Victoria Monet Showcases Her Provocative & Lovey Side With The Deluxe Of “JAGUAR II”

by

It’s been quite a whirlwind of a year for the Sacramento, California raised singer and songwriter Victoria Monet. Just prior to dropping JAGUAR II, her long-awaited follow-up to it’s 2020 counterpart, it felt like she was on the cusp of really breaking out. It’s safe to say that became a reality, as the project went on to take home three GRAMMY awards (Best New Artist, R&B Album, and Engineered Album, Non-Classical). Unfortunately, those major wins have been followed up by painful loss. She has recently been dealing with a painful breakup from boyfriend and father to her daughter, John Gaines.

She expressed her emotions beautifully in a recent statement, saying how it’s essentially been a struggle but not messy by any means. Still, she’s making sure they are both moving on from each other in a healthy manner. Making music for most artist’s is a great way to escape from the stresses, and Victoria Monet dropping the deluxe of JAGUAR II could help her too. It may not be one of the reasons, but it does drop at an opportune time for her. It’s also here because of the incredible success of the original 11-song set. Monet has 10 new songs to share, including some older cuts such as “SOS” with USHER and “We Might Even Be Falling In Love (Duet)” with Bryson Tiller. Both highlight how in tune she is with her sexual and sensual side, as she leans into full erotica and super cuddly moments as well.

Leon Bridges Pours His Heart & Soul Into Self-Titled “Leon” LP

by

If you have a fondness for 60s era soul, then you may want to check out what Leon Bridges in bringing on his latest effort, Leon. The Columbia records signee from Fort Worth, Texas is giving audiences a heavy dosage of that, as well as some hints of country, gospel, and R&B. Across the 13-song project, you are getting a lot of mellow and soft instrumentation. Summer may be over, but this album’s soundscape has us daydreaming about those perfect temperature evenings while you take a ride in a 60s convertible around the coast. Right from the opening track, “When a Man Cries”, you can tell just how much love and emotion went into creating Leon.

Part of the reason for that is because Leon Bridges says this album has a lot of personal weight for him. In statement, he explains, “In many ways, Leon has been in the works since my childhood. This record is about simpler days. It’s about time spent in my beloved Fort Worth and the experiences that made me the man I am today. It’s soulful music in the truest sense; it’s imbued with my soul.” Moreover, he says that the style you are hearing on the record is something that he felt needed to be expanded upon and seen further. Leon had been working on this self-titled endeavor since his last record, 2021’s Gold-Diggers Sound. “They didn’t fit what I was trying to do with that album, and I tried moving on. But I couldn’t shake them because they’re part of me. And, if I’m honest, also because I think this is some of my most excellent work yet.” We certainly agree and it’s why you need to spin this immediately.

310Babii Drops Sophomore Album “310Degrees”

by

Rising Inglewood rapper 310Babii unloaded his latest album, 310Degrees. The 18-year-old has been earning some buzz online thanks in part to his 2023 viral hit, “Soak City.” The track earned him his first spot on the Billboard Hot 100 (peaking at #53) as well as a platinum certification. He also had the first major festival performance of his career, delivering a set at Rolling Loud Cali in March. Additionally, he performed “Soak City” on the red carpet at the BET Awards. And now, he’s back with his sophomore album, after releasing his debut album Nights & Weekends earlier this year.

310Degrees features a lengthy guest list. Roy Woods makes multiple appearances. OhGeesy, BlueBucksClan, Luh Tyler, Saweetie, and others round out the list. 310Babii blends familiar sounds from across popular hip-hop, but his California upbringing cuts through everything else and it is still a West Coast album at its core. At times, clear inspiration from contemporary California rappers shines through, including YG and Larry June. The album features some witty bars and upbeat production good for driving around to or dancing to. As 310Babii continues to work towards solidifying himself among the hottest prospects California has to offer, his growth is felt on his latest project, which clocks in at just under 30 minutes. Stream 310Degrees below and check out the interview HNHH did with 310Babii last December as well.

Rome Streetz & Daringer Drop Off Their Touted Collab Project “Hatton Garden Holdup”

by

Rome Streetz and Buffalo, New York producer Daringer have been reeling in quite a few curious ears lately. This unofficial duo has sneakily had hip-hop heads waiting for their collaboration project to drop. Well, Rome Streetz and Daringer have done just that this weekend, as Hatton Garden Holdup is now here. The London bred underground MC teased that him and his partner and crime had something serious cooking on his Instagram about three months ago. Accompanying a cold picture of them together was the caption, “We Been in the lab cooking up a batch,” Rome began. “Almost that time to put the slab out on the streetz… To put it real simple Rome Streetz and Daringer bout to Drop a Album and it’s a f***in scud missile… Stay tuned!!”

This got some serious attention, especially from fellow East Coast natives such as Conway the Machine, Westside Gunn, and more. Leading up to the tape, “Starbvxkz” and “Sage” featuring ScHoolboy Q just a few weeks before October 4. Overall, we can see why the hype for Hatton Garden Holdup was so real. Daringer is cooking on nearly every beat here. He’s able to create a luxurious, smoky, and grimy environment, which is perfect for an MC like Rome. His braggy and ultra-violent lyrics complement the various soundscapes that his beat maker lays down. Critics and causal listeners are raving about it as well, so be sure to get it on this ASAP.

Powers Pleasant Grabs 21 Different Features For “Life Sucks LP

by

Pro Era affiliate, producer, and DJ, Powers Pleasant, has delivered his sophomore project, Life Sucks. This the follow-up to the 30-year-old’s 2019 EP, Life Is Beautiful. That tape went on to feature the likes of now frequent collaborators Joey Bada$$ (Pro Era), Denzel Curry, A$AP Ferg, CJ Fly, Aaron Rose, Meechy Darko, and more. All of those same guests are now on Life Sucks, which can sort of be viewed as Powers Pleasant’s debut LP.

Leading up to the release of this tight 13-song tracklist, the Melt My Eyez See Your Future beat maker put out two singles. The first was the boastful and triumphant “Rumble” with Mr. Bada$$. Honestly, it should’ve been the tape’s opener, but Denzel Curry and Hannah Mundine’s “Entro” does the job too. Then, in September, Pleasant would deliver “Shmoke”, an East Coast trap/Jersey club mix that’s all gas and no brakes. In fact, that’s what most of this tape is. Plesant’s selection of guests (21 unique ones!) certainly helps make this a fun and easy-to-digest listening experience. Give it a spin with the links to your favorite streaming services below.

Tory Lanez Reissues One Of His Foundational Projects In “Lost Cause”

by

The theme for Tory Lanez in 2024 has been to revisit the good ole’ days. What we mean is that the Canadian rapper, singer, and producer has treated longtime fans to some of his older works that never got official releases. It started in early July with him dropping off “Lost Tapes” from various points in his over 10-year career. Just a few weeks later, Tory decided to give all of these songs a home on his “Free Tory Playlist”, which he announced via a prison phone call. In addition to that, “The Color Violet” MC would reveal that he was going to include some new songs from behind bars via the “Prison Tapes”. Sadly, they are currently discontinued until further notice. But this setback hasn’t deterred Tory Lanez because he’s still giving the people what they want with material like Lost Cause.

OG supporters will know what this is. But for those that don’t, this a 2014 mixtape that also never got to see the light of day on DSPs. It’s one of his earliest projects and in listening to it, you can certainly see how this helped lay the groundwork for what we know Tory’s sound to be today. That being the mixture of rap and R&B with some hints of alternative R&B. Lanez announced its rerelease in pretty emotional fashion on IG earlier this week by thanking Trina for helping make his music dreams reality. Check out the 10-year-old release (as of October 1), now.

Rich Homie Quan’s Estate Drops His First Posthumous Record “Forever Goin In”

by

Almost a month ago, Rich Homie Quan’s father, Corey Lamar, did an interview with AintYouMalcom. During their conversation, the rapper’s dad went onto to reveal that his son was close to releasing a new album. In fact, it was all done prior to his untimely death on September 5.  “Quan has probably 2000 unreleased songs. He has a catalog… He has a ton of music that the fans deserve to hear,” Lamar said. Well, 35 of the “200” are out today as the estate of Rich Homie Quan has released Forever Goin In.

Some of those 35 tracks were already out, such as “Ahi’chi” featuring 2 Chainz, and “Song Cry”, which is surprisingly not on the LP. On the surface, a lot of people may not check this out due to its sheer length. But there is a sentimental reason for there being 35 tracks. RHQ’s estate shared the project’s cover on his IG with the caption, “34 listed songs ironically that’s the age I… 🕊🙏🏿😔bonus 1 extra, because tomorrow will forever be a celebration!” It sure is a celebration and we are happy that his legacy is continuing to live on.

Tee Grizzley’s “Post Traumatic” Is His Most Ambitious Album To Date

by

Tee Grizzley has deceptive range as an artist. For someone who broke through with a hard-hitting sound, the rapper has proven that he can drop everything from lyrical miracles to sticky R&B melodies. His last few albums were concise in terms of tracklist, but they were also limited in scope. Post Traumatic, on the other hand, is sprawling. At 24 tracks, it is Tee Grizzley’s longest album to date, and it serves as the ideal showcase for all the different sounds and style he can convincingly pull off.

Post Traumatic starts off a bit show, but “Blow for Blow” gets the momentum going. From track three on, Tee Grizzley dishes out sample-based pop-rap on “All I Wanna Do.” He turns around and leans into hard trap tropes on the hooky “More Than Half.” Need more? How about a flirty R&B duet with Tink on “Ride or Die”? Post Traumatic keeps changing out the styles and featured artists while maintaining a cohesion and aesthetic consistency. It’s an impressive balance. Tee Grizzley sounds just as good opposite Future on the off-kilter “Swear to God” as he does Mariah the Scientist on “Situationship.” The length of Post Traumatic can be daunting, but even on shuffle, these various sounds cohere into a great listening experience.

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.

Sampha Somehow Makes “Lahai” Even Better With Four New Deluxe Cuts

by

Sampha doesn’t emerge from his cave very often, but when he does, it’s such a pleasure to witness him out in the wild. Even with his limited catalog, the London multi-hyphenate possesses one of the strongest amongst the rest of the talents in his playing field. Late last year, the feature powerhouse put out his sophomore album Lahai, which focuses a lot on family and big picture questions. He told NME, “I was just wondering about life and big questions, feeling the need to hold onto something or portray a bird’s eye view of my life because I felt like every day was going into every day”. The project certainly sounds as expansive as it’s themes, with sweeping and transformative instrumentals that evoke a sense of wonder and imagination.

We are almost exactly one year removed from it coming out and to help celebrate, Sampha has come through with the deluxe version of Lahai. There are four “new” songs to be had including the previously released “Satellite Business 2.0” featuring fellow UK artist and femcee, Little Simz. If there is a better fully fleshed out version of an interlude, we would like to hear it because this may be the best of its kind. Others include a more “aggressive” version of “Dancing Circles” with a “(2.0)” version, as well as “Re-Entry” and “Sensory Nectar”. Sampha says all of these tracks were either teased at shows and are evolutions of those live performances or are from the vault. Hint: These cuts make it even better.

RiTchie Links With Producer FearDorian For Six-Track EP “Quiet Warp Xpress”

by

It was just several months ago that RiTchie (Nathaniel Ritchie of Injury Reserve) began his solo career. The Phoenix, Arizona multi-genre talent did so by delivering “RiTchie Valens”. That would eventually go on to be the lead-off track for his solo debut album, Triple Digits [112]. The 14-song offering went on to receive some pretty decent reviews from fans and critics for its wild experimentation. It boasted features from the likes of Amine, Quelle Chris, and Niontay. After that, RiTchie decided to keep up the production just earlier this month with another single, “Cc Me”. For it, he recruited FearDorian, another fellow undergrounder who has been making some noise working with the likes of AyooLi and Polo Perks.

They put out their collaborative record, A Dog’s Chance, this past June. “Cc Me” would go on to serve as a lead single for this new joint EP between RiTchie and Dorian, Quiet Warp Xpress. This new duo would give us one more just a few days prior to this six-track effort’s release with the second-to-last cut, “Broke The Mold”. Both artists overall have very quirky and off-the-wall tendencies, so them linking for an extended play isn’t too surprising. However, what is a little shocking is the lack of cohesion and how rough it sounds. Reviews online are pointing to the loose song structures and nonchalant performances by RiTchie. We have to say we sort of agree with those opinions, sadly, However, we still want you to check out as much new music as possible so spin Quiet Warp Xpress and let us know what you think.
