2023 is the year of the Gangsta Grillz. The latest artist to announce he has a tape on the way with the legendary DJ Drama is Fivio Foreign. The NY-Drill rapper hit Twitter with a simple message: “DJ Drama doin my Mixtape tho [fire emoji].”
Fivio would double back with additional details about his efforts, “Sicc & Tired is on DSP’s Notice Me should b on by next week keep pushing dat shit.”
Brooklyn rapper Papoose has just been named the head of hip-hop at music distributor Tunecore. In a brief message, he also says he would like for rappers to sign with them and stop singing bad deals.

Fivio Foreign’s girlfriend Jasmine Giselle is not happy about the rapper’s recent video with Asian Doll. Asian shared a video to Tik Tok of herself dancing seductively with the Brooklyn rapper to new Ice Spice music. Shortly after the post, Jasmine hopped on Instagram Live to blast the “Say My Name” star over his antics.
“Here with me, but posted up with Asian Doll,” she shared in the Live as Fivio lounged in the background. “This ain’t no exposing sh**. We together. But he’s been hiding that we’re together.” Jasmine also addressed Asian Doll directly in the video. “Asian Doll, we’re together. He’s right here. Sick from partying last night with Asian Doll.”

During the Live, Fivio called out his BM for “doing weird sh*.” But Jasmine didn’t let up. “I’m doing weird sh**? Or going to my crib and dubbing on Asian Doll is weirder?” Fivio had his own take on what went down as he partied with Asian. The 32-year old took to Twitter to clear his name. “A ni**a can’t dance with his friend,” he tweeted. “This world demonic. Smh.”
As for Asian Doll, she has yet to respond to the viral video. However, fans wasted no time sharing their thoughts on the steamy dance video. “VON is turning in his grave,” one fan wrote. “I’ve lost count how many different people she’s been with since he died.”
Another commenter defended the Dallas native dance session. “Why she gotta be with him just cuz they dancing around lol everything not so serious all the damn time.” Fivio and Asian Doll’s friendship isn’t new. Earlier this year, the B.I.B.L.E star accused Asian of lying on his name after she claimed he complimented her at a party.
“Wtf.. Wat type ov lie is dat,” he wrote. “She da homie for sure.. but I gotta gurl.. Yu kno I ain’t moving like dat.” Share your thoughts on Asian and Fivio’s sensual TikTok below.
While Fivio Foreign has had a big year, which came with releasing his major label debut album, B.I.B.L.E., as well as collaborating with the likes of Nicki Minaj, City Girls, and more, he is well aware of the issues that accompany everyday life. This is evident in his latest track.
“I feel like I’m blessed with a big excitement / And then I worked through the pain, I ain’t into cryin’ / They said it was hard, they ain’t even lyin’ / How you winnin’, you ain’t even tryin’,” he raps on the song’s chorus.
In the video, he is seen dealing with the highs of fame, as clips of him at parties, interviews, and in luxury homes play throughout. However, he is also seen balancing fame with the role of the family man, as he takes care of his young son.
Fivio has quickly become one of the leaders of Brooklyn’s drill music scene. In an interview with Complex, he noted his confidence in the genre’s longevity.
“It’s big,” Fivio said about drill. “No other genre is growing faster than drill. I feel like so many artists want to be a part of the drill scene. I appreciate all of the artists that are reaching out to it.”
The streets are waiting for Kay Flock to come home but the rapper’s presence has never been stronger. Over the past year, he’s gained significant prominence in the rap game following 2021’s The D.O.A Tape. By the time he comes home from his bid, he’ll have the streets on lock, which is even more apparent on his new release, The D.O.A Tape (Care Package).
In addition to the eight songs he dropped last year, Flock extends the 2021 project with an additional 10 songs. Among them are many of the previously released records he’s dropped over the past few months including “Shake It” featuring Cardi B and Dougie B, “Geeked Up” featuring Gucci Mane,” and also, “Make A Movie” featuring Fivio Foreign. In addition, Kay Flock’s project also boasts appearances from Set Da Trend, Big30, Thunder Bklu, CHII WVTTZ, TG Crippy, and B-Lovee, who appears on “Brotherly Love (Part 2).” On the production side, Project Kidz, Elias Beats, A Lau, Yung Lan, Kilo Keys, Glo Banks and even more contribute to the project.
In addition to his new project, Kay Flock is gearing up to drop off a new documentary titled, Brotherly Love: The Kay Flock Story.
Prior to the release of Care Package, Kay Flock called in from jail where he revealed that he would be coming home next year.
“Wipe a n***a nose if it’s wetty,” Kay Flock said during the call. “I’ll be back real soon, 2023 March, ya heard?”
Young Devyn’s keeping her foot on the gas with the release of her latest body of work, Baby Goat 2. The eight-song follow-up to 2021’s highly acclaimed EP showcases her maturity and captures her growth. The album boasts some impressive collaborations — a sign that she’s certainly leveling up. Devyn trades bars with the likes of Fivio Foreign, Capella Grey and Kenzo B appear across the project’s tracklist.
She described the body of work as an “update on her life” for all of her supporters who’ve followed her career over the years. Furthermore, it’s a representation of her rags-to-riches story.
“Baby Goat 2 tells a story of a young girl coming out of a very boxed-in environment & becoming something of herself. With this project, I speak on topics that I didn’t specifically mention on the first EP because I wanted to give my supporters a real in-depth journey into my growth from project to project,” she said of the project. “This is my way of giving everybody an update on where I’m at in my life and bring that representation for young people just like me on their grind. A true story. The production is elevated, I got nicer, and that hunger is back. Baby Goat 2 about to run the city!”
Nicki Minaj‘s headlining set at Rolling Loud New York was a celebration of her hits, both old and new. Over the course of her career, spanning over 15 years, Minaj has become a force in hip-hop with her several solo hits and her iconic collaborations.
Reuniting with her “Super Freaky Girl (Queen Mix)” collaborator, Bia, the two performed the remix of Bia’s breakthrough hit, “Whole Lotta Money.”
During the night, Minaj was also joined by Lil Uzi Vert, as they performed their remix of Uzi’s 2017 hit, “The Way Life Goes,” which contains a prominent sample of “Landslide” by Oh Wonder.
Earlier this year, Minaj dropped a series of collaborations, including one with Fivio Foreign called “We Go Up.” Fivio joined Minaj on stage tonight for a performance of the New York drill track.
One of Minaj’s most famous underground collaborations is 2014’s “Chiraq,” which featured a then-unknown G Herbo. Herbo surprised the audience tonight as he joined Minaj on stage to perform “Chiraq.”
Also during the night, Minaj performed some of her mixtape classics, like “Itty Bitty Piggy” from her 2009 mixtape, Beam Me Up, Scotty.. She also performed an acapella rendition of fan-favorite “Moment 4 Life” from her debut album, Pink Friday.
In clips shared by fans, Nicki is seen performing to an energetic audience, the members of which appear to know all the words to the songs in Minaj’s massive catalog.
Lil Uzi Vert is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
Rowdy Rebel has dropped the new music video for “Paid Off,” featuring Fivio Foreign.
The video, which was directed by Rowdy’s frequent partner G Train Productions, may be his most action-packed presentation to yet. He, Fivio, and two female accomplices in masks carry off a high-stakes, large-scale bank robbery. As the police realize what is going on, the action continues, leaving them in the dust.
No matter who they are or where they’re from, rappers love a good heist movie. Bank robberies form the foundation music videos from rappers from all over the map, from Atlantans like 21 Savage and Gunna to Memphians Key Glock and NLE Choppa, Californians like Nipsey Hussle and YG, and even Brits like Skepta. So when New Yorkers Rowdy Rebel and Fivio Foreign hold up a financial establishment in the video for “Paid Off” from Rowdy’s debut album Rowdy Vs. Rebel, they’re contributing to a long, proud tradition of would-be outlaws doing their best Public Enemies impression.
Decked out in all-black Nike tech fleece sweatsuits — ’tis the season, now we can really start dressin’ — with matching Nike ski caps, the two John Dillingers menace the customers and staff with long guns while their scantily-clad accomplices tote pistols and harlequin masks. I suppose there are no worries about picking those booties out of a lineup — especially since Rowdy and Fivio are apparently in that class of rappers whose idea of a happy ending is the robbers getting away scot-free at the end.
Rowdy is clearly having a lot of fun with this whole “free from prison” thing. Now he only plays a criminal on TV, which seems a lot less risky. You can catch Rowdy (if you can) in his video above.
