It’s been a pretty great year so far as music pertains. Everything else has been proper garbage but hey, at least we’ve got some good new music. And it’s consistent too. Every week, we’ve seen some of the industry’s heavy hitters drop off either a new album, a single, or a project in between. Last week was no different.

In the last seven days, we saw releases from DaBaby, Westside Gunn, a new single from Playboi Carti, a 4/20 release from Wiz Khalifa, and more. That’s pretty special if you ask me. All of those are represented on the brand new update of our TIDAL-exclusive staff-curated playlist TIDAL Wave.

This week, we start things off with a stand-out from DaBaby’s new album Blame It On Baby. His collaborative single “ROCKSTAR” with Roddy Ricch sees the two breakout stars connecting before we head into more of a hype zone, bringing that Playboi Carti “@ MEH” to your ears. 

There are a few surprises buried in the playlist this week, including one selection from Dr. Dre’s The Chronic, which was recently added to streaming services for the first time.
