exclusive release Archives - New Hip Hop News

Yasiin Bey, one of the most elusive rappers of our time, is back… sort of. The Brooklyn MC formerly known as Mos Def is hitting fans with a bit of a curveball, which he’s been accustomed to doing now for the last several years. Recently, the Black Star artist made a big announcement to his Instagram page regarding a listening experience of sorts. “ASIIN BEY PRESENTS ‘MONEY CHRISTMAS’. LIVE STREAM PERFORMANCE EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE ON BANDCAMP. WHATEVER YOU THINK IT IS … IT’S NOT THAT,” He begins. “LIVE STREAM SUNDAY DECEMBER 15TH AT 8.00PM CET / 7.00PM GMT / 2.00PM EST / 11.00AM PST BROADCAST GLOBALLY.” This Money Christmas he’s referring to is what’s being billed as an EP.

For those wondering, tickets for the event were $7.99. He’s taking the songs he performed during this livestream and putting all of them onto this project. Of course, they are going to be mixed and mastered for everyone’s listening pleasure. Bey did say that the concert was still going to be available to watch for 48 hours after its conclusion. However, it’s nowhere to be found. According to Consequence Sound, “24-48 hours after the performance” the actual tape can be bought. So far though, Yasiin Bey has not shared Money Christmas on Bandcamp, the only place to hear it. Instead, it just says to pre-order for $9.99. With that said, that means there isn’t any information on the songs in any capacity. Hopefully, fans will be able to get their hands on it by sometime tonight or no later than Tuesday.

After such a long hiatus from two of the A$AP Mob’s biggest stars, it is great to see them back in action this year. In terms of A$AP Rocky, he is presumably dropping his long-awaited album DON’T BE DUMB on August 30. His fourth studio tape will end a six-year drought and will be the follow-up to 2018’s TESTING. As for A$AP Ferg, aka FERG, he has been active on the singles and features front in 2024. He made his return a little over a month ago with the YouTube exclusive release, “MDMX”. Since then, the “Shabba” lyricist has gone on to put out two more solo cuts and features for Trae Tha Truth and Denzel Curry. However, FERG is showing that he does not intend on slowing down anytime soon as he drops off “FERG STRONG”.

This single came out of nowhere, as the New York native announced it on his Instagram alongside a intense workout video. FERG along with some close friends are getting a full body pump at a local park it appears. “FERG STRONG” perfectly embodies that visual, as the record is extremely intense and aggressive from beginning to end. The beat, provided by tweektune, is loud but not over the top. The drum pattern, rumbling 808s, and swirling synths create a fire environment for FERG to roam in. In typical fashion, he brings various cadences and loads of energy. Hopefully, “FERG STRONG” gets a wider release. However, he seems content with keeping it limited. Right now, you can find the banger on Soundcloud and YouTube. The latter is provided below so go run it up.
