Maxo Kream Shares The Tracklist For ‘Personification,’ Which Features Denzel Curry, Tyler The Creator, And More

November 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

This Friday, November 15, Maxo Kream will release his fourth (or eighth, if you were to ask him) studio album, Personification. The rollout for the album has included the release of his singles “Talkin In Screw” featuring That Mexican OT and “Cracc Era” featuring Tyler The Creator, and a few guest features with the likes of Denzel Curry, with whom Maxo collaborated on “Set It.” Curry also appears on the tracklist for Personification, which Maxo shared this week, and also has appearances from fellow Texan BigXthaPlug, Houston rap legend Z-Ro, rising starts Rob49 and Skilla Baby, and Maxo’s brother, who has renamed himself Josh Kream.

Also, earlier this week, Maxo broke down the philosophy behind his new album with a short film shared to Twitter (which I will never call “X”). In the caption, Maxo writes, “Emekwanem. Trigga Maxo. Maxo C. All me all in one. I’ve had it all and lost it all. Thankful for my angels and I regret nothing. I’m still here dropping albums and my new one comes this Friday.”

BigXthaPlug Brings Charm & Realness To His Sophomore Album “TAKE CARE”

October 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Dallas, Texas native BigXthaPlug has stomped into this year with some big expectations. After two successful projects, AMAR and THE BIGGEST, he earned XXL Freshman honors. He joined fellow Texans That Mexican OT and 4batz on that list and it’s going to be interesting to see who separates themselves from one another. So far, we may have to give the slight edge to BigXthaPlug, as he arguably has the best project out all of them now with TAKE CARE. This is his sophomore alum, and it’s all him. The features are getting tossed out for this one, as BigX is looking to show us what makes him who he is as a person.

One of those is being a dad, as he expressed how much it means to him that he is one with Apple Music. The father of two tells Ebro, “My kids is what drives me. That’s the reason when I’m tired and I get up every day when I don’t get up, they’re the reason.” He makes sure to highlight just how much they inspire him on “Therapy Session,” an immediate fan favorite. “When I be away from ’em I cry / ‘Cause I love ’em the most, I’d hate for them to ever say that their daddy wasn’t right on they side.” On top of giving fans “The Largest” look behind the curtain, his producers, namely BandPlay, are bringing that Southern charm thanks to some terrific soulful sample usage from all eras.

TAKE CARE – BigXthaPlug

TAKE CARE Tracklist:

Take Care
Lost The Love

Words from WALLO267
Law & Order

BigXthaPlug Drops New Single “Change Me”

September 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Dallas’ multi-platinum hip-hop sensation BigXthaPlug has again made waves in the music world by releasing his latest single, “Change Me.” Dropped through United Masters Group and produced by BandPlay, Tony Coles, and Charley Cooks, the track is a bold declaration of BigXthaPlug’s dedication to staying true to himself despite his meteoric rise to fame.

Following the release of his high-energy music video “The Largest” earlier this week, “Change Me” showcases a new side of the rapper. With a blend of soulful vocals and a hard-hitting beat, BigXthaPlug reflects on his journey from humble beginnings to the spotlight. His sound, inspired by the classic hip-hop era of the ’70s and ’80s, is marked by his powerful storytelling and introspective lyrics.

In the track, BigXthaPlug rejects the superficiality of fame, rapping, “I’ll never change, I am the same, just hit me. The only thing that’s changed is my paper. Forget about the diamonds and chains on my pendant.” The chorus further emphasizes his determination to remain grounded, declaring, “I won’t let them change me, I’ll forever remain.”

Closing with the line, “I come out on these folks that say X changed, I am standing on 10 with my name,” BigXthaPlug reassures his fans that he remains unwavering in his authenticity. As he continues to rise, his ability to blend hard-hitting beats with raw emotion cements his place as one of the most promising voices in the hip-hop industry today.

BigXthaplug Releases Prideful New Single “The Largest”

August 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

2024 XXL Freshman and Dallas, Texas native BigXthaplug is definitely someone to keep your eyes on moving forward. There are certainly a few others that standout from this latest “graduating” class so to speak such as BossMan Dlow, That Mexican OT, and ScarLip. But with an instantly recognizable voice that he can be heard from miles away and a great ear for beats, BigX is going to be one of the topflight names. He really made a name for himself last year with two projects, AMAR and THE BIGGEST. Both of them have successful tracks such as “Texas”, “Levels”, “Mmhmm”, “Climate” with Offset, and more. Additionally, BigX showed what he could do with a more country-like beat on the Shaboozey collaboration, “Drink Don’t Need No Mix”.

That song is helping the new country superstar’s new project, Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going, do well on the charts. On top of the XXL nod and this massive single, BigXthaplug hasn’t been up to much solo wise. He teamed up with Ro$ama and 600 Ent. for the short team effort tape MEET THE 6IXERS back in May. That’s the closest he’s been to dropping anything for his own catalog. However, that has come to an end as of this weekend with “The Largest”. Produced by his frequent producer pal BandPlay, BigX raps about how far he’s come thanks to all of these aforementioned accomplishments we listed off.

On the second verse though, he gets even more braggadocious and prideful. “I just got off a tour, finna go on another one / Album dumb, finna drop me another one / Couple of Ms, finna run up another one / Super Bowl rings, s***, I had to go double ’em“. Check out the new BigX single with the link below.

“The Largest” – BigXthaplug

Quotable Lyrics:

Moved out the trenches, now look how we live
Told my BM to furnish the crib
Walk out the mall with some shoes for the kids
Deposit a check, s***, my bank full of Ms
Paid up my rent, now I’m up for the year
The view look crazy from here

Shaboozey’s Jolly ‘Drink Don’t Need No Mix’ Video With BigXthaPlug Captures The Debauchery Of A Whiskey-Filled Night

July 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Shaboozey and BigXthaPlug take over a dive bar for some drunken shenanigans in their “Drink Don’t Need No Mix” video. The video captures the debauchery as Shaboozey shoots pool and double fists a glass and a bottle of Jack Daniel’s. Bar fights, body shots, and borderline flashing punctuate the hedonistic action. It all looks like a fun night out and one humongous headache the next morning for at least one patron — but not Shaboozey, who departs with a pair of companions and a big grin at the camera.

“Drink Don’t Need No Mix” appears on Shaboozey’s new album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going, which came out in May, punctuating the genre-jumping Nigerian Virginian’s precipitous rise to stardom over the past year. After appearing twice on Beyoncé’s personal Great American Songbook, Cowboy Carter, he released the J-Kwon homage “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” jumping to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 (and launching J-Kwon back into the limelight, incidentally).

In September, Shaboozey heads out on tour in support of the new album after playing Outside Lands festival in August. It’s safe to say he’s got plenty to celebrate; let’s just hope he drinks responsibly.

You can watch Shaboozey’s “Drink Don’t Need No Mix” video with BigXthaPlug above.

21 Lil Harold & BigXthaPlug Are Becoming Stars On “Gin & Juice”

March 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

21 Lil Harold & BigXthaPlug have been two of the most entertaining up-and-comers as of late. Both borrow from their respective corners of Southern hip-hop. Lil Harold grew up in Atlanta and is a longtime friend of 21 Savage. Which makes sense, considering their stage names are the same and he utilizes the “P***y” adlib quite often with a slightly different delivery. As for BigX, he hails from Dallas, Texas. The 25-year-old possesses one of the best mic presences in modern-day rap with his deep and husky cadence.

Both also have their fair share of bangers and big-time collaborations. Lil Harold had some background vocals on Savage’s third studio album, american dream, earlier this year. You can find him on “dangerous” and “letter to my brudda.” He also had a fantastic single with JID not too long ago. Furthermore, he will be joining Savage, JID, and Nardo Wick for The American Dream Tour that kicks off in May. BigX had a big 2023 with the release of two projects, THE BIGGEST and AMAR. Those saw him work alongside Offset, Sauce Walka, Finesse2tymes and more.

Listen To “Gin & Juice” By 21 Lil Harold & BigXthaPlug

Now, these two soon-to-be-stars are teaming up for the first time on “Gin & Juice.” However, this one shares no similarities to Snoop Dogg’s classic. The beat on this song slaps hard with the soulful vocal samples that return every now and again. The bass is resonant, and the string sections add a big budget feel to everything. Both rappers deliver sticky flows as well and it all comes together. Be sure to check this one out ASAP.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “Gin & Juice,” by 21 Lil Harold and BigXthaPlug? Is this better than “Sundown” with JID, why or why not? What is your favorite element of the song and why? Who had the strongest performance on the track and why? If an album is coming soon, do these last two efforts have you excited? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

BigXthaPlug And Offset Ride The Beat On “Climate” Effortlessly

December 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Southern hip-hop has always been providing the genre with infectious hits for decades on decades. The slow-mo and wavy sounds just have something about them that gets listeners in a trance. However, some artists just hit you with endless slippery flows and intriguing cadences. One of those names who is doing this as of late is BigXthaPlug.

He has been releasing music into the world since 2019 but has been hitting his stride over the past year or so. In 2023, Plug put out his debut album, Amar. That came out in late April, but this new EP is garnering some serious buzz. THE BIGGEST is shaping up to be the perfect reminder for fans that Plug is going to be doing bigger and bigger things going forward.

Listen To “Climate” By BigXthaPlug And Offset

One of the reasons for that is because he was able to nab a feature from Offset. Together, their aggressive flow patterns are perfect compliments on the song “Climate.” THE BIGGEST dropped on December 1, but the music video for this track has just hit YouTube. Already, the visuals have raked in over 313,000 views in two days. That is good enough for number 21 on trending for music. Production is also a strong point here with its watery and plucky synths and banging trap percussion.

What are your initial thoughts on this new song, “Climate,” by BigXthaPlug and Offset? Is this the best track from Plug’s THE BIGGEST? Is he going to be someone who takes off even higher next year after his coming out party? If you were to compare him to more established rappers, who is he similar to? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around BigXthaPlug and Offset. Finally, always stay with us for all of the best song drops throughout the week.

Quotable Lyrics:

Went to the top and I shopped, I’m a socket (Hey)
Counted me out, but I do it for Rocket (Take)
I took your b**** on a jet to the tropics (Let’s go)
Post on the block with the work, come and shop
Hit the flame, make it rain, make the b**** come and mop it (Ha)
That n**** snitched for his pic’, hit the docket (Snitch)

BigXthaPlug Delivers “AMAR” Album Featuring Erica Banks, Sauce Walka, And More

February 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

There’s obviously been no shortage of rappers coming up out of the south as of late. Names like Finesse2tymes and GloRilla have been holding it down, but another artist you need to have on your radar is BigXthaPlug. The trap star comes from Dallas, Texas, and is making his voice heard with his new AMAR project.

The 13-track effort made its DSP debut on Friday (February 10). It was lead by singles such as “Safehouse,” “Texas,” and “Primetime,” all of which have brought more fans the rapper’s way. While he carries most of the tracklist on his own, BigX did recruit a few friends to help him out.

Firstly we hear a guest feature from Ro$ama on “Bad Bitches.” Following that, Sauce Walka doings him on AMAR‘s tenth title, “I Know.” Finally, the Texan calls on two female stars – Tay Money and Erica Banks – to show out alongside him on “Thick.” So far, “Switched Up” and “Rush Hour” have emerged as new fan favourites, as well as “Bacc to tha Basics.”

According to a press release, BigX was inspired by his son while creating the album. The project is named after the young boy, whose moniker means “everlasting life.” While music is his main passion, the ultimate goal for the artist is to “create an everlasting legacy that goes beyond his existence.”

Along with the project, thaPlug shared an official visual for AMAR’s final song, “Dream.” Thanks to his latest release, the rising star is obviously etching his name as one to watch within the world of hip-hop. In the future, we hope to hear more of his raw delivery and authentic storytelling.
