Cash Cobain has been dropping consistently since 2018. The rapper/producer has a much higher profile these days, however. Singles like “Fisherrr” and “Grippy” have blown up in 2024, thanks to collabs with the likes of Ice Spice and J Cole. Cobain’s upcoming album, PLAY CASH COBAIN, is consequently his most anticipated yet. Fans are excited to hear how the rapper/producer pushes his sound forward, but still maintain the fun, experimental vibe that must us fans in the first place. “Problem” is an interesting attempt to reckon with these two goals. The song is a staggering 7:40, making it the longest Cobain song by a mile.
There’s a reason for the length, though. Cash Cobain decided to bring a staggering 12 artists onto the song to make it stand out, and stand out it does. The glitchy, “problem” refrain sung by Laila! serves as the backdrop for a revolving door of guest verses. Big Sean shows up. FloMilli drops by. We also get bars from Don Q, Rob49, Fabolous, 6LACK, and Anycia. Not enough? Don’t worry, there’s more. The song has appearances from YN Jay, Luh Tyler, Kaliii, Lay Bankz, Chow Lee and Flee. We would need a dissertation to discuss everybody’s verses. That being said, Big Sean continues his string of strong features, and Flo brings lots of menace during her sixteen. It gets a little tiring as the song goes on, but such is the nature of posse cuts. Cash Cobain put together an unexpected treat for fans, and we appreciate it.
Let us know what you think of this brand-new track, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming projects.
Cash Cobain Assembles An All-Star Roster On “Problem”
Quotable Lyrics:
My whole city totin’ straps, that sh*t a (Problem) You treat rumors like they facts (That’s not my problem) Hoe, stop wonderin’ where I’m at, that’s not your (Problem, What? What?) I done went broke and then bounced back, that’s not my (Problem)
Doe Boy is continuing to bring together big names with this new single “Special”. The Cleveland, Ohio native is working with Skilla Baby (once again) and Flo Milli, a first timer. The Midwesterners were recently on “Smack Sh*t”, a September 2023 release, so you know they are going to have great chemistry. In fact, they do on “Special”, a song all about being infatuated with a one-of-a-kind woman. However, if you are familiar Doe Boy and Skilla Baby’s music, you know they aren’t going to go about this subject matter in lovey-dovey fashion.
Flo Milli is also her to give this collaboration its extra flair and raunchy attitude with some pretty braggadocious bars. “I be like, “F*** a red light,” I’m speedin’ my way to the d**k (Damn) / He found out my s*** was tight ’cause he could barely make it fit (Woah) / Now he stalk a b**** for life, you know I’m good for talking s*** (Hey)“. This banger is co-produced by Gentle Beatz, a rising name from Germany whose done a lot of his early hitmaking alongside BossMan Dlow. Overall, “Special” has loads of firepower on all sides, making it a sure-fire club mainstay going forward. Stream the single with the link below.
I knew I was special when I didn’t pay attention in class (Duh) Imagine b****es want my head, I like makin’ ’em mad (Haha) Pretty b****, he choosin’, I can’t help, he like chocolate and a** (Okay) I might shake it all night (Ooh), he suckin’ toes, they all white (Yeah) I was first, stupid b****, she a pup, I’m a pit’
Spotify’s new exhibit honoring women in hip-hop had a glaring omission, and some fans are pretty upset about it. The Gold Standard Exhibition has taken over The Hole Gallery in New York City with portraits painted by Manon Biernacki, who depicted Cardi B, City Girls, Doja Cat, Flo Milli, GloRilla, Ice Spice, Latto, Megan Thee Stallion, Saweetie, and Sexyy Red in a realist style reminiscent of Renaissance paintings. However, when images from the show hit social media, fans of one rapper in particular — Nicki Minaj — expressed their displeasure.

“And no Nicki ??” questioned one. “Wow Spotify the most streamed female rapper of all time ??” Another railed, “Nicki gottaaaa be on the mfn ceiling somewhere because this is ridiculous. Y’all gotta be out y’all rabbit a$$ minds.” One more added a slew of other women in rap to their complaints, writing, “where is lil kim, nicki minaj, missy elliot, lauryn hill, iggy, salt n pepa? if this is the bar then the bar is an inch off the floor.”
And no Nicki ?? Wow Spotify the most streamed female rapper of all time ??
Of course, there are arguments to be made for any number of “exclusions,” but at the end of the day, there were no criteria given for the selections other than that they’ve all got relatively recent releases currently trending on Spotify. While that number would include Nicki Minaj, it would also include a bunch of other names that weren’t selected. None of that will ever prevent the Barbz from lashing out, but then again, if they didn’t have something to complain about, would they even be the Barbz?
On Wednesday, July 17, Glover revealed the album’s full 17-song tracklist in collaboration with Spotify.
The tracklist features Amaarae, Chlöe, Flo Milli, Jorja Smith, Legend, Fousheé, Khruangbin, and Yeat. “Lithonia” arrived on July 2, and “In The Night” featuring Amaarae and Smith was released earlier this week.
“The problem is we’re not having enough fun,” Glover said during an Instagram Live session last month. “OK, so, this rollout that’s coming, it’s like, mostly about fun. I’m trying to have fun because I feel like there’s just people not having enough fun.”

Two months ago, I tweeted: “Best year of hip-hop. EVER. #2024.” and the Internet’s feisty commentators tore me up. Pardon my excitement and wild proclamation, but I haven’t felt this good about the state of rap music since life before the pandemic. The 2020s have stunk — until now. What’s not to love today? Older rappers like Nas are showing and proving that great lyricists don’t have a retirement age. The historic, long-awaited showdown between Aubrey “Drake” Graham and Kendrick Lamar Duckworth lived up to the hype and transcended it. Plus, I’ve lost count of how much terrific content Future and Metro Boomin can cook up.
Still, everybody can’t get a trophy. It’s time to recognize the best of the best. I dare you to disagree. Ha! Spoiler alert: No Ye. No Q. No Vince Staples. No J. Cole on my albums list. You got a problem with that? Turn that frown upside down and turn the music up. Here’s the best hip-hop songs and albums of 2024, so far.
The Top 10 Hip-Hop Songs Of 2024 So Far
10. Nas & DJ Premier — “Define My Name” (Mass Appeal)
Three decades since working together on his classic debut, Illmatic, Queenbridge’s finest reconnects with Preemo for some classic Big Apple boom bap. Hopefully the promise of a future full-length project between the hall-of-fame duo comes to fruition.
9. Bossman Dlow — “Mr. Pot Scraper” (Alamo/Sony)
One of hip-hop’s most celebrated freshmen, Big Za has got plenty of digestible dope boy raps, but this one is the best. He’s a hustler, baby.
What’s better than one good Atlanta female MC? Two. Newcomer Nene gets a big assist from ATL Birthday Bash headliner, Latto. The fellas better pay attention — you don’t wanna piss these ladies off.
7. Cash Cobain — “Fisherr” Feat. Bay Swag (Giant)
Bronx-bred rapper/producer, Slizzy takes his sexy drill NY sound nationwide with this irresistibly catchy, tender ode to young love. Should you play this one multiple times? For sure.
6. 21 Savage — “Redrum” (Slaughter Gang/Epic)
Murderous material made by a mad man? Yeah, that’s a pretty good summation of Savage’s haunting anthem, which pays homage to the horror classic movie, The Shining. And I still can’t believe that’s Usher at the end, gettin’ his “Vincent Price on Thriller” on.
5. Sexyy Red — “Get It Sexxy” (Open Shift/Gamma)
It’s a rallying cry to act ratchet as Ms. “Pound Town” stomps all over producer Tay Keith’s kinetic track. Whoop! Whoop!
4. GloRilla — “Yeah Glo” (CMG/Interscope)
Suffice it to say, this self-affirmation selection slaps. Who can resist cheering along to this assertive chorus? Go, Gloria!
Before ultimately losing his intense exchange with rival Kendrick Lamar, Drizzy captivated with this sonic triumvirate of lyrical warfare. Too bad that he probably foreshadowed another K Dot Grammy triumph.
Over Metro aka hip-hop’s best producer’s best beat, Compton’s most wanted deads all comparisons to Aubrey and Jermaine and declares his dominant position. There can only be one.
1. Kendrick Lamar — “Not Like Us” (Kendrick Lamar/Interscope)
It’s a diss song and a hit song. Over DJ Mustard’s masterful canvas, King Kendrick simultaneously ends hip-hop’s greatest beef and empowers the West Coast hip-hop scene. A true victory lap.
The Top 10 Hip-Hop Albums Of 2024 So Far
10. Mach-Hommy — #RichAxxHaitian (Mach-Hommy)
Mach-Hommy
Hip-hop’s most mysterious MC delivers a musically diverse magnum opus that commands your attention from beginning to end.
9. Flo Milli — Fine Ho, Stay (‘94 Sounds/RCA)
Flo Milli
Anchored by her biggest single, “Never Lose Me,” Flo defies sophomore jinx pressure and captivates with her most compelling body of work to date.
8. Benny The Butcher — Everybody Can’t Go (5 To 50/Def Jam)
Benny The Butcher
With a co-sign from West Coast icon, Snoop Dogg, this Griselda spitter subtly takes his signature gritty raps to new heights. Growth is good.
7. Rapsody — Please Don’t Cry (We Each Other/Jamla/Roc Nation)
We Each Other/Jamia Records
You can’t handle the truth? Too bad. Marlena Evans bares her mind and soul on this sprawling but still soothing soundtrack.
6. Bossman Dlow — Mr. Beat The Road (Alamo/Sony)
Bossman Dlow
A ferocious force from Florida, Dlow delivers a riveting, raw mixtape that moves him one step closer to mainstream exposure.
5. A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie — Better Off Alone (Highbridge/Atlantic)
A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie
New York’s most consistent MC of the past seven years releases his best album and you all lame out? Don’t let the low numbers fool you, The Artist is on his A-Game here.
4. Gunna — One Of Wun (YSL/300)
Gunna
Although his career remains riddled in controversy as long as Young Thug is on trial, Gunna remains musically unfazed, following his should’ve-been-Grammy-nominated 2023 album, A Gift & A Curse, with a melodic masterwork that only he could put together.
3. 21 Savage — American Dream (Slaughter Gang/Epic)
Slaughter Gang/Epic
Fresh off his successful collab album with Drake, Her Loss, Savage subtly addresses his immigration saga and delivers his most cohesive collection of music.
1. TIE: Future & Metro Boomin — We Don’t Trust You + We Still Don’t Trust You (Wilburn Holding/Boominati/Epic)
Future X Metro BoominFuture / Metro Boomin
How can I choose? Same foundational premise: “The elimination of Drake.” Ha! But the execution is pure flawless excellence on both sides. We Don’t uses Mobb Deep’s Prodigy as a muse, as the two Atlanta heavyweights set their mark in hip-hop history. The follow-up, We Still Don’t, hearkens back to 2017’s HNDRXX as Pluto proves his singing can be just as potent as his rhymes. The aftermath of these two releases still resonates, as it single-handedly led to the Kendrick-Drake showdown. Future and Metro did the impossible. Then they did it twice.

Earlier this week, Megan Thee Stallion and GloRilla had some high-profile guests backstage with them after a recent concert. Those guests were Latto and Flo Milli and video of the four having a blast made the rounds online. That video turned out to be a teaser of a new collaboration that three of the four had on the way. Latto dropped her new single “Sunday Service” back in February. She finally followed it up overnight by dropping a remix version including both Megan and Flo Milli.
With the original racking up almost 12 million streams on Spotify alone, there’s clearly still interest in the song from fans. Now the trio of rap superstars have come together with their own expanded version of the track and fans were hyped. Part of the reason is that they were quick to promote the new song with attention grabbing tactics earlier this week. Megan and Latto are two of the most notorious twerkers in hip-hop and they showed off their skills side by side in a new video promoting the song’s release. Check out the impossible to ignore promotional video below.
The video was shared to both Instagram and Twitter and had fan’s jaws hitting the floor on both platforms. “Meg be throwing it like rent due , and I live lol” one of the top comments on the Instagram post reads. “Ion even remember the mirror part lmfao FRIED ” Latto herself comments on the video. Her comments references a clip later in the video where the trio film themselves dancing in the mirror. They’ve all three been busy this year with Flo Milli dropping a new album back in March. Megan announced hers for later this month.
What do you think of Megan Thee Stallion and Latto showing off their twerking skills to promote their new collaboration? Which of the three rappers do you think stole the show on their new crossover? Let us know in the comment section below.
Latto has released the highly anticipated remix of her single “Sunday Service,” featuring Megan Thee Stallion and Flo Milli, via RCA Records. The track’s original version generated significant buzz after Latto teased it on Instagram a few months ago, showcasing her signature witty bars over a catchy beat.
The new music video for the remix brings the three powerhouse artists together, featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the Atlanta stop of Megan Thee Stallion and GloRilla’s Hot Girl Summer tour. This collaboration excites fans, blending the unique styles of Latto, Megan Thee Stallion, and Flo Milli.
A Hot Girl Summer continues. Over the past few weeks, the ladies of rap have been dropping heater after heater. And tonight (June 7), this pattern continues with a remix of Latto‘s “Sunday Service.” Joined by Megan Thee Stallion and Flo Milli, Latto takes the scorching diss track to the next level.
Flo Milli pops in with her brand of pretty girl magic, questioning why someone would bring their man to an event “if you know he thirsty.”
On Meg’s verse, she is well aware that she is the standard, even if her opps try change the rules of the rap game when she reaches unbeatable heights.
“I meet the goalposts, b*tches move it, they say I can’t, then I do it / Your favorite rapper might not like me but his boo gon’ jam my music,” raps Meg.
As the ladies have been known to do in their individual records, they deliver on bars, as well as pure, carefree fun. Eliminating the need for the competition the game tries to put them in, the girls display a sense of collaboration, uplifting each other and bringing each artist to brand new heights.
You can listen to the “Sunday Service” remix above.
