Up & Coming NYC Rapper Beverly Robinson surprise released a 9-tracks long mixtape titled TRIBE this february on ITunes which ended up shooting to #1 in the US even with it's low download numbers. The mixtape was received with mixed reactions from the Critics, who complained about the mastering feeling incomplete and rough and about how some of the tracks felt unfinished, but the potential is there, Beverly has it in her to become one of the most interesting rappers of the year. Check out her interview with Pitchfork just below. Why did you choose to do TRIBE?
Well it was jsut my message to the world, like an announcement that I was here and that I was here to stay. It really also gives a little bit more background about me and my life growing up in NYC. What did you think of the overall reception of the mixtape? It's mixed, you have people just loving it and others are saying that it was ok. Critics have been harsh about the mastering of the mixtape as well.
Well the mastering isn't actually some sort of mistake, I mean it's a mixtape. I wanted it to sound rough, I wanted it to sound raw and not just pure. It had to sound like that. If I was recording an album it would sound a lot different. Speaking of album, we've heard you're working with Kanye West on your debut!
Yes that's true actually and I'm really excited about that. Kanye is such a huge inspiration of mine. I had talked about him in the press before, praising him so I think he saw that and listened to my mixtape. Then he called me. So he must have liked it! I'm really happy about that. When is that album coming?
Well within the next... year? year and a half maybe? I'm not too sure. I will be giving fans a few songs and doing a lot of shows to make the wait easier. But it's really exciting.

Billboard Magazine (7 January, 2021) After the release of her third #1 album, 'Innocence', teen pop starlet Ahni Hart has finally grown up. Hart spoke to Billboard exclusively about her upcoming projects. She said, "I do have some follow-up singles from [Innocence] planned for release. I'm also intending to go on a tour of the US, Canada and Latin America. However, my passion for music is within the alternative pop genre, and for my next album, I will be exploring what I want to do. 'Innocence' is my last Teen Pop album. I thank all my fans who have stood by me, and those who have grown up with me, I hope can continue with me on this journey. This may be the biggest mistake of my life, but it's going to be MY mistake, and I couldn't wish for anything more." Tickets for the 'Innocent Girl Tour' are on sale now.
Oh LORD. The quality of Jade's debut is tragique. 63%-72% I suppose it'll do since it's her debut. She can work her way up to her Like A Prayer/Rated R.
