Millyz shares “Tonight” (Extended Version) [“Stan” – Eminem flip] – ‘Blanco 6’ 

Published

on

Massachusetts Hip-Hop vet Millyz has just shared “Tonight” (Extended Version) following the release of his new album Blanco 6. On the single, Millyz reimagines the iconic Eminem track “Stan”, interpolating the original 1998 sample “Thank You” by Dido, to create something uniquely his own. The tone of the single is harrowing and somber as he reminisces on the memories of his fallen friends, including fellow MA rapper Roc Dukati who was chillingly killed right in front of him at a club early in Millyz’s career, and reflects on the risks that come with his fast-paced lifestyle. Earlier this month, the usage of the “Stan” sample resulted in some online chatter between Millyz and Slim Jxmmi of Rae Sremmurd, with the group using the same flip for a track off their new LP. Across the new album, Millyz is sharpening his skills, honing in on his dedication to his craft, and exploring fresh sounds as he links up with everyone from Tri-State standouts Albee Al & Leaf Ward on “Risk Takers” (which earned a co-sign from Kodak Black earlier this year), the iconic Jamaican producer Rvssian on the previously released single “YOYO”, and his tried-and-true collaborators G Herbo and Dave East. As a testament to Millyz’s growing popularity and respect in the culture, his long-time mentor Jadakiss recently gifted him a new iced-out pendant, and Boston Celtics all-star Jayson Tatum gave him his game worn-jersey at The Garden while he was with Gillie Da Kid. Serving as the sixth installment in his iconic Blanco album series, Millyz continues to showcase his effortless blend of candid storytelling and his cutthroat bars on the new album. Backed by five successful singles including “Over”“Tonight”“Moon Roof” featuring Jadakiss“Risk Takers” (feat. Albee Al & Leaf Ward) and the energetic “YOYO”, the arrival of Blanco 6 cements Millyz’s legacy while simultaneously showcasing his various sides as an emcee.

Millyz lit the internet on fire all of last year with standout freestyles on L.A. LeakersThe Come Up Show, and most recently Fire In The Booth. In 2020, things started to really heat up for him with the release of his last project Blanco 4. The album had a string of successful singles including “Emotions” featuring G Herbo“Benny Blanco” alongside expert bar spitter Benny The Butcher & “Hopeless” with Jadakiss. Leading up to the release of 2022’s Blanco 5Millyz released the singles “Ashes In The Maybach” featuring Mozzy“Love/Hate” (feat. Gio Dee) and “Closure”. Now, with the release of Blanco 6Millyz has finally earned his stripes after a decade of grinding it out in the trenches and independently releasing dozens of mixtapes and fiery freestyles, and never concerning himself with the superficiality of the limelight.

Published

on

Isaiah Rashad joins Windy City wordsmith Kembe X for his Hippie Sabotage produced cut “Rolling Stoned.” A thought-provoking masterpiece that cleverly disguises its depth with wordplay and ethereal Alternative Hip-Hop instrumentation, “Rolling Stoned” invites listeners to embark on a journey of hidden meanings and insights. Serving as yet another teaser to the Top Dawg Entertainment affiliate’s forthcoming ‘Sleep Paralysis’ project, it may initially appear as brash rap but the record unfurls into a profound exploration of personal growth, dreams, and self-discovery.

“When we made this song in September 2021 it felt like a reunion and an opportunity to show Hippie Sabotage, I’m not the same person who moved from Chicago to LA and crashed on their couch. It was a chance to demonstrate my newfound confidence in my creative abilities and a willingness to adopt a fresh approach to music. It’s not a reinvention of my artistry, but a shedding of old skin and a dreamy exploration of a new version of myself, deeply connected to my psychedelic discoveries,” shares the Chicago native in a press statement when asked about his “Pole Vaulting” follow-up.

Known for his work with artists such as REASON, Guapdad4000, Jay Rock, and Ab-Soul, Kembe X stands as a beacon of innovation in a musical landscape often mired in conformity. His music, with over 10M+ UGC views on TikTok and 5M+ views on YouTube, has ignited a cultural wave, resonating across platforms. Accumulating a staggering 30M+ Spotify streams, Kembe X’s tracks encapsulate the essence of his artistry.

Beyond mere numbers, Kembe X’s compositions, from the introspective depths of “Voices” and “Cozy Forever” to the bluesy contemplation of “Body Language” and “Anyway,” paint a poignant picture of battling depression, touching hearts and minds. His magnetic stage presence has left an indelible mark, from headlining the Hippie Sabotage Tour in 2016 to sharing the stage in the ScHoolboy Q CrasHtalk Tour in 2019, not to mention legendary performances at Rolling Loud Miami from 2014 to 2017 and Rolling Loud Los Angeles 2017, solidifying his status as a festival favorite.
