Megan Thee Stallion & Lupe Fiasco Drop Bombs On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

June 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

We’re officially halfway through the year, and we couldn’t have asked for a better match of new rap music to round up on our latest Fire Emoji playlist update. Leading the way is Megan Thee Stallion’s new album MEGAN, which has a lot of fiery, dense, and vulnerably triumphant bangers. On that bombastic tip, the catchy flows and bounce on “Figueroa” is a really solid taster you should try out. But if you’re looking for something more chilled-out and lyrically acrobatic, look no further than Lupe Fiasco’s new album Samurai and the tender and breezy highlight “No. 1 Headband” for a mindful experience.

Furthermore, another big Fire Emoji highlight this week is Roddy Ricch’s new single “911,” a warm West Coast-influenced jam with some nice vocal dynamism. Heading down South with a drill flair and light guitars is the latest Latto song of 2024, “Big Mama,” and the flow is pretty infectious. Of course, we’d be remiss not to mention Lil Durk’s new track “Went Hollywood For A Year” and its reflective but confident lyrical matter. While a lot of fans didn’t mess with it as heavily as they wanted, we know that we can never count Smurk out from coming back strong.

Elsewhere on Fire Emoji this week, you can find more surefire heaters like 42 Dugg’s chemistry-filled new collab with Sexyy Red, “N.P.O.” But that’s not the only exciting collaboration this time around; in fact, we got a couple of notable link-ups this Friday (June 28). One of these is Jeezy’s remix of JT’s “OKAY,” a boisterous and grand track that feels all the more larger than life with the Atlanta legend’s contributions. Also, Offset and Gunna continued to show off how well they bounce off one another on their latest record, “Style Rare.”

But while we’re talking about collabs this week, there’s no better example than Lil Yachty and James Blake’s new album Bad Cameo and its title track. Finally, we wanted to highlight yet another great Chance The Rapper single in 2024, as this week’s “Stars Out” and its relaxed style indicates that his upcoming album will be very special. Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji pick was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below. Check the playlist out above and, as always, come back to HNHH for more great hip-hop drops around the clock.

Mustard & GloRilla Are Electric On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

June 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The summer’s only getting hotter, and we have a slew of scorching new hip-hop releases to cover on our latest Fire Emoji playlist update this week. Moreover, leading the way is the latest collaboration from Mustard and Travis Scott, “Parking Lot,” the latter of which is celebrating a very successful “Pop Out” with Kendrick Lamar and friends in Los Angeles on Juneteenth. In addition, we have yet another GloRilla banger to talk about this year, and “TGIF” might be her best single of the year so far. Thanks to grand horn and string samples, deep bass hits, minimal snares, and more vocal charisma than any of us could ever muster, it’s an absolute smasher.

Furthermore, Fire Emoji held no shortage of trunk-knockers and stankface-inducers this week, such as the expansive, hectic, and icy “Gimme A Second 2” from Rich The Kid, Ty Dolla $ign, and Kanye West. Ye’s “sexist” bar might be a stinker, but hey, bad lyrics don’t always stop a jam from sounding off. Next up is the newest single from Ice Spice: the fast-flowing “Phat Butt,” which is yet another taster of her upcoming album Y2K. As far as some new and unexpected collaborations this week, IDK and Gunna delivered with the breezy and effortlessly chill “TiFFANY.”

Elsewhere on Fire Emoji, you’ll find Detroit hard-hitters like Tee Grizzley and his new single, the melancholy but determined “Robbery 7.” We won’t spoil what direction it goes around the halfway point, but just know that the energy shift is pretty infectious. All the Memphis fans out there also got more representation on this playlist update, such as Key Glock’s new bouncy cut “Big Big Money.” As for where this next summery jam belongs, a title like “105 West” and a cast comprising of Jay Worthy, DāM FunK, A-Trak, Ty Dolla $ign, Channel Tres, and DJ Quik should make it pretty obvious.

Meanwhile, 6LACK wears his ambitions and introspection on his sleeve on his new musical statement, “F**k The Rap Game.” Finally, we wanted to shout out the legends Rakim, Kurupt, and Masta Killa for keeping the old-school alive on this playlist update with “BE ILL.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji release was this week, as well as what we missed, down in the comments section below. Check the playlist out above and, as always, come back to HNHH for more killer rap drops around the clock.

Don Toliver & NxWorries Go Wild On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

June 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Father’s Day weekend held some banger releases in the hip-hop world, and our new Fire Emoji playlist update is here to round up the best of the best. The two big blockbuster releases in most people’s eyes this week are some highly anticipated albums, including Don Toliver’s HARDSTONE PSYCHO. Moreover, it’s a thrilling addition to the discography that takes things in a new direction compared to last year’s Love Sick, and “PURPLE RAIN” with Future and Metro Boomin and “ICE AGE” with Travis Scott are standouts. Also, there’s Anderson .Paak and Knxwledge’s return as NxWorries with Why Lawd? and their stellar track “WalkOnBy” with Earl Sweatshirt and Rae Khalil.

Furthermore, speaking of Fire Emoji albums, LUCKI dropped off his GEMINI! project this week, which is just as hard as you’d expect. In particular, his collab with Lil Yachty, “BIGGAVEL,” is a bouncy and woozy jam that shows off a lot of chemistry. There’s a similar tempo and dreaminess to Lil Gotit, Young Thug, and Lil Keed’s “Twisting Our Fingers,” complete with muddy bass and infectious flows. However, if you’re looking for something on a similar tip that’s a bit more moody and minimal, Cash Cobain, Chow Lee, and Bay Swag have you covered with their latest single, “act bad twin!”

Elsewhere on FIRE EMOJI, we also wanted to shout out the latest release from Moneybagg Yo, his album SPEAK NOW. While there’s some solid variety and versatility here, there’s nothing like the slow Memphis trap drawl paired with emphatic delivery on cuts like “TABOO MIAMI.” Shifting gears a little bit, we also wanted to highlight Headie One’s melancholy and more lyrically dense single, “I Still Know Better.” As the title suggests, it’s a pretty introspective cut reflecting on the contradictions, powers, and triumphs of his career, and the work that’s still yet to be done.

Meanwhile, LL Cool J threw things back a little with his “Saturday Night Special” single featuring Rick Ross and Fat Joe. Finally, Byron Messia tapped Lil Baby and Rvssian for the dancehall-inspired “Choppa,” which still has some grit to it in the verses. Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji playlist inclusion was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below.

BIA & Denzel Curry Bar Up On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

June 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

This hip-hop summer is heating up fast, and our new Fire Emoji playlist update is here to round up the best of the best rap releases that came out this week. First up is Denzel Curry’s grimy and chemistry-championing teaser track for his upcoming album King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2, “HOT ONE” with TiaCorine and A$AP Ferg. Speaking of fiery collaborations this week, BIA came through with a slightly more measured and atmospheric banger, the JID-assisted and melodically engaging “LIGHTS OUT” from the Bad Boys: Ride Or Die soundtrack. Finally as far as massive link-ups, Latto enlisted Flo Milli and Megan Thee Stallion for the “Sunday Service” remix, which is just as bombastic as it sounds.

Next up on Fire Emoji, KAYTRANADA has finally made his studio album return with TIMELESS, and it’s unsurprisingly bouncy, vibrant, and crisp as a full body of work. If you want a solid taster, look no further than “Call U Up” with Lou Phelps. The West Coast and company also had some groovy vibes to offer this week thanks to JasonMartin’s new single with Jay Worthy, Curren$y, Bun B, and DJ Quik, “SINCE I WAS LIL.” On a similar note, Tyga’s trademark Cali production, flow, and demeanor mix well with grand strings and round bass on his new cut “Hello B*tch.”

Elsewhere, folks like Lupe Fiasco are ensuring that our Fire Emoji playlist has proof that you don’t need to turn the skill down to make a beloved banger. His new Samurai single, “Cake,” rolls through intricate rhyme schemes and topical areas with a catchy chorus and an easy-going instrumental. But Moneybagg Yo’s latest track “PLAY DA FOOL” is anything but easy-going thanks to menacing piano chords, overblown percussion, and rapid flows. “Rump Punch” by Cash Cobain takes this speed to a more mellow place with more ethereal synths, minimal and sharp drums, and more relaxed but nonetheless relentless cadences.

Larry June rounds this list’s wavier and more upbeat cuts out with the G-funk-inspired “Dreams,” over which his deadpan delivery works quite charismatically. Finally, we’d be remiss not to mention Smino’s new song “Polynesian,” because its vocal dynamism and instrumental lushness are some of the best listening experiences you’ll have with a cut this week. On that note, let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji inclusion was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below. Check the playlist out above and, as always, come back to HNHH for the latest amazing music drops around the clock.

Eminem & Cardi B Make Magic On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

June 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Welcome to summer, which will hopefully be 2024’s best season yet thanks to the best of the best hip-hop releases of the first week of June rounded up right here on our new Fire Emoji playlist update. First off, there are two obvious big drops to cover, starting with Eminem’s new single “Houdini.” Not only does this zany track see him paying homage to his career, but also playing with its perception with some of that old comical fire. The other unmissable track to drop this week was the remix of Megan Thee Stallion and GloRilla’s “Wanna Be” with Cardi B. As expected, the chemistry here is off the charts, and Bardi’s appearance makes the cut even more confident.

Elsewhere on Fire Emoji, we also have a short but sweet new Palestine-dedicated album from Belly titled 96 Miles From Bethlehem. One of the highlights on it is certainly “Blue Bags,” whose shots of distortion, industrial influences, and eerily looped vocal samples craft an engaging journey. On a more woozy and ethereal note, we have new two-pack single from LUCKI, 2 Faced, Pt. 2, which contains “Heavy On My Heart” and “Courtesy Of.” The latter has a particularly melancholy piano line paired with a peppy drum pattern that’s particularly pleasing to the ear.

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist: Stream

Moving forward with our next new single, JasonMartin enlisted Jay Worthy, DJ Quik, and Larry June for the soulful “GURBS & YOUNGS.” The bass definitely carries the track’s funky demeanor, and some light chimes and xylophones really invoke that West Coast spirit. But Fire Emoji also has some classic gritty East Coast raps this week thanks to Meek Mill’s new song “5AM IN PHILLY.” Its main draw is definitely his energetic and passionate rapping, but the minimal beat carries it well.

Also, we wanted to shout out Roddy Ricch’s tender but still hard-hitting cut “Survivor’s Remorse.” Finally, as far as one of the best new releases of the week, Action Bronson came to impress with his bombastic record “Nourish A Thug.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji inclusion was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below.

Vince Staples & Sexyy Red Bring The Heat On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

May 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The summer is right around the corner, so don’t forget our new Fire Emoji playlist update to catch you up with the best hip-hop releases of the week before June rolls around. One album we’ll surely be playing all season is the new Vince Staples album Dark Times, on which “Étouffée” is an easy and bouncy highlight amid a lot of lyrical depth and blunt storytelling. Speaking of projects, Sexyy Red also came through with a collection of tracks, In Sexyy We Trust, and you’ve probably already heard of the “BBL Drizzy”-assisted cut “U My Everything” with Drake. Lastly on the LP side of things, “Ice Storm” featuring Smino is definitely a highlight on the new Sango album, North Vol. 2.

Elsewhere on Fire Emoji, we have some killer singles to go over, whether it’s from rising stars or established commercial titans. For a mix of the two, we’d look no further this week than “Grippy,” the new Cash Cobain cut with a solid albeit divisive J. Cole feature. On the other hand, Quavo came through with another 2024 cut with “Clear The Smoke,” which is as confident and boisterous as the title suggests. Along a similar vein, YG’s newest single “Weird” sees him rapping with a lot of assurance and charisma about the weirdness of the rap game.

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist: Stream

Rolling further along, we have yet another Cash Cobain appearance on Fire Emoji this week thanks to his feature alongside Charlie Wilson on Don Toliver’s “Attitude.” It follows a similar drill and Jersey-influenced woozy sonic pallet that Cobain’s been so consistent and prolific with over the past couple of years. But this new playlist update also leaves room for family matters (no, not that one… that was a few weeks ago), such as Big Hit, Hit-Boy, The Alchemist and Hitgirl LENA’s “Gank Move.” It’s a nice contrast between gritty drum timbres and watery backing chords, and is likely one of the week’s best lyrical offerings.

Meanwhile, we’re rounding this update out with Central Cee’s “BAND4BAND” featuring Lil Baby, yet another U.K./U.S. crossover from Cench this year. Finally, Key Glock sounds as tough and unwaveringly cool as ever on his new track, “Q-Dogz.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji pick was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments below. Check out the playlist above and, as always, come back to HNHH for more great music drops around the clock.

Key Glock, Mach-Hommy & More Went Full Force On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

May 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

HotNewHipHop‘s Fire Emoji playlist is back to round up the best of the best hip-hop releases that came out this week, and we have a nice balance of singles and projects. First up is the latest banger from Key Glock, “F**k Around & Find Out,” which trades out his usual Memphis griminess for a more upbeat bounce. Regardless, Glizock flows like butter on here, and no style in the world can take his city out of his cadence, confidence, or diction. As for one of the best hip-hop albums this week (or year so far, frankly), Mach-Hommy returns with #RICHAXXHAITIAN. While the whole project is stacked with astonishments by every metric, we’d recommend the soulful “SONJE” with Hephzibah as a taster.

Elsewhere on Fire Emoji, the AOTY contenders continue with Rapsody’s Please Don’t Cry, which once again shows off her range and skillset as a top-tier MC. Of course, a Lil Wayne feature on “Raw,” as well as Niko Brim, would raise excited eyebrows, but their chemistry is something that somehow managed to exceed expectations. Another match made in heaven is Chance The Rapper’s collaboration with DJ Premier, “Together.” Star Line Gallery is shaping up to potentially be one of the most tender and touching hip-hop albums of the past couple of years, something that fans can’t wait for.

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist: Stream

There’s one more new album we wanted to shout out on Fire Emoji this week, and that’s A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s Better Off Alone. While there are a lot of solo cuts here, the extensive tracklist also provides some solid collabs such as the woozy Cash Cobain team-up, “Body.” In fact, Cobain has another feature on the playlist this week, as NAV remixed Cash and Diany Dior’s “Favorite Lady.” It’s another blend of Jersey club, drill, and more minimal plugg and electronic sounds fused with pop trap, and checks the boxes well enough.

Finally, we’d be remiss not to mention Lupe Fiasco’s titular single for his upcoming project, “Samurai,” which is as classy as it is enveloping. If you’re looking for something more energetic, don’t head out before bumping 42 Dugg’s gritty “Win Wit Us.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji release was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below. Check out the playlist above and, as always, check back in with HNHH for more amazing music releases around the clock.

Kendrick Lamar & Drake End The Beef On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

May 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Another week, another Fire Emoji playlist update rounding up the best of the best this week had to offer as far as new hip-hop releases. Just like last week, we have a whole lot to talk about concerning the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef, but you’ve probably already heard these. Regardless, each and every one of these is (debatably) killer, in chronological order of release: “Family Matters,” “Meet The Grahams,” and “Not Like Us,” plus the non-streaming “The Heart Part 6.” It was a show-stopping battle that asked more pressing questions than it answered about rap culture and the music industry, but an impressive showing nonetheless.

Elsewhere on Fire Emoji, this beef held even more material, as The Game hopped in with a “Freeway’s Revenge” diss against Rick Ross that was seemingly exacerbated by their opposing sides in that Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud. But other than all that, we have some big albums to talk about, including the much-anticipated Almighty So 2 from Chief Keef. If you’re looking for a solid taster for the project, we’d recommend you check out “Grape Trees” with Sexyy Red. Also, we have a brand-new album from Conway The Machine titled Slant Face Killah, on which “Mutty” with Stove God Cooks is a particularly grimy and and enveloping cut.

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist: Stream

As if that wasn’t enough material for Fire Emoji, the albums just keep on coming. The title track on Gunna’s new LP One Of Wun (plus “neck on a yacht”) should indicate just how woozy, intoxicating, and effortlessly engaging that tracklist can be. What’s more is that we also have the return of one of the game’s greatest with the new Ghostface Killah project, Set The Tone (Guns & Roses). “No Face” with Kanye West is a dusty throwback highlight with a lot of chemistry between both MCs.

Meanwhile, we wanted to show love to some singles this week, as well. There’s Future and Tee Grizzley’s hard-hitting “Swear To God,” Ice Spice’s Sean Paul-sampling “Gimme A Light,” Kodak Black’s introspective “Dis Time,” and Key Glock’s moody but murderous “The Greatest.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji pick was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below.

Kendrick Lamar & Drake’s Feud Takes Over Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

May 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Well… pretty chill week for hip-hop, right? We know that there’s a massive cloud over the genre right now, but don’t forget about all of the other excellent music drops that released in the past seven days, which we’ve rounded up on our new Fire Emoji playlist update. On it, you’ll find Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss, “euphoria,” but at this point, you’d be missing most of the story. “6:16 In LA,” “Family Matters,” a “Buried Alive” parody mocking K.Dot, and “Meet The Grahams” released since, and potentially false claims and savagery aside, they are downright ugly. A sad ending (or is it?) to what many fans hoped would be an art-centric battle.

Regardless, there’s plenty of great music to champion instead on Fire Emoji, such as the new Yeat and Don Toliver collab, “Heavy stunts.” In contrast to another single from the 2093 creative that dropped alongside it, “King tonka,” this one melds their psychedelic and woozy styles in a simple, minimal, but nevertheless engaging cut. There was another hazy track this week, albeit a much cleaner and more crips offering, from Gunna titled “Whatsapp (Wassam),” building up to his soon-to-come album. As almost always, Wunna’s flows are pretty slick here, and the beat here cushions his delivery with ease.

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist: Stream

Moving onto more aggressive fare on Fire Emoji, we also wanted to highlight the new Moneybagg Yo single, “TRYNA MAKE SURE.” It’s a pretty clear-cut example of Memphis griminess, with sharp snares and occasional bell gongs keeping his flows in check. Also, we have a collaboration between Jasiah, Denzel Curry, and Meechy Darko, the airy but nonetheless hard-hitting “5 Days.” It creates a pretty interesting contrast between heavy percussion, harsh vocal deliveries and flows, and a breezy piano melody.

For the more old-school heads out there, you’ve probably already gone wild over the new Ghostface Killah and Nas collab, “Scar Tissue.” Finally, Chance the Rapper’s new “Buried Alive” track provides enveloping rhyme schemes and a lot of introspection to make for a very passionate offering. Let us know down in the comments below what your favorite Fire Emoji pick was this week, as well as what else we missed. Check the playlist out above and, as always, check back in with HNHH for the latest great music drops around the clock.

Ice Spice, Future & Many More Headline Star-Studded “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

April 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

We’ve got a whole lot of amazing hip-hop to cover this week, and our new Fire Emoji playlist update is here to take you through the best of the best. Leading the way is a wildly anticipated new remix, Cash Cobain’s “Fisherr” reimagining featuring Ice Spice, and Bay Swag. With some new auto-tuned vocal stylings from the Bronx MC, plus catchy Cobain refrains, this has the potential to be one of the most low-key bangers of the summer. Next up is the new cut from Nardo Wick, Future, and Southside, “Back To Back.” It’s exactly the kind of murderous, menacing, and minimal trap that Wick’s been hard at work with across his other hits.

Speaking of Southside, he produced the hard-hitting and almost creepy new single from Destroy Lonely and Ken Carson, “President.” Furthermore, another Fire Emoji highlight this week is Killer Mike, Offset, and Blxst’s “EXIT 9,” which pays tribute to the late Dungeon Family legend Rico Wade. ‘Set adds a nice and heartening verse to this MICHAEL cut from last year, and the updated Mike verse is also a great touch. On a similarly melancholy tip, Foggieraw tapped Ari Lennox for the chilled-out, ethereal, and lustful “Stay Awhile.”

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist: Stream

Another Fire Emoji breather comes in the form of a talent-heavy track: Saba, No ID, Jordan Ward, Madison McFerrin, and Ogi’s “head.rap.” It’s another relaxing single that still packs a lyrical punch and shows off a lot of chemistry between all these artists. Gucci Mane’s “TakeDat,” however, is a borderline comical diss track that tries to manifest as little chemistry between Guwop and Sean Combs as possible given the latter’s alleged controversies. Getting into some of this week’s projects, “Mike Jack” with G Herbo and Rob49 is a gritty standout on Skilla Baby’s new album The Coldest.

Meanwhile, AG Club’s new LP BRODIE WORLD offers a lot of fun bangers like “Barry,” so don’t let it fall under your radar. Finally, we wanted to shout out Anycia’s new full-length PRINCESS POP THAT and point you to “THAT’S HARD” with Cash Cobain as an excellent taster. Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji release was this week, as well as what else we missed, in the comments section down below.
