May 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Metro Boomin has continuously been on the front lines of the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef. The decorated producer essentially rekindled the flame when he put out “Like That” a couple of months ago now. The record went onto spawn one of the most entertaining rap feuds in the genre’s history. At times, multiple diss records dropping on the same day. It seems that the dust is settling a bit, with fans pretty much declaring K-Dot as the winner. But Metro is seemingly still piling on Drake after “Not Like Us” was spun at a recent Lil Wayne concert.

A fan pulled up to a recent Weezy show, as evidenced by the clip from X below. In the 30-second video, it was revealed that the “Drake killshot” was being played before the Louisiana legend hit the stage. Of course, most people are aware that Wayne and Drizzy are extremely close. For that reason, it is quite shocking to see this. However, it seems that a DJ was just trying to get the crowd ready for the main event.

Metro Boomin Appears To Show Love To Lil Wayne

What is not surprising is that Metro Boomin was happy to see the Drake hate continue. It appears that the “BBL DRIZZY” producer saw the video because he coincidentally posted a Wayne track on his Instagram story. He reshared “Crazy,” off Da Drought 3 one his classic mixtapes. Who knows what Metro was actually up to, but we can only assume that it was to applaud Wayne.

April 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

GloRilla continues to thrive in 2024 for a number of reasons. The Memphis rapper started off the year with a bang due to her single “Yeah Glo!” Its messages of self-affirmation are something that everyone can get down with. It has also proven to be quite the workout track. LeBron James was bumping it loud and proud during one of his famous and rigorous training sessions. The King is known for supporting rappers across the genre, regardless of how bad he is at remembering lyrics. Glo eventually caught wind of the Lakers superstar messing with the song and they would wind up meeting in person. LeBron and his support for GloRilla and “Yeah Glo!” was a topic brought up in conversation with Shannon Sharpe.

She was the most recent guest on his hit podcast Club Shay Shay and a clip from it is gaining some attention. GloRilla is also hip to the fact that James has a foggy memory when it comes lyrics, and she made quite a funny joke about it. “LeBron knew the words. I watch LeBron rap songs and not know the words for real. He knew ‘Yeah Glo!’”

GloRilla Couldn’t Contain Her Excitement About LeBron Bumping “Yeah Glo!”

Later on in the chat, Glo also expressed how thankful she was for LeBron’s support and how nice he was when they linked up. It meant so much to her, especially since her family is a big fan of the NBA. Furthermore, she went on to mention that Bron is her second favorite player ever behind the late Kobe Bryant. Life is going great for GloRilla as she is also going to be dropping her new mixtape, Ehhthang Ehhthang, this Friday, which features “Yeah Glo!” as its lead single.

What are your thoughts on GloRilla shouting out LeBron for bumping “Yeah Glo!”? Is this song still in your rotation? Are you excited for her upcoming mixtape Ehhthang Ehhthang?

Teezo Touchdown Gets Brutally Honest Thoughts On Drake’s Co-Sign

September 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Teezo Touchdown is becoming one of the greatest success stories in music right now. Over the past two years, his eccentric style and personality have made a lot of people love him. Many listeners most likely first heard his name back in 2021 on one of the biggest mainstream rapper’s projects. He made an appearance on Tyler, The Creator’s, CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST. You can find him on the eighth track, “RUNITUP.” But his feature run did not stop there. WESTSIDE BOOGIE grabbed him for his MORE BLACK SUPERHEROES tape in 2022. However, 2023 was the year that really got people’s attention.

Don Toliver got first dibs and brought him on for Love Sick in February. Paris Texas dropped their sophomore effort MID AIR with Teezo being one of two features on it. Finally, arguably the biggest fish in the water yanked Teezo’s line. He and Travis Scott created fireworks on “MODERN JAM” and that was arguably the final turning point for him. Many music fans loved the wild energy and whimsical vocal work he laid down and it is one of the best songs on UTOPIA.

Teezo Touchdown Reflects On Nod From Drake

All of these co-signs have been great for his growth and Drake put the icing on the cake. After hearing Teezo’s debut, How Do You Sleep At Night? Drizzy said, “Tonight I just heard some of the best music ever so I am happy and I will spare you little birdies thanks to @teezotouchdown.” Complex Music interviewed the genre-bending star about it. Teezo was incredibly honored and humbled by the praise, saying “Waking up to that, seeing that. Very high moment.” But, he kept it as real as possible. He also talked about the great amount of hate he got as well. “Literally the highest day of my career was also literally bogged up like, ‘Damn… They not really liking the album.’” But he came to the realization that Drake’s compliments are much more valuable than hundreds of random people saying it is bad. We continue to wish Teezo all the success in the world, especially after his amazing record.

What are your initial thoughts on Teezo Touchdown’s gratitude for Drake’s praise on his debut album, How Do You Sleep At Night? Is Teezo going to be the next avant-garde artist to take over the mainstream? What songs are you enjoying from the project? Is it still in your rotation? We want to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.
