This week’s edition of “Fire Emoji” is not to be missed. 2 Chainz came through with a new single titled “NO TV,” which sees the rapper pulling off one of the weirder flows he’s performed. He raps “No TV, come see me, I’m flexin’ in 3D, I’m big dawg, I’m peewee, jetski, seaweed” for a wacky, infectious chorus. Things get even stranger by the second verse, when Chainz’s voice gets altered for the second half of each bar into a high pitched robotic sound.

Swae Lee also dropped off a new track this week. “Someone Said,” is the first single from Lee of 2020 and features his immediately recognizable “SICKO MODE” adlib, “someone said.” Lee promised fans he would make a song from the adlib back in 2018 tweeting, “Imma make this a whole song with like verses and all for y’all.” One-year-and-a-half later and the track has found its way to our “Fire Emoji” playlist.

The past year has been particularly fruitful for Nigerian standout Burna Boy and now he will be celebrating the culmination of such success with his "Twice As Tall" world tour set to kick off in May of this year.

Largely staged in the summer season, the tour's schedule sees the African Giant making stops at more than a few festivals, including the Broccoli City fest in Washington D.C, Philly's Roots Picnic, Paris' Lollapalooza, the UK's Glastonbury, and even Montreal's Osheaga set. Elsewhere, he'll enjoy solo outings in cities such as Atlanta, Boston, Denver, Miami, and New York. Mune 28th is when his European leg commences, exclusively hosting festival dates across the continent.

Roots Picnic has established itself as one of the premier music festivals catering to hip-hop fans around the nation and, this year, with headliners like Meek Mill, DaBaby, and Summer Walker, we’re in for another amazing show. While most festivals pack a weekend full of activities, performances, and music-centric showcases into three days, the Roots Picnic is doing so in one single day, choosing Saturday, May 30 to return to Philadelphia’s Mann Center.

Questlove officially announced the line-up for the 2020 edition of Roots Picnic, confirming some of the most exciting profiles for performances at the festival. The headliners will surely be enough to bring out a sell-out crowd to Philly but, further down the card, a slew of discovery-worthy names are listed for you to enjoy. The soulful Snoh Aalegra will be bringing her brand of R&B to the stage with Burna Boy, Thundercat, Griselda, Baby Rose, SiR, Buddy, and more all slated to make additional appearances. The Roots will also be presenting a soul showcase featuring the likes of Brandy, SWV, and Musiq Soulchild.

If you’ve had enough of music and you just want to chill and dive into a conversation with some of the top minds in the game, you’ll have a chance to do that too with Elliott Wilson and Questlove both bringing their shows to Roots Picnic.

The event will take place on May 30. Tickets are available on Friday at noon.

Broccoli City Fest isn’t like other music festivals. Located at Washington, DC’s RFK Stadium, it doesn’t only seek to provide a musical experience, but a communal one. The festival is organized by Broccoli City, a project that is dedicated to “mobilizing and educating urban millennials through social impact campaigns and major events.” There are opportunities to learn about and get involved with sustainability initiatives on site, while also getting the chance to see a selection of today’s hottest artists. Community ties are also built through supporting local vendors at the pop-up marketplace. 

This year, Broccoli City Fest will be headlined by DaBaby, Roddy Ricch and Megan Thee Stallion – three rappers who were 2019 MVPs and are shaping up to be just as impactful in 2020. The lineup doesn’t solely consist of hip hop acts, though. Tastes of R&B are provided by Ari Lennox and Lucky Daye. Burna Boy, Doja Cat and IDK are sure to bring exhilarating sets. Soulection is curating a mini-lineup that features the likes of Andre Power, Esta and Sasha Marie. If you’re not sold already, the festival poster teases that more special guests will be announced. 

Broccoli City Fest will take place on May 7-9. General admission and VIP passes are now available.
