Fresh off the release of their new album The Future, Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats performed three songs from the LP for CBS Mornings’ Saturday Sessions.
Performing live from New York’s Beacon Theater, the Denver rock outfit delivered “Love Don’t,” “Face Down in the Moment” and “Survivor” from their third studio album, the follow-up to their 2018 LP Tearing at the Seams; Rateliff also released a solo album, And It’s Still Alright, in 2020.
Rateliff and the Night Sweats wrote and recorded The Future at the singer’s studio near Denver with producer Bradley Cook.
“I look at the album overall as a big question,” Rateliff previously said of The Future. “When I was writing the record we were in the middle of a pandemic and our future looked pretty bleak. I just continue to try to write from a place of hope. Then my own neurosis, and maybe being a libra gets in the way, and I can’t make up my mind. There is this constant back and forth battle in me personally and I am sure that comes out in my writing.”
The album arrived last week, coinciding with the end of the Americana band’s long summer-into-fall tour that finally concludes Saturday night in Cleveland.
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
