T.I. Announces End Of Music Career With Double Album Including NBA Youngboy Feature, Boosie Badazz Collab Project Might Not Drop

October 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Legendary rapper and one of the leaders of the trap subgenre is getting ready to move on. T.I. wants to pass the torch to the next generation of artists. How he wants to do this is by going out with a big bang. It is certainly disheartening news that one of the OGs is not going to make any more music. However, T.I. has put in so much hard work for the rap community for over two decades. He deserves this send off and we congratulate him on a fantastic run.

The Atlanta, Georgia native spoke with the We In Miami podcast, according to AllHipHop. T.I. is also looking to explore other business ventures to build his career more. His last record will be a double album. Kill The King and Kiss The King will be the names of the two records. On top of that, T.I. revealed that one of the singles to promote the double LP will include a feature. NBA Youngboy will be on it, but he says that the collab will take a different approach that many fans are not going to expect.

However, T.I. is not done there. A collaboration album with close friend Boosie Badazz was in the works. However, it seems that there is a very small chance that it ever comes out. The rapper says, “The time that we had allotted for it we kinda passed by it.” He continues, though, “Not saying that the window can’t present itself again. We have a very healthy relationship.” Hopefully, we get that too. But, we cannot wait for what should be an incredible send-off.

What are your initial thoughts on T.I. announcing his retirement from music with a double album? Are you sad but also excited about this news? Do you think he should still drop the collaborative record with Boosie Badazz? 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 thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

September 26, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Joyner Lucas is giving Will Smith his flowers. In a sweet and sentimental IG post yesterday (Sept. 25) on Will Smith’s birthday, Lucas shared a video of the two making music together. He also wrote a heartfelt caption to match. “Dear hero,” Lucas started. “I never thought I’d ever meet you. Still trips me out that I grew up idolizing you, to then me making a record about my admiration and respect for you, to then you asking me to create a whole album with you,” he continued. “Happy Birthday @willsmith. Love you til the end of time my dear brother.”

While the recent video clip of Joyner Lucas and Will Smith collaborating on music have caught the attention of fans and media alike, it’s essential to note that their musical connection isn’t just now starting. In fact, Will Smith has shown love to Lucas on social media before. He stated in a Facebook post earlier this year, he deemed Lucas to be his favorite rapper. It’s clear that their admiration for each other’s work extends beyond the surface. Now, the two have a joint album coming together!

What truly excites fans is the potential of a collaborative album between these two remarkable talents. Furthermore, it’s worth mentioning that this isn’t the first time Will Smith and Joyner Lucas have joined forces in the world of music. Back in 2020, they collaborated on a remix of the track “Will,” a heartfelt homage to Will Smith’s illustrious career in both television and film. Their previous musical endeavor showcased their ability to craft compelling music together, laying the groundwork for what could potentially be a groundbreaking album that transcends boundaries and genres.

Additionally, Joyner Lucas’ appreciation for Will Smith’s influence extends beyond their 2020 collaboration. Earlier this year, Lucas released the track, “Devil’s Work Part 2.” This song goes into a few significant pop culture events, including the memorable Will Smith and Chris Rock confrontation at the Oscars in March 2022. Lucas rapped about a world where Will Smith hadn’t confronted him, and what things would be like, and if Rock chose a different topic to joke about. In essence, fans and music enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting the moment when Lucas and Smith can combine their creative forces. Stay tuned to HNHH for any new developments!

Dave & Central Cee Drop Surprise Joint EP “Split Decision”

June 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Collaborative projects come so often these days. Sometimes, it’s awkward pairings of rappers that don’t really make sense beyond the fact that they’re friends outside of hip-hop. However, the release of Central Cee and Dave’s surprise EP, Split Decision is a perfect pairing of two of UK rap’s luminaries. Cee and Dave gave fans a taste of the project on Friday when they dropped off “Sprinter.” However, on Sunday night, Central Cee announced that he’d be dropping off more music to celebrate music.

What fans received was their new project Split Decision, a four-song EP that highlights their poignant delivery and impeccable ear for production. The project includes the aforementioned single, along with three new records. As “Sprinter” showcased, the two have formed a bond that brings out the best of each other on wax. Throughout the project, they put their ruthless sh*t-talking to use while breezing through enchanting production, largely cemented by haunting vocal samples.

Central Cee & Dave Connect On Split Decision

The beauty of Split Decision is that Central Cee and Dave’s chemistry and outlook on the world pair up perfectly. They look back at their London upbringings, detailing the struggles they faced and contrasting those moments with the wealth they’ve accumulated. On “My 25th Birthday,” the two rappers tackle luscious piano chords and knocking drums as they detail balancing their love life with fame, elevating beyond the trap, and maneuvering through the limelight.

Dave’s contributions to the project extend beyond trading bars with Central Cee. He handles co-production on three out of the four songs on Split Decisions. However, the “Streatham” rapper allows Kyle Evans to handle the drill-centric production on the mighty closer, “UK Rap.” The majority of the project is largely filled with airy, laid-back production but Evan’s drill-heavy production puts Cee and Dave on offense as they come through with swaggering confidence and impeccable wordplay. It’s an exemplary effort by two of UK’s most important figures in rap right now. Check out Dave and Central Cee’s new EP Split Decision above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.

Curren$y & Jermaine Dupri Bring The Bounce On “Essence Fest”

March 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Curren$y and Jermaine Dupri are coming through with some heat this summer. The two rap icons began to hint at a collaborative effort last year but they didn’t necessarily provide fans with too much information on a release date. All we knew is that they had a joint project on the way titled, For Motivational Use Only. Now, there are plenty of collaborative projects that build up excitement only to be prematurely announced and never released. However, this isn’t one of them.

A collaborative album between the two doesn’t seem like an obvious choice, but Spitta never held back his appreciation for JD. Spitta previously released the single, “Jermaine Dupri” in honor of the So So Def founder, which ultimately caught JD’s attention and led to this very moment. Earlier this week, they blessed fans with “Never Enough” via a performance on From The Block. Today, they’re providing the first taste of what to expect with a nod to Curren$y’s hometown.

Curren$y & Jermaine Dupri Bring New Orleans Bounce To “Essence Fest”

Though Spitta’s usually attached to hazy production that pairs up with his smoked out flow, Jermaine Dupri has the New Orleans rapper returning to his regional roots on “Essence Fest.” The New Orleans Bounce comes clear on the production as Curren$y rides the beat effortlessly with a swagger that pulls from his days with Young Money. JD layers funky basslines with second-line drum-inspired patterns that pops out of the record for a perfect introduction to their forthcoming album.

During an interview with Essence, tCurren$y and Jermaine Dupri explained that the effort will highlight the rich history of the South’s hip-hop innovations. However, as the title For Motivational Use Only suggests, they’ll be serving up the anthem for the go-getters. “It’s just more of a real pep talk and a call to arms for people who know that this is their time and people who want to launch businesses, girls who want to open whatever their business is, the homies who want to start their shit,” Spitta said. “This is the no-excuse soundtrack for whoever wants to get out and go get it.”

Quotable Lyrics
All this, all this ‘cause I’m rich
She think she smart, she think she slick
But I break hearts, no favorites
And I play hard, take major risks
Bitch, buy me something if you fuck with me
There’s enough n***as that’s already trickin’

KXNG Crooked & Joell Ortiz Drop Collab EP, “JFKLAX”

February 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Joell Ortiz and KXNG Crooked linked up once again to drop a brand new EP, JFKLAX. Moreover, the title references both MCs’ respective home cities, although that distance doesn’t reflect the quality of the music. In fact, both rappers are in top lyrical form on this project, which is unsurprising given their old-school credentials. Furthermore, you’ll find intricate rhyme patterns, cutting punchlines, and classic flows all over this short five-track offering. That length only adds to the project’s consistency and enjoyability, as they deliver focused verses.

Overall, JFKLAX is also a pretty effective combination of classic boom-bap beats and a more contemporary trap-style beat on the track “Foe Or Friend.” Still, most of this project’s instrumental pallet comes from its heavy sampling. These sonic backgrounds bring triumphant horns, dramatic piano chords, and deep, bassy percussion to elevate the frequent collaborators‘ performance. If you’ve ever liked an East Coast rapper, this project likely holds a captivating beat or collection of verses within.

KXNG Crooked & Joell Ortiz’s JFKLAX EP: Listen

However, not everyone received some of Crooked and Ortiz’s previous collabs well, particularly some of their colleagues. Furthermore, the other two members of their supergroup Slaughterhouse, Royce da 5’9″ and Joe Budden, expressed criticism of the duo’s 2022 project, Rise & Fall Of Slaughterhouse, which did not feature Royce or Budden. “For me, it was a little anticlimactic. It was like a rollercoaster. You watch it go up. It’s going up and it’s going up, and you expect the– and then you’re let down.” After all, they expected the album to be about them, but they didn’t find any such references.

Still, a lot of the group’s disagreements and internal fights are quite unfortunate considering the caliber of lyricism they represent. Regardless, what did you think of Joell Ortiz and KXNG Crooked’s latest collaborative EP, JFKLAX? However you feel, let us know in the comments and check out the tracklist below. Also, if you haven’t heard the project yet, you can find it on your preferred streaming service or on YouTube above. As always, stick around on HNHH for the latest great music releases each week.
