It’s fair to say that the past week has been a fairly interesting point of the year. Much of the new releases were overshadowed last night as Kanye West projected his video for “New Slaves” on the side random building across the globe. Fans and workers in the industry were rushing out into the streets in numbers in attempt to catch a glimpse, take a video or post snippets of the action onto Vine. Earlier in the week, we were also able to take a look at this year’s exciting Rock The Bells and OVO Fest lineups.
In terms of new singles that were released, we heard music from Cam’ron, PartyNextDoor, A$AP Ferg, Ryan Hemsworth, Rick Ross, Kelly Rowland, Chuck Inglish, The Weeknd and many more. Full projects were provided by the likes of Daft Punk, Eve, Troy Ave, JMSN and Lee Bannon.
Find out what happened over the past seven days with The Week OnSMASH.
