Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

Kehlani blessed us this week with a new release “unmixed unmastered,” fresh from a studio session.

The singer shared a link to the track along with a nod to production duo The Rascals and producer Antonio Dixon.

The new single comes after Kehlani’s recent collab with Teyana Taylor, “Morning.” Earlier this year, the singer also released EP While We Wait.

Queen & Slim

The Queen & Slim soundtrack delivered another hit. “Yo Love,” from Vince Staples, 6LACK, and Mereba, follows up EARTHGANG and Tiana Major9’s “Collide.” “Yo Love” is a guitar-tinged rap track that perfectly fits the style of the film, out in theaters this Thanksgiving.

DAWN taps Trakgirl for another collaboration, this time slowing things down for “Easy.”

The track comes courtesy of Adult Swim’s Singles series, which features a new song from a different every Monday. DAWN is also slated to perform at the Adult Swim Festival on Friday.

Khalid

Khalid is gearing up to make his way through New Zealand and Australia as he embarks on the next half of his Free Spirit tour. And while on the road this week, the singer shared new track, “Up All Night.”

“‘Up All Night’ is really special to me and I’m so excited that I am able to share it with my fans so quickly,” he said in a statement. “I’ve been touring the world, and interacting with my fans each night has been really inspiring. I’m working hard on some more new music to share with you guys soon!”

Sumney is expected to release his upcoming album, græ, in two parts. The first half of the double album will arrive in February, with the other half scheduled to drop in May.
