continues to gain traction with Loudwire complimenting the track, noting it’s “spiraling guitar line and propulsive beats,” along with Pete’s “pained and strained emotional vocal.” NIRATIAS is an acronym for Nothing Is Real and This Is a Simulation, and it represents the band at their dimension-blurring best. The body of work twists and turns through crushing guitars and haunting melodies like a cosmically heavy roller coaster at the edge of existence. The instrumental opener “Verruckt” sets the tone with its gnashing distortion and laser-precise groove. “So Long, Mother Earth”doubles as a eulogy for our planet carried by an overpowering scream and searing solo. Clocking in at almost six minutes, “Ghost and Razor” culminates on one final distorted exorcism before a pensive spoken word echoes barely above a whisper on “Lost In Digital Woods.” NIRATIAS stands out as the band’s most pummeling and provocative record yet. Teaming with longtime producer Joe Barresi, Chevelle recorded throughout 2019 and 2020 and pieced together an intriguing and inimitable body of work, with themes that will reveal themselves soon. The album artwork is by Boris Vallejo. The famed and award-winning artist is responsible for the posters used for films like Knightridersand National Lampoon’s Vacation, as well as iconic 70’s and 80’s science fiction novel covers and magazines (such as Heavy Metal). Throughout their career, Chevelle have transformed rock music as tried-and-true outliers.

Candid, audacious and sonically eclectic, Life Support is a strong personal and artistic statement from a self-made star who refuses to play by pop’s usual rules. It sees Madison where she thrives – commanding creative control through writing her own songs, producing and creating her own visuals. Expressing and inspiring a rollercoaster of emotionsthrough spellbinding vocals over a broad-ranging sound-bed reflective of Madison’s own diverse musical tastes, Life Support is experimental, honest and ardent. The album explores mental health, the dizzying highs and rock-bottom lows of toxic relationships and the atypical life that Madison has led since famously being discovered on YouTube at age 12. “Writing songs is like therapy for me.” says Madison. “That’s why this album is called Life Support. It helped me get rid of the darkness and see the light. My inspirations sonically are really diverse. I guess I’m not an easy artist to pigeonhole, and a lot of these songs are like nothing I’ve ever attempted before. All of me is laid bare on this album; it’s been a really fulfilling experience to create something that feels so true to myself. Making music taught me a safe way of being vulnerable. It forced me to put my feelings into words, to hold a mirror up to myself and translate that into something tangible. There was a time in my life where the promise of going to the studio was the only thing getting me out of bed in the morning. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s my lifeline. I can put something into a song and then let it go, send it out into the world. When fans tell me I’ve put a voice to something they’ve been feeling, it’s as affirming for me as it is for them.” Alongside previously released singles “Good In Goodbye”, “Selfish”, “Baby” and “BOYSHIT” (which have a combined stream count of over 500 million), Life Support highlights includethe melodramatic, shape-shifting “Default”; the otherworldly “Homesick” with its Rick and Morty sample (an homage to Madison’s favorite TV show); The Matrix-inspired “Follow The White Rabbit” set to throbbing bass, tolling bells and twanging guitar; and the country-tinged album closer “Everything Happens For A Reason” – a last look back before moving on. Madison will be performing “BOYSHIT” on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on March 1st. Madison will perform the album in full for the first time at Madison Beer Presents: LIFE SUPPORT IN CONCERT – a fully stylized, globally streamed concert which Madison has developed in partnership with Headliner. The innovative concert will take place at www.headliner.live on March 6th and 7thacross five time zones (see below for full schedule). Tickets are available to purchase now here.

Don’t just stand there to stand there!” The /singer created a viral frenzy for her 2019 style anthem, “Runway.” After releasing a project independently and inking a deal with Epic Records, she is inevitably poised to be one of Hip-Hop’s most anticipated voices of the new decade. “I’m a threat!” she promises.Born and raised in Northern California, music offered a refuge from a tragic home life.
