R&B/Hip-Hop Fresh Picks of the Week: D4vd, Khamari, Jorja Smith & More

It’s mostly a week of laid-back feels. On her mighty solo comeback, Jorja Smith dares a former love to try her, 18-year-old viral artist d4vd gushes over the woman of his dreams and Khamari pulls on classic influences. But if you’re looking for a little more chaos, Tee Grizzley and Skilla Baby have you covered with the first offering from their upcoming joint mixtape.

Moral of the story is, we’ve got something for every moment. So feel the vibes and share the wealth with our Spotify playlist, linked below.

Freshest Find: Jorja Smith, “Try Me”

Prowling in an ancient coliseum while donning influences from early civilizations, Jorja Smith is engulfed in a familiar battle that transcends time and space: a lovers quarrel. The track’s production is just as unique as its video, an amalgamation of clacking drums and bells that sink into a hypnotic rhythm as Smith challenges, “I’ve changed?/ There’s only been one thing that I’ve changed.” The cut is a dynamic and promising return for the singer, who took a brief step away after promising to Be Right Back with her 2021 EP. In the end, Smith prevails in her battle, as a praying mantis devours another behind the closing credits. Fun fact: The females of that species are known to attack and cannibalize their partner during or after sexual encounters.

Tee Grizzley & Skilla Baby, “Dropped the Lo”

If there’s one thing we love here, it’s a Detroit link-up. Tee Grizzley and Skilla Baby have given us just that and more: a joint mixtape titled CONTROVERSY via 300 Entertainment/Grizzley Gang arriving on April 28. “Dropped the Lo” is a taste of what’s to come, the duo playing perfectly off of one another, delivering attention-commanding bars as they roam the streets of Downtown Detroit in style.

d4vd, “Sleep Well”

Houston-made singer d4vd unravels a heartfelt ballad with the new “Sleep Well.” The 18-year-old Interscope signee behind the viral hits “Romantic Homicide” and “Here With Me” is gearing up for his debut EP, Petals to Thorns, due out May 16. This soulful offering centers d4vd’s rich tone and lovesick lyricism.

Casper Sage, “Pseudo”

Hypnotic harmonies shimmer across a laid back instrumental bed on Casper Sage’s “Psuedo.” The track arrives on a three-track EP from the Oklahoma City act. Also titled Psuedo, Casper Sage calls the project “an encapsulation of a moment in time that was filled with purposeful loneliness, chaotic emotional turmoil, and vices trying to cover it all up.”

AQ, “Showdown”

Combining drill 808s with 2016-17 trap R&B sensibilities, AQ presents a refreshing take on rap-singing and late night drive music. The short and sweet “Showdown” boasts replay value, packed with emotion and catchy melodies.

Gabrielle B., “Body”

Gabrielle B. is all about intimacy. “Body” sees the emerging singer enticing her lover as she whisper-sings about “craving your body right now” and being able to “elevate your life.” The song’s instrumentation pairs well with her almost hushed vocal tone, and listeners can expect an accompanying video soon.

Khamari, “Right My Wrongs”

Boston native Khamari finds himself at the intersection of timeless musicality and contemporary style. Like previous singles “On My Way” and “Drifting” where he samples R&B/soul greats Al Green and Nina Simone respectively, the singer continues to liberate his old soul with “Right My Wrongs” on which he interpolates Darondo’s 2005 song “Didn’t I.” The songs are a glimpse into Khamari’s sonic documentary — or upcoming debut album — A Brief Nirvana, due out May 26.

Jean Deaux, “Yeah Yeah”

The hi-hat-strewn “Yeah Yeah” arrives as a standout track on Jean Deaux’s new EP Heavy. The Chicago singer/rapper doesn’t tolerate the BS and even throws some jokes in her bars, singing “Baby you got problems/ No Iyanla, I could never solve ‘em.”

Saba x No I.D., “Back in Office”

From the private collection of Saba and producer NO I.D. comes “Back in Office.” The Chicago natives teamed up for the single with Saba flexing his cadence and lyrical prowess over an electric guitar-laced beat. “Back in Office” sees Sabab addressing his haters and critics with lines like, “Got n—as asking, is it jazz or is it rap?/ I’m a bit imaginative, I’m where the ribbon at,” and “This is for the amateurs, this is what a master raps/ Some of them not amateurs, but next to me they sound like that.”

AG Club, “flippin s–t”

Bay Area hip-hop collective AG Club threw a one-two punch with their new two-pack 2MORE. Released ahead of their debut Coachella set this past weekend, frontmen Jody Fontaine and Baby Boy tag-team for “aorta” and “flippin s–t,” which both feature a booming bassline and nimble raps. The latter in particular almost acts as a declaration, as the duo strives to flip the industry upside down with their presence.

Drake Praises Dominic Fike for ‘Bodying’ His Coachella Set

Dominic Fike has a fan in Drizzy. After nailing his Coachella weekend one set on Sunday (April 16), the singer-songwriter earned praise from none other than Drake on Instagram Stories.

“@dominicfike bodying his set,” the rapper wrote, posting a photo of Fike’s live-streamed performance.

The Euphoria actor expressed his gratitude for the shoutout by reposting Drake’s words on his own Story, adding a respectful salute emoji.

Fike also got love from stars like BLACKPINK’s Jisoo, who posted about his set on Instagram, and Cara Delevigne. According to Rolling Stone, the “Babydoll” musician breezed through his showcase on the festival’s Outdoor Theatre stage, telling fans he “wasn’t even nervous” to be taking on one of the world’s biggest music events.

He also opened up about his sobriety following struggles with substance abuse, sharing: “Hopefully I’ll feel something because, man, it’s been tough. When you quit drugs, it’s tough to get the serotonin back.”

Fike is currently getting ready to step into a new era, with his next studio album expected to arrive via Columbia sometime this year. Two days prior to his Coachella set, he released new single “Dancing in the Courthouse.”

Meanwhile, Drake — who himself headlined Coachella in 2015 — is fresh off the release of his own new single, “Search & Rescue.” The loved-up track left fans and drama-lovers alike buzzing for its inclusion of an audio file of Kim Kardashian’s voice talking about her ill-fated relationship with Kanye West on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, and it debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart dated April 22.

SEVENTEEN Reveals the Craziest Places They’ve Met CARATs: Watch

CARATs are worldwide, and SEVENTEEN‘s recent sit down with Billboard News is proof. The K-pop group stopped by to play a quick game with Billboard News host Tetris Kelly, in which they revealed some of the strangest and most interesting places where they have met their dedicated fans.

According to Joshua, the weirdest place he’s ever met a fan was at “Disneyland. I went with my parents too,” he told Kelly, adding that he’s had a spontaneous fan meet at an Apple Store as well. “I met a CARAT on the Ferris wheel in Seattle,” Hoshi said, with Mingyu stating that he “actually run[s] into them quite often.”

When asked who the members of the group are fans of, Hoshi proudly shared that he’s a Justin Bieber fan, while Jun loves KARA and Mingyu is a fan of Billie Eilish. The group also stated that live performances from Bieber — as well as John Mayer, Taemin (of SHINee) and their producer Bumzu — are some of the best they’ve ever attended.

SEVENTEEN is currently in album promotion mode — the group is gearing up to release its 10th mini album, FML, on April 24. The set, which contains a total of six tracks, comes nine months after the release of the group’s repackage album, Sector 17 (which charted at No. 4 on the all genre Billboard 200). The mini album features two tracks, “F*ck My Life” and “손오공 (Super),” which will hit streaming after the album’s formal arrival.

Following the release of FML, the SEVENTEEN 2023 JAPAN FANMEETING ‘LOVE’ will hit Japan in May, taking over Kyocera Dome Osaka and Tokyo Dome across four dates.

Andrew Lloyd Webber Dunks on ‘Cats’ Movie on ‘The Tonight Show’

Andrew Lloyd Webber stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday night (April 17) to reflect on Cats, The Phantom of the Opera and more.

Host Jimmy Fallon led his conversation with the Broadway legend to the Jellicle 1981 musical by asking, “Can I ask you about Cats?” as members of the audience chuckled. “How does one come up with an idea like Cats? And are you a cat person?”

“Well, I am a cat person,” Lord Lloyd Webber responded. “Well, I was a total cat person until I saw the Cats movie.”

After that joke got an impromptu standing ovation from the studio audience, the composer continued. “What happened to the Cats movie was, during the course of it being, as it were, shot — which I hope the whole movie would’ve been — I bought this little puppy. And he was called Mojito, he’s a little Havanese dog, he comes from Cuba.”

Lloyd Webber went on to explain that he tried using the pup as a therapy dog on an airplane, but the unnamed airline said he needed a doctor’s note. “And so I just said, ‘I saw the Cats movie and bought a puppy,’” he deadpanned. “And they said, ‘No doctor’s letter required.’”

Directed by Tom Hooper, the 2019 musical adaptation featured a who’s who of stars like James Corden, Judi Dench, Idris Elba, Jason Derulo, Jennifer Hudson, Ian McKellan and Taylor Swift as humanoid alley cats. It was panned by critics and audiences alike, though “Beautiful Ghosts,” the original song written for the film by Lloyd Webber and Swift, did garner a Grammy nomination for best song written for visual media.

During the interview, the Broadway impresario also spoke about the closing of Phantom the night before, saying, “It was sad last night because I just felt it could run on, but there you go.”

However, the iconic chandelier may not have fallen for the last time. ALW received a mysterious note that was delivered to the Tonight Show studio from the Phantom himself, which read, “I am extremely displeased that my legend is no longer being told in New York, a city for which I have developed great affection. I am therefore currently obtaining a new address in which my legend will be examined in extreme detail. I advise you and New Yorkers to be vigilant.”

These Are the 10 Most Popular Artists for ‘Drag Race’ Lip Syncs

While many formats have come and gone throughout the storied history of RuPaul’s Drag Race, one fundamental tradition on the show has remained since the very beginning — the lip sync.

Whether it’s a lip sync for your life, a lip sync for your legacy, a lip sync for the crown or another variation, the lip sync has become the most inextricable cornerstone of the reality show’s brand. Watching two (or occasionally more) queens battling it out while dancing and mouthing the words to some of our favorite songs is part of the reason why Drag Race has essentially become the unofficial sporting league of the LGBTQ community.

Debates have long been held in the Drag Race fan community as to what constitutes a great lip sync; is it the high-octane dance moves, death drops, duck walks and various other stunts that boost performances to success? Is it the number of reveals — either in costumes or wigs — that a queen can successfully pull off? Is it as simple as how well a queen can convey the spirit of a song?

As valid as all these points are, there is one factor to a successful lip sync that doesn’t often get its due — song choice. Picking the right track for staging a no-holds-barred battle is crucial to the ultimate success of a lip sync. So, the question remains: which recording artist’s songs have soundtracked the most lip syncs on Drag Race?

Below, Billboard breaks down the artists whose songs have been featured the most times in lip syncs on RuPaul’s Drag Race and RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars, and why their music has become an essential part of the Drag Race experience.

Offset Thanks Calvin Harris For ‘Hard’ Takeoff Tribute at Coachella

Calvin Harris honored Takeoff during his Coachella weekend one set, and Offset took notice.

Takeoff, one third of Migos, tragically passed away on Nov. 1, 2022 after being shot at a Houston bowling alley — but fans in the audience still got to hear his voice boom through the speakers at Harris’ Saturday (April 15) festival performance. That was thanks to the DJ’s incorporation of a featured verse recorded by Takeoff before his death into the set; according to People, the “One Kiss” hitmaker lifted Takeoff’s part from the pair’s 2017 Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1 collaboration “Holiday” and mixed it into another track from the same album, “Slide.”

“Slide” originally only featured Frank Ocean, Offset and Quavo, so Harris’ augmented Coachella version made it possible for all three members of Migos to shine on the track for the first time ever. Harris also decorated his stage with a large portrait of the “Casper” artist as the song played.

“This so hard, man, thank you,” Offset said, thanking Harris in a post about the performance on his Instagram Story.

Offset also shared a Takeoff tribute of his own on Saturday, posting photos of his brand new tattoo: an inked portrait of his late cousin, so large it covers his entire back. “Love you 4L & after,” he wrote in his caption.

A few weeks prior, Offset previewed a posthumous collab with Takeoff by posting a minute-long snippet of the track on his Story. In the sneak peek, Takeoff could be heard exchanging bars with Vezzo, who’s also featured, before Set takes the reigns with his own solo moment.

Dolly Parton Promises Garth Brooks the ‘Best Night of Your Life’ at the ACM Awards

Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, hosts of the upcoming Academy of Country Music Awards, star in a fun and playful promotional video for the 2023 ACMs that was released on Tuesday (April 18). The 45-second spot, titled “First Time,” plays off the fact that Parton is an experienced host and this is Brooks’ first time as a host.

The scene takes place in Parton’s dressing room. Parton asks, “Are you ready for our big night?”

“Yeah, I’m a little nervous to be honest,” Brooks responds. “First time and all.”

Parton seeks to reassure her skittish partner by saying “Oh, don’t be nervous, I’m going to be right here with you.”

Brooks asks, “You’ve done this before, right?”

Parton responds, “Oh, I’ve done this before. Plenty of times – plenty of people.”

This, of course, makes Brooks even more nervous. “Really?”

“And I personally am going to make this the best night of your life,” Parton promises.

After a beat, Brooks asks, “We’re talking about hosting the ACM award show, right?”

Parton and Brooks handle the script’s comic double-entendres like the pros they are. The spot concludes with Parton saying, “If you have any problem, you just look at me.”

“Yes ma’am,” Brooks responds.

“Up here,” Parton reminds him.

The 58th Academy of Country Music Awards, dubbed “country music’s party of the year,” will stream live exclusively for a global audience on Prime Video on Thursday, May 11 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT from the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas.

Established in 1966, the ACM Awards is the longest-running country music awards show. The show made history in 2022 as the first major awards ceremony to exclusively livestream, in partnership with Prime Video.

Ebony Riley Traded in Her Modeling Career for Music and Has Zero Regrets: ‘I Needed to Bring My Vision to Life’

On Ebony Riley’s first visit to the Billboard offices, the up-and-coming R&B singer-songwriter felt a burst of emotion run through her in response to the staff’s positive reaction to the playback of her debut EP, ebony.

Floored by the praise she received for tracks such as “Over,” “Deuce Deuce” and “Cry,” Riley gained the much-needed reassurance in knowing that her career was off to a great start, especially after only beginning this journey a year ago. 

Before she hit the gas on her music career, Riley was a model, appearing on runways and in campaigns by lauded fashion houses such as Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la Renta, Bottega Veneta, and more. She even landed a coveted spot in the fashion campaign for Beyoncé’s Renaissance album in collaboration with Balmain, featured in Vogue France Magazine last April. 

Notching wins among several A-List celebrities would have any aspiring model craving more. However, despite her success in the industry, modeling failed to fill Riley’s cup — and that had to change. 

“That was more something God chose for me,” Riley tells Billboard about her modeling career. “It wasn’t something I grew up thinking I was going to do. I just kept hearing people mention it, like my mama’s best friend, and I just took a leap.”

She adds: “But I feel like with modeling, it’s more us portraying [other people’s] dreams. As far as the stylist, the makeup artist, the photographer, and the creative director — we’re bringing their vision together. I needed something that would bring my vision to life, and that was music.”

The journey to the music industry has been long and winding for Riley, as she’s also pursuing self-love. Riley’s tears in the Billboard office were rooted in gratitude over people loving something she created. For Riley, self-love is part of her pursuit of becoming a full-fledged music artist, especially since that journey has been challenging. 

“I’m still going through the ropes of making sure I’m completely loving myself,” Riley admits. “‘Cause I feel like you manifest and attract where you are. So not saying that I ain’t s–t, but I don’t feel like I put myself to a standard years before this, because of my own childhood traumas or whatever else. My unhealed child was looking for sympathy, and I’ve figured that out. Now, I’m empowering myself with my story and my vulnerability.” 

Below, Billboard speaks more with Ebony Riley about chasing her music dreams, the differences between the modeling and music industries, hitting a level of vulnerability to share her pain with fans, and more. Check it out below.

With you stepping into the game with your music career, Detroit has produced yet another talent. What’s the secret?

I think it’s the pain and struggle that everybody goes through in the city. We are a bunch of strong, talented individuals, and we find an outlet through our music or whatever creative outlet that we get presented. There’s not a lot of opportunity out there, but the OGs that came before inspired us to keep it going.

What was growing up in the 313 like for you?

Detroit was booming at one point. From the car industry to the music industry, we had millionaires and billionaires all over — then they started pumping drugs into the street and threw a freeway in the middle of all the Black businesses. That negatively affected our community, and we’re still going through that struggle. My family was affected by it, and it wasn’t easy. I lost my mom when I was like nine and went through foster care. But I felt like everything I did go through built me up to be where I am today. I thank God that I don’t look like what I’ve been through, or portray it. I don’t let it overtake me.

When did music come into the picture for you?

My mom used to have her little cassette tapes playing around the house — from Mary J. Blige, Erykah Badu, Toni Braxton, Barry White. She had me on all the things, so it started really early for me. And then I think I noticed my voice when I was about seven and started playing around with it when I was, like, nine. My grandmother exposed me to even more music — and from there, my love grew more and more. I wanted an outlet where I could go through it and share my pain, and music was that for me.

When did you know that you could become an actual artist?

It wasn’t necessarily me waking up and knowing one day. It was more of me challenging myself, proving a point and letting go of my fears. Music is my love and my passion, but I let my insecurities and fears of what society thinks beauty is get in the way. Society told me we ain’t had nobody that looked like me that really had a career since, like, Whitney [Houston] — but I learned it wasn’t about that.

What were some of the differences between the modeling and music industries?

I struggled with the model industry so badly because it was too many things going on where I felt I was restricting myself and I couldn’t live like that. My blessing with that was to get in the door and lead me to where we at now. I’m grateful and blessed to have been in these rooms, campaigns and runways, but at the same time, I wasn’t expressing myself creatively. I wanted to move more on my terms and have my own creative input in it instead of me being a puppet and just doing what I have to do to make ends meet. My story is bigger than that. If I just shut up, nobody would know my story. I wouldn’t be able to inspire the girls the way I want to.

When you first visited us in our New York office, the response to your debut EP filled you with so much joy. What’s that feeling like with this essentially being your rookie year?

It feels amazing, because ebony is my baby. We’ve been working on this project for four years. So to hear it and finally share it, and y’all actually rocking with it, is like — wow. I’m grateful that it’s translating and people are connecting to it.

You’re talking about all facets of love on the EP, from flirting to heartbreak. What was your mindset going into ebony?

ebony is a love story gone wrong based around a very specific time of my life. When I was like 21, I was in a bad relationship where things happened, and a lot of stuff that I [hadn’t healed from] was still lurking around. I had spent so many years not expressing myself and holding on to my feelings. I wanted to be vulnerable, because it helps with healing, and I was just blessed to have a team of people who know and understand me.

Being this vulnerable also comes with a sense of self-love and understanding of who you are as a person. Is that type of love the most important to you right now?

Yes, and I’m still teaching myself that. I’m still going through the ropes of making sure I’m completely loving myself. I was in situations with men where there was no self-love. You have to love and respect yourself. If that man doesn’t get it, he got to go. Love for me is just loving yourself first and really loving yourself unconditionally. I’m not saying to go do a post on Instagram or get your hair done. It’s more of taking care of your mental, taking care of everything from your body to every part of you that keeps the motor going. You can’t do anything without having love for yourself because you won’t do things for yourself.

What’s the legacy you want to leave for yourself as you go deeper into your music career?

I want people to see I unapologetically went for my dreams and showed no fear. The legacy will be, she came, conquered and did what she was supposed to do. I’m doing this to give people a voice, but I’m also doing this for myself. This is me reassuring and reminding myself that I do have a purpose and that I love myself, my story and the journey that’s coming.
