The latest buzz in the hip-hop community is the announcement of Slick Rick‘s upcoming album “Victory,” which will be released on June 13, 2025. This is Slick Rick‘s first full-length project since 1999. It will feature Nas, Estelle and Giggs.
Interestingly, “Victory” will also be presented as a 30-minute visual, a mini documentary, that was executive-produced by Idris Elba and directed by Meji Alabi.
In order to show his fans and supporters a different side of him, veteran Rastafarian reggae artist Mikey General is releasing his rendition of Bobby Caldwell‘s 1970s hit “What You Won’t Do for Love.” The song was first shared in September 1978 as the lead single on Caldwell‘s debut album, and has since been covered and sampled many times, including by Tupac Shakur in the posthumous 1998 rap hit “Do for Love.”
In a statement explaining why he decided to cover this track, Mikey General said the following: “Mi no really sing cover song enno, mi really sing original song, but is a song weh people like when me sing it and ting so mi decide say me ago release it.”
Anyone who has ever attended a Mikey General concert knows that this is one of the songs presented in his live set from time to time. In fact, hearing it sung by Mikey in reggae usually results in shouts of ‘pull-up’, and ‘wheel & come again’ from the audience. It is this consistent positive feedback that has inspired him to record and release “What You Won’t Do for Love” as a reggae tune.
