Tones and I brought some motivational energy to The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Monday night, performing the song “Cloudy Day” from her upcoming debut album Welcome to the Madhouse.
Appearing in a well-lit loft space, Tones was surrounded in a half-circle by a full choir in sparkling pink robes, which added an extra flourish to the uplifting track: “Now that I’m older, with these moments/Will I live with them or just throw them away, away?/But your momma always said, ‘Look up into the sky/Find the sun on a cloudy day.'”
In a statement, the singer said that “Cloudy Day” was inspired by the passing of her friend T, whose death made it difficult for her to write music.
“I met up with a friend who told me this saying from his late mum — ‘on a cloudy day, look up into the sky and find the sun,'” the singer recalled. “I knew I wanted to use that as a lyric and the next time I went into the studio I wrote ‘Cloudy Day.’”
Welcome to the Madhouse arrives this Friday, following a string of singles that includes “Cloudy Day” and “Won’t Sleep.” The album follows Tones and I’s 2019 EP The Kids Are Coming, which featured her breakout single “Dance Monkey.”
NLE Choppa fires back at NBA Ben 10 and the mothers of his children on the confrontational new track “Set The Record Straight,” delivering a tense, aggressive performance. On the song, he confronts rumors about his sexuality pushed by his children’s mothers and responds to claims that he has been absent as a father. Set against a stark piano loop and a gritty trap backdrop, Choppa unloads on critics and rivals, keeping his cadence controlled before switching into quicker bursts. While the approach does not break new ground for him, it should land well with listeners who ride for his style. Alongside “Set The Record Straight,” Choppa also released "Shotta Flow 8."

If I pull my strap and you pull a phone out then you p***y,
Harris County Jail almost had me in central booking,
Call a spade for a spade, you need insurance for police,
Crackin' 4's with this K, I told Lil Trey, ''Pass me my ski''
We can dirty up, I'm in the field cleated up,
I'm back and I'on give a f**k, bounced out the car and said, ''What up?''
Dead beat, who? Me and my kids super glue,
We got h*es tryna be mamas, that's the problem, damn fool
