“Baby Pluto” by Lil Usi Vert
The first song of Lil Usi’s new album Eternal Atake starts the album off hot, and brings back Usi’s old sound that his fans have been waiting for. Trap drums and a unique beat fill the song, as Lil Usi spits high pitched bars. It is a true return to form for the iconic rapper

“Homecoming” by Lil Usi Vert
“Homecoming” another song off Eternal Atake hits hard from the beginning, with a strong bass and harder lyrics. The song includes bars about Anthony Davis, the new Lakers star, as well as the famous Nicki Minaj. Although the song strays from the normal upbeat tone of Usi’s songs, it is a welcome change.

“What Would Meek Do?” by Pusha T and Kanye West
Pusha T and Kanye combine together in this 2018 song to ask the question, what would Meek do? Pusha and Kanye both spit impressive and intelligent bars about the Philly rapper Meek Mill. Shades of the Old Kanye emerge in this song with him calling Meek out for being out off touch, and even talking about Meeks kids. This song serves as a slight diss track for Meek. The song ends with Ye asking Meek how he will respond.

“Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac
“Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac serves as a welcome change of pace in this week’s playlist. This slow, happy and upbeat 1977 classic immediately puts the listener into a relaxed state. Throughout the song, the listener is sedated by Stevie Nicks calming and unique voice that effortlessly glides along with the beat.
