New Music Recommendations

Long Beach rapper, Ray Vaughn, finally released The Good The Bad and the Dollar Menu. After dropping single after single since 2024, we can finally hear this record as one piece. With features from the likes of Isaiah Rashad and Jay Rock, the listener is taken through a journey of the “good” of leaving his home town, the “bad” of the street fallout that still haunts his phone, and the dollar‑menu dinners that got him through both. Don’t sleep on this record. FFO: IDK, The Underachievers, Larry June, Ab-Soul and Benny The Butcher.
