After expressing his frustration with his label, Tory Lanez is now a free man and celebrates the occasion by dropping the third installment in his The New Toronto mixtape series with The New Toronto 3.

TNT 3 packs a powerful punch as the 16-track arsenal leaves more than enough room to display Tory’s versatile style. There aren’t that many guest appearances with only Mansa and Lil Tjay being noteworthy artist featured which gives the Toronto artist plenty of room to stretch his legs on each song.

Lanez announced in February of this year that his deal with Interscope was coming to an end with The New Toronto 3. According to Lanez, the deal in question was for 5 albums and the Canadian musician far surpassed that by producing 12 projects which included mixtapes.

I haven’t dropped the music that I REALLY wanted to for the last 4 years. I just freestyle’d sh*t and songs that WOULD GET YOU BY , up [until] i said f*ck it. I gotta atleast go 60% or they gone start thinking I’m super trash then boom “CHIXTAPE 5” but this should be fun tho.

Pop Smoke has been laid to rest for a little over a month now. The Brooklyn rapper was murdered just weeks after dropping his sophomore album Meet The Woo 2. Glad to see the team behind Pop Smoke is still working hard to give his fans something to smile about with his new single “How We Move.” To add to the list of surprises, the track features an uncredited verse from fellow New York rapper Dave East.

Not one to just be cooped up, Drake decided to give us a visual for his newest single ‘Tootsie Slide.’ The video is directed by Theo Skudra and shows The Boy walking through random rooms in his crib while wearing a Nike balaclava and showcasing what seems to be an internet dance craze in the making.

Creators are going to create no matter the circumstance. More musicians are finding different forms of being relevant and staying in the mix despite the COVID-19 fiasco keeping them from either performing or just being out in general.

Even though Mac Miller is no longer with us, his estate has dropped two visuals for his songs ‘Right’ and ‘Floating’ to keep us content.

“Right” features Thundercat as well as collaborators Vic Wainstein and Jeff “Gitty” Gitelman. The song shows Mac’s softer side as he reminisces about a lost love. The ‘Circles’ album really shows the growth of the PA emcee as well as his experimentation with singing.

Floating” enlists photographer Christian Weber as he paints the picture of a white bird soaring through a skyline filled with clouds. Thundercat’s presence is felt on this track as well, offering production and back up vocals. Jon Brion deserves a lot of credit for not only being a collaborator, but for also finishing the album after Mac’s passed.
