Polo G and Migos are currently competing for the top spot on next week's Billboard 200-- and it looks like Capalot may have a slight lead over the three-man group as evidenced by their respective first-week projections. In addition to their amazing first-week numbers, both artists have landed multiple new songs on our weekly-updated Staff Picks Playlist.
With the releases of Migos' Culture III and Polo G's Hall Of Fame, our editors had their hands filled with new music over the weekend. That wasn't even all of it. Pi'erre Bourne finally released The Life of Pi'erre 5. Kodak Black came through with a special project for his birthday. Larry June dropped a mindful new album. Bobby Sessions released a feature-filled album called Manifest. Blog page 6ixbuzz uploaded a project highlighting Canada's best young talent in hip-hop. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
With so much new music being released this last week, we got a chance to put together a solid new playlist filled with our favorites from the pack. If you're curious to see what's been playing in our headphones as we get our work done, check out our individual selections below. Be sure to check out the new update of the Staff Picks Playlist on SoundCloud and let us know who has the best picks this week.
