Dreamville songstress Ari Lennox gets intimate and sensual on her brand new single “Get Close,” while 42 Dugg reminds his competition about his fiery flow on “SpinDatBac.”
This week’s new music roundup also includes gems from Lil Durk & Only The Family (“Them Ones”), André 3000 (“Swear, I Really Wanted To Make A Rap Album But This Is Literally The Way The Wind Blew Me This Time”), E-40, Too $hort, and Mistah F.A.B.
