[vodpod id=Video.3101482&w=425&h=350&fv=configParams%3Dinstance%3Dnews%26amp%3Bvid%3D486277] Robyn’s already looking into the future.

Ok, let’s get it poppin’. MTV

I guess Curtis is gonna be on a crazy diet during his two month international tour. Starting in May, 50 will be starring in “Things Fall Apart,” a film greenlit by his own Cheetah Vision Films.

Great breakdown of Statik Selektah’s *Round Trip*! Honestly, this 2023 Mass Appeal release is pure boom-bap bliss from start to finish. Statik really outdid himself with those smooth, jazzy sample flips and turntable scratches, creating the exact kind of laid-back, golden-era hip-hop vibe you want playing in the background while relaxing at Denmark holiday cottages over a quiet weekend. The guest list alone is stacked—having legends like Posdnous kicking things off on the opener "Round Trip (For Dave)" alongside heavy hitters like Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, and Inspectah Deck on "Unpredictable" makes every track feel like a proper event. Even the newer-school features like Benny the Butcher, Conway the Machine, and Joey Bada$$ fit effortlessly over the dusty, soulful production without a single wasted verse. Definitely one of his most cohesive projects in years and an easy front-to-back spin for anyone who appreciates real hip-hop craftsmanship.
