R&B/Hip-Hop Fresh Picks of the Week: Gabriel Jacoby, Lola Brooke, Alissia, Wale & More

From babies to albums, the past weekend was packed with new arrivals.

On Thursday (Nov. 13), Cardi B announced that she and her boyfriend, New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs, welcomed their first child together, a baby boy. While his name is still unconfirmed, Cardi’s baby boy joins her three kids with ex-husband Offset: 7-year-old daughter Kulture, 4-year-old son Wave, and 1-year-old daughter Blossom. Fittingly, the Bronx star used “Hello,” a triumphant cut from her new Am I the Drama? LP, to announce the news, which also alluded to her imminent Little Miss Drama world tour kickoff (Feb. 11, 2026).

    While Bardi expanded her family, her Drama collaborator, Summer Walker, expanded her discography. On Friday (Nov. 14), the ATL R&B superstar unleashed her third studio album, Finally Over It, a conclusion to the trilogy she began with her 2019 debut studio album, Over It. Featuring an army of guest stars — including Anderson .Paak, Teddy Swims, Doja Cat, Latto, Sexyy Red, Chris Brown, Bryson Tiller, Monaleo, GloRilla, Mariah the Scientist, and more — Finally Over It also flips classics from Beyoncé (2003’s “Yes”) and Mariah Carey (1995’s “Always Be My Baby”).

    In less celebratory news, Tyler, the Creator was forced to reschedule this year’s edition of Camp Flog Gnaw, which was slated to take over the Dodger Stadium Grounds last weekend (Nov. 15-16), due to an “incoming atmospheric rain storm.” The festival’s lineup will evolve to accommodate the new dates, but Tyler himself will still take the stage mere weeks after scoring five 2026 Grammy nominations, including album of the year and best rap album with Chromakopia and best alternative music album with Don’t Tap the Glass. Camp Flog Gnaw 2025 will now take place next weekend (Nov. 22-23).
