Conway The Machine Recruits Dua Lipa For New Album Hype Video

by

Conway The Machine is always cooking up something for his fans. He has a new album called SFK dropping tonight and he’s spent all week building up hype for it. That hype hit its peak with a new video he shared to social media assisted by a pretty surprising guest. Unsurprisingly the upcoming album sports an absolutely packed feature list and continues a years prolific streak for the Griselda crew. Just a few months ago Benny The Butcher finally dropped his often-teased album Everybody Can’t Go.

The video Conway shared features numerous clips of him performing, working on new music, and hanging out behind the scenes. One notable moment sees him meeting pop hitmaker Dua Lipa. The singer just released her new album Radical Optimism, her first since 2020’s Future Nostalgia. Last year she had a smash hit with the song “Dance The Night” from the Barbie film soundtrack. It’s unclear how she ended up in the video or if her presence will hype up many Conway fans, but its an interesting crossover regardless. “I really did it this time!!! I f*cking did it!! 🙌🏾. I’m iller than all these n*ggas! I can’t wait for y’all to hear this new sh*t!! SFK FRIDAY” Conway’s caption reads. Check out the full video he shared below.

Conway The Machine’s Album Hype Trailer

Conway has already released a few songs from the record. Earlier this month he dropped “Ten/Rya Interlude” which features Key Glock and Rya Maxwell. The trio assembled a full 6-minute song, long by rap standards and even longer by single standards. That was preceded by the Joey Badass-assisted “Vertino” which became an instant fan favorite. The track has since racked up more than 1.5 million streams on Spotify alone.

What do you think of Conway The Machine recruiting a guest appearance from Dua Lipa to hype up his new album? Are you looking forward to hearing SFK when it drops later tonight? Let us know in the comment section below.

4batz Gets Freaky On “Act VI: Mad Man”

by

Ever since 4batz popped up out of nowhere earlier this year, the 20-year-old phenom has become quite the controversial figure. He has been quickly labeled as an industry plant ever since his “act ii: date @ 8” was pushed on social media. Ever since music listeners thrust this designation at him, he has embraced it with open arms. He told GQ,” “I think it’s kind of cool, It’s like I’m the boogeyman. People are going to meet me and be like, Oh, this is a regular hood n****.”

Kanye West, who hopped on a remix of “act iii,” even told him that more and more people are going to pile on him going forward. “‘Get used to it, because you here now. People are going to look at you like a walking ATM, but you’re going to see through that. You know what I’m saying? Because you a star.’” We feel 4batz is well on his way to that new title, especially with tracks like “act vi: mad man.”

On this cut, the Dallas, Texas vocalist is showing us his freakier and freer side, he asks his woman to be as much of an intimate lover as he is. “My baby like to play around for hours / F*** that, turn around, girl, let’s get nasty,” he says on the first verse. We have really been enjoying his debut tape u made me a st4r, and fans are seemingly sharing the same opinion. You can check out “act vi,” as well as a brand-new short film for the project above.

Never thought ’bout babies till I met you
The way you ridin’ me, we might just have some
Touch you up and eat you down for breakfast
The way we movin’ now, might need a napkin
My baby so damn pretty like a flower
I can’t wait to see your fine a** blossom

Gunna Reveals Tracklist And Features For “One Of Wun”

by

Gunna is dropping a new project on Friday called One Of Wun. If you have been paying attention to Gunna and his career, you know that it has been hard from him ever since coming home from jail. Overall, a lot of his former collaborators see him as a snitch. Young Thug remains on trial, while Gunna is home free. This has consequently led to a narrative that has mostly been disproven, at least for now. On his last album a gift & a curse, Wunna was not able to secure a feature. However, it seems like some have come around on him.

For instance, today, Gunna revealed a 20-song tracklist for his new album. Carrying a 20-song album all by yourself would be a Herculean task. While the artist is going to be carrying the heaviest load here, there are some features throughout the project. For instance, we will be getting Normani, Leon Bridges, Offset, and Roddy Ricch. This is an interesting crop of artists as there is a mixture of R&B and rap here. We have already heard the song with Offset, but it will be interesting to see what the other features bring to the table here.

Meanwhile, fans are eager to see whether or not Gunna will be able to compete with Future here. As we reported, Future is dropping a mixtape on the same day. The two even threw some subs at each other on Twitter during the early hours of the morning. If one thing is for certain here, it is that we are in for a very interesting weekend of music.

Let us know your expectations for this new project, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that this project is going to be able to live up to the hype? What are your thoughts on the features that have been revealed for this project? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

21 Lil Harold Drops Off So-So Mini Tape “Sick Of Myself”

by

At times, hip-hop can grow stale and that is an argument that people online bring up. It can be a valid one at times, especially after the down year that was 2023. Some rappers, like Lil Yachty for example, have even publicly spoken up about the concern they have for its future. Thankfully, 2024 has been a return to form. However, there are going to be a couple of releases that come across as plain and forgettable. Unfortunately, those are the feelings we have about a fair share about Sick of Myself by 21 Lil Harold.

This is the Atlanta, Georgia native’s follow-up to his debut album After The Curse, which dropped back in January 2023. 21 Lil Harold, for those who do not know, is one of 21 Savage’s closest friends. Additionally, he had a huge hand in creating the Slaughter Gang Entertainment label. Because of his tight-knit ties to Savage, him, along with JID and Nardo Wick, will be going on tour together this summer for The American Dream Tour.

Listen To Sick Of Myself By 21 Lil Harold

In fact, the North American tour kicks off tomorrow in Concord, California at the Toyota Pavilion. So, Sick of Myself comes at a perfect time as now he will have some new material to play when opens. The promotional singles, “Sundown” and “Gin & Juice,” were pretty great. However, the same cannot really be said about the rest. The solo cuts all sound the same lyrically (sex and spending money on women). Like Savage’s recent work, Harold does little to switch up his flows or his approach to a track. The beats are solid, but they carry the project for the most part, sadly. However, we still recommend you at least give the tape a try, so click the links above to do so.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new album Sick of Myself by 21 Lil Harold? Where do you rank this project amongst the rest of his discography? Or did this offering disappoint you? Who had the best feature and why? What songs are you gravitating toward the most and why? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Bear1Boss. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Sick of Myself Tracklist:

  1. Too Many
  2. Brand New
  3. Pipe Dreams
  4. Sundown (feat. JID)
  5. Baby Boy
  6. One in the Head with Quavo, G Herbo
  7. Ging & Juice (feat. BugXthaPlug)
  8. Robbery

Slum Village, Earlly Mac, & Cordae Are “So Superb” Together

by

Detroit rap group Slum Village deserves a lot of credit for still going strong all these later. We say this because after 9 long years without a new album, they have made quite a triumphant return. This past weekend, they came through with an exhilarating fusion of jazz, disco, and rap called F.U.N. Of course, the late great J Dilla is not around for this incredible release, but just know that he would be thrilled to be a part of this. T3 and rapper/producer Young RJ did an incredible job with this offering, and it is going to remain in rotation throughout the year for us.

In the press release, T3 explained where the inspiration for this project stemmed from. “[It] began with collecting old Disco records.” Additionally, RJ felt like some sort of reset was in order. “[We] wanted to just try something new, so we focused on making Disco-inspired music.” One of the songs that we feel capitalized on that very well is “So Superb.”

Be sure to check out the track with the link above.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song “So Superb” by Slum Village, Earlly Mac, and Cordae? Where do you rank this record amongst the rest of them and why?

Cardi B clapped back at a fan on Twitter in a pair of since-deleted posts after the user demanded she release her long-awaited sophomore album. In a post on the platform, the user wrote: “Cardi if that album doesn’t come before summer you better just stay off this app because if so I personally will make sure every edgy bg post is PLASTERED into the top of every single refresh you pull, YOU.” The Invasion of Privacy rapper responded: “B*tch its 7am… STFU.”

Cardi has confirmed her intent to release her second album at some point this year on multiple occasions. During a live stream on Instagram, earlier this year, she claimed she won’t let her anxiety about dropping get the better of her. “Look at how long I had this f***ing record for,” Cardi B said at the time. “January 27, twenty-twenty-f***ing-three. I was working on this s**t at 5AM, you know I’m a night owl. I promise y’all this year, I’m not letting my anxiety, I’m not letting what haters say, I’m not letting what fans say… If I do a song, I’ma just f***ing drop it. Well, I got no choice, ’cause I’m dropping my album this year, so… Stay tuned for the announcement, but don’t play with me! Don’t play with me!

Future & Gunna Subliminally Go Back & Forth On Twitter As They Are Set To Drop Projects On The Same Day

by

Future and Gunna are two artists who don’t see eye to eye like they used to. Overall, this is due to the fact that Young Thug remains in jail and on trial, while Gunna is a free man. When Gunna and Young Thug were arrested together as part of the YSL Rico case, many were curious as to how things would play out. When Gunna was released from custody, many felt like it was because he must have snitched on Thugger. Although Gunna has denied this to be the case, many artists in hip-hop have effectively blackballed him.

On Friday, Gunna is set to drop off his new album One Of Wun. Fans are excited about this new album, and understandably so. However, last night, Future seemingly cut off his momentum by revealing that he would drop a mixtape on Friday. Consequently, this means these two are about to go head-to-head on the charts. Additionally, the two appeared to take subliminal shots at one another on Twitter. It all started when Future said “Fuck yo album shit ain’t slappin like my MIXTAPE.”

Future Vs. Gunna On Friday

Subsequently, Gunna went to Twitter and wrote “fuc what these boys talking bout.” Needless to say, these two are going to be looking to one-up each other with these projects. It is definitely going to be a close one, and allegiances are already made. Fans will have their minds made up before a single song is even released. Regardless, 2024 has been the year of rap beef, and that does not seem to be changing, anytime soon.

Let us know which of these two projects will be getting your first listen on Friday, in the comments section down below. Who do you think is going to come out with the better project? Will it be a bad look for Future and Gunna’s detractors if One Of Wun proves to be the superior project? 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.

Mach-Hommy Announces New Album After Collaborating With Kaytranada For New Song, “#RichAxxHaitian”

by

Mach-Hommy has shared the title track from his upcoming album, #RichAxxHaitian, which he’ll be dropping later this month ahead of Haitian Flag Day. For the song, he teams up with Kaytranada and 03 Greedo. In a press release sharing the news with HipHopDX, Mach discussed the collaborators he chose to work with for the project.

“All the people I worked with are people who I know and who I’ve worked with before,” Mach said. “I like to deal with like-minded creatives. Even if the person has their own panache or je nais se quoi that they bring to the table, there has to be a thread of commonality between us in order for the work to sustain. And not to mention they’re fucking talented, exceptionally gifted at what they do, and the ear that they possess.” Other rappers to land features on the tracklist include Black Thought, Roc Marciano, Your Old Droog, Tha God Fahim, HEPHZIBAH, Big Cheeko, and more. For production, he also teamed up with Conductor Williams, Quelle Chris, and Sadhu Gold, among others.

Mach-Hommy also says the new album is the final installment in a “tetralogy,” which began with his outstanding 2016 effort, HBO (Haitian Body Odor), and also features his 2021 projects, Pray for Haiti and Balens Cho (Hot Candles). According to Pitchfork, he explained: “I’ve always wanted to rep for Haiti and the cultural and intellectual richness we’ve provided the world. From our musical styles like kontradans that have influenced world music, our natural resources which provide so much raw material for so many important advancements in technology, our thinkers that pioneered philosophical movements and Black pride, and our spiritual leaders who kept the religious traditions of Guinea alive and intact, the religious traditions of Ayiti….”

#RichAxxHaitian will be releasing on Friday, May 17. Be on the lookout for further updates on Mach-Hommy on HotNewHipHop.

Bear1Boss Brings A More Cohesive Take On His Avant-Garde Sound With “Bubbles”

by

When you think of Buffalo, New York, most would think of blue-collar people, and working for what you want. The city’s grit is evident in a lot of rappers’ music. Benny The Butcher, Conway the Machine, and Westside Gunn are just handful that embody that same energy. However, Bear1Boss is someone who totally goes against the grain. His colorful, zany, and niche sound is something that would originate somewhere out West or in some obscure city. He definitely does not color within the lines when it comes to putting together projects. That was apparent on his most recent effort SUPER BOSS!

It just sounded really rough around the edges, and it felt like something that could have dropped during the mixtape era. The random video game samples and wacky sound effects could come across as endearing to some. But for us, it was a tough listen from beginning to end. So, with Bear1Boss following up that February release with Bubbles our expectations for it being enjoyable were low.

Listen To Bubbles By Bear1Boss

Thankfully, we were pleasantly surprised by Bear1Boss on this effort. Bubbles comes across as more polished and cohesive. Hardcore fans who enjoy his intentional unfinished style may not like the cleaner approach. In our eyes though, Bear1Boss still put together some interesting hyperpop and pop rap beats without trying too hard to be goofy. His voice and flows suffice, and the listening experience was much improved this time around.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new album Bubbles by Bear1Boss? Is this one of his stronger efforts as of late, why or why not? Who had the better feature? What songs are you gravitating toward the most and why? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Bear1Boss. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Bubbles Tracklist:

  1. Cannonball
  2. Unbearable
  3. Protect Scuffle
  4. Throwrocks!
  5. Hella Money
  6. Louder
  7. I am not a pimp
  8. Theme Song
  9. Positive Vibes with Burmuda Yae
  10. Sauce Walker with KEY!
  11. Important
