SleazyWorld Go Delivers High-Octane Single “Who The Who’s”

August 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s already been a busy year for SleazyWorld Go, and fortunately for fans, it doesn’t look like he plans on slowing down any time soon. Currently, the Missouri rapper is gearing up to unleash his eagerly anticipated new album, More Than A Shooter. Listeners won’t have to wait too much longer to hear it, as the project is slated for release on September 6 of this year.

Ahead of the full release, however, SleazyWorld Go has decided to give his fans a taste of what’s to come. Late last week, he unveiled his new single “Who The Who’s.” On the high-octane track, the 26-year-old artist raps about clashing with opps and coming out on top every time. It arrived alongside a lively accompanying music video, which shows him and his crew getting rowdy on a bus, riding a horse, and more. It sets the tone for the rest of the anxiously awaited project and serves as a promising preview.

The release of “Who The Who’s” follows several other singles he unveiled in recent months, including “Where Them Shooters At,” “WTW,” “32 Bars,” and more. It also follows his collaboration with Babyfxce E, “Mama Said.” What do you think of SleazyWorld Go’s new track? What about its accompanying music video? Are you looking forward to hearing the rapper’s new album More Than A Shooter when it finally drops next month? Share your thoughts in the comments section and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Megan Thee Stallion Teases Cinematic Music Video For “MEGAN” Cut “Mamushi”

August 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Megan Thee Stallion’s rollout for her new album MEGAN isn’t over yet, and with a wild tour behind her, she’s got more goods to focus on now. Moreover, she recently teased a new music video for the Yuki Chiba-assisted album cut “Mamushi,” which recently became the project’s latest single. The track has been one of the record’s biggest so far, so it’s no surprise that it’s getting a little extra love through a visual treatment. We don’t know when this new music video should be coming out or what it should include, but based on the black and white imagery, this bilingual song should be paying homage to Japanese film in one way or another.

Elsewhere, folks are ignoring Megan Thee Stallion’s killer year in the face of her Kamala Harris endorsement, including some callouts from Lil Pump. “Nicki Manaj > Megan stallion,” he shared online. “Who tf performs at a kamal Harris rally. She’s an embarrassment to the culture. This is an embarrassment to our country. Kamal Harris should’ve booked killer mike for the rally instead of Megan estallian. Kamala Harris needs Megan the stallion shaking a** to have people show up to her rally. Donald Trump needs himself to have people show up to his rally. One person is powered by the people, the other is powered by the establishment. Trump 2024 [U.S. flag emoji].”

Regardless of petty politics and put-downs, Megan Thee Stallion is also facing a lot of scrutiny for reignited conspiracy theories about the Tory Lanez shooting, which her former best friend Kelsey Nicole had to address once again on Twitter. “It’s easy to get lost in the media, but let’s remember MY NAME was cleared by both parties involved. Stay tuned,” she shared online.

Meanwhile, this isn’t the first time that Megan Thee Stallion teased the “Mamushi” video, so you should catch up on that if you’re excited for the visuals. We wonder whether other MEGAN cuts will also get the MV treatment or if they will remain underrated fan picks from the discog. Either way, we’ll see what else 2024 holds for the Houston femcee after an already staggering seven months.

Gordo And Drake Drop Inspirational Music Video For “Healing”: Watch

July 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Gordo and Drake really locked into a tropical vibe on DIAMANTE. There are tons of standout songs scattered throughout the album, but the closer, “Healing,” is especially powerful. It’s one of the most positive and uplifting songs Drake has released in years. As such, the song was a no brainer to get the music video treatment. “Healing” may not align with the visuals that fans DIAMANTE promotes on its album cover, though. Instead of a lush, globe-trotting vibe, the video tells a ground narrative within a South African village.

The music video revolves around South African TikToker “The Don Madfunz.” It details the literal lengths that Madfunz has to walk (nine miles) to get to work each day. The music video then takes an emotional turn when Gordo decides to gift the TikToker a brand new car. It’s very much a page take from Drake’s “God’s Plan” video, in terms of capturing the reactions of those less fortunate, but it is effective. One would be hard-pressed to watch the video for “Healing” and not be swept up in the joy that Madfunz experiences when he first sees the car.

Gordo’s Music Video Focuses On A South African Family

Gordo and Drake don’t technically appear in the music video, but the latter does make a cameo via FaceTime towards the end. He admits that he’s been thinking about the TikToker’s story nonstop. “It means so much to me,” Gordo noted. “How much effort you put into your life. I really love and I just wanted to do something to help, brother.” The producer provides a detailed backstory for “The Don Madfunz” in the YouTube description for the music video. “We filmed in Dududu, a rural area about an hour outside of Durban,” he revealed. “We captured Don’s everyday life – the simple joys, the positivity, and the resilience.”

Themes of universality and connectivity were on Gordo’s mind during the making of DIAMANTE. During a recent Rolling Stone profile, the producer claimed that he wanted to break down cultural boundaries with his music. “There’s a purpose with this album,” he explained. “And the purpose is that I’m connecting the dots between all these different worlds, and I’m doing it the most tasteful way possible.” The music video for “Healing” hammers this point home in a very powerful manner. It’s more powerful than a big, glossy shoot with Drake would have been.

MGK’s New Music Video Has Sparked Megan Fox Pregnancy Rumors

July 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

MGK and Megan Fox are a celebrity couple in every sense of the phrase. They love the limelight, and using it to bolster their reputations as eccentrics. They really outdid themselves with MGK’s new music video, though. The rapper and actress appear in the video for “Lonely Road,” and they play a couple who are expecting their first child. Megan Fox can be seen sporting a very prominent baby bump throughout the video. Naturally, this has led to speculation that MGK and Fox are going to be starting a family in real life.

Pregnancy doesn’t play a part in “Lonely Road” video so much as serve as the primary focus. MGK plays a criminal who gets locked up, and Fox visits him in prison after giving birth to their child. Naturally, fans have flocked to social media to theorize that the couple are covertly revealing their own pregnancy in the process. It’s the sort of dramatic unveiling that MGK and Megan Fox would go for, but there’s no proof to support these claims. For one, Fox has recently been seen in public, and does not have a baby bump. If the bump she was sporting in the music video was real, it would have been easily spotted by fans.

MGK And Megan Fox Previously Suffered A Miscarriage

It’s also worth considering MGK and Fox’s past. The couple suffered a miscarriage in 2023, and Fox detailed the devastating aftermath during an interview with People Magazine. “I’ve never been through anything like that in my life,” she told the outlet. “I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us and it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately.” Fox also wrote about the miscarriage in her memoir, Pretty Boys Are Poisonous. “I want to hold your hand / hear your laugh,” she wrote in poem form. “But now / I have to say / goodbye…. As they rip you from my insides.”

MGK also took the miscarriage to heart. The rapper wrote the song “Twin Flame” in honor of his unborn child. He confirmed the inspiration during a performance at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards. “[This is] for my wife,” he said during the performance. “And this is for our unborn child.” “Twin Flame” features the sound of a heartbeat in the instrumental, furthering the emotional devastation of the song. MGK has a daughter from a previous relationship, and Fox has three kids from an earlier marriage. If they are in fact expecting, then they will let the world known soon enough.

Megan Thee Stallion Flaunts Her Curves In Edgy Black Fit After “Mamushi” Video Shoot

July 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s been a busy month for Megan Thee Stallion, and it looks like she has even more exciting things on the way. She’s currently preparing to wrap up her “Hot Girl Summer” tour with some final shows in the U.S., but before that, she stopped in Japan to shoot a music video. The video in question will accompany her fan-favorite Megan track with Yuki Chiba, “Mamushi.”

Today, Meg took to Instagram to share a series of photos from her trip, posing in an edgy black outfit. In her caption, she expressed how much she loves Japan and isn’t looking forward to heading back home. “I I never want to leave ,” she wrote. “MAMUSHI VIDEO SHOOT FINISHED .”

She complemented her unique look with plenty of Japanese-inspired temporary back tattoos and some simple silver jewelry. Fans are loving the “Hiss” performer’s latest batch of photos, and can’t wait to see her upcoming music video. These are far from the only shots she’s shared from her trip, however. Earlier this week, she paused a shopping trip to show off an eye-catching all-denim look, which she paired with a bright red bob. She also recently stepped out in a bold cow-inspired hat, a furry Louis Vuitton bag, and some cow print nails.

An upcoming music video isn’t the only thing she has to look forward to either, as she’s currently gearing up to drop her very own tequila brand. She also recently teamed up with Bread Of Life, Inc. to help provide Houston’s senior citizens with generators following Hurricane Beryl’s devasting impact on her hometown. What do you think of Megan Thee Stallion’s new Japanese photo dump? Are you looking forward to seeing her “Mamushi” music video?

50 Cent Can’t Get Enough Of Cardi B’s “Bodak Yellow” Video Outtake

July 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

50 Cent has a near universal approval rating as a social media presence. He regularly posts hilarious memes, trolls the likes of Diddy, and links up with artists he likes. 50 Cent and Cardi B are both New York legends, and we’re happy to assure readers that there’s no beef brewing between them. Instead, the G-Unit mogul dug up behind-the-scenes footage of Cardi B’s breakout video “Bodak Yellow.” The footage sees Cardi B very clearly freaked out by wild animal she interacts with, and 50 thinks it’s hilarious.

50 Cent posted the footage on his Instagram. The quality is not top-notch, but Cardi B can clearly be seen trying to rap “Bodak Yellow.” As anyone who’s seen the official video can recall, Cardi is holding a leopard on a leash during one of the set-ups. It’s a cool visual, but it’s one that evidently stressed the rapper out. Cardi B raps a few bars before the leopard turns her way and hisses. The rapper is very clearly (and understandably) freaked out by the incident. “Okay, no, no, no,” she tells someone off screen. “Come hold him.” A man is then heard ordering someone to “take him” away from Cardi B.

50 Cent Admits He’d Be As Scared As Cardi B

Obviously, the rapper got through the shoot unscathed. Knowing this, 50 Cent found the footage to be absolutely side-splitting. “Yo this this sh*t had me crying,” he wrote on Instagram. “Cardi said no come get him.” The rapper had a good laugh, but he admitted that he would be just as freaked out to be close to a wild animal without protection. “Lol hahahahaha,” he added. “I be scared of that sh*t too f*ck that.” 50 Cent is no stranger to music video complications, either. In 2012, the rapper was hospitalized shortly after the release of the video for “Complicated.”

50 Cent’s bulletproof SUV was rear-ended by a Mack truck on New York’s Long Island Expressway mere hours after the video dropped. The rapper, along with his driver, were sent to the hospital around 3 a.m. Fortunately, neither man was seriously hurt. According to XXL, they were released within hours. When he’s not scrolling through Instagram, 50 Cent is busy making tons off the streaming profits to his classic single “Many Men (Wish Death).” The song became a meme after the recent assassination attempt on Donald Trump, and streaming numbers have shot up a staggering 300%.

Childish Gambino’s “Lithonia” Music Video Takes A Horrifying Turn: Watch

July 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Childish Gambino knows how to sell an aesthetic. He alters his look for each album rollout, and the music videos that accompany his singles follow suit. “3005” is worlds away from “This Is America,” and his new single, “Lithonia,” is different from both. The video for “Lithonia” starts off with a surprisingly minimal set up. Childish Gambino steps to the mic and sings. The camera focuses on his mouth, and stays put for the first 40 seconds before cutting to a wide shot. From there, a band shuffles in behind the artist and starts jamming.

“Lithonia” has a rock and post-punk influence, which is relatively within Childish Gambino’s catalog. The band members will look familiar to fans of both indie music and film. The drummer is Alex Wolff, who got his start in the Naked Brothers Band but has since gone on to star in the classic horror flick Hereditary. The guitarist is Ludwig Goransson, Gambino’s longtime producer and Oscar-winning composer of the film Oppenheimer. A small audience sits before the band, listening intently as the music swells. It’s the switch at the 1:30 mark, though, where things really take a turn for the weird. The band members begin to exhibit strange behavior, culminating with Gambino screaming until his eyeballs literally explode.

Childish Gambino Turns Feral In New Music Video

The girl in the front row gets covered in blood, and proceeds to run out of the studio. The video hard cuts to her running outside, but Childish Gambino chases after her. The artist can no longer see (obviously), but feral instincts appear to have kicked in, and he lets out an animalistic scream. It’s pretty unsettling, especially given how sudden the shift from weirdness to outright terror is. Gambino has never officially dabbled in horror, but he’s flirted with the genre in the past. He was the co-creator and producer of the HBO show Swarm, which detailed a woman’s disturbing obsession with a pop star.

The music video for “Lithonia” also harkens back to Childish Gambino’s breakout single, “Bonfire.” The 2011 standout from Camp featured the rapper waking up in the woods with a noose around his neck. He spends the rest of the video trying to warn his friends about an impending murderer. The video ends with Childish Gambino realizing that he’s a ghost, and that none of the other campers can see or hear him. We’re curious to see how the rest of the Bando Stone and the New World music videos continue the “Lithonia” storyline.

Future Drops “Rotation” Music Video To Celebrate Nine Years Of “DS2”

July 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Future is one of the defining rappers of his generation. He may not have the pedigree of the Big Three, but his consistency is something to be marveled at. He took Lil Wayne’s work ethic and coated it with his own codeine-laced style. Fans continue to debate which Future tape is best, but there’s no denying that Dirty Sprite 2 is his most iconic. It’s the album in which he put everything together. It rebranded him in a way that he’s still benefiting from today. Future knows how beloved DS2 is, and he gave fans a surprise release for the album’s tenth anniversary.

Future released a music video for the album cut “Rotation” on July 18. The rapper doesn’t really mince words when it comes to his rollouts, so he kept brief in the caption. “Unreleased, 9years later,” he wrote on Instagram. “DS2 PLUTO back.” It’s not clear if Future meant that DS2 Pluto was back for the sake of the anniversary, or if the aesthetic and vibe of DS2 Pluto would be returning for his next album. Either way, we’re happy to see him again. The music video for “Rotation” is predictably grimy, with the rapper walking around a gas station with a double cup. It looks like it was shot in a single night, which was part of the appeal of DS2‘s DIY approach.

DS2‘s reputation is bulletproof these days, even among non-Future fans. That being said, Southside was nervous about the album’s direction when it was being made. “We were nervous,” the producer admitted to Complex in 2020. “It was a new sound and a new swag… [the fans] were accepting everything and we didn’t want to miss. We had to make sure it was right.” Southside produced six tracks on the OG version of DS2, and four more on the deluxe. Fittingly, Southside’s favorite memory from the DS2 sessions was making “Rotation.”

Southside claimed that he and Metro Boomin made the beat right in front of Future’s eyes. To make the whole thing more impressive, Future laid down his verse in even less time than it took to make the music. “He really rapped everything that was going on in the room,” the producer recalled. “He really bought all the sodas at the gas station. [Future] rapped everything that was going on. It was just funny. I’m like, ‘This man’s crazy.’” Crazy or not, the process worked, and now we have a music video for it.

Jae Skeese & Big K.R.I.T. Get “Situated” On New Track With Sauce Walka

July 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

These days, Buffalo-born performer Jae Skeese is hard at work, as his upcoming album is on the horizon. The project, titled Ground Level, is currently slated for release on August 16. Marking a pivotal point in his career, the LP will include various high-profile features from the likes of Jay Worthy, Dave East, Project Pat, Smoke DZA, Statik Selektah, and many more. The rapper even teamed up with Big K.R.I.T. and Sauce Walka for a track on the new album, which they unveiled last week. “Situated” features mellow production and high-octane bars about making money, personal evolution, and more. It serves as a solid introduction to the upcoming project, putting Skeese’s lyrical dexterity and laid-back flow on full display.

“Ground Level represents my progression from the basement to building upon the foundation I’ve laid over the past three years. This includes my Drumwork debut Abolished Uncertainties (2023) and my collaboration with Conway The Machine, Pain Provided Profit. I’m now exploring how much higher I can climb from this first floor,” Skeese says of the upcoming project.

“The Ground Level mindset is about overcoming challenges and reaching new heights while staying grounded,” he also adds. What do you think of Jae Skeese and Big K.R.I.T.’s new collab with Sauce Walka? Will you be adding “Situated” to your summer playlist or not?

Yungeen Ace Drops New “Ready To Die” Single & Music Video Following Foolio Hit Allegations

July 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Yungeen Ace is on a roll, as his diss tracks towards his late rival Foolio paved the way for a lot of viral engagement these days. To keep this hot streak up, he just dropped a new single and music video, “Ready To Die,” whose title and subject matter obviously invokes the late shooting subliminally and indirectly… or as low-key as it could given the circumstances. Regardless, it’s a pretty by-the-numbers visual treatment for a trap banger, but we’re sure that hardcore fans will be pretty happy with the results. Considering all the drama and speculation around Ace’s name right now, we expect many more releases emerge in 2024.

The big story right now, which Yungeen Ace hasn’t responded to in any serious manner at press time, is a claim from an unidentified male on social media that Ace paid him to carry out the hit on Foolio. “On everything I love, on the dead homies, I put it on everything, on my soul, on my kid, n***a: I’m the one that smacked Julio Foolio that night when he got dropped at his birthday celebration,” the mystery man said. “I ain’t gonna show my face or give my identity away or nothing like that, but you know, I did that. There was money on his head.

“I rock with [Yungeen Ace] and them boys, ATK,” Foolio’s alleged murderer went on. “I be in Jacksonville heavy. If you know, you know. I handled that because Ace had that money on his head, Ace had them put that 10K up. Told me to slide, told me to smack Foolio because he got tired of that n***a running his mouth, playing all the time, you feel me? It is what it is, bruh. A n***a don’t give a f**k. About that money, anybody can get it. Foolio had it coming to him, so I don’t really feel sorry.

“A lot of people feel that it was on some gang s**t,” Yungeen Ace’s alleged affiliate concluded. “It ain’t even really all that. Ace put that bread up and whoever wanted to take it, took it, so I took that. Rest in peace, Foolio.”
