Coi Leray has been informing fans on some changes she may make soon. She tweeted about changing her name to just “Coi” which was also the title of her album that dropped last year. Coi under-performed commercially so it’s no surprise that she may also be making some changes to her artistry as well.

Earlier today she tweeted about her fans being too obsessed with “baby Coi.” She asked for the space and opportunity to grow and mature as an artist. She only has two projects under her belt so far but has a couple major hits under her belt like “Players” and “Baby Don’t Hurt Me.” Both songs have over 450k streams on Spotify. What do you think of Coi Leray showing off her dance moves from weekend two of Coachella? Are you looking forward to her dropping a new album? Let us know in the comment section below.

April 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fans of Childish Gambino have gotten some major good news recently. Most of it has come through his GIGLA radio series of which there’s been two episodes so far. In the newest episode he debuts a new song with Kanye West, or at least one made to sound like it’s with Kanye. Gambino has been using AI for various parts of the radio broadcasts and it has fans second guessing everything. Those listening couldn’t help but wonder if the verse West contributed was actually him or generated by a computer.

Now Childish Gambino seems to have begun teasing an upcoming world tour. Fittingly it’s called “The New World Tour” and the post includes a website of the same name where fans can sign-up for information on the tour. Gambino is fresh off an appearance during Tyler, The Creator’s Coachella headlining set that reminded everyone just how exciting of a live performer he is. There’s no information on what cities the tour may stop in or when it will get underway yet. But that hasn’t stopped fans from getting excited to potentially see him live. Check out the announcement he shared below.

During the first episode of his new radio show, Childish Gambino revealed he has two forthcoming albums. The first is called Atavista and will serve as an updated version of his 2020 release 3.15.20. He’s also reportedly dropping an album called Bando Stone & the New World after that. The project will also serve as the soundtrack for a show of the same name that he’s also involved with.

As exciting as it was for fans to hear the announcement, there was also bad news. He confirmed that the new albums would be his last two releases under the Childish Gambino moniker. Despite that, nothing is stopping him from releasing music under his own name going forward. What do you think of Childish Gambino announcing that he’s going on a world tour soon? Do you plan on seeing him at one of his upcoming tour stops? Let us know in the comment section below.

Who Is 310Babii? Learn About The ‘Soak City (Do It)’ Rapper

April 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

On the latest edition of the Billboard Hot 100 chart released today, “Soak City (Do It),” by Inglewood rapper 310Babii moved up five positions to land at No. 71 in its 17th week on the chart. It’s an impressive showing for the Nights And Weekends rapper, who has become increasingly well-known thanks to his collaborations with rappers like Luh Tyler and Kalan.FrFr. So, who is 310Babii and why is he on the verge of blowing up at just 17 years old?

As he told XXL‘s “The Break” back in November, the sudden success of “Soak City” wasn’t something he planned, but it was something he worked for. The teen, who was a fan of Chief Keef, began rapping in seventh grade, recording songs on his phone via BandLab. He continued recording consistently until June of last year (his senior year of high school), when his classmates helped the then-brand new “Soak City” go viral with a TikTok challenge that launched it into the stratosphere, where it caught the notice of NFL stars like Travis Kelce and Rashid Shaheed. 310Babii capitalized with the release of his debut mixtape, Lottery Pick, and a remix of the song featuring fellow Los Angeles breakouts “Soak City” featuring BlueBucksClan, Blueface, OhGeesy, and Tyga.

This past weekend saw the culmination of his rise to date as he joined Blxst onstage to perform the song during the “Chosen” rapper’s Coachella set. He’s now in contention for XXL‘s 2024 Freshman class, with a gold record to his name.

Cam’ron says that Chris Brown released the best diss song of the week with his track, “Weakest Link,” which targets Quavo. He discussed his reaction to the song in a video on his Instagram Story on Sunday. He gave it the nod over Drake’s “Taylor Made Freestyle” and Kanye West’s “Like That Remix.”

“To me, Chris Brown got the best diss song this week,” Cam said. “Chris Brown and Quavo beef? It gotta be over a b*tch.” From there, he played a portion of the song and remarked: “That n***a said that when Takeoff died, n****s wished it was you instead. Chris Brown sound dangerous! Breezy sound dangerous right now!” Cam isn’t the only rapper to praise Brown for the diss track. Over the weekend, 50 Cent also remarked that “it’s a wrap” for Quavo at this point. “Oh my God i just heard this, if Quavo don’t come with some heat it’s a wrap. First the Fatboys break up now this!” he wrote on Instagram. DJ Akademiks and Adin Ross were both also blown away by the song.

Chris Brown Comes After Quavo On “Weakest Link”

On “Weakest Link,” Brown raps: “You the weakest link out of your clique, let’s keep it a hundo, n***a. You f*cked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no f*ck, lil’ n***a. ‘Cause I f*cked your ex when you were still with her, b*tch, I’m up, lil’ n***a.” Later in the song, he also praises the late Migos rapper Takeoff, but adds: “Crazy how when he died, everybody really wished it was you instead.,” while referring to Quavo.

“Like That” Remix By Kanye West Taken Off YouTube By Sony

April 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West recently entered the “elimination of Drake” with his remix of “Like That.” Metro Boomin made a darker and more anthemic beat and Future even recorded a new verse. It was officially premiered on Justin Laboy’s podcast The Download this past weekend after Adam22 leaked it on April 20. The track went viral for bars like, “Y’all so out of sight, out of mind / I can’t even think of a Drake line / Play J. Cole, get the p***y dry.” Ye released the track on his YouTube page, as well as his website yeezy.com. However, Sony is not having it any of it, as the “Like That” remix is now off of YouTube.

RapTV was one of the first to report the news on their Instagram account by sharing a screenshot of the unplayable track. As of now, only the audio from Kanye West’s account on the video platform is down. When you click on the video, it reads, “This video contains content from SME, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds.” This may not be too much of a surprise to some as Sony and UMG had Ye under contract and then removed him from the payroll after voicing their distaste for his antisemitic statements.

Sony Continues To Butt Heads With Kanye West

A post shared by RapTV (@rap)

Kanye has been sharing his disdain for major labels and it has been part of the reason why he recently began another beef installment with Drake. During the Laboy interview he stated, “Drake has a rich baby daddy, named Lucian [Grainge] and Universal. “He’s like, ‘My daddy got it. My daddy control the spins. My daddy got the DSPs.’ Drake has a rich baby daddy named Lucian.”

What are your thoughts on the “Like That” remix by Kanye best being taken down by Sony? Do you think this removal stems from them speaking against Ye’s antisemitic statements, why or why not? How do you see the controversial rapper handling this down the road? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

T-Pain Shares A Warning For The Hit-&-Run Culprit Who Smashed His Car

April 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

T-Pain was rear-ended in a hit-and-run accident near Atlanta on Sunday and documented the aftermath of the incident in a video on his Instagram page. He says the unknown driver smashed into his vehicle while he was headed home from the airport.

“Times is hard out here, man,” he said. “Whoever just f*ckin’ ran into the back of my goddamn truck, man, whoever just hit me, my wife, my road manager… whoever just did that sh*t and drove off? My n***a. Life’s about to get so much worse. First of all, n***a: you left the whole goddamn front of your truck, so we know what we’re looking for now. You left your f*ckin’ baby toy. So, we know you got kids. Look, I know times is hard. And I know things is rough out there. But I tell you what: sh*t is going too great for me to not make me want revenge right now.”

Despite the accident, T-Pain appeared to be in good spirits, returning to the comments section of his post with jokes. “Ppl that are saying my neck and back gonna hurt tomorrow are really underestimating how much my neck and back was already hurting from just being old. Also we’re in Atlanta a mile away from making it home from the airport. It was a ~2003-2007 silver Chevy SUV that probably looks like they hit something super hard and missing the grill.”

April 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Every week, Billboard unveils the top 10 songs on the latest Hot 100 chart. The most recent rankings, for the chart dated April 27, are out now, so let’s run down who had this week’s biggest hits.

10. SZA — “Saturn”

SZA finds herself re-entering the top 10 this week as “Saturn” gets a bump up from No. 15 all the way to No. 10.

9. Noah Kahan — “Stick Season”

Kahan just got a new personal best, as “Stick Season,” after spending last week at No. 10, climbs up to a new high of No. 9 this week.

8. Ariana Grande — “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait For Your Love)”

What Grande can be friends with is the top 10 as “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait For You Love)” maintains its No. 8 spot from last week.

7. Sabrina Carpenter — “Espresso”

Congratulations are in order for Carpenter, who has her first top-10 single of her career with “Espresso.” Also of note is that “Feather,” which was Carpenter’s first top-40 hit, hits a new high on this week’s chart at No. 21.

6. Jack Harlow — “Lovin On Me”

“Lovin On Me” has become a top-10 mainstay in recent months and even after all this time, it’s still only just outside the top 5.

5. Beyoncé — “Texas Hold ‘Em”

After hanging out at No. 6 last week, “Texas Hold ‘Em” returns to the top 5 at it leads the Hot Country Songs chart for a 10th week.

4. Teddy Swims — “Lose Control”

Swims’ breakout hit is still doing well for the song as it maintains control at No. 4.

3. Benson Boone — “Beautiful Things”

The same is true for Boone, who hasn’t yet managed to get to No. 1 but it still doing great at No. 3 this week.

2. Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar — “Like That”

“Like That” was No. 1 for its first three weeks on the Hot 100, but the time has come for that streak to end, because there’s a new champion on the latest chart.

1. Hozier — “Too Sweet”

For a long while, it seemed that 2013’s “Take Me To Church” would make Hozier a one-hit wonder, as it was his only single to chart in the top 10 (in the top 35, even), peaking at No. 2. Now, though, it’s no longer the biggest chart success of his career, as “Too Sweet” just became his first No. 1 single. It’s also the first chart-topper by an Irish artist in decades, since Sinéad O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U” in 1990.

This week’s #Hot100 top 10 (chart dated April 27, 2024).
