It appears new music from Memphis rap legend Lola “Gangsta Boo” Mitchell is on the way. Today (March 11), TMZ reported that the late rapper’s estate is planning a posthumous album for a tentative release this summer.

According to the publication, former Three 6 Mafia members La Chat and Crunchy Black are set to appear on the album. The album will also reportedly feature collaborations from Run The Jewels, Skepta, and Latto. Before her death, Boo collaborated with Latto on “FTCU,” a track with GloRilla interpolating Boo’s Three 6 Mafia cut, “Tear Da Club Up.”

Fellow Three 6 Mafia members DJ Paul and Juicy J are reportedly planning to contribute to the album’s production, along with Metro Boomin’, BeatKing, and Nick Hook.

The album is apparently planned for release on Boo’s birthday, August 7.

Boo’s mother Veronica Mitchell told TMZ that while she is still mourning the loss of her daughter, it warms her heart to see that her music still lives on.

“My daughter Lola was my only baby girl. I was so proud when she would rap as a little girl. She became the Queen of Memphis and God brought her home to be with her daddy Cedric and her brother Derron,” she said. “I miss her but I know she’s happy with them.”

Conway The Machine Joins Juicy J And Sauce Walka For “Super Bowl”: Listen

by

The Super Bowl may have already occurred, but Conway The Machine relives the unmatched energy of the event in his new song “Super Bowl.” Featuring Juicy J and Sauce Walka, this track lusts after the life of big ballers while recounting the highs felt after winning a nationally-acclaimed tournament. All three rappers bring an unapologetic grit to the track that results in an upbeat anthem.

Conway, who recently announced his upcoming third studio album Won’t He Do It, is known for placing his soulful bars over soothing beats. His 2022 project God Don’t Make Mistakes deep dived into the 41-year-old’s outstanding capabilities as a lyricist, and featured T.I., Rick Ross, and Benny The Butcher. The release of “Super Bowl” also follows the rapper’s news of a confirmed docuseries created by his label, Drumwork, marking another exciting step in Conway’s career.

Conway Drops “Super Bowl” Ahead Of Upcoming Album

While “Super Bowl” may differ from Conway’s previous projects by its overtly upbeat nature, the track serves as a celebration of wins for the New York rapper. In the chorus, he describes “feelin’ like I won the AFC.” Both Juicy and Sauce allude to the same winning mentality in their verses, reflecting on the successes of their individual careers. In November, the “Bandz Make Her Dance” rapper dropped Crypto Business, a collaborative album with Lex Luger and Trap-A-Holics. Sauce, despite alleged affiliation with the ongoing RICO case, ended the year with three mixtapes: Al Rage Walka, Sauce Beach Florida, and Sauce Ghetto Gospel 3.

In all, “Super Bowl” marks a collaborative effort to depict the incomparable highs of success and big wins. The track is currently available to stream on all platforms, so be sure to check it out and let us know what you think in the comments down below. Like always, be sure to keep in touch with HNHH for the latest news on all things hip-hop.

Quotable Lyrics:

I’m only faithful to the cash, yeah (Woah)
Straight forward to the bag, uh (Woah)
I don’t wait for it, I don’t ask (Woah)
I’ma take all of it, I take all it, I’ma take off, I’m finna blast (Yeah)

“Super Bowl” is just one of them ONES! Big rings, big ice on, big money, celebrating BIG WINS. In life, you gotta be proud of yourself for all of your hard work paying off. A win is a blessing, and you always gotta count your blessings” Conway says of the single. “Shout out to my brother Juicy J, he sent me this hard ass beat, and I did a verse to it immediately. Then I’m like nah, what would REALLY be crazy is my bro Sauce Walka on it too! Sent it to bro, he smoked it, then I sent it to Juice Mane and he smoked it, and here you have it!”

A Planned Juicy J Tribute Video Was Cut From Gangsta Boo’s Funeral After Some Technical Difficulties

Memphis rap icon Gangsta Boo was laid to rest this weekend. At her funeral Saturday (January 15), however, technical difficulties caused some video tributes from her bandmates and other prominent Southern rap personalities to be cut from the service. According to TMZ, the videos from Juicy J, Drink Champs cohost DJ EFN, and Yelawolf had to be nixed as the video files were unable to be played on the church’s projector. Instead, they can be viewed in full on TMZ.

In Juicy’s video, he says, “Rest in peace to the queen of Memphis… Prayers to the family, the friends, the fans… We lost a great one.” Meanwhile, Yelawolf’s video gets interrupted by a semi truck’s horn prompting him to joke that it’s Gangsta Boo herself, getting in one last jibe from beyond.

Although these names were absent from the service, one of Boo’s more recent collaborators — and arguable heir apparent — GloRilla was able to attend, telling reporters outside the church, “She’s still alive. You know what I’m saying? Big Memphis. We gonna keep representing. Long live Lola. Big Memphis. Let’s go!”

News of Gangsta Boo’s death was met with a wave of dismay from across the rap community. Collaborators such as Big Boi from Outkast, Latto, Missy Elliott, Monica, Project Pat, Run The Jewels, and her Three 6 Mafia bandmates all paid tribute on social media.
