Darren Waller Details What Life Has Been Like Lately On “Internal Warfare: This Too Shall Pass”

by

Darren Waller seems to be all about sharing his personal bouts with his fans because he’s doing just that on Internal Warfare: This Too Shall Pass. It’s his newest EP of 2024, and it boasts four tracks, and one lead single. The latter is “This Too Shall Pass,” which sees the ex-NFL star sing and rap passionately over a moody and forlorn beat about his struggles. However, on the uplifting chorus, he knows that things are going to improve over time. It’s also a message to his supporters and it feels like a real heart-to-heart moment on the record.

All of the themes and messages present on Internal Wafare really evoke a quote that Waller had in a recent press release. He says, “The title of this project accurately depicts what 2024 has been like for me. Lots of change has brought about all kinds of thoughts, emotions, and mood swings that have been overwhelming at times. At the same time, those have made room for greater clarity, allowing me to see all the good in my life and to know I’m right where I’m supposed to be.” There has definitely been a lot of moving pieces for Waller this year, as he shockingly retired from professional football after just nine years and also divorced from WNBA star Kelsey Plum following a year of marriage. These are major life shifts, but he’s battled tested and confident that he’s moving in the right direction on this EP.

Payroll Giovanni Drops Off Real “Hustle Muzik” On His New Tape

by

Payroll Giovanni seems to have a constant obsession with getting money and chasing dreams. In the first third of the year, the Detroit rapper was all about feeling good about himself in terms of his success. He was extremely confident that he worked hard for his wealth. This mentality gave him the standing to call out others who may be phonies when it comes to their money. Overall, Have Money Have Heart was a braggadocious EP that aimed to put his competition on blast.

However, the tune sort of changes to a degree on Payroll Giovanni’s newest offering, Hustle Muzik. On his first LP since his collaborative project with HBK back in September 2023, he’s playing the role of helpful mentor. Giovanni wants to see his listeners and friends believe in themselves and shoot for the stars. One track that really hits home is one of the album’s promotional singles, “Boss Affirmations.” He does rap in first person across it, talking about he never quits and that he’s always thinking big. But reciting the lyrics to yourself gives you a sense of empowerment and it makes you want to go after what you want in life. Giovanni definitely made this tape with the fans in mind, and it shows in the best ways.

Tyler, The Creator Stuns With His Latest Opus, “Chromakopia”

by

Tyler, the Creator is one of the most beloved artists in hip-hop right now. Although his career started with some pretty polarizing work, his output since 2018 has been praised by critics and fans alike. From Flower Boy to IGOR to Call Me If You Get Lost, the California-based artist has proven that he can make phenomenal albums and songs. Overall, this had fans hyped up for a new project. On Monday, Tyler delivered that project with Chromakopia. Tyler delivered a few teasers of this album, including “NOID” which was a rock-infused epic that had shades of Black Sabbath and King Crimson.

This new project has only a few features and is 14 tracks long. Moreover, it could be a polarizing one given the new sounds Tyler is going for. However, the project just came out, so you can be sure that fans need some time to digest the music and make some enlightened assessments. Either way, this is a project that will likely be one of the biggest of the year. Tyler always manages to make Album of the Year contenders. However, it will be interesting to see how this stacks up against every other artist who dropped this year.

Let us know what you think of the new Tyler The Creator album Chromakopia, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that this is Tyler’s best project to date? Was this an album that ultimately lived up to the expectations? 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.

Cochise Is Fully Himself On First LP In Two Years “Why Always Me?”

by

Some people live life carefree tenfold. One of those rappers is Florida native Cochise and he makes that very clear in his loose and sometimes blatantly unserious songs. However, he’s not one to take his existence on this planet nor in the music industry for granted. In a recent interview with Hypebeast surrounding the release of his new album, WHY ALWAYS ME?, Cochise explains that he’s just happy to be doing what he loves and doing so by not conforming to any trends. “I don’t have all these collaborations or co-signs. But I’m still here. By the grace of God,” he explains. He adds that this mindset helped him come up with the title.

Furthermore, it ties into his goals for this first tape in two years. Indirectly, he tells any aspiring musicians the key to becoming successful under your own terms. “I’m not trying to please anybody. I’m focused on my circle. You gotta find your own fan base and keep working with them. Find that group and lock in.” He certainly sounds in his element on WHY ALWAYS ME? no matter sort of beat he hops on. The first two tracks especially sound like signature Cochise as he gets absolutely enveloped into the epic intro “HOOK MAN,” as well as the mind-melting “GOOGLE ME.” It’s a project that is here to have fun and be itself, and we think his fans will find that to be true as well.

Che Noir Bodies Some Home-cooked Beats On “The Lotus Child”

by

Sometimes, hip-hop artists don’t always enjoy the writing and rapping aspect the most. Sometimes, they like getting behind the boards and piecing together melodies and instruments. That was the case for Che Noir, Buffalo, New York rapper and affiliate of 38 Spesh. She said it herself in the announcement of her latest record on social media. “I can’t wait til y’all hear what I cooked up on these beats. Production was my first love before rapping so it means the world to me to be back producing for myself,” Che Noir said about The Lotus Child. This her latest release in a busy 2024 that’s been filled with singles and an impressive EP in The Color Chocolate, Vol. 1.

If you aren’t too familiar with Che’s discography, her self-producing a project isn’t anything new. According to Underground Hip-Hop Blog, she was able to lay down some beats for her fourth EP After 12. Given all of this experience and passion for beat making, it’s not at all a shock that the soundscapes are lush and excellently crafted. Che is able to hit you with dark and aggressive boom-bap and vintage-esque R&B flavors as well. But all of this creative energy isn’t lacking in her performances on the mic at all. She raps about love, difficulties, and losses in her life, so the diversity is there topically as well. It’s another standout effort from Che Noir, so give it a try below.

Scarfo Da Plug’s Estate Shares First Posthumous Tape “From The Other Side, Vol. 1”

by

At the beginning of March 2021, the hip-hop community lost an underground soldier by the name of Scarfo Da Plug. He was a New Orleans rapper who carved out a role in the trap space and was steadily on the rise. He had been making noise since 2017 and broke through when he delivered Eviction Notice 2. Multiple songs from the tape are still some of his most streamed to date such as “Happier,” “Problems,” “Bad Influence,” and “Stressed Out.” He still has loyal fans to this day, even though his estate has not been releasing anything from the vault. Well, today that all changes, as Scarfo Do Plug’s From The Other Side, Vol. 1 is here as of Thursday.

However, this posthumous project comes during a frustrating and saddening time for the MC’s loved ones. Since two murder suspects from Georgia were arrested a few years ago, there hasn’t been much headway. This week though, the murder trial for Scarfo Da Plug was supposed to begin, specifically October 21. However, for some reason, things were pushed back until December, according to an update on IG from his family. They were releasing Scarfo Da Plug’s From The Other Side in celebration of justice beginning to be served. But even though they are dealing with this setback, they felt they couldn’t keep it any longer. We continue to wish the family and friends of Scarfo well during this painful period.

Hunxho Looks To Make A Splash With Sophomore Record “Thank God”

by

Hunxho’s name has been growing rapidly over these last several months or so. He’s been grinding since 2017, but the 2020’s decade has been especially kind to him. The rapper and singer who has roots in North Carolina and Georgia keeps collecting career milestones as he was recently announced as a 2024 XXL Freshman. He’s also been taking advantage of this stretch by notching some impressive guest spots. He’s got tracks with Lil Durk, Tee Grizzley, Polo G, Latto, Babyface Ray, and so many more.

Now, this weekend, Hunxho is speeding up the path to stardom with his newest album, Thank God. It’s his sophomore studio album released under 300 Entertainment, and it boasts 22 songs.

Ty Dolla $ign, Don Toliver, Mariah the Scientist, and his new boo Keyshia Cole, are only a few of the established stars here. Four singles were a part of the rollout, including “Part Of The Plan” and “Hold Me Down.” You’re going to hear a lot of songs about winning and being thankful and humble about it, all of which boast Hunxho’s versatility to melodically rap and croon.

G Herbo Enlists Chris Brown, Meek Mill, & Lil Durk For “Big Swerv 2.0”

by

G Herbo has built a reputation for himself over the last 10 years as one of the main voices of the Chicago drill subgenre. That longevity has certainly paid dividends and bolsters that claim even more. His consistency is also another reason why he deserves that title, as he has had a new project at the ready practically every year. 2024 has been no exception, as he dropped of Big Swerv, a 14-song effort in early September.

The goal was a little bit different for Herbo this time around, focusing more on the pleasures in life rather than its cons. “I want to talk about having fun, I want to talk about traveling the world, and living life, and fashion, and stuff that everybody loves, that everybody can relate to,” he told HipHopDX prior to its release. He succeeded in that regard, and it seems that G Herbo has really been loving this release because he’s adding to it by bringing out Big Swerv 2.0. This deluxe tacks on seven more records, three of which are collaborations. He shows off his more sensitive side with Chris Brown on “Play Your Part.” Then, with the Meek Mill and Lil Durk team-ups, Herbo gets into his introspective and motivational bag that he’s known for. Check out the new additions for yourself with the DSP links.

“MEGAN: ACT II” Is Megan Thee Stallion’s Most Entertaining Album Yet

by

Megan Thee Stallion did not take much time off. The rapper dropped her titular album, MEGAN, in June, and now she’s back with a sequel. The first MEGAN featured the number one single “HISS,” along with a varied roster of features. She held her own with UGK and GloRilla, to exemplify how varied. MEGAN: ACT II is a different affair, however. There are definitely varied sounds and features, as evidenced by a collab with BTS star RM. “Neva Play” proved Megan Thee Stallion was not a one trick pony (no pun intended), and MEGAN: ACT II reiterates this with a concise and punchy collection of songs.

To be clear, MEGAN: ACT II is sequel and a deluxe version of the original all in one. All the hits you loved from the first album are present, but the new songs are much more fun to discuss. “Number One Rule” has a menacing instrumental and a relentless flow from Megan. It sounds like something pulled out of the 8Ball & MJG playbook, and Megan does the sound justice. “Bourbon” has a freestyle feel to it, and it gives the rapper a chance to casually talk her talk. The biggest surprise, though, is the penultimate song, “Like a Freak.” Megan Thee Stallion spits over the beat to Far East Movement’s “Like a G6.” It’s the sort of obvious sample that’s bound to blow up on social media.

Let us know what you think of this brand new album, 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.

DC The Don Makes Some Bold But Accurate Proclamations On His New “REBIRTH” Album

by

Los Angeles, California rapper by way of Milwaukee, DC The Don, has been making waves in the underground scene for a few years. He’s slowly been building his vision and his soundscape, which is a mixture of emo rap, R&B, trap, rage, and more. With every release, it seems that the 25-year-old is becoming more detail-oriented and mature. Sure, there’s going to be some carefree and ignorant tracks going forward (there are some on his new album), but overall, he’s growing exponentially. That is something that can be said about DC The Don on REBIRTH.

He’s recognized this himself, but he’s also noticed how the listeners are picking up on it. DC talked about in his recent interview with Our Generation Music, saying, “People are starting to realize that everything I’m dropping is high quality. My fans knew that, but I think now exposure is different. I think that moment (speaking on the REBIRTH single “VENUS”) allowed people to understand that people hear from me it won’t be some bulls***.” We certainly agree with them because there really isn’t much filler whatsoever on this 18-song set. You are getting a nice mixture of atmospheres, but yet they all come across as cohesive. Without much of a doubt, this is DC’s strongest effort to date.
