Music fans have been more than excited that a new Gorillaz LP is currently under works, and we have now learned that a familiar face in Chicago is likely working on the new and highly anticipated project. Hours ago, Gorillaz-affiliated producer Remi Kabaka (voice of the Gorillaz’s Russel Hobbs) posted a photo of Vic in the studio in Chicago. While we can’t say for sure whether they were all working on the Gorillaz’s forthcoming album, it’s a definite possibility. This may seem like an unlikely collaboration on the surface, but Mensa definitely is a rock star, as much as he is a rapper. Whether it’s providing feedback or a guest feature, a Vic and Gorillaz record would be amazing.

Childish Gambino news is rare in 2016 while Donald Glover has shifted his focus on his forthcoming FX show Atlanta. So when Chance The Rapper gave a fan on reddit this weekend a simple one-word response, Chance and Bino fans everywhere rejoiced. During Chance’s reddit “ask me anything” fan Q&A, a fan asked the Chicago rapper:

“Does the Chance and Childish Gambino collab album/mixtape still exist?”

With just a few letters, Chance gave the answer we were all hoping for by replying yes. While he didn’t give any details, the fact that the music has been actually recorded gets rap fans everywhere hopeful that the project will be released. However, since Chance just released his highly anticipated album/mixtape, Coloring Book, and given how busy Childish Gambino is, don’t expect the project anytime soon.

Stream some of our favorite Chance/Gambino songs below.

Zayn is doing things as a solo artist that he never saw in One Direction. Whether it’s breaking records that 1D never reached, or making the type of music that he otherwise wasn’t allowed to, it is really cool to see Zayn doing Zayn. And while this one doesn’t have the awesome steamy cameo from Gigi Hadid that ‘Pillow Talk’ had, Zayn’s new music video for ‘Like I Would’ is amazing in its own right. Full of futuristic visuals, neon body suits and laser lights, ‘Like I Would’ is definitely a must see for any Zayn fan, or any fan of music generally.
