mixtape

Mach Hommy’s Griselda debut Pray For Haiti has arrived, boasting an impressive sixteen tracks and guest appearances from Westside Gunn, Keisha Plum, and Tha God Fahim. On the production end, the project is brought to life by the beat-making talents of Camoflage Monk, Cee Gee, Conductor Williams, Denny LaFlare, DJ Green Lantern, and more.

In many ways, Pray For Haiti feels like a new direction for Westside Gunn’s Griselda records, though Mach Hommy’s latest certainly retains the grimy, raw, and lyrically focused quality associated with the label. On the latter front, Hommy is particularly adept, his clever mind for punchlines equally matched with his ability to spit unrelenting flows. “Oh word? your raps braggadocious?” he asks, on the Camoflauge Monk-laced “No Blood No Sweat.” “Put this .38 in your mouth, go ahead and spit your magnum opus.”

His chemistry with Gunn is also worthy of note, and the Griselda mogul brings exciting energy when paired with his new sparring partner. For the most part, however, Pray For Haiti is far and away Hommy’s showcase. In a year that has already seen no shortage of excellent underground releases — provided it’s fair to call an album that netted Hommy a sit down with JAY-Z underground — Pray For Haiti may very well find itself discussed among the best. 

It’s also worth noting that 20 percent of the proceeds are going to the PRAY FOR HAITI TRUST FUND, which will improve schools in  Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Bars for a cause — does it get any better? Stream Pray For Haiti here and now. 

There have been plenty of rappers who say that their albums are for the streets, but for 42 Dugg, this statement rings true. On Friday (May 21), Dugg returned with a new project titled Free Dem Boyz, and from top to bottom, the rapper shines a light on his friends as well as the plights of street life. Recently, 42 Dugg’s name was roped in a bit of controversy after a snippet of his track “Maybach” with Future was shared and the “Life is Good” rapper was heard taking a dig at his ex-girlfriend, Lori Harvey.

42 Dugg and Future were also recently captured on a music video set filming a clip for their single, so we’ll keep you updated on that visual when it drops. In the meantime, stream Free Dem Boyz by 42 Dugg and let us know what you think of this project that hosts features from Roddy Ricch, Future, Lil Durk, Rylo Rodriguez, EST Gee, Fivio Foreign, and Rowdy Rebel.

It’s been a few months since Famous Dex shared his last body of work, Diana but he hardly leaves fans without some sort of new release. Typically, it’s usually a loose track that’s only available on YouTube but every so often, fans also get treated with a surprise leak. It feels like it’s been a minute since he’s even shared a loose single.

This week, the rapper came through with a brand new project that’s only available on Soundcloud at the moment. Say What You Want is a six-song effort that includes appearances from Yung Bans, Guapocheese, Dc2trill, and Meesh Thomas.

Check out the latest project from Famous Dex below and sound off in the comment section with your favorite track off of Say What You Want.

Los Angeles dup Paris Texas have remained rather anonymous on the come-up but that’s really a testament to their music. The Los Angeles duo have been bubbling up in the underground West Coast scene throughout the past few months, specifically, as they ramped up the campaign for their debut project. 

Following the success of singles like “Force Of Habit” and “HEAVY METAL,” they’ve arrived with their debut project BOY ANONYMOUS in full. The eight-track effort is a compact effort with production that’s as dreamy as it is grungy, speaking to their wide array of influences. The genre-bending effort is completely featureless, allowing the duo, consisting of Louie Pastel and Felix, to offer a well-pronounced introduction to the masses.

Peep their new project, BOY ANONYMOUS below. 

The hype surrounding this release was no joke as Young Nudy has been steadily counting down the days until the release of his latest project, Dr. EV4L, for over a month. Weeks ago, Nudy hosted a unique album release experience that reportedly arrived as a haunted house, and on the flyer he shared to his Instagram page, he warned guests to “enter at your own risk.” The event matched the temperature of the record as Young Nudy has promoted Dr. EV4L with a carnival, horror-like theme.

The 13-track album doesn’t host too many features, but the few Nudy included were some of the hottest hitmakers in the game. The rapper called on 21 Savage, G Herbo, and Lil Uzi Vert to lend their vocals to the project, and fans are already praising Nudy’s latest effort. Stream Dr. EV4Land let us know what you think.

Buzzing UK artist has been slowly blowing up over the past few years. Each single and feature he’s laid down has boosted his profile as a unique voice in the UK’s ever-blossoming scene. On Friday, the rapper returned with his debut mixtape, Boy Meets World. He leaves a lasting impression on this one, from the second he kicks off the project with the drill-infused banger, “Drizzy.” The project includes fourteen tracks and a slew of collaborators, from both the UK and the U.S. J.I. appears on “Lingo,” alongside Chunkz while DDG slides for “Fr Fr.” Other features on the project include Unknown T, Jade Silva, Craig David, Bandokay, Double Lz, and the late Cadet.

On Friday, TheHxliday pulled a quintessential Mac Miller move and dropped a highly anticipated project on the same day as two music industry giants. While Mac famously posted up against Kanye West and J. Cole in 2013, TheHxliday shared his new EP last week amidst high-profile releases from J. Cole and Nicki Minaj. 

Previously led by singles such as the Polo G-assisted “Wit Dat” and “Salsa,” The Most Beautiful Disaster is an ambitious double-sided EP that illustrates his impressive versatility. As an artist who cites his favorite musical acts as My Chemical Romance, Bruno Mars, and Eazy-E, TheHxliday uses The Most Beautiful Disaster to show that he is just as multifaceted as his taste. 

At nine tracks, The Most Beautiful Disaster has a quick runtime of 26 minutes, and it also only features one guest verse from “Rapstar” artist Polo G. Thus, the new EP is the perfect sampler for those who are still catching onto the sensational new artist.

Check out the rest of The Most Beautiful Disaster below and let us know what you think about TheHxliday’s latest project.

Tracklist

Volume 1
1. A New Life
2. MiSSed Calls
3. Graveyard Melodies

Alkaline hasn’t let a summer pass without dropping something for us to ride out to but it has been a minute since he’s released an album. 2016’s New Level Unlocked marked his official debut album, following much speculation surrounding his mysterious presence in the dancehall community.

Even though we’ve waited five years, Alkaline has made sure that the wait was well worth it with the release of his latest album, Top Prize. The album is stacked with fourteen songs and a run-time of nearly 45-minutes of pure summer anthems. The featureless project includes previously released singles like “Cree,” “Ocean Wave,” and “Deh Suh”
