The candid song "HONEST" arrived as the second track off Baby Keem's 2019 mixtape Die for My Bitch. In his verses, Keem deals with authenticity amidst feelings of isolation and the façade of transactional relationships. Despite confessing infidelity, he questions whether his partner reflects his honesty. Keem's lyrics hint at his desire for genuine connections. Produced by Sounwave, Keem, and Bēkon, "HONEST" has undoubtedly solidified as one of the rapper's most-streamed offerings to date. Racking up over 300 million Spotify plays by August 2023, the July 19, 2019 release resonated deeply with fans drawn to its raw vulnerability.

Thirteendegrees° is an artist who is quickly becoming a fan-favorite. His production choices are phenomenal. With sampled vocals and wavy soundscapes hanging in the background, Thirteendegrees° is able to deliver some sensational melodies. While some will immediately compare his voice to Young Thug's, it is clear that he is his own artist. The new song "DWNTWN LUV" is a perfect example of this. The song has a sweet meaning to it, as he sings about a woman who has become the center of his life. Meanwhile, the maximalist approach to production carries the song forward. This is a great effort, and we are very excited to hear more.
