It's April 9th. I'm Corey with The Story, and this is Music News Today, Music News powered by AI. R&B legend Dave Hollister just broke a 10-year solo drought by signing with the revamped death row records, now backed by Snoop Dogg and Gamma. He's dropping his new single, Thought You New, as the first taste of what's next, his initial solo track since the 2016 album, The M.A. Manuscript. This move hits like a full circle vibe, since Hollister kicked off his career right there at death row in their early days. He lays soul into two-pot classics, like Keep You Head Up, and Brenda's got a baby, giving those tracks their heartfelt edge. Fans are buzzing hard about this bridge between old school hip-hop grit and smooth-grown man R&B. Hollister's rep as the ghetto preacher goes back to his black street days and gold albums like ghetto hymns, where he unpacked real talk on love and life. This single, produced by Snoop Dogg and Julio Loa, packs that signature storytelling punch.

No full album deeds yet, but is paving the way for a project, plus whispers of solo tourdates this summer after his gigs with the R&B crew, the Chi. Stream Thought You New Everywhere Now, on death row in Gamma Hollister's back, owning that time was lame once more.
