Music notes: The Weeknd, Offset, 50 Cent and more

Will The Weeknd be on Travis Scott‘s Utopia album? Fans seem to believe he will after his bodyguard, much like Travis’ security, was spotted carrying a briefcase with the album’s title written on it. 

Contrary to previous reports, Offset is not related to the late Takeoff and his uncle Quavo. Though often referred to as Takeoff’s cousin, Offset began hanging out with him and Quavo after meeting the latter in his sixth-grade class, according to Variety.

Metro Boomin unveiled the first three features on the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Soundtrack with illustrations of the artists dressed in Spider-Man costumes. Set to appear on the project are Future, Don Toliver and James Blake.

Waka Flocka may have entered the rap game making trap music, but his latest feature is on a gospel song, Jame Fortune‘s “Voyage.” He tells HipHopDX he hopped on the song “because of how I feel today — this is where I’m vibrating at and this is what makes me happy.”

With his Final Lap Tour kicking off this summer, 50 Cent is upping his workouts at the gym. He’s going to start running 5 miles a day and hopes to lose 25 pounds. “I’ll be back in dog shape before I go. I’ma start talking mad s*** when I’m back in shape,” he said.

Ghostface Killah‘s son Infinite Coles called him a “deadbeat” while airing his grievances in a lengthy message. He claimed he’s reached out to his father to no avail and that his father is a deadbeat to all of his children.
