Chief Keef & Quavo Aren’t Playing Around On “Never Fly Here”

by

Chief Keef fans were able to take a huge sigh of relief after he finally came through and delivered Almighty So 2. It is the long-awaited follow-up to the first installment, which saw a release about 11 years ago. 2024 has been another busy one for the influential Chicago talent, as this tape also supersedes his March collaborative mixtape with a fellow legend, Mike WiLL Made-It. With both projects out, some are saying DIRTY NACHOS was better than Almighty So 2. For us, we are just enjoying the ride and appreciating what Chief Keef brought, especially with songs like “Never Fly Here.”

This one of just a handful of cuts that possessed a feature or two. However, this one may have the biggest guest of them all, which is Quavo. Not only is it just because a former Migos member is on the track, it is also because this is their first joint effort ever. It might be a hard thing to realize, especially with how long each rapper has been in the game, and that they came up at the same time.

Listen To “Never Fly Here” By Chief Keef & Quavo

Like this mixtape, this collaboration on “Never Fly Here” was well worth the wait. Fans have been taking a liking toward this trap banger numbers wise, but also in terms of quality. This track has one of the stronger instrumentals on the record, especially when the sped-up piano make an entrance. Keef and Quavo display solid chemistry and trade some funny and sticky bars to boot.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song “” by Chief Keef? Is this the best track from his new mixtape Almighty So 2, why or why not? Where do you rank this project amongst the rest of his catalog? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Quotable Lyrics:

Put that s*** on like AB, ballin’ on them like KD
I’ma need me a straitjacket, “Why?” ‘Cause I’m goin’ crazy
She wanna be my Queen Bey, want me to be her JAY-Z
B**** asked me for a Jeep, told her, “This Maybelline, b****, that’s maybe”
“So, when you goin’ to the top?” Lil’ bro said, “Take me”
I used to be on the block, boy, but I don’t know no Tay Keith

Chief Keef, Ballout, & G Herbo Might Have The Hardest Track Of 2024 With “Neph Nem”

by

Chief Keef might be the most reliable artist when it comes to crafting elite, truck-knocking bangers. Sure, it is hard to count on him to drop when he says, but when he does, there are not many better than him. His eagerly-awaited mixtape Almighty So 2 is chock-full of said slappers and it is safe to say we will have this LP on repeat all week long and beyond. One track we have been revisiting over the last 24 hours and change has been “Neph Nem” with fellow Chicago vets, Ballout and G Herbo.

The second record on the tape is equal parts anthemic, grand, and stank-face inducing. The instrumental may be the most hard-hitting on the project, which is saying a lot considering how many stand out beats there are. Like most of the latter, Chief Keef handles this one by himself and it is excellently put together. From the orchestral background vocals to the bells and rapid fire 808s, it sounds like a lot going on. But no element overpowers the other.

Listen To “Neph Nem” By Chief Keef, Ballout, & G Herbo

As for the performances, everyone pitches in aggressive flows, and Sosa might provide the most hilarious bars on the record. “She told him she ain’t hop on my d**k (Woo), she fell on it (Woo) / Had to leave by eleven, this b**** act like 12, homie (Woo, woo).” All in all, this project and this track are so enjoyable. It might be up for one of the best trap/drill albums over the last few years.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song “Neph Nem” by Chief Keef? Is this the best track from his new mixtape Almighty So 2, why or why not? Who had the stronger performance on this cut? Where do you rank this mixtape amongst the rest of his catalog and is it better than the original? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Quotable Lyrics:

B**** brought her friends and I put the squad on it (Woo, woo)
This ain’t your regular truck (Woo), it’s a mod on it (Woo)
Wide-body kit look like a dad bod on it (Woo, woo)
They like, “Chief So, your cup cost a BBL, don’t it?” (Woo, woo)
Jewelry in the treasure box (Woo), call me Dragon Tales, homie (Woo)
That USPS, still check (Woo), I got mail, don’t it? (Woo)

Chief Keef Reminds Us Of His Greatness On “Almighty So 2”

by

One of hip-hop’s most elusive figures has finally delivered on the promise he made to his fan base about five years ago. Yes, you heard that right, Chicago drill icon Chief Keef has come through with Almighty So 2. Some may still be holding a grudge, but we are just happy this sequel is here. This is now his second project of the year, following up his collaborative mixtape with producer Mike WiLL Made-It DIRTY NACHOS. There were some rumblings that Chief Keef was going to drop Almighty So 2 back at the end of March.

However, after the rapper/producer tandem dropped their effort instead, hope dwindled that we would get two tapes in one month. Luckily though, we did not have to wait another 10 years for it. We mentioned how we were just elated that Keef followed through, but that does not mean squat if the project is a dud. Thankfully, the now 28-year-old veteran is bringing some of his most consistent material.

Keef is rapping like he still has something to prove and the beats (which he had a hand in) just slap. The samples are incorporated to perfection and there is a bevy of them. Features are also a major factor to the tape’s success, too. Lil Gnar, Tierra Whack, Sexyy Red, Quavo, G Herbo, Ballout, all bring something to the table. You can check out Almighty So 2 with the links above.

Chief Keef Delivers Highly-Anticipated ‘Almighty So 2’

Chief Keef Delivers Highly-Anticipated 'Almighty So 2'

Chicago rap icon Chief Keef has released his highly anticipated album Almighty So 2 via his label, 43B, in partnership with BMG and RBC Records. The sequel to his acclaimed 2013 project “Almighty So,” the new album spans 16 tracks and delves deep into Keef’s artistic evolution.

Crafted over two years, Almighty So 2 showcases Keef’s growth as an emcee and producer. With production largely handled by the artist, the album boasts a raw and unfiltered sound, focusing on Keef’s sharp lyricism and dynamic vocal delivery.

The album kicks off with the epic intro “Almighty,” featuring a sample of Carl Orff’s “Carmina Burana.” This sets the tone for the larger-than-life narrative that unfolds. From there, Keef explores a range of sounds and influences, from classic hip-hop samples to modern trap beats, showcasing his versatility and creativity.

Keef enlists a lineup of collaborators to join him on the project, including Sexyy Red, Quavo, G Herbo, Tierra Whack, Lil Gnar, and Ballout. Each adds their unique flair to the album.

Almighty So 2 follows a string of successful releases from Keef, including the acclaimed mixtape “DIRTY NACHOS,” produced in collaboration with Mike-WiLL Made-It. With his latest album, Chief Keef reaffirms his status as one of hip-hop’s most innovative and influential artists, delivering a project that will resonate with fans, old and new.

Almighty So 2 is now available for streaming on all major platforms via 43B / RBC Records.

When Will Chief Keef’s New Album ‘Almighty So 2’ Be On Apple Music?

by

When we last heard about Chief Keef’s fifth studio album, Almighty So 2, the “I Don’t Like” rapper was aiming for a spring 2023 release date. However, Keef clearly felt that the album still wasn’t quite ready — despite having been in the works for nearly five years at the time — and again delayed the release. This week, though, he not only gave fans a solid release date, but he also announced it with a dramatic trailer, which you can watch above. So, when can you finally give Almighty So 2 a stream on Apple Music (or the DSP of your choice)?

Well, Almighty So 2 is due on Friday, May 10 via Keef’s independent label 43B. That means it will most likely be available to stream at midnight Eastern (9 PM Pacific). One of the benefits of being independent means that Keef has more flexibility to set release dates — hence the long wait for the album’s release — but it also means that the veteran rapper has dotted all his “i”s and crossed all his “t”s if he’s finally determined the album is ready to put out.

Almighty So 2 is due on 5/10 and will feature G Herbo, Lil Gnar, Quavo, Sexyy Red, and Tierra Whack, with production from Mike Will Made It. You can find more info here.

When Will Chief Keef’s New Album ‘Almighty So 2’ Be On Spotify?

by

Despite his awe-inspiring productivity in releasing mixtapes, Chief Keef apparently hasn’t released an official album since 2021’s 4NEM. This Friday, May 10, Keef will release his fifth studio album, Almighty So 2, a project he’s been working on since 2019. After years of false starts and promising updates, Keef announced the official release date early this week with the above trailer, revealing that the album will feature G Herbo, Lil Gnar, Quavo, Sexyy Red, and Tierra Whack, with production from Mike Will Made It. So when will Almighty So 2 be available to stream on services like Apple Music, Spotify, and Tidal?

The usual drill for streaming releases (heh) is that they will appear on DSPs at midnight ET (9 PM Pacific), although not every streaming service updates its home page right away. You’re likely best off waiting until that time, then searching the artist or album name directly. While Almighty So 2 has taken nearly five years to complete, Chief Keef is a veteran of the independent music scene (at just 28 years old, no less), so he’s likely got his ducks in a row and won’t be plagued by the sort of release issues that have haunted Keef’s fellow Chicagoan Kanye West.

Almighty So 2 is due on 5/10 via 43B. You can get more info here.

Chief Keef’s “Almighty So 2” Might Drop This Friday… Yet Again

by

We’re not uploading an old article on accident, nor should you be concerned by the deja vu you’re feeling: this has just been an unfortunately regular occurrence. It was recently announced on social media that Chief Keef’s long-awaited project Almighty So 2 is dropping this Friday (May 10), which has fans feeling skeptical. Outlets backed up this new claim with what seems to be an Apple Music pre-save tracklist featuring Ballout, G Herbo, Lil Gnar, Tierra Whack, Sexyy Red, and Quavo. The DIRTY NACHOS rapper already dropped that mixtape earlier this year, but there’s even more material on the way.

Or is there? A lot of hardcore Chief Keef fans and rap listeners alike pointed out that Almighty So 2 has been marred with delay after delay, so much so that many won’t believe it until they see it. Somebody hold our liquor, because he really turned into a different version of Kanye West, Playboi Carti, and other notorious non-droppers in the hip-hop game. We don’t know for sure what caused these pushbacks, but regardless, this Friday represents a big chance for everyone to rejoice and finally get this albatross off our necks. Or for massive disappointment… Who knows?

Chief Keef’s Alleged Almighty So 2 Tracklist & Release Date

Elsewhere, Chief Keef is looking to return to a Chicago stage for the first time in a decade to perform at Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash this year. We’re sure that with a whole lot of new material (assuming that Almighty So 2 actually comes out), fans will have a lot of fresh cuts and classics to enjoy if nothing happens with the performance. Tickets are still available on their website if you want to attend. Otherwise, we’re sure the Internet will keep us updated with some FOMO clips.

Chief Keef is also firmly on the Sexyy Red train, as the two seem to have developed a strong artistic bond as of late. With some collaborations under their belt, public appearances, and on-stream phone calls, it seems like a great dynamic duo for some grimy bangers. They’ll apparently collaborate once more if Almighty So 2 drops this week, which is pretty exciting. But history shows us that all we can do is wait until we actually see it for ourselves.
