Rod Wave & Lil Durk Drop Visual For “Already Won”

Published

on

In just two short years, Rod Wave evolved from a talented and promising artist into one of rap music’s most-streamed artists and best live performers. On his new video Already Won,” Rod reveals that being a budding superstar is much harder than it looks. Over a piano-led beat from Will-A-Fool, sampling the classic New Edition ballad “Can You Stand The Rain,” the St. Petersburg, FL native trades verses with fellow melodic master Lil Durk, their lyrics proving that the paranoia and pain don’t go away when you attain fame and fortune.

In the video, Durk and Rod belt their verses in a dark room, chronicling the story of an aspiring rapper’s journey from the streets to stardom. Whether they follow Durk’s slow burn or Rod’s meteoric rise, any aspiring artist can learn a valuable lesson from the new video: even after you’ve won, the hard work is far from over. Peaking at #60 on the Billboard Hot 100, “Already Won” is a highlight track from Rod’s SoulFly (Deluxe) album, out now via Alamo Records.

“Already Won” arrives as Rod continues his Rod Wave SoulFly TourPresented by Rolling Loud,” a 35-date tour that criss-crosses the United States. Rod has already performed in front of sold out crowds in major markets like HoustonDallas, and Atlanta, with fans belting each word of his hits and album cuts alike. With sold out dates to come in Chicago, Pittsburgh, Boston, Phoenix, and L.A., and low-ticket warnings in several other cities, Rod is solidifying himself as one of the most electrifying and emotional performers in the hip-hip space

Reaching #3 on the Billboard 200, SoulFly (Deluxe) adds nine new songs to Rod’s chart-topping SoulFly album. Four new songs from the deluxe edition charted on this week’s Billboard Hot 100, led by “Already Won”, and followed by “Get Ready” ft. Kodak Black (#91), “What’s Wrong” (#93), and single “Time Heals” (#99), which has over 6 million views on its music video. 

SoulFly made a splash on the Billboard 200 chart upon its original release in March, generating over 130k sales-equivalent units in its first week and debuting at #1. 14 of the album’s original 19 tracks charted on the Billboard Hot 100, with two songs, “Tombstone” and the Platinum-certified “Street Runner,” peaking in the top 20. His highest-charting single to date, which peaked at #11 on the Hot 100, “Tombstone” reached the #1 spot on urban radio, marking Rod’s third airplay #1 following 2019’s “Heart On Ice” and 2020’s “Rags2Riches.” Recently certified GoldSoulFly helped Rod become the RIAA’s most-certified artist of Q1 2021.

Kapri Releases New Music Video “Light Skin Shohei”

Published

on

“Light Skin Shohei” by Kapri is an undeniable West Coast anthem that resonates with anyone who’s ever had to prove themselves in the face of doubt. Representing his hometown of Santa Ana, California, Kapri channels the essence of the West Coast sound with a bouncy, dark beat crafted by the talented producer FORTWOE. The track is an energetic declaration of self-confidence, with Kapri effortlessly laying down his message of resilience over the heavy, thumping bass and smooth yet sinister instrumentals.

From the moment the beat drops, you know you’re in for something special. FORTWOE’s production is a perfect blend of dark and bouncy, giving the track that signature West Coast feel while providing the perfect backdrop for Kapri’s assertive and charismatic delivery. The beat feels like it could knock in any late-night ride down the Pacific Coast Highway—smooth, confident, and ready to turn heads.

Lyrically, “Light Skin Shohei” is about overcoming obstacles and silencing critics. The song speaks to anyone who has been doubted or overlooked, providing an anthem of empowerment. Kapri’s confident, laid-back flow ensures the message hits home: rise above the negativity and show the world what you’re capable of. The reference to “Light Skin Shohei” even adds an extra layer of personality to the song, referencing the celebrated baseball player Shohei Ohtani and drawing a clever comparison to Kapri’s own rise, much like the athlete’s dominance in his field.

The way Kapri delivers his bars—cool, collected, yet forceful—brings out the track’s anthem-like quality. His cadence locks into FORTWOE’s beat, creating a synergy that feels both personal and universal, making it easy for listeners from all walks of life to vibe with the sentiment of success and determination.

In all, “Light Skin Shohei” is more than just a bouncy West Coast banger; it’s a powerful statement about pushing through adversity and asserting one’s place. Whether you’re cruising through the streets or listening to it at full volume to hype yourself up, this track does more than just entertain—it empowers. With Kapri at the forefront, and FORTWOE behind the boards, “Light Skin Shohei” is a track that’ll resonate for a long time to come.
