That’s exactly what we’re looking at for The Listening, Okayplayer’s weekly music roundup that pulls from various corners of the Black music continuum. On the Tyler end of things, he stole all the hype. But Uzi’s Eternal Atake 2 should no doubt end up in plenty of discussions. Meanwhile, Gibbs (You Only Die 1nce) and WSG (Still Praying) are all but set to set the rap purist streets ablaze.

There’s more where that came from, too. Check out our weekly roundup for yourself below:

NEW SONGS

YEAT FEATURING QUAVO, “5BRAZY”

YEAT pulls up with another extraterrestrial anthem, with this one featuring the one and only Quavo.

SAWEETIE, “I WANT YOU THIS CHRISTMAS”

Look out, Mariah Carey, Saweetie’s doing holiday songs now. This one’s a smooth lover’s ode that’s at once sly and tender.

GUCCI MANE & SEXYY RED, “YOU DON’T LOVE ME”

These two just go together. Female GuWop and GuWop himself swirl together lightly flirty bars with all-consuming braggadocio for an unabashed playboy and playgirl anthem.
