E.Will and @FenkellPayroll reflect on the past in “Real Life”
When Payroll Giovanni comes into the fold, the OG’s presence affects everyone around him. Life lessons are his game, and he’s been giving away game for free long before Jay-Z’s 4:44 tried to package similar lessons for $9.99. It appears that his proximity to E.Will influenced the latter’s song choice, because “Real Life” is a Payroll track through and through. But E.Will makes the track his own, channeling Payroll’s educational style with gusto and creating his own unique approach to the formula.
The first thing that the listener notices is E.Will’s confidence. From the first bar, it shines through easily along with his flow that’s a serious contender for flow of the year. Over the Helluva provided production that channels the producers best qualities, E.Will gives you exactly what you’d expect from the song’s title – a tale of real life. It’s a harsh one too, with betrayals galore. Here’s an idea E.Will, make a short film out of it and feature this song on the trailer.
Payroll Giovanni comes in at the tail end of the track with his own reflective look, detailing printing and selling CDs. It’s a throwback to hip-hop’s simpler times; now we just throw songs on streaming services and call it a day. All in all, the track is a killer. By far, one of the best tracks that we’ve heard this year.
The visual is shot by JerryPHD, so the quality, as expected, is out of this world. Quick cuts and creative angles help the visual to transcend standard territory and become something special.

The four years since the last iteration of Camp Flog Gnaw have seen Tyler, The Creator’s trajectory continue to accelerate. In addition to the highly-touted launch of his second brand, GOLF le FLEUR*, and critically-acclaimed headline runs across North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, the multi-talented artist has since won two Grammy Awards for Best Rap Album – one for IGOR and another for his most recent album, CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST. Earlier this year, Tyler released the deluxe edition of CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST: The Estate Sale and was featured in the first episode of the new Hulu docuseries RapCaviar Presents. In step with Tyler’s growth, fans can anticipate Camp Flog Gnaw 2023 to return bigger and better than before, building upon the blueprint established by the eight previous sold-out editions of the festival. The sold-out IGOR and CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST arena tours were highly praised for their production and immersive world-building, and CFG promises to follow suit. Previous lineups over the years have included unforgettable performances by Solange, Kids See Ghosts, SZA, Mac Miller, Snoop Dogg, Ms. Lauryn Hill and A$AP Rocky in addition to Tyler himself. Throughout its history, Camp Flog Gnaw has shaped the landscape for artist-driven festivals. Its focus on hyper-curating talent and the on-site fan experience, both of which are guided by Tyler’s singular vision, continues to set the bar for what a festival can be and, in doing so, has attracted a diverse crowd known for their eccentric and distinctive style, garnering recognition from outlets like Vogue year after year. Further details about the lineup, additional ticket sales, and festival information will be announced soon. |

The album combines the best parts of both talents all in one go and across the seven releases. The experience of the album is dynamic and diversified, some singles powerful and in-your-face, while others are more introspective and telling. For Nahvi and DK, the album hopes to encourage fans to pursue their passions.
“We hope to inspire people to go and be great in whatever they feel passionate about, and love doing it,” said Nahvi.
The album shine with a soulful, r&b influence while carrying a more hopeful, optimistic perspective. The two artists developed a full project based off the friends and family around them who celebrate personal accomplishments.
“‘Go Be Great’ has transformed from a saying between friends and family to then a slogan for my personal brand Small Victories,” DK said. “To finally being a complete body of work. “Go Be Great” means putting your best foot forward, being all that you can in the time that you have . This release is dedicated to my grandfather Edward Loyd , Ball Forever Loyd20.”
Ambitious, magnetic, and appealing, Go Be Great is a must-hear. Along with the new release, it’s the perfect origin point for newfound fans to explore the two stars’ solo efforts, which include new solo collections arriving later this year. The new album follows Nahvi’s 2022 project, Nahvi Made It, which spawned previous hits “Beach Boys,” “Life of the Party,” and “Sunrise.”

Two street icons, Jay Worthy and Roc Marciano, have linked up to announce a joint album Nothing Bigger Than The Program out May 26 and entirely produced by Roc Marciano. Today, they share the first single “Underground Legend” featuring a guest verse from none other than the legendary Bun B. The music video shows the guys in Texas riding in luxury cars which is the scene for one of UGK’s early hit records.
Jay Worthy has been a streep rap legend for many years but his 2 P’z In A Pod joint album with Larry June helped propel him to critical praise having been named on several year end lists including #12 on Complex. He’s since dropped 2 albums and shows no signs of slowing down. Roc Marciano is a NY hip hop artist and producer who Rolling Stone dubbed ‘the king of the rap underground’.
Stay tuned for more to come from Worthy and Marci on the new album.
