DURKALINI SHARES NEW SINGLE "BOTTEGA BOOTS"

Alabama-grown newcomer Durkalini has just shared his new single "BOTTEGA BOOTS" – out now via Surf Gang Records along with an accompanying music video. An artist hailed for his off-the-wall bars and rapturous flows, Durkalini injects energetic, left-of-center lyricism and memorable one-liners ("Trapped at the store, they gone think that I’m loitering") into the bass-heavy, SURF GANG-produced "BOTTEGA BOOTS".

The release follows Durkalini's previous collaboration with SURF GANG headmaster evilgiane on the Fergie-interpolating, Woesum-assisted "GLAMOROUS" from evilgiane's critically-acclaimed #HEAVENSGATE VOL. 1 project, released earlier this year. Known for his genre-bending pluggnb sound that blends elements of Atlanta trap and Milwaukee bounce, Durkalini exploded onto the scene with breakout single "BMF 4", which earned the former championship-winning University of Alabama football player co-signs from the likes of Doja Cat and Rx Papi.

"BOTTEGA BOOTS" arrives on the heels of an exciting year for SURF GANG and evilgiane — after receiving a 2024 GRAMMY "Best Rap Performance" nomination for his work on Kendrick Lamar & Baby Keem's"The Hillbillies", he's since released both a collab album with Slimesito, EVILSLIME, as well as January mixtape #HEAVENSGATE VOL. 1.

The project boasted features from the likes of Rx Papi, 454, Xaviersobased, Nettspend, 03 Greedo and FLEE and was instantly met with critical acclaim from The FADER, Stereogum, Hypebeast and Pitchfork. Recent months have seen SURF GANG join forces with Massachusetts singer LUCY (Cooper B. Handy) on their collaboration tape JACK & THE BEANSTALK as well as Inglewood artist Bbyafricka on new EP HARD COPY.

despite this allegedly only targetting porn sites my state is incredibly fascist and incredibly bigotted

meaning that they can and very well could target sites that are not porn sites such as twitter tumblr and instagram and if they do those platforms will geoblock alabama as they cannot change tos and community guidelines for just one state

this bill could also target any content online that is dubbed 'harmful to minors' which can and most likely will target (including but not limited to) queer content sexual health/ex content and content about abuse mental illness or addiction

i need your help getting it sued qnd shot down so i dont lose everything i have left

the internet is my only safe space and the only way i can talk to my bf (aka the single thing keeping me alive atm)

PLEASE help me out

this is a link to a thread of resources i made on my twitter

YHAPOJJ SHARES NEW SINGLE "SSWERVE GEEKED" (FEAT. LIL TONY)

Fresh off a feature in Rolling Stone’s “2024 Future of Music” print issue that hailed him as a “young act at the vanguard of underground rap”, Yhapojj has just announced that his new project PS Fuck You will be out on 5/10, and shared his new single “Sswerve Geeked” featuring Lil Tony. The track arrives on the heels of a sold-out run of shows in Atlanta, Los Angeles, and New York – where Yhapojj brought out Trippie Redd, and performed alongside artists like Bear1Boss and Marlon DuBois. Serving as his third release of 2024, “Sswerve Geeked” follows February’s “hope ulike me” (1.7M+ Streams) – a track that Our Generation Music praised as “an embodiment of Yhapo’s quick ascent in the underground”, and March’s danceable “Make Sum Noise”. Since his viral single “1o” (7M+ Streams) last year, Yhapojj has quickly risen to the forefront of Hip-Hop’s new underground wave since breaking into the Top 100 of Apple Music’s ‘Top Albums’ chart with his 2023 EP, Evolution of Xur. Emerging as a torchbearer for the forward-thinking “jerk” sound he’s helped pioneer, 2023 proved to be a monstrous year for Yhapojj, capped off by a riotous NYC show getting shut down by the NYPD in December, and earning his place on Year-End lists like No Bells’ ‘Best Internet Rap of 2023’ and being named one of OGM’s ‘Artists to Watch in 2024’. Continuing to showcase why he’s been lauded as one of this year’s must-watch artists, Yhapojj’s new single “Sswerve Geeked” (feat. Lil Tony) is out now via Simple Stupid Records.

Defined by hypnotic trap production and Yhapojj’s signature upbeat flow, “Sswerve Geeked” featuring Lil Tony is a compelling, timestamped portrait from the imaginative Yhapojj. Gliding effortlessly across the track’s hazy synths and uptempo 808s, Yhapojj holds court on both the highs (“I’m fuckin’ with this bitch / Bitch gotta be perfect”) and lows (“I gotta keep my gun on me late night / N— out to hurt me”) of his breakthrough year – demonstrating why The FADER recently heralded Yhapojj as one of “the underground’s key figures”. After having “You Lookin Gud” become his most-streamed song (2M+ Streams) last year, it was quickly replaced only a month later with “1o”, and the entirety of his Evolution of Xur EP last year –– beginning his astronomical climb up the ranks of the underground. Now with his third release of the year, “Sswerve Geeked” (feat. Lil Tony), Yhapojj is continuing to push the boundaries of what underground Hip-Hop can sound like, while feeding the newfound demand for his idiosyncratic, melody-driven sound and refreshing emotional candor that has captured the imagination of the youth.
