That Mexican OT, Currensy & Les Travel Back To “1982” On New Single: Stream

by

After destroying Denzel Curry’s “BLACK FLAG FREESTYLE,” That Mexican OT is still bringing some boisterous energy to the rap game through fiery verses. His latest example of this is his new collaboration with Curren$y and Le$, “1982.” Moreover, this track consists of a pretty smooth and crisp drum beat, distant but dramatic horns, and atmospheric embellishments. The Texas MC is as charismatic and confident as ever on this cut, showing off the credentials that landed him on the 2024 XXL Freshman Class.

Of course, That Mexican OT’s drowsy but powerful vocal delivery is a big part of this appeal, but on “1982,” he flexes some dynamic and well-structured flows with dominant skill. Le$ chills things out on the second verse with a more straightforward flow, and Curren$y’s appearance on the last third is even more woozy and engaging when it comes to his rhyme schemes. The “AR” MC got one with this single, and mixed hype with harmony in a pretty unique way.

That Mexican OT, Le$, and Curren$y will probably drop more material in 2024, and if it keeps building off the strength of cuts like “Talkin In Screw,” then we’re in for some treats. If you haven’t heard “1982” yet, you can find it on your preferred streaming service or check out the music video on YouTube below. Down there, you can also find some standout bars plus the comments section for you to leave your thoughts on the track. As always, stick around on HNHH for more of the hottest rap releases around the clock.

Quotable Lyrics
I just kick back and watch the route, got me feeling like I’m Cam,

Curren$y & MonstaBeatz Are A “Radioactive” Combo On Their New Collaboration Album

by

Louisiana rapper Curren$y is still riding on high on Highway 600, as he drops another collab tape called Radioactive alongside MonstaBeatz. This is the prolific talent’s second LP release of 2024 and it follows up on the aforementioned project with Trauma Tone. As much as Curren$y loves to make lowkey slappers, he might enjoy working with producers on his LPs even more. MonstaBeatz, in terms of discography, is not as reputable of a name as a Trauma Tone. But when you delve into the 12 tracks here you are going to be pleasantly surprised. Even with such a minimal history together (“Park Bench” with Smoke DZA), Monsta selects beats that suit Curren$y’s hazy style.

Druggy trap instrumentals are the name of the game once again. However, MonstaBeatz also mixes in some solid synth and tone work to mix things up a bit. It sort of gives the tape a West Coast flavor. Overall, it is quite the toss-up between if Curren$y’s performances are better on Radioactive or Highway 600. Also making this a tougher decision are the features. Jay Worthy, Fiend (twice), DeeLow Diamond Man, and Fendi P are all great and offer some nice cadence switch-ups. So, once again, it comes down to whether or not you prefer them over Don Toliver and Maxo Kream. While we enjoy both from Curren$y this year, check out Radioactive for yourself and let us know your thoughts below.

Curren$y & Trauma Tone Curate Eight New Songs For “Highway 600 (Deluxe)”

by

Longtime hip-hop veterans Curren$y and Trauma Tone dropped their newest collaboration project, Highway 600. They did so back in the middle of December in 2023. It was a condensed, nine-track project that went light on the features and brought loads of kick back vibes. If you had to conjure up an album that was meant for those easy-breezy nights at the crib, this would be it.

Curren$y was following up three other LPs before this one. It was another busy year for the Lousiana product, as he also squeezed out 14 singles. Some of the highlights from Highway 600 include the Don Toliver cut “Coming Home” and “All F****d Up.” Now, the rapper and producer duo is delivering a deluxe featuring eight new songs.

Curren$y, Trauma Tone, And Don Toliver Have The Perfect Track For The Nighttime With “Coming Home”

by

Curren$y knows how to curate solid tracks for when you want to kick back and blaze it up. Additionally, he provides music for the nighttime drives with the windows down in the summer. On his most recent tape, he delivers on that. Just this past weekend, the Louisiana rapper came through with Highway 600.

It is a nine-song collaborative tape that sees the veteran team up with Trauma Tone. The Virginia-born producer worked alongside Kino Beats to conjure up “Coming Home.” It has a Southern hip-hop tinge that perfectly suits the feature on it. Don Toliver continues his strong guest appearance run here too.

Shockingly, the crooner is not on the hook for this song. He spits a verse but it still does a good job deviating from Curren$y’s deep and raspy delivery. If you are looking for a track that fits the vibes we mentioned, this one is for you. You can listen to it with the YouTube link above.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new song, “Coming Home,” by Trauma Tone, Curren$y, and Don Toliver? Is this the best track on Highway 600, why or why not?

In a ’96 Impala, Forgiattos, paper tags
On the gas, got a squadron motor growlin’ when I pass
If you spot me then just holla, I can’t stop, I gotta mash
Grab a bag split in half, drag a portion to the stash
Rollin’ fire with my staff, parking lot full of that
It’s just so cold, you don’t even know what you’re lookin’ at

The Alchemist, Currensy, Boldy James & Westside Gunn Unleash “No Yeast” Remix

by

These artists have already had a prolific, very successful, and acclaimed 2023, but would they really be the amazing hip-hop figures we adore if they didn’t keep striking when the iron is hot? Moreover, The Alchemist, Curren$y, Boldy James, and Westside Gunn just dropped a remix to “No Yeast.” This cut appeared on Uncle Al and Spitta’s 2022 collab album Continuance, and featured the Detroit MC. However, this isn’t a question of just throwing a verse from the Griselda icon on here; each lyricist wrote a new verse for it. It would’ve been cool to see the producer switch up the beat a little bit, but with three brand-new sets of bars to sink our teeth into, how could we complain?

Furthermore, the instrumental here is a tender sample flip with gorgeous vocals, deep bass, and dreamy guitar lines, plus some ambient applause noise. The Alchemist dominates these soundscapes, and always knows how to keep up potent chemistry with the rappers he works with. In this case, this provides a warm bed for Boldy James, Curren$y, and Westside Gunn to come through with confident, emphatic, but still reflective and laidback verses. Well, Flygod still comes through with his trademark energy, charisma, and braggadocious attitude as the brand-new artist over this beat. Even when he switched to trap-inspired sounds on his 2023 album And Then You Pray For Me, he always showed why he’s so captivating as a mic presence and writer.

Meanwhile, Boldy James opens the track up with evocative writing about the world around him and what he needs to get by. Curren$y balances out his somber flow with Gunn’s bravado, closing the song out with a solidly boastful but grounded verse. After The Alchemist’s prolific run, the latest of which is his Flying High, Part 2 EP- and that of the MCs here- it’s no wonder everything they touch turns to gold. If you haven’t heard the “No Yeast” remix yet, find it on your preferred streaming service and peep some standout bars from it down below. As always, keep checking in with HNHH for more great hip-hop each week.

by

Freddie Gibbs Shuts Down “Fetti 2” Rumors, Speaks On Currensy Relationship

by

Freddie Gibbs and Curren$y are well-known for putting out remarkable collaboration projects, especially the one they have with each other. They released Fetti with The Alchemist back in 2018, and fans recently brought up that rumors of a sequel don’t seem promising. Moreover, this is because on Currensy’s latest album, VICES with Harry Fraud, he collaborated with some of Gibbs’ opposition, namely Benny The Butcher and Jim Jones. Via Twitter, the Indiana rapper responded to these claims and said that a sequel to Fetti was never in the cards. Also, he apparently took to an IG burner account to allege that the New Orleans MC “s***ted” on their first outing together.

“Damn Currensy f***ing with all of Freddie Gibbs’ enemies,” one user tweeted. “Guess we not getting a Fetti 2.” “We wasn’t gon’ get that s**t regardless,” Freddie responded. “I’d bet the house Currensy wasn’t holding his breath,” another fan remarked. ‘You’ll be one homeless n***a,” the Big Boss Rabbit replied. Elsewhere, he said that a sequel “was never alive” in response to people saying “RIP Fetti 2.” On his supposed burner Instagram account, he appeared to elaborate on these claims.

Freddie Gibbs Says Fetti 2 Isn’t Happening

“N***a s***ted on our project,” Freddie Gibbs allegedly claimed. “Didn’t shoot one video or do one show. I ain’t get mad I just subtracted him from the equation and me and Al made another classic went to the Grammys. End of story.” While this suggests that something went down between the two, the Indiana artist’s words also hint at there not really being any hard feelings. Still, it’s unclear how this will develop, and whether Currensy working with the rappers Freddie beefed with was a deliberately calculated move. At the end of the day, that’s purely speculative.

Regardless, these are two of the most prolific and acclaimed rappers today, so any supposed beef only comes into the conversation after their artistry, releases, and skill. Even though it’s unfortunate, they’ve also continued to make great music without each other, and hopefully no grudges come up as a result of these remarks. After all, fans only want them to make up and put that aside for some more heat, and hopefully that door doesn’t fully close just yet. Maybe that’s wishful thinking based on what Freddie said, but it’s still a dream for many. For more news and the latest updates on Curren$y and Freddie Gibbs, come back to HNHH.

Curren$y Says He Has The Most Loyal Fans

by

When it comes to fans, no one has more of a cult following than Curren$y. Spitta claims that his fans are the most loyal and is willing to put them against any artist’s fanbase. Recently, XXL did a poll to their followers on Twitter asking what rapper had the most loyal fans. Curren$y replied directly to the publication declaring his fans the most loyal. Additionally, the New Orleans native mentioned how lucrative the independent route has been for his career.

“Me,” he tweeted. “They keep me paid enuff to provide for family, and have all the fancy shit that the chart topping artist have.” Curren$y continued, “Plus they don’t pressure me to change my style or adapt to shifts in music climate.” Furthermore, Spitta noted that his fans have supported him forever and have lifted him up on multiple occasions. “They have held me down forever and lifted me up forever at the same damn time, Curren$y tweeted. Moreover, his response prompted tons of Spitta fans to flood the comments section with high praise for the Jet Life founder.

Curren$y Declares His Fans The Most Loyal

One fan replied, “Been listening to spitta since I was 11 years old. Im turning 31 next month.” Evidently, all of the fans that replied were in agreeance that they were indeed the most loyal. It’s hard to dispute that when you look at Curren$y’s career over the years. He’s never been one to crossover to the mainstream but still has mainstream success thanks to his concrete solid fanbase. Spitta also thanks the blog era for accepting him early and giving him the motivation to keep dropping more projects.

Not only that but to attest to the strength of Spitta’s loyal fanbase, one fan threw bags of weed on stage every time the rapper played one of their favorite tracks. Back in March, Andretti sat down with Hot 97 to promote his collab tape with legendary producer Jermaine Dupri. He shared how he fell into being one of the pivotal members of the “blog era.” “I tell people all the time my homegirl just typed in Google when I put my first mixtape… That’s how I learned of all the blogs,” He told Ebro and the crew. Later he explained how seeing others write about him instead of the heavy hitters such as XXL gave him a revelation to cater to the tons more people that are rocking with his music and writing about it rather than trying to deal with the bigger publications. Who do you think has the most loyal fan base? Let us know your answer below in the comments!

Curren$y Gets Paid In Weed To Perform Specific Song

by

Curren$y has been making headlines lately. Wiz Khalifa claimed that Curren$y got him into Air Jordans. Meanwhile, he dropped his new album, a collaboration with Jermaine Dupri called For Motivation Use Only Vol. 1. The artist, also known as Spitta, is also a major advocate for the use and legalization of marijuana.

Currently, 22 states have legalized weed, while a further nine have decriminalized it. This includes Curren$y’s home state of Louisiana, where it was decriminalized in 2021. However, Louisiana does not allow the home growth of weed for personal use. Furthermore, Curren$y’s love of that sticky green has led to a hilarious moment at a local show.

Curren$y Claims Fan Gave Him A Pound Of Weed

Curren$y shared a the reel of an attendee at a recent concert. The man can be shown throwing bags of weed onto the stage, which Curren$y accepts gratefully. In the caption of the post, the rapper reveals that “The homie threw a zip errrtime a dropped one of the records he really wanted to hear haha almost left with a pound haha”. More recently, he has posted an image of him enjoying a joint backstage. It’s unknown that photo features him lighting up his concert gift.

Apparently, it quickly became a trend among the audience, with a number of audience members also showering the performer in that good good. As Curren$y notes, he left the concert with almost a pound of weed to his name. For a man who had fought for marijuana as long and hard as he has, that’s a big payday. Curren$y is due to begin a small tour in early May. According to a post on his Instagram, he will hit up Sacramento, San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Maybe leaving Curren$y a leafy gift will become a custom at his concerts going forwards. The clip also comes days after 4/20, the annual celebration of all things weed. What do you think about Curren$y’s concert gift? Would you give up your weed for your favorite rapper? Be sure to check back at HotNewHipHop for all things hip hop related.
