Week of June 12, 2026

Keeping track of all the new music that drops every week is a nightmare. I’m here to do it so you don’t have to! Welcome to Nu Musique Friday. Pull up some headphones and stay awhile.

Check out the Reel Notes podcast, dedicated to exploring the relationship between rap and film. Playback of Reel Talk #11 with Des Moines rapper, producer, and engineer Teller Bank$ is available now. New episodes of Reel Notes drop every Monday on my Patreon for paying members and every Wednesday wherever else podcasts are sold, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more via PodBean. Reel Notes is also available via my personal YouTube channel, and Podcasts on Vevo.

If you really wanna be tapped in, join the Reel Notes Patreon! The tenth iteration of Reel Talk, featuring North Carolina rapper Lord Jah-Monte, is available to stream exclusively on Patreon. For as little as $5/month, you'll gain access to that and video of every forthcoming Reel Notes interview, our Discord server, exclusive interviews and reviews, early access to new episodes, & more.

I also recently got my first beat placement ever as a producer for a Nolan The Ninja and ICECOLDBISHOP song called "Trippin !." it just made it to Spotify this week, so now it's available on all DSPs. run it up!

We stand in solidarity with American immigrants against ICE and the oppressed peoples of Palestine, Congo, Sudan, Tigray, and Haiti. Please consider donating to the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, The Palestinian Youth Movement, The Zakat Foundation, HealAfrica, FreeTigray, and/or Hope For Haiti. Protest, fight back, and fuck the system.
