This was not an ordinary week. We won't pretend as though it was. There is a revolution happening outside and, although we would love to solely focus on music and the regular hip-hop news, that's not entirely appropriate right now.
We have made an effort across our editorial staff to bring you news from the protests in addition to some hip-hop news. This week, labels and artists decided to push back their releases and, although there was still some new music released today, it was to a much lesser degree than what was expected.
Every week, we update our TIDAL-exclusive TIDAL Wave playlist with the songs that our staff has been feeling the hardest. If you've been turning to music for a temporary distraction from the world that surrounds us, check out the updates we've made this week.
We start off with one of the stand-outs from Lil Wayne's brand new Funeral deluxe edition before bringing you the fire "T.D." freestyle from Lil Yachty's new album with Tierra Whack, A$AP Rocky, and Tyler, The Creator. Next up on the docket is Conway's "Front Lines" effort before Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist take over.
We've also got new cuts from G Herbo, Kevin Gates, SAINt JHN and Future, RMR, ROSALÍA and Travis Scott, 6LACK, Aminé, and more. Check out our individual contributions below and sign up for a TIDAL trial here.
