Rhomar Jessy – Buck (ABC)
J. Crum linked up with indie tribe. founder nobigdyl. for his new single, MADE FOR THIS. The song was produced by frequent collaborator Tory Hooks. This anthem is all about what owning our calling and walking in our purpose.
"Sometimes we hit walls and it can lead us to question if we are really supposed to be doing this," says Crum. "But you know if God led you to this, He will bring you through it. We were made for these moments."
MADE FOR THIS is the fourth song released from J. Crum's Vigilantes Vol. 1 series. Expect new music from J. Crum every 2 weeks this Summer/Fall.

A day after Jay-Z announced that his Roc Nation company was partnering with the NFL, the rap icon explained that he still supports protesting, kneeling and NFL player Colin Kaepernick, but he’s also interested in working with the league to make substantial changes.
RMG - Whole Team Winning Featuring Derek Minor, Canon, Byron Juane, & Tony Tillman
Whole Team Winning by Derek Minor and his label mates at Reflection Music Group, includes 12 anthemic, team-oriented hip-hop/trap songs perfect for sports placements. After the success of Derek's previous album Going Up, clients from the NBA, NFL, and NCAA requested an album that focused on themes like teamwork, training, and domination, specifically for their summer training camps. Tracks like "Who Gon Stop Us", and "Get Out The Way" are perfect examples of fulfilling that need. Lyrics focused on words like "we", "us", and "team" give this album its unique place in the sports world.

THINGS we found along the way
Popeyes
Popeyes and Chick-fil-A are officially at war over chicken sandwiches, though right now it’s a battle mostly of subtweets on Twitter. That’s good, as modern warfare generally doesn’t pause on Sundays anymore and actual violence over fast food is certainly frowned upon.
In early August, Popeyes announced that it would release a legitimate chicken sandwich nationwide, taking the food beloved by many as their fast food guilty pleasure and putting it on a bun with pickles.
LeBron James is speaking out about the NCAA's new rule, which LeBron believes unfairly targets him and his close friend and agent Rich Paul, pictured right. The new NCAA policy has been dubbed the "Rich Paul Rule", even though it doesn't mention him at all.
Have a great week folks.
