Kevin Ross (@kevinrossmusic) - “LOVE UPTEMPO: MAX” (Album)

Multi-talented singer, songwriter, and producer Kevin Ross delivers a bold new chapter in his sonic evolution with the release of his highly anticipated new album LOVE UPTEMPO: MAX, available today across all digital streaming platforms via Art Society Music Group/Empire. The album features production and writing contributions from an all-star creative lineup, including Louis York (Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony), Grammy-nominated songwriter Justin Love, and acclaimed musician Romeo Taylor, alongside Ross’ own pen and production. Their combined artistry gives the project a rich, multidimensional sound that easily bridges eras and genres. A dynamic, mid- and uptempo-driven body of work, LOVE UPTEMPO: MAX is a joyous celebration of rhythm and romance. This is Ross like you’ve never heard him before: no ballads, just pure energy, fun, and feel-good vibes from start to finish. Blending R&B, soul, AfroBeats, and pop, the 12-track album showcases Ross at his most uninhibited—playful, flirty, and rhythmically fearless. Packed with infectious hooks, lush harmonies, and vibrant melodies, LOVE UPTEMPO: MAX feels like a summer rooftop party, a family gathering, and a night out you never want to end. Tracks like “Luxury Lust,” “Spin,” and “Back 4 More” highlight Ross’ ability to push R&B into new spaces while keeping soul at the center. “This project means so much to me because it’s about celebrating love in all its forms through the joy of R&B music and its effects on the mind, body, and spirit. It's my love letter to the genre that shaped me,”states Kevin. “As an independent artist, I’m grateful to be able to create music on my own terms and share it with people who truly connect with it. LOVE UPTEMPO: MAX is me pushing the boundaries of what R&B can sound like while keeping that soul at the center. I hope when people hear it, they feel good and inspired.” His hit single “Love In The Middle” anchored the album and undeniably impacted the charts. It spent three consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Adult R&B Airplay chart before returning to the top spot again, totaling four weeks at #1. The song’s success is a testament to Ross’ ability to craft timeless music with universal appeal. Kevin Ross also has more dates for fans to catch him live. He is set to continue expanding his high-energy “Love Uptempo Tour,” which has already sold out nationwide venues. In addition, it was just announced that Kevin will open for Ledisi’s “The Crown Tour” this fall, appearing on select dates.

HoodTrophy Bino f/ Bravo the Bagchaser - "Act Different" (Video)

HoodTrophy Bino and Bravo the Bagchaser release the music video for their new track "Act Different." The track is a raw exploration of loyalty, consequences, and the price of success in the streets. The video concept perfectly mirrors the song's narrative: HoodTrophy Bino and Bravo the Bagchaser behind glass in LA County, facing their women who question whether they'll "stay down if they take me," while "You sayin money make me act different" hits different when delivered through a prison phone. The visual cuts from the cold jail scenes to a street lit parking lot where they're "spending racks on her appearance" with luxury cars and designer shopping bags and the lyrics about "diamonds with these shackles" take on a literal meaning when we see them flexing chains in one scene and dealing with real consequences in another.“Act Different” is from Bino’s latest album CBFW, which features standout collaborations with NoCap, Bravo the Bagchaser, Lefty Gunplay and more. Bino will be performing on the Rio Da Yung OG tour starting in August, and is also slated to perform at the Trippie Redd show at Toyota Arena on September 16th. Standout single “I Want Her” featuring Kalan.FrFr has earned airplay on SiriusXM The Heat, Power 106, 96.1 The Beat, and Power 105, and has been featured at major events including SneakerCon, LA Clippers games, and Rams games. This week, Bino hit 500,000 streams on Pandora.

Star2 (@Star2Official), Luh Kel (@lifewluhkel) & LerMuDex - "Here We Go" (Video)

Star2 joins rappers Luh Kel and LerMuDex on “Here We Go”, the first single from Star2's upcoming EP, Lonely Summer Nightz. The track is a slow-burning, emotionally rich exploration of love, deception, and longing. "Here We Go" is a sultry yet soulful anthem that lingers in the fragile space where desire meets disappointment. Thai verses add a poignant, cross-cultural depth to the track, reinforcing how universal the feelings of heartbreak and hope can be. The accompanying music video is filled with images of luxury homes, swimming pools and gorgeous women. They have it all, but still suffer from heavy hearts. The single is another bold step for Star2, a refugee pop-meets-hip hop artist who turned trauma into triumph after escaping a violent raid on his village as a child. With a growing catalog of powerful, genre-blending music and collaborations with artists like Soulja Boy, $tupid Young, Mozzy, MBNel, Luh Kel and LerMuDex, Star2 continues to tell his story with raw honesty and undeniable style.
