Jim Legxacy Announces New Mixtape Black British Music
Press Release – The Label Generational talent Jim Legxacy announces the release of his long-awaited new mixtape, black british music (2025) on July 18th via XL Recordings.A rapper with intensity, a vocalist with passion and a producer who harnesses nostalgia to command the future, the project is poised to earn era-defining significance. Critical to UK music in 2025, Jim's prolific output forever tells an important story. Always ahead of the game, his songwriting holds a mirror up to the Black British experience in which himself and his peers are reflected. He stands proudly but humbly at the helm of a movement; a new generation of storytellers and pioneers carving a path out of the comfort of the underground, always pushing upwards. Creating space for complexity, sensitivity, and experimentation, black british music (2025) not only reshapes expectations of what UK music can sound like, but what it can stand for. The announcement succeeds his latest single ' stick ' which dropped alongside a video from Rohan Dil shot partly on a Blackberry, a warpspeed visual collage of Jim Legxacy's London through the lens of his coming of age. It was previewed on the since-mythologised livestream from Plaqueboymax which featured fellow underground heavyweights YT, Fimiguerrero and Len. He kicked off the mixtape with one of his most resonant tracks to date, ' father ', before ramping up the anticipation for black british music (2025) by doing his first ever video chat on Kids Take Over. 2024 saw Jim release ' nothings changed (!) ' – a heartfelt tribute to his sister's life and legacy before he played his first ever show at The Albany in Deptford to a sold out, mesmerised crowd. Later that year he released ' aggressive ' as the first real taster of the black british music (2025) sound, and his first release on XL Recordings. Music has always formed part of Jim's identity. His ever evolving, kaleidoscopic sound draws influence from all genres, distinctly RnB, soul, pop, grime, midwest emo, afro beats and alternative. Jim's artistic journey properly began in 2018, dropping multiple singles and two longer form projects (Dynasty Program: A Metrical Composition Inspired by the Nights Spent as The Raiider; and Citadel) which displayed his artistic growth, versatility, and vulnerability, all whilst battling homelessness. 2023 saw him release his latest mixtape homeless n*gga pop music to widespread critical acclaim. Jim has already garnered support and cosigns from fellow artists including Dave, Stormzy, Central Cee, Headie One, Skepta, Loski, Jack Harlow and recently Fred again...

FaZe Clan July 4th party recap: All viral controversies, streamer drama, comebacks, beefs, and more!
(Image via @FaZeAdaptLive/YouTube) Every July 4th brings fireworks, but this year, FaZe Clan's explosive Independence Day party in LA set the internet on fire in more ways than one. What started as a mega gathering of streamers, creators, and online icons quickly turned into a headline-worthy spectacle filled with viral moments, unexpected reunions, confrontations, and drama. Here's a breakdown of everything that had the internet talking. 1. A Star-Studded Chaos Streamed Live From Twitch to Twitter, FaZe's July 4th bash dominated timelines. Not only did top-tier creators like Extra Emily, Plaqueboymax, and Sakura Shymko make appearances, but streamers from OTK, OTV, and even YouTube influencers joined the madness. With multiple livestreams running simultaneously and cameras everywhere, the party became one big unfiltered reality show — broadcast straight to the internet. 2. 'Jakura' Kiss Breaks the Internet Nothing got fans more excited than a surprise 'Jakura' moment, the now-fan-favorite duo Jason (Jasontheween) and Sakura Shymko. During a casual photo op, Sakura gave Jason a kiss on the cheek, sending him into an adorable meltdown on stream. 'Oh my God… ain't no way bruh,' Jason exclaimed as he blushed and walked off-camera. The moment went instantly viral, with fans fueling relationship rumors and clipping the interaction from every angle. "Jakura" just became the ship of the season. 3. NotQuiteLikeDub vs. FaZe Security One of the more awkward moments of the night involved streamer NotQuiteLikeDub. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Our one of a kind Patented Cold Water Extraction Process Superior Ginseng Undo While others freely streamed the party, Dub was told by FaZe security to stop broadcasting or leave. 'If I can't stream it, I can't be here,' he said before walking out. Plaqueboymax Returns To Stream 4. Plaqueboymax's Unexpected Return After a month-long hiatus from streaming, FaZe's own Plaqueboymax made a surprise appearance that had fans buzzing. Though he didn't go live himself, Max popped up in multiple livestreams, most notably in an emotional moment with fellow FaZe member Lacy. 'We gon' take a shot, I swear to God…' Max said as he warmed up to the party vibe. Extra Emily also fangirled during her interaction with Max, making it one of the most rewatched clips of the night. 5. Wendy Ortiz Caught in Late-Night Altercation As night fell, the mood shifted. Streamer Wendy Ortiz was caught on camera in a heated altercation outside the FaZe house. 'Get the fk out of here, bch, you're f**king weird!' she shouted at another attendee. Security intervened quickly, separating Wendy and the other woman before things escalated further. Wendy's sister Evelyn also joined in, adding fuel to the fire. Fortunately, things were defused before any real damage was done — but not before clips of the incident blew up online. 6. Extra Emily and Stable Ronaldo's Tense-but-Playful Face-Off In a semi-spicy, mostly-funny exchange, Extra Emily confronted Stable Ronaldo poolside, demanding compensation for 'five hate threads.' He replied with 'How about five apologies?' and actually delivered. What could've been a tense feud turned into a quirky apology segment, reminding everyone: streamers are way too online — even at parties. Viral Clips Take Over Twitch and TikTok By the end of the night, FaZe's party had taken over the internet. At one point, 4 of the top 8 most-viewed Twitch clips in 24 hours came directly from the party. TikTok wasn't far behind — short clips of Jason and Sakura, Max's cameos, and Wendy's altercation racked up millions of views within hours. Stay tuned. Because if this is how FaZe celebrates freedom, the next party might just break the internet all over again. Game On Season 1 continues with Mirabai Chanu's inspiring story. Watch Episode 2 here.
