1oneam Drops Off Deluxe Of “One Life” With “One Death”

by

We are happy to welcome another newcomer to the HNHH site this weekend, as we are taking a look at 1oneam and his new tape, One Death. Not much is available on the rapper, singer, and producer, as he keeps a pretty low profile on his social media pages. He’s been in the underground trap/Pluggnb scenes for the last three years though, so this looks to be just the way he moves in general. He hails from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which has mostly been dominated by the low-end scene. To the trained ears, you may be able to track down some references to that wave, but 1oneam seems to borrow more from his ATL counterparts.

As we said, we are listening to his new project, One Death, which boasts eight songs of truly rich soundscapes. They range from intoxicating and woozy, to ethereal and dark. He also shows off his creative side on this eight-song tape, as he incorporates random sound effects like on “Facetime” and “Alicia Keys.” On the former 1oneam samples the FaceTime ringtone and works into the whimsical chime-laced beat. Then, on the latter, he heads to the world of Minecraft and uses the door opening and closing sound effect. Even though this is a separate listening experience, it’s also not. According to Genius, this is a deluxe extension of his May album One Life. That tape was 14 tracks but similarly had no features. Give 1oneam and One Death a try with the links below to your favorite DSPs.

Zach Zoya Opts For An Alternative Soundscape On His Cheery “It’s Always Sunny In Glendale” EP

by

Zach Zoya is a pretty eclectic guy and doesn’t really conform to one genre and he shows that blissful ignorance on It’s Always Sunny in Glendale. This the fourth EP from the Canadian youngster, who made this project based on some experiences between Montreal and Los Angeles, as well as Glendale. In his announcement, Zoya said, “New city, new vibes, new energy, new people around me, new trials and tribulations, new ups and downs. Safe to say this past year has been a deeply challenging and formative one,” he began. “I only get to do what I do because of the team behind me, friends around, music lovers everywhere. Thank you to everyone who’s helped me make this project a reality. What a life, spent my twenties chasing sunshine🧡🧡🧡🧡.”

Clearly, this project has a lot of personal weight in his eyes, and we can hear the passion in each track. Whether he’s singing or rapping, he’s making sure to bring it 110% every time. Throughout the 17-minute listening experience, it’s definitely taking us back to those hotter months as the grooves and instrumentals embody the West Coast. You can tell that Zoya was heavily inspired by the new sights he got to witness during the making of Always Sunny in Glendale. The project arrives after a highly raved performance at Osheaga earlier in the year. So, overall, he’s definitely on a high right now and we are here for it.

Popstar Benny Recruits A Fleet Of Atlanta Femcees For His New Album “Oasis”

by

“Atlanta is in its female renaissance. All the girls got something to prove — that’s why they can do it better than a lot of the guys.” These are the words of Atlanta producer and curator Popstar Benny on his brand-new album, Oasis. He definitely makes a valid point there, especially in the case of this year. Outside of the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef, they have been the biggest trending topic in hip-hop. To help put more people on to the rising female rap stars in the ATL, the veteran beatmaker (Rod Wave, Kevin Abstract, Destroy Lonely) has brought on an entire roster of them.

Names include Coco, Clair Clair, Vayda, SPOOK, Woo Da Savage, sadboi, and more. If you have heard previous beats from Benny, you know he’s not your typical trap maestro. Instead, he likes to incorporate some off-kilter sound effects. Those are all over the 18-minute-long tape and they are bolstered by some of the MC’s off-beat flows/deliveries. Princesa 28 on the grimy and alien-like “Britney Spears” is a great example of that. However, “Reverb” with Glorygirl2950 might take the cake in that regard. Overall, it’s a tape that doesn’t overstay its welcome but is memorable given how some of these songs are demo length. Adding to its weirdness is the fact this project was supposedly recorded by Benny in a treehouse Airbnb in roughly a week.

BigXthaPlug Brings Charm & Realness To His Sophomore Album “TAKE CARE”

by

Dallas, Texas native BigXthaPlug has stomped into this year with some big expectations. After two successful projects, AMAR and THE BIGGEST, he earned XXL Freshman honors. He joined fellow Texans That Mexican OT and 4batz on that list and it’s going to be interesting to see who separates themselves from one another. So far, we may have to give the slight edge to BigXthaPlug, as he arguably has the best project out all of them now with TAKE CARE. This is his sophomore alum, and it’s all him. The features are getting tossed out for this one, as BigX is looking to show us what makes him who he is as a person.

One of those is being a dad, as he expressed how much it means to him that he is one with Apple Music. The father of two tells Ebro, “My kids is what drives me. That’s the reason when I’m tired and I get up every day when I don’t get up, they’re the reason.” He makes sure to highlight just how much they inspire him on “Therapy Session,” an immediate fan favorite. “When I be away from ’em I cry / ‘Cause I love ’em the most, I’d hate for them to ever say that their daddy wasn’t right on they side.” On top of giving fans “The Largest” look behind the curtain, his producers, namely BandPlay, are bringing that Southern charm thanks to some terrific soulful sample usage from all eras.

Rich The Kid, Famous Dex, & Jay Critch Get The Band Back Together For “Rich Forever 5”

by

Rich The Kid, Famous Dex, and Jay Critch (Rich Forever) were one of the bigger rap groups in the late 2010’s. However, over the last half decade, the trap trio has been focusing on their solo careers. Since 2019, Rich The Kid has put out four tapes, one of which was a collab tape with Lil Wayne called Trust Fund Babies. Furthermore, the Georgia native has been on some of the largest records over the last year with Kanye West’s “CARNIVAL” being one of them. For, Famous Dex, he’s been laying extremely low. He just has one tape to his name, which is 2020’s Diana. Finally, the New Yorker, Jay Critch, he’s got five LPs to his name.

Now, after all of this time, they are reuniting for Rich Forever 5, the fifth entry in their trio’s discography. There wasn’t a ton of promotion for this record, as they dropped off “Big Dawg” in mid-December last year. Furthermore, there wasn’t a lot of information surrounding it in terms of its progression since that lead single. But the wait is finally over for those who have been yearning for a reunion. Here, Rich, Dex, and Critch, keep the tracklist to 16 cuts, with features from Trippie Redd, Kodak Black, and Lil Crix. Stream the project with the DSP links below.

Rod Wave Might Be On His “Last Lap” With This Latest Album

by

At this point, everyone knows the deal when it comes to what Rod Wave is going to do on an album. From the writing to the themes and the production, the St. Petersburg native has a creative process that he knows his fans will love, no matter how much time he takes in between LPs. In this case, it’s been just over a year since Nostalgia was the hot new thing on the block. With Rod Wave now dropping Last Lap this Friday, the singer and rapper has now dropped a project ever year since 2017.

This sixth studio album boasts 23 tracks and includes features from Lil Baby, Rylo Rodriguez, and Lil Yachty. The tracklist is led by “Passport Junkie” and “Fall Fast in Love,” both of which were released in September. Last Lap sees Rod Wave features your typical painful love songs as well as songs about his mental health. In addition to that, there are some cuts about losing family and friends, whether that to be prison bars or simply passing away. The title track, for instance, is a dedication to his late uncle and manager Uncle Dee, who lost his life this past summer (via Hypebeast). At points, Rod does come across as unsure about his own life and how all of these tragedies happening around him will affect him in the long term.

GloRilla Is The Life Of The Party On Her Electric Debut Album “Glorious”

by

GloRilla has been building a buzz for a minute. She has proven to be one of the most exciting and consistent names in hip hop when it comes drop fun and energetic party anthems. “TGIF” popped off during the summer, and the scene-stealing verses GloRilla dropped on other albums ensured that she would have plenty of eyes on her debut. Well, Glorious is finally here, and it lives up to its title. GloRilla doesn’t overstay her welcome, and instead delivers a concise, 42-minute showcase for all her pros and stylistic strengths. “INTRO” proves that few can sound harder than her on a trap beat, while the second song, “HOLLON,” is one of her hardest singles to date.

The highlights continue on the album cuts. GloRilla and Latto swap lavish bars on “PROCEDURE,” while the former and Sexyy Red go even harder on the soon-to-be hit “WHATCHU KNOW ABOUT ME.” It’s the exact kind of sound and subject matter that both rappers are known for, and they make it sound great. It is a testament to GloRilla, however, that the less obvious songs also work on Glorious. “Stop Playing” is one of the album’s highlights, and it packs a positive message into a hypnotic, snappy throwback beat. GloRilla even sounds good opposite Kirk Franklin on “RAIN DOWN ON ME.” GloRilla showed even more range than was expected, ensuring that she’s going to stick around in the game.

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.

Pharrell Continues To Impress With “Piece By Piece” Soundtrack

by

Pharrell knows how to make great music. He’s been doing it since 1992, when he penned a verse for the classic rap single “Rump Shaker.” The single is on the Piece By Piece soundtrack, since the movie of the same name tells Pharrell’s life and career story. There are other classic songs on here, and collabs with the likes of JAY-Z, Snoop Dogg, Clipse, and Justin Timberlake. Piece By Piece is, in one regard, one of the best greatest hits packages you could ever hope to come across. It is a sampler of the best hip hop, pop and R&B music of the last three decades. Don’t worry, though, there’s new stuff too.

It would be pointless to sit here and write about the merits of, say, “Superthug” or “Get Lucky” with Daft Punk. You know these songs, and depending on how you feel about “Happy,” you love these songs. It’s the new material, largely composed and performed by Pharrell solo, that makes Piece By Piece such an interesting listen. Most of the new songs are up top, and they are stellar. “For Real” and the title song are Pharrell in his bag, dishing out radiant melodies over oddball production. The obvious highlight is the “Virginia Boy” remix, though. Pharrell and his protege, Tyler, The Creator, sound like they’re having a ball on the hard-hitting song.

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.

Toosii Brings His Signature Melding Of R&B & Trap On “JADED”

by

Toosii is an underrated master of nailing catchy melodies in the R&B/trap space. Granted, it might be because he’s only been in the industry for about four years. But overall, he’s someone you are going to want to stay tapped into moving into the rest of the 2020s decade. He’s got some elements of Gunna and Bryson Tiller, so if you are into those artists, that’s another reason to check out what he’s got cooking. Speaking of which Toosii is cheffing up those exact vibes on his newest album, JADED. This follows up his June 2023 offering NAUJOUR, which is led by his most popular song to date, “Favorite Song”.

Across JADED, you are getting nonchalant Toosii that’s pushing any sort of feelings (especially of true love) down. Yes, there are some love cuts within the 13-songs. However, they are more about lust and sneaky links. Most of the time, the Raleigh, North Carolina native is rapping about reaching his own goals and living lavishly. “Champs Elysees”, one of the lead-off tracks featuring Gunna, is an example of this. Speaking of singles, “Fuk You Mean” is the only other song to have been released prior to JADED. There are some duds in the tracklist such as “She Doesn’t Mind”. But for the most part, Toosii does have more W’s than L’s here. Give it a try with the links below to see how you’re vibing with it.

Jordan Ward & Joony Ruminate On Love On New EP “JRNY”

by

After bursting onto the scene with his 2023 sophomore album FORWARD, St. Louis singer Jordan Ward has solidified himself as a player in the future of R&B. The album received praise from critics and fans alike. Fans who heard the album thought it had an outside shot at winning the crowded “Best Progressive R&B Album” category at the most recent Grammy Awards. Unfortunately, it did not receive a nomination. It got so much love that he earned a co-sign from SZA, the woman who did eventually win in that category. SZA is the biggest name in R&B today and one of the most acclaimed artists of her generation. Needless to say, that is a high honor. “IDC,” the second track on FORWARD, featured a verse from Maryland rapper Joony, also a budding name. Now, the two are further exploring their musical chemistry on JRNY, their new extended play and first project together.

The two mull over the difficulties of love, a recurring theme on Jordan Ward’s previous album. He sings about infidelity, jealous partners, and other aspects of heartbreak. The production is varied, and both he and Joony sound at home over it. They really do work well together, as they take different approaches to similar subject matter. Ward with his singing and Joony with his bars. Jordan Ward even does a bit of rapping on the last track, showing off his versatility as an artist and reaffirming why people thought so highly of FORWARD. At six songs and only 13 minutes, it does not overstay its welcome, and even if you are not previously familiar with Jordan Ward or Joony, this should still be on your radar. Stream the new offering from the duo below.
