Kiss of Judas - Rick Ross & Etana (Single)
Betrayal cuts the deepest, and that’s exactly the energy behind “KISS OF JUDAS.” Rick Ross and Etana turn pain into power on this explosive new single, laying it out like a revelation instead of just another record. This one feels less like music and more like a message.
The One - Gabriel Jacoby (Single)
Gabriel takes it back to Tampa with a love-driven homage to the funk that once lit up roller discos. The song sits along hypnotic guitars, sharp horns, and a groove that doesn’t end. His raspy register matches the guitar’s fire as he lays it all out with confidence, making it clear he’s the one.
MOUNT PLEASANT - Armani White (EP)
Armani White is making moves again with “Mount Pleasant.” Known for transforming real-life moments into songs that hit, he’s giving fans something to talk about before they even hear it. Philly’s own is proving once again why everyone’s eyes stay on him.
