Jeff “Gitty” Gitelman has built a career where his name may not always be on the marquee, but his musical fingerprints are everywhere. A producer, songwriter, guitarist and multi-instrumentalist, Gitty has become a go-to collaborator for artists looking for records that feel polished without losing their humanity.

Sometimes creativity shows up in the most unexpected circumstances. For MarcLo, 11 Days was born during a period of isolation as the Los Angeles wildfires devastated the region in early 2025. Rather than allowing those days to be defined entirely by uncertainty, the multi-GRAMMY®-nominated songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist turned to music, creating a debut album rooted in resilience, gratitude and finding some light when things feel especially dark.

As one of the artists helping lead a new wave of Afrobeats, Victony has made experimentation part of his identity—and STARLIFE (OUTLAWVILLE/Encore Recordings) may be his clearest statement yet. The Nigerian artist’s sophomore album stretches beyond any single definition of the genre, moving through R&B, hip-hop, Afro-Rage and Afrohouse without losing the melodic ease that made him stand out in the first place.

With STAR LINE, Chance the Rapper embarks on his most visionary journey yet — an album that bridges continents, cultures, and consciousness. Teaming up once again with longtime collaborator DexLvL, Chance builds a vibrant mosaic of hip-hop, soul, and experimental textures that pulse with honesty and depth.
