Black History Month might be over, but the musical momentum continues. It’s time for another curated playlist featuring some of BET’s favorite artists from the past week.
This New Music Friday, ScHoolboy Q dropped his new album Blue Lips, Cardi B surprised the world with a freestyle and music video directed by her husband, Offset, and TikTok star Aliyah’s Interlude is ready to be a “Fashion Icon.” Pop/dark R&B mainstay Tinashe shared the performance visuals for her latest LP, BB/ANG3L, and Samara Joy showed off her Grammy-Award-winning vocals on her new song, soon to be featured in a Netflix movie.
Save a few of these for your next playlist…
Cardi B is back with a vengeance with her surprise drop, “Like What (Freestyle).” The song boasts a heavy 90s beat and the rapper’s signature double-edged lyricism. And at the end of the stunning video directed by her on-again-off-again husband, Offset was a warning: “This is just the beginning.
Hip-hop stars Meek Mill and Future teamed up for their chaotic new single “Giving Chanel.” It begins as a Rae Srummond-esqe club banger but inexplicably features bars like, “They killed my dog a few days ago” and “She eat the dick up ’til she cry, cry, cry, it’s givin’ Chanel.”
This TikTok star is your new “Fashion Icon.” Aliyah’s Interlude burst onto the scene with her viral hit “IT GIRL” and continues pushing boundaries with alt-aesthetics and cackle-worthy one-liners.
ScHoolboy Q just dropped his sixth studio album, Blue Lips. The features on the eighteen-track LP include Freddie Gibbs, Rico Nasty, Ab-Soul, Jozzy, and more.

The “money, cars and the diamonds” don’t matter for Chlöe, who is all in it for the right d*ck love. The R&B superstar is teasing a sensual new visual for the sultry track, flaunting the power of her GYAT (it’s Gen Z slang, look it up).
Grammy-Award winner Samara Joy, who became the Academy’s Best New Artist for her jazz stylings just last year, delivered an empowering ballad for Netflix’s upcoming film Shirley starring Regina King.
Pop/alt R&B star Tinashe conceptualized, choreographed and executed a stunning performance video for her most recent album in 10 days.
