Young M.A. Releases Debut Album 'Herstory in The Making': Stream

Young M.A. has been around for a few years and even though she has put out an EP (Herstory in 2017) and multiple singles, she has never released a full length album. That changes today.

Kendrick Lamar Shakes Up The Super Bowl With Bold Drake Diss And Surprise Guests

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl 59 halftime performance was nothing short of legendary, leaving fans buzzing with surprise cameos and bold moments that took his long-running feud with Drake to new heights. Kicking off with an unreleased song snippet and followed by “Squabble Up” from his latest album GNX, Kendrick immediately set the tone for a game-changing performance. Fans eagerly waited to see if Kendrick would play his diss track Not Like Us, especially with Drake's ongoing lawsuit against him and his label for defamation and harassment. Lamar's performance included an unexpected appearance by SZA and a quirky cameo from Serena Williams, along with Samuel L. Jackson’s comedic interruptions, all building the suspense around the Drake drama. In the middle of his performance, Kendrick turned up the heat, looking straight into the camera and directly addressing Drake with his famous lyrics, “I heard you like them young," as fans held their breath. Despite the tension, Kendrick censored himself when it came time to call Drake a "certified lover boy" and avoided saying “pedophile,” which had been widely speculated. Social media lit up with mixed reactions, with some fans mocking the performance as a "mid mashup" and others noting the intense hostility toward Drake. With the hashtag #KendrickBowl trending, it’s clear that Kendrick’s performance was a cultural moment that pushed boundaries—but has he gone too far, or is this just another chapter in hip-hop history? Only time will tell, and Drake has yet to respond.

The ‘OOOUUU’ hitmaker has shown already that she likes to get things done her way. She never signed with a major label despite having various offers on the table and took her sweet time with her album. After sharing the ‘No Mercy’ intro the other day, the New York rapper shares her full debut LP, Herstory in The Making. The release date, Sept. 27, marks 10 years of her brother losing his life to gun violence.

“There isn’t a single day that I don’t think about my brother. He continues to motivate me; inspire me & this project will forever be dedicated to his legacy,” she said.
