Pusha T is not playing around with anyone this year and that's evidenced by his recent warning he issued to every rapper. He delivered it during his time at the first weekend of Coachella, where he performed on Saturday, April 12. The Clipse rapper shared a video to his Instagram Story of a first-person view of his merch for the festival. It's a cool but pretty creepy black-and-white drawing of the Virginia MC with a horrifying grin that looks like it was plucked right from the Smile film franchise. Making things darker is the fact that it has him in a strait jacket. Later into the minute-long clip is when "King Push" sends his fair warning.
"Look at this f*cking sicko. Big, big difference. When I smile like that, it means that it's a big, big difference between me and you n****s," Pusha T said. "I'ma f*ck y'all up, man. I can't [wait]. I'ma f*ck y'all up this year. I f*cking hate y'all so f*cking bad. I hate y'all so bad." All of this was seemingly some extra promotion for him and his brother No Malice's return as Clipse. They are slated to drop their album later this year, although a date hasn't been confirmed at press time.
Pusha T did reaffirm that it was coming while on one of the Coachella stages during a break in his set. "Clipse coming soon. Super soon. Again, it’s the best story. I can’t wait to tell y’all the story." The project is going to be titled Let God Sort Em Out and is going to only feature production from Pharrell Williams. This trio of artists have made tons of standout records together, so this a pretty exciting reunion as well.
In terms of features, XXL reports that Nas, Stove God Cooks, and John Legend are three confirmed guests. Others that are speculated include Kendrick Lamar and/or Jay-Z. As far as snippets and previews of tracks go, "Birds Don't Sing" was performed at the Louis Vuitton's Men's Spring-Summer 2025 show last year. Additionally, a second potential teaser leaked online in February of this year.

Lil Yachty usually does a great job at feeding his fans new music. It seems like every other week he's got new snippets to tease or loosies dropping on DSPS whenever he feels like it. Just several hours ago, the Georgia multi-hyphenate hopped on over to his SoundCloud page, tHE CONCRETE LeaK sYstem, to share some long-lost recordings.
Per HipHopNMore, there's 11 in total and the origins of them range from 2022-2025. Some of you may remember that Lil Yachty updated this account almost a year ago with 14 tracks. Back then he unleased some unheard collaborations with his 2016 XXL Freshman classmate 21 Savage and singer Vory.
In the time since then, Yachty did drop off a pair of freestyles as well. But this is the latest major collection to be added to tHE CONCRETE LeaK sYstem.
Overall, the cuts here feel reminiscent of his earlier material in that they are more trap focused. However, the main some extra charm with most of the beats featuring some slightly left-field quirks.
They definitely don't relate at all to what Lil Boat has been experimenting with solo catalog wise. His 2023 album Let's Start Here. was a psychedelic rock exploration. Then, there's his 2024 collaboration joint with James Blake, Bad Cameo.
On that, Lil Yachty stepped into the London artist's soundscape in some ways by bringing his warbly singing voice to neo-soul, alternative R&B, and ambient pop.
But unfortunately for the 27-year-old, him sharing of all of this music with his fans has been interrupted to some degree. That's because Yachty is still going back and forth with former Concrete Boys group mate, KARRAHBOOO.
Her initial split from Boat's collective was a shocking development when it originally happened about a year ago. However, as the two rappers repeatedly went at each other's throats, we began to learn more. Yachty was claiming that KARRAHBOOO was incredibly disrespectful to those involved with the group.
Moreover, it led to him claiming that he was writing all of her verses and tracks. KARRAHBOOO has since retaliated, of course, but she really went after him recently. Just two weeks ago, she alleged that he mistreats women poorly overall. "U have a daughter and u treating women like this is mindblowing like I know u never see her but still that doesn’t make sense how evil this man is to women (not just me)," she said in part.
