Off his forthcoming Touchdown 2 Cause Hell project, Lil Boosie has released his new record ‘Black Heaven’. The track stands out, not only because it shows a more soulful side of Boosie, but also because he recruited not just one, but two, of the Coles (no relation of course). Boosie, J. Cole, and Keyshia Cole together make for an unlikely but amazing collaboration in the new song. Touchdown 2 Cause Hell drops in a week (May 26th).

Listen to ‘Black Heaven’ below.

The record is off Tyga’s forthcoming LP, The Gold Album, and even if you aren’t the biggest Tyga fan, this one is definitely worth checking out. It might surprise you.

Is Charles Hamilton Working with Beyonce?

Today rapper Charles Hamilton shared a photo on Twitter of himself with none other than the Queen B, Beyonce. We knew Charles Hamilton was making a comeback, but if the two are working on music together, this would definitely be a huge cosign and collaboration. Although, we wonder how Jay-Z feels about this photo, considering the fact that Hamilton dedicated a song to the couple in 2011, titled ‘Is Beyonce Really With Jay-Z?‘

Check out Charles’ latest single ‘NY Raining’ with Rita Ora.
