Drake & Rick Ross’ Beef Feeds Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

Things couldn’t be any hotter in hip-hop right now, so it’s a good thing that our Fire Emoji playlist update is here to round up the best of the best that rap music had to offer this week. Moreover, two huge releases on streaming over the past week form part of the talk of the town: the civil war between Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Rick Ross, Future, and so many more (even Ye is allegedly in the mix now with a possibly leaked “Like That” remix). Specifically, though, we wanted to shout out Drizzy’s “Push Ups” finally arriving on streaming services, as well as Rozay’s “Champagne Moments” with its quick response to that track “leaking” online.

But let’s forget about the beef for a second and… oh, wait, Breezy is in a feud with Quavo right now, too?! Well, regardless, his appearance alongside Travis Scott and Sexyy Red on Nicki Minaj’s “FTCU (Sleeze Mix)” doesn’t rope that into the track. Instead, all MCs provide pretty unique and great performances in their own right over this simple but effective beat courtesy of ATL Jacob and Southside. It’s probably the most straightforward banger on Fire Emoji this week, especially thanks to its star-studded nature.

Next on this playlist update is what might be the best pound-for-pound hip-hop drop this week. Heads I Win, Tails You Lose is a grimy, concise, and unsurprisingly impressive comeback album from Gangrene (comprised of producer/rapper The Alchemist and rapper/producer Oh No). With highlights like “Cloud Surfing” and killer features from Boldy James and more, the duo provides relentless rhyme schemes, vivid imagery, and a whole lot of confident bravado with one of the more old-school-sounding pallets that Uncle Al’s worked with for a minute. He’s capable of pretty much everything, so if you’re looking for some hearty helpings of beats and rhymes on Fire Emoji, we’d highly recommend this.

Finally, we wanted to shout out two other big singles with a lot of anticipation as to what will come from them. Headie One is coming out with a new project soon, and dropped the wavy but immediate single “Cry No More” with Stormzy and Tay Keith. Also, Cash Cobain is really hitting it big with his February single “Fisherr” with Bay Swag, and this virality has apparently led to an Ice Spice remix dropping very soon. Let us know what your favorite release on Fire Emoji was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments below. Check it out above and, as always, check back in with HNHH for the latest great music drops around the clock.

Tierra Whack & Flo Milli Liven Up Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

We’re halfway through a pretty stacked music month, so it’s no wonder we have plenty of heat to offer on our Fire Emoji playlist update rounding up the best fiery hip-hop releases this week. Leading the way is none other than Tierra Whack, who finally delivered her long-awaited album WORLD WIDE WHACK after a stellar but limited career so far. Fortunately, the Philly MC proves that the wait was worth it, thanks to subtle but compellingly introspective cuts like “DIFFICULT.” Another highlight here is the menacing and mid-tempo “SNAKE EYES,” which sees Tierra display a little more bravado and excel in the minimal trap lane.

Another big project that landed on our Fire Emoji radar this week was Flo Milli’s new album Fine H*, Stay. While there are a lot of catchy jams and notable features on this LP, none are quite as smooth, charismatic, or immediate as “Edible” featuring Gunna, who has a pretty animated performance. Wunna himself also dropped a track of his own this week titled “Prada Dem,” a woozy and engaging trap banger with Offset. Furthermore, the former Migo fits this vibe perfectly with some fast-moving flows.

Speaking of evolving flows and massive mainstream releases, Cardi B continues her rollout with her latest single “Enough (Miami).” It’s among the most simple and easily accessible offerings on Fire Emoji this week, but it’s nevertheless a pretty solid bar-up. On the opposite end of the spectrum, we have a hard-hitting, deeply personal, and vividly emotive track from Maxo Kream titled “No Then You A H*e.” It’s mostly dedicated to his late father, whose loss re-contextualizes much of his lyrical matter here in a powerful way.

Meanwhile, we wanted to shout out two more great full-lengths that dropped this week. Kenny Mason continues his impressive and no-miss streak with 9, on which “LUMINOUS” is an easy performance standout. Finally, we want to point to Chief Keef and Mike WiLL Made-It’s DIRTY NACHOS project, specifically the song “DOJA,” for your weekly banger fix. Let us know in the comments down below what your favorite Fire Emoji release was this week, as well as what we missed. Check out the playlist above and come back to HNHH for the latest great music drops around the clock.

Drake & Yeat Are Partying “As We Speak” On Our New Fire Emoji Playlist Update: Stream

February’s heating up as it wraps up, and our Fire Emoji playlist is here to round up the best new hip-hop that came out this week. Starting off with an extra addition to one of 2024’s best albums so far, Yeat and Drake teamed up once again for the 2093 cut, “As We Speak.” It’s a definite step-up from their previous track “IDGAF,” and pushes both of them in industrial new directions with a well-crafted and grand beat. Next up on this playlist is the return of Kodak Black with the single “Shampoo” following his arduous prison stint. It’s pretty much what you’d expect from a Yak cut, but hearing him re-energized in this way is quite gratifying.

Furthermore, we also want to shout out French Montana’s new album Mac & Cheese 5, whose many versions elicited jokes and mocking messages from fans. Regardless, “Where They At” is a grimy collaboration with none other than Kanye West and Westside Gunn that will probably make it up to fans. Elsewhere on Fire Emoji, there’s also the brand-new cut from Central Cee, the low-key and romantic “I Will.” On a similarly measured but much darker and pained note, Lil Durk shared his latest record, “Old Days.”

Also on Fire Emoji is a release from three artists that fans are begging for more from. The Free Nationals, Anderson .Paak, and A$AP Rocky teamed up for the unsurprisingly funky and charismatic “Gangsta,” and hopefully an album from any of these is soon to come. Even though Quavo isn’t in this situation, as he dropped an album last year, it was still great to hear him drop another loosie with this week’s “Himothy.” It’s a haunting trap beat with the Georgia trap icon’s signature flows, and they’re as engaging as they’ve ever been despite a rough mix.

Meanwhile, rounding out our update is the new cut from Ray Vaughn and Pusha T, the ambient but lyrically visceral “Problems.” Last but not least is Strick’s new gorgeous collaboration with Young Thug and James Blake, “KISSES MAKE SURE.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji playlist addition was this week -– and what else we missed, too. Check it out above and, as always, come back to HNHH for the latest great music releases around the clock.

Yeat & ScHoolboy Q Steal The Show On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

It’s getting busier and busier for new hip-hop releases in 2024, and our Fire Emoji playlist update is here to round it all up. Moreover, we’ve highlighted the best of the best new music drops this week for your convenience, and we have a big one to start off with. Yeat just dropped his highly anticipated studio album 2093, and its lengthy tracklist contains a lot of standouts. If you want some appetizers to ease you in, we’d recommend the Future-assisted “Stand On It” and the Lil Wayne-assisted “Lyfestylë,” plus the brand-new Drake collab “As We Speak,” which isn’t on the playlist but warrants a mention.

Next on our Fire Emoji update is the new song from Tierra Whack, “27 CLUB,” ahead of her new album dropping later this year. It’s a solemn and dreamy cut that leans more into soulful and low-key atmospheres rather than a straight-up banger, but it still resonates a lot. In addition, speaking of an upcoming album, ScHoolboy Q just dropped his Blue Lips single “Yeern 101.” With distorted bass, clubby claps, fast flows, and sharp snares, this is an exciting new direction for the TDE veteran that sets his next project up to impress.

Beyond singles for upcoming albums and other, more developed rollouts, we also have a lot of loosies to cover on Fire Emoji this week. Buddy’s “Like This” is a great example, whose breezy and crisp instrumentation showcases it as a great standalone pallet cleanser. Also, Gunna came through with another somber, guitar-led cut with “Bittersweet,” whose melodies, sentiment, and mood definitely reflect that emotion. Planet Giza’s “2wice Again” melds R&B and pristine boom-bap in a similarly melancholy way, and we hope there’s much more of where these singles came from. We apologize if these artists are leading up to projects and we’re just waffling about loose tracks.

Rounding out the list is Bryson Tiller with “Whatever She Wants,” whose lo-fi but bouncy beat provides a lot of energy for his passionate vocals. Finally, one of the best drops this week was Conway The Machine and Joey Bada$$’ long overdue team-up, “Vertino.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji inclusion was this week -– and what else we missed, too. Check out the playlist above and stick around on HNHH for more great music drops around the clock.

Kanye West & Latto Go Wild On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

It’s a big week for our Fire Emoji playlist update, which rounded up the best of the best hip-hop that released this week. Leading the way is the much-anticipated collaborative album between Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign, Vultures, which finally landed on most streaming platforms. We highlighted the single “Talking” with North West, which dropped earlier this week, but we’d also recommend highlights like “Fuk Sumn” with Travis Scott and Playboi Carti. In addition, Latto lit up the femcee world with her new single “Sunday Service,” which some fans think is a diss toward other female rappers. She maintains that it’s not that deep, but all that attention for a true-blue banger can’t hurt.

Furthermore, another Fire Emoji highlight, speaking of trunk-knockers from women in hip-hop, is GloRilla’s new single, “Yeah Glo!” Like any amazing Memphis banger, this has an unstoppable and confident flow, heavy drums, and light melodic elements that still preserve the song’s griminess. Another simple but menacing offering this week came from BabyDrill and Luh Tyler, who linked up for their newest record “ScoreGod.” Their nonchalant deliveries and ethereal, organ-like synth hits make an atmosphere that’s as woozy as it is hard-hitting.

But you might be wanting a more lyrical offering this week, and for that, look no further than Stove God Cooks’ new single “Melo Chip and a Brick.” It’s a fiery performance from the Griselda-affiliated spitter, paired with a brash but dramatically enveloping sample flip from none other than Conductor Williams. Alas, it wouldn’t be a Fire Emoji update if we didn’t also mention a Chief Keef release, if applicable any given week. His new Mike WiLL Made-It collaboration, the cut “DIRTY NACHOS,” is a fiery and aggressive addition to his already heated catalog.

Finally, for the best release of the week, we have Little Simz’s new EP Drop 7, on which “I Ain’t Feelin It” is a dangerously cool and intoxicating jam. What was your favorite Fire Emoji release this week -– and what did we miss? Drop your thoughts in the comments section down below and check out the playlist above.

Lil Yachty & TiaCorine Get Odd On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

Welcome to February: the first releases of the year are out, we’ve had time to enjoy them, and now it’s time for the big guns to come out. While this is by no means a ridiculously huge release window, our new Fire Emoji playlist update and its round-up of the best of the best hip-hop this week proves that things will only get better as 2024 draws on. Leading the way is Lil Yachty’s new single “A Cold Sunday,” one of the most creative and unique rap tracks he’s ever done. With an odd time signature, and flows and drums that adapt on a dime, it’s a dizzying but still soulful record that the Atlanta native still shines on.

Next on Fire Emoji is TiaCorine’s new eight-track offering Almost There, with a lot of colorful and aggressive highlights. However, “Blick” with Key Glock might be the best out of these, with heavy distortion and fiery performances giving off so much energy. Another project release this week was Hit-Boy and The Alchemist’s THEODORE & ANDRE EP, on which the menacing and woozy “THE MAIN EVENT” with Johnathan Hulett bangs hard. Also, Icewear Vezzo’s Live From The 6, particularly the track “Rap Game,” is your fun-to-no-end Detroit rap offering this week.

Not only that, but Fire Emoji also highlights the best singles this week, whose artists will hopefully keep grinding in 2024. For example, Don Toliver made his return with “Bandit,” an epic and wavy trap banger with his always vibrant vocal tone. In addition, That Mexican OT tapped DaBaby for “Point Em Out,” which takes all the most cold-blooded elements of many regional scenes and combines them into a trunk-knocker. We’d be remiss not to shout out NBA YoungBoy’s “BNYX Da Reaper,” too, and this collaboration is a refreshing and successful triumph for both its rapper and its producer.

Meanwhile, JT delivered the most confident and cool-as-a-cucumber performance of this whole update on “Sideways.” Finally, there’s YNW Melly and YNW BSlime teaming up for a light and croon-heavy cut, “772 Love Pt. 3 (Your Love).” Let us know in the comments section what your favorite release on this Fire Emoji update was in the comments -– and what else we missed this week, too.

Megan Thee Stallion & Benny The Butcher Lead The Pack On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

HotNewHipHop’s Fire Emoji playlist is home to plenty of notable releases this week. Artists have made their debuts, femcees have gone for each other’s throats, and rappers have unveiled their eagerly-anticipated LPs. Megan Thee Stallion quite literally kicks things off by saying “f*ck y’all,” unleashing her inner snake on “Hiss.” The track sees the Houston hottie take aim at critics and reignite her messy feud with Nicki Minaj. She describes the track as a “warning,” and it goes without saying that she got the message across. The song is unapologetic and bold, with Meg notifying haters that she’s not only here to stay, but here to conquer.

Ice Spice also came through with a read this week on “Think U the Sh*t (Fart),” reminding listeners that no other MC can come close. The Bronx-born baddie lends her signature, focused flow to carefree bars about breaking hearts and taking names on a track grounded by bubby, fun production. She also cruises around Miami in the accompanying music video, partying with her crew and hitting up the local deli.

Next up is Benny The Butcher, who unveiled his anxiously awaited new album Everybody Can’t Go this week. Fans see the return of the New York native’s entourage on “Griselda Express,” featuring Westside Gunn, Conway The Machine, and Rick Hyde. He also joined forces with Jadakiss and Babyface Ray for “Pillow Talk & Slander,” spitting about taking back what belongs to him.

Elsewhere on this week’s update, Cole Bennett of Lyrical Lemonade dropped off his compilation project All Is Yellow. He recruited high-profile performers like Chief Keef, Lil Yachty, Teezo Touchdown, and more. Kevin Gates finally unveiled The Ceremony, making waves with his track “Lil Yeah.” Tierra Whack and Skepta also dropped off bangers while ATL Jacob teamed up with Quavo, and 21 Lil Harold enlisted JID.

Nicki Minaj & Future Bring “Gag City” To Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

HotNewHipHop‘s Fire Emoji playlist update for this week is your destination to get the best of the best hip-hop releases this week, and we had a lot of hot singles and projects to highlight. Moreover, leading the way are Nicki Minaj and Future, who invite us to “Press Play” on their newest collab off Pink Friday 2 (Gag City PLUTO Edition). It’s a fast-paced, confident, and relentless trade-off between both lyricists as they let their flows and trill hi-hats and snares do the talking. Also on the new album tip, Rot Ken came through with a 15-track effort Kenny World featuring Kenny Mason, SoFaygo, and more. Particularly, Young Nudy woozily and fittingly assists on the cut “Miracle,” a bouncy trap banger with dreamy synths.

However, Fire Emoji also contains a lot of lyrical mastery this week, most expertly coming from Conway The Machine and Cool & Dre’s “Give & Give.” It’s a soulful sample-led meeting between legends and a legend in the making that’s a treat to see with its triumphant atmosphere. In addition, we also have Sir Gangsta. T and Curren$y’s new ethereal and abstractly structured single “Jet Life Over H*es.” It switches between drumless soundscapes and a West Coast-inspired bounce to great effect, and their flows here are choppy but in the most engaging way possible.

Not only that, but we finally got a pretty anticipated release from Anycia and Latto, “BACK OUTSIDE,” that fans loved the teasers for. Over a horn-heavy trunk-knocker, both femcees show off a lot of swagger and don’t let up on their fiery performances, both lyrically and technically. Elsewhere on Fire Emoji is Fivio Foreign and Meek Mill’s “Same 24,” which sees both of them in more introspective and measured lanes with show-stopping results. Finesse2tymes and Rick Ross turn their come-up into triumph on “Fat Boy,” and they display a lot of chemistry.

Meanwhile, Joey Bada$$ got into his melodic bag on the KayCyy collab “Passports & Suitcases,” an exciting and promising new direction for him. Finally, we want to shout out Rob49 and Lil Wayne’s “Wassam Baby” for its breakneck pace and verses. Let us know in the comments what your favorite Fire Emoji release was this week -– and what else we missed.

21 Savage & Kid Cudi Hit Hard On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

Now we’re talking; the second week of 2023 held so many amazing albums, singles, and everything in between for hip-hop. As such, we have a stacked and pretty hefty Fire Emoji playlist update rounding up the best of the best this week, so strap in. First up are two massive albums from two beloved creatives in the game right now: Kid Cudi’s INSANO and 21 Savage’s american dream. As for the former, we’d recommend “WOW” with A$AP Rocky and “GET OFF ME” with Travis Scott as particular highlights. In fact, La Flame returns on the standout “née-nah” with Metro Boomin off 21’s aforementioned album, which also includes amazing cuts like “pop ur s**t” with Young Thug and Metro, plus the murderous “redrum.”

Furthermore, let’s switch things up on Fire Emoji and talk about some true lyrical killers, some of which switched things up. For example, Joey Bada$$ teamed up with Lyrical Lemonade, Gus Dapperton, and Lil Yachty for “Fallout.” Not only that, but if you’re looking for some Griselda-related vibes this week, look no further than Benny The Butcher’s new single “BRON.” Along that same vein, Boldy James and Nicholas Craven just dropped an excellent album, Penalty of Leadership, on which “Formal Invite” is a stunning opener.

Meanwhile, Fire Emoji also brings us hot new tracks from rising artists, such as TiaCorine and Luh Tyler’s new cut, “Yung Joc.” In addition, That Mexican OT continues his prolific streak with the single “02.02.99,” furthering his blend of many Southern rap styles. We included Paris Texas and Kenny Mason’s 2023 cut “DnD” on our update to prepare you for their newest collaboration, “Big Bank,” which dropped this week. That also features Billy Lemos and is connected to Pigeons & Planes and Big A** Kids‘ See You Next Year collective.

Rounding our list out, we wanted to shoutout Doja Cat, Kodak Black, Adekunle Gold, and Jeymes Samuel for “JEEZU” off of The Book Of Clarence‘s soundtrack. Lil Tjay also dropped a single this week titled “Told Ya,” and Kevin Gates came through with the song “Birds Calling.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji release this week was– and what we missed, too.

ScarLip & NLE Choppa Open Our First “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update Of 2024: Stream

Welcome to 2024, and to sum up all the great opening releases this week from the best in hip-hop and beyond, we’ve got you covered with our first Fire Emoji playlist update of the year. Leading the way is the new remix of ScarLip’s “Blick” featuring NLE Choppa, an aggressive and Jersey club-inspired cut. With wild vocal delivery, a banging beat, and infectious piano lines, this will kick off the year with a bang. In addition, we also have The Game, Big Hit, and Hit-Boy’s surprise collab album, Paisley Dreams. Moreover, its title track is particularly skillful, and demonstrates a compelling balance of boisterous bars and reflective remarks.

Also on Fire Emoji this week is the new song from Pooh Shiesty, the menacing “Federal Contraband 2,” which actually dropped on Christmas Day last year. It still carries its lengthy energy over into 2024 with what sounds like a relentless verse from jail from the Memphis MC. Moving over to Michigan, we have Detroit rapper Veeze and Gallery Provence teaming up for a new record, “WORST.” It’s a punchline-heavy, rapid, and similar to Shiesty, non-stop performance with an ethereal but tough-as-nails beat.

Along the same high-tempo and bar-heavy vein, BLP KOSHER just released a new song, “Dreidel Bop.” The Florida native’s infectious charisma, creative wordplay, and slew of pop culture references makes this as fun as it is engaging to sit down and break down its verses. As for the best offering on Fire Emoji this week (in this writer’s opinion), Erick The Architect and the legendary George Clinton blessed us with “Ezekiel’s Wheel.” It’s a slow-burning but funky track with lyrical perseverance, woozy embellishments, and a dreamy and intoxicating sonic atmosphere.

Rounding out our update is Lil Tecca’s mellow and cavernous new single, “Down With Me.” Finally, we wanted to shout out Fredo Bang’s emotive and drowsily heart-ached “Come Thru.” Let us know in the comments section which of these Fire Emoji picks was your favorite– and what else we missed this week, too. Check out the playlist above and, as always, stick around on HNHH for the latest amazing music releases around the clock.
