Kay Flock f. Cardi B, Dougie B & Bory300 – “Shake It”
Don’t tell New York Mayor Eric Adams: Drill music is back. Some will say that the genre never faded, but following the loss of Pop Smoke the Chicago-originated sound dissipated. Thanks to a few promising new rookies like Kay Flock, the scene is reinvigorated.
On “Shake It,” the young MC recruits industry veteran Cardi B, Dougie B and Bory300 for a song that’s sure to soundtrack the Five Boroughs all summer long.

Tyga & Doja Cat – “Freaky Deaky [R3HAB Remix]”
After a bizarre spat with her Paraguayan fans this past March, which led to Doja Cat’s brief retirement from music, the “Get Into It (Yuh)” multi-hyphenate has linked with Tyga and DJ/Producer R3HAB for the official “Freaky Deaky” remix.
The Moroccan-Dutch DJ’s remix breathes more life into the Dancehall-inspired production. As Tyga surfs across the pitter-patter of drums with a smooth flow, Doja not only handles the hook but drops a quick pop-forward verse as well.
