Fabolous And Trey Songz Deliver Passionate Performances Over A Drake Beat On “You Did Me Wrong”

January 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fabolous is one of a few rappers and or hip-hop adjacent artists to be delivering tracks on a consistent basis. Bryson Tiller is also someone on this trend with “Tiller Tuesdays.” However, the veteran lyricist from New York is going by it by releasing freestyles, mainly over other popular songs. Tiller on the other hand is releasing more original material. So far, Fabolous has not skipped a beat on any of the releases, but that should be a surprise.

As we mentioned, he has been doing this at a high level for a long time. He has consistently proven he has plenty left in the tank. Fabolous’ most recent effort was his “Snooze Freestyle.” When you check out that track you will come to notice he uses the sped-up version of SZA’s viral hit from SOS. Another icon he has selected beats from is none other than Drake.

When Drake dropped the For All The Dogs Scary Hours Edition (Instrumental) he challenged the very best to write their best bars. Fabolous was the first to do so over “Evil Ways,” the second J. Cole collaborative effort. Now, for the next “Freestyle Friday” session, Fabolous is back with Trey Songz to perform over “You Broke My Heart.” Both mainstays sound great over it and it may be Fab’s best work as of right now. Go check out the video above.

Suit up for what looks to be a new era for Saweetie, as she just dropped her latest, “Immortal Freestyle.” For years, Saweetie has been honing in her craft while cranking out hits that have taken over clubs and social media.

Over the last few weeks, several Rap Girlies have delivered fire freestyles that give a nod to what they’ve been working on. Saweetie entered the chat with “Immortal Freestyle,” and she caught up with PAPER to speak candidly about her return.

Saweetie Wants To Inspire Women

“I think ‘Immortal Freestyle’ is just a statement for all the girls who feel like they’ve been knocked down before and always, continuously get up no matter what,” Saweetie told the publication. “I just wanted to inspire my Icy Girls to continue to do what they do, no matter how tough and dangerous the storm may look. Because if you keep preserving and if you keep doing what you’re supposed to do, you’ll get to your destination. We’re immortal baby. I know that’s right!”

Moreover, although it’s unclear if the femcee’s debut album Pretty B*tch Music will arrive this year, Saweetie did explain what the phrase means to her. She said, “It’s how you treat people; it’s how you move; it’s your aura! Pretty b*tch music is a movement. I pray and I hope all my girls are able to tap into who they are, and they’re able to achieve their highest level of energy.”

While you decide whether or not this PBM is the movement for you, check out Saweetie’s “Immortal Freestyle” and let us know your thoughts.

Quotable Lyrics

Tie my shoеs up, I’m goin’ on a run
I could pull your n*gga with no makeup and a bun
My gay homeboys said, “B*tch, don’t leave no crumbs”
Wait, I think I heard something
Oh it’s just them b*tches at the bottom who ain’t worth nothin’ (Huh)
I can’t hear nothin’, sittin’ pretty at the top (Top)
Get my phone (Brrr), yeah, time to call the shots (Shots)

Wiz Khalifa is a respected figure in the rap world and he deserves it. The North Dakota-born artist has been doing the business for over a decade.

But, you have to respect that he knows what lane he flourishes in.

He is not a super lyrical guy but he can sure deliver the smoky vibes and bangers. That is what Wiz is still putting out all these years later. For him, it is all about consistency and staying true to himself. He has been busy over the past year or so. Wiz Khalifa has dropped eight projects in two years, equaling four in 2022 and another four last year.

If you thought I wasn’t on the top you was misinformed
If you knew that b**** was for the streets what you kiss her for

Katt Williams Hits Ludacris With Vicious Freestyle

January 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Katt Williams has dropped a freestyle aimed at Ludacris while appearing on Suge Knight’s Collect Call podcast. “I’m coming for your number one spot, one of us a killer and the other one is not/ One of us the realest and the other one a fraud/ You heard the interview on ‘Club Shay Shay,’ I gave ’em all a payday/ I’m still going f-cking viral so who care what the haters say/ Ludacris, you must be out your rabid a– mind/ You made a rap song but, n-gga, you ain’t say I’m f-cking lying,” Williams rapped. Furthermore, Williams implied that Ludacris had engaged in a sexual relationship with Quincy Jones.

Previously, Ludacris had dropped a freestyle aimed at Williams after the comedian suggested that Luda had earned his role in the Fast & Furious franchise after participating in an Illuminati ritual. “So there was a crossroads where we were both invited to an Illuminati thing, and it had to be one or the other of us and decisions had to be made. So it was both of us, we were equal. One of us had to cut off all their hair and couldn’t do the sideburn thing no more, with the points. And the next person they said was going to get $200 million because they were going to pay him $10 million a movie to do 20 movies. And that’s how the conversation happened. One of those persons turned out to be Ludacris, and the other person turned out to be Katt Williams,” Williams claimed.

Karlissa Saffold Confuses Fans With Katt Williams Claim

While Williams made many claims about various people during his Club Shay Shay interview, this has also led to many people making claims about him. Karlissa Saffold confused many of her fans after she claimed that Williams had shouted her out during his interview. Specifically, Saffold claimed that Williams had wanted her to play D’Wana in Next Friday. Saffold said that she turned down the role because of the outfit they wanted her to wear. The role was eventually played by Tamala Jones. Saffold’s comments appear to stem from fans telling her that she should have played D’Wana

However, people are already calling cap on Saffold’s claims. “Man cap I didn’t hear him say blueface momma or the name Karlissa,” one person argued. “Katt never said that I watched the whole 3 hour interview twice ,” agreed another. “LIES…KATT NEVER SAID THAT YOU HAD A POSSIBLE ROLE IN FRIDAY ,” a third added. Williams did not appear to reference Saffold in his wide-ranging interview. While Williams may have privately told Saffold about Next Friday, he did not appear to say anything to that regard on camera.

Fabolous Recaps Dubai Travels On New Single & Music Video, “OSHO Freestyle”: Stream

January 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fabolous’ “Freestyle Friday” series has been giving us heat for a while, and why would 2024 be any different? Moreover, he opened up the year with a new off-top song and music video, “OSHO Freestyle,” in which he recaps his Dubai travels in the visuals. The New York rapper starts the video with a phone call from his plane, and shows the lavish New Year’s celebrations and performances that he engaged in during his time there. Overall, it’s a pretty opulent cut with a thematic focus that centers it around his success and career moves after what many would argue is his peak. Fab’s still not slowing down after all these years, so the quality drop is practically nonexistent.

Furthermore, “OSHO Freestyle” uses what sounds like a dramatic and grand Middle Eastern sample to accentuate his surroundings in the music video. Perhaps that’s a misguided assumption, but the important part is that it fits incredibly well with Fabolous’ evolutionary flow. In addition, the hardened trap drums give this song a nice edge that he also displayed on recent “Freestyle Friday” entries like “Tuluminati.” That also saw the 46-year-old make a connection to his location, and we can’t complain about the results so far. As far as lyrical focus, there’s not much new here: luxury, skill, and the like.

Fabolous’ “OSHO Freestyle”: Stream & Watch The Music Video

Meanwhile, this comes amid claims from French Montana that his collaboration with Loso, “Ball Drop,” should have won a Grammy. It also follows previous freestyles, such as Drake’s Scary Hours 3 challenge, in which he was as lyrically sharp and charismatic as he’s ever been in his post-prime career. But with this new offering and many others, it’s clear that we can’t box Fabolous into a specific era in which he was top-tier; he’s just too good to do so. If you haven’t heard “OSHO Freestyle” yet, check out the music video above and some standout bars below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH for more great hip-hop releases around the clock.

Quotable Lyrics
I would go sell everything except for our souls,
Make sure the bankroll’s as big as paper towel rolls, feel me?
No weapon formed, stay with our pole,
‘Cause it’s less about the story and more how it get told, n***a

DDG Claims Ignorance Over “Halo” Bar In His Freestyle Referencing His Son

January 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

DDG and Halle Bailey recently welcomed their first son into the world, Halo, and fans couldn’t be happier to hear the news. Moreover, this follows months of speculation, gossip, and rumors about whether she was pregnant or not, which they had fun clowning and responding to in vague and mostly dismissive ways. However, a recent freestyle of the rapper’s has fans pointing to a specific reference to his newborn child. “Silver spoon kid, I know Halo don’t want for nothing,” he raps on “Darryl Freestyle.” “He crying, his momma coming, she stronger than Wonder Woman.” Of course, fans had questions about this even before Halle announced their baby’s birth.

On Snapchat, DDG decided to answer some fan questions as he typically does across his social media platforms. One listener asked about this Halo bar, and he went on to claim ignorance when it comes to spitting about his “biggest blessing.” “What bar?” the Michigan native told the camera in response. “You talking about the freestyle that just dropped? I didn’t hear that. I did not hear that bar. Y’all gon’ tell me if I’m tripping.” As such, a lot of fans probably proceeded to point it out to him, or he’s just keeping his trolling up even more.

Furthermore, this is far from the first time that DDG and Halle Bailey decided to be a bit more secretive and jest-heavy when it comes to their family. They had to deal with a lot of presumptions and theories that flooded their accounts, and even if fans were right, it’s heartening that they took this pretty lightly instead of in combative fashion. For example, he recently posted a picture of himself with a baby doll and claimed to announce his “daughter.” Maybe in the next few weeks, the couple will continue to joke with supporters and create more buzz around this mystery.

Meanwhile, this is a wholesome and celebratory occasion that’s perfect to commemorate their second anniversary. We wish them and their pride and joy Halo the best health and happiness for 2024 and beyond. Hopefully they can now focus on their careers and their bond instead of dealing with the rumor mill. For more news and the latest updates on DDG and Halle Bailey, stick around on HNHH.

Cam’Ron Shares New Freestyle Celebrating Season 3 Of “It Is What It Is”

January 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In less than a year, Cam’Ron and Ma$e’s podcast It Is What It Is has gone from just an idea to a massive hit. Just last year the pair signed a major media deal for future seasons of the show. Now, season 3 is underway with a higher budget and even more impressive presentation than before. Cam celebrated the beginning of season three by throwing it back to his rap days and delivering a freestyle for fans. The freestyle features quite a bit of reflection and detailing how he arrived at his current day status as a high-profile podcast host. Check out the full freestyle below.

Cam’Ron spent much of the time between podcast seasons discussing some of the pop culture events of the day. That included Kanye West, who Cam claimed was only acting whenever he made surprising statements in public. During an interview with The Art Of Dialogue he claimed that every time he sees Kanye in person, the rapper is completely normal. It’s for that reason that he believes West’s unhinged public image is by design and performed on purpose. It sparked plenty of debate only over whether or not his behavior is authentic or not.

Cam’Ron’s Newest Freestyle

In lighter news, Cam’Ron’s iconic pink Range Rover was sold online. The iconic custom all-pink car pops up in some of the rappers most iconic music videos. He sold it shortly after on eBay and it’s been in the hands of private collectors ever since. It was recently sold again for a measly $16k likely due to the mileage that’s been put on it in the years since.

Cam also recently told a story about shooting his shot with Halle Berry before he was famous. Despite it not landing he seems pretty understanding and in pretty good spirits about it in retrospect. What do you think of Cam’Ron’s newest freestyle celebrating the beginning of season 3 of his podcast It Is What It Is? Let us know in the comment section below.

Avelino Comes Into The New Year Scorching Hot On “2024 Freestyle”

January 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The UK’s hip-hop scene continues to thrive but one artist who has paid his dues and undoubtedly deserves all of the flowers is Avelino. The Tottenham-based MC has spent the past decade applying pressure. In recent years, he’s finally begun to gain his rightful recognition with a string of excellent bodies of work. 2023 was a particularly busy stretch with the release of his album, God Save The Streets, and the plethora of records he dropped afterward including a number of loose freestyles.

It appears that the momentum will remain high throughout 2024, as the MC just released a new freestyle to commemorate the new year. Aptly titled, “2024 Freestyle,” Avelino takes on the hypnotic production of Hit-Boy’s “Composure” for his latest offering (the two previously worked together on Hit-Boy’s “2 Certified”). The meditative beat provides plenty of room for Avelino to showcase his lyrical aptitude and effortless flows where he reflects on the wins of 2023 and the moves he plans to make this year. It’s another incredible showing of Avelino’s strengths as an MC; the versatility with which he approaches his craft that finds him smoothly transitioning from high-octane grime production to eloquent soulful sounds.

Avelino Kicks Off 2024 On A High Note

At the end of “2024 Freestyle,” Avelino reflects on the release of God Save The Streets, which he describes as being 10 years in the making. The rapper’s latest project boasted 12 songs in total with several high-profile features from the grime and drill scene. He linked up with Wretch 32, who he worked alongside on Young Fire, Old Flame, as well as RA, Backroad Gee, Tiggs The Author, and more.

Avelino might not be a household name just yet but his prolific output indicates that he won’t stop until he is. With the release of “2024 Freestyle,” we could imagine that he has a lot more in store for the remainder of the year. The North London native previously unveiled “50 Years Of Hip-Hop Freestyle” to honor the genre’s year-long celebrations. Check his new freestyle above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.

Quotable Lyrics
I got sick and tired of being ill-advised
Flew straight, now I’m migrating for the winter time
Bro’s in the wing for flying birds, now he can’t even fly

Justina Valentine Recaps The Year’s Biggest Ups & Downs On Her “2023 Rap Up” Freestyle

December 31, 2023 by newhiphopnews

We’ve made it to the final day of 2023, and what better way to recap the rollercoaster ride of the past 12 months than a new freestyle from Justina Valentine. For the past few years, she’s been teaming up with The Shade Room to summarize past events as only she can. If you ask us, the latest edition may be the famous redhead’s best work yet, as she covers everything from Blueface and Chrisean Rock to Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan.

“What a tangled web some have spun / Larsa Pippen out here dating Michael Jordan’s son,” Valentine spits early on in the song. “I know he inside the box like Roddy / Somebody better check on Scottie,” she adds, mentioning the Real Housewives cast member’s athlete husband, who she reportedly slept with multiple times each night throughout their marriage.

Justina Valentine Summarizes 2023 in Just 12 Minutes

Other hot topics the Wild ‘n Out cast member rhymes about in the video above include Yung Miami’s love for golden showers, Rihanna’s iconic Super Bowl Halftime performance (and subsequent pregnancy announcement), and Ja Morant’s troublesome stint with the NBA after flashing weapons on social media more than once. That was all in the first few months of the year, with events like the Montgomery brawl, Chris Brown and Usher’s alleged scuffle, and Keke Palmer’s baby daddy drama after wearing a sexy dress to the latter R&B’s Las Vegas residency all came after, and that doesn’t even touch on the second half of 2023.

Do you think Justina Valentine killed it on her “2023 Rap Up”? If yes, you can add the lengthy freestyle to your playlist on Spotify/Apple Music.
