Bas Is Stranded In The Desert In New Visuals For “Dr. O’blivion”

by

Sudanese rapper and singer Bas’ new album We Only Talk About Real S*** When We’re F****d Up is continuing its torrent run. It is still doing well because we are here to talk about it once more. This project is a lot of fun to listen to, dissect, and just vibe out with. Bas delivered a multitude of atmospheres and topical focus. It makes it arguably his best full body of work in his rock solid career.

Over the past week and a half or so, we have touched on some of our personal favorites from the LP. “Black Jedi,” “Risk,” and “Decent” were the ones that stood out at HNHH. However, you also have heavy-hitting collaborations with J. Cole. Bas not only had Cole perform on the mic, but also behind the keyboard. He had a hand in the deeper cut “Dr. O’blivion.”

X4’s “Call My Bluff” Is A Peek Behind The Curtain Of What We Can Expect From Him

by

A couple of days ago we highlighted a new artist that has been gaining some buzz. This young buck hails from the West Coast. More specifically, he calls Los Angeles, California home. His name is X4 and he recently dropped his debut project.

The Most Important features a tight nine-song tracklist. Guest appearances include Remble, a frequent collaborator of his, Lil Vada, TruCarr, and 03 Greedo. With him being from Cali, X4 has embraced that familiar West Coast sound that features gangsta rap and bouncy tunes. He has a deep and fairly monotone delivery, however, it has a swagger to it.

Listen To “Call My Bluff” By X4

The lead single “Call My Bluff” is what we believe to be a good introductory song for him. It has violent lyrics like, “Catch him at night, at that light, like Tupac, we gon’ hit him up (Fah-fah-fah) / We stripped him for his s***, now is time to split the chilly up.” FBEAT, who produces every song on the project, delivers a spacey and almost futuristic vibe. X4 brings some solid flows and a catchy hook to the table as well. Give the track a spin above.

If we had to compare him to another artist from the area, Tyga might be the best one. X4 possesses a smooth and cool delivery like Tyga. His beats are fairly similar as well. The best tracks in our opinion include “Call My Bluff” and “Rich S***” with Lil Vada. “Call My Bluff” was the lone and lead single to the tape. Before this, he released a trio of EPs and even had a freestyle on The Corner Store LA’s Instagram.

Layzie Bone’s “Intro” To “Hypnotic Rhythms” Is The Perfect Segway

by

The Bone-Thugs-N-Harmony group has been active this year even with the difficulties that one of their members faced. Krayzie Bone put himself into a hospital in Los Angeles after he was battling some potentially fatal personal health issues. The Cleveland rapper was dealing with a leaking lung artery and was viciously coughing up blood. It was truly a scary moment for him, the fans, and of course his closest friends. Layzie Bone himself shared a deep message to the people reaching out for support of their bandmate.

“In this challenging moment, as the immediate and Bone thugs family rallies behind my brother, we humbly ask for a moment of privacy. Our family is facing the unexpected hospitalization of Krayzie Bone with strength, and your prayers are a beacon of hope.” Layzie goes on, “Soon, we’ll share an update, but for now, let us come together and keep our love and thoughts focused on his recovery. Your support means the world to us, and we truly appreciate your understanding during this time.”

Listen To “Intro” By Layzie Bone

Now, that they are beginning to move on from that, Layzie has decided to release an album before the end of the year. Hypnotic Rhythms dropped this past weekend and it heavily focuses on Layzie’s ability to spit with different cadences. We feel that the “Intro” track does a great job of introducing this to listeners. The melody is also on point with deep piano keys. Layzie showcases the perfect flow to match it and sets up the tape perfectly.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new song, “Intro,” by Layzie Bone? Is this the best track from Hypnotic Rhythms? Do you think Layzie is the best Bone-Thugs-N-Harmony member in the group, why or why not? Out of all of the collective’s releases this year, is this the highest-quality project?

Troy Ave Pairs A Banging Beat With A Gorgeous Sample On “Roberta Flack”

by

One of New York’s many rappers, Troy Ave, recently carried on his lengthy album series, White Christmas. It is a collection of LPs in which its first release dates back to Christmas of 2012. There is not a lot about these projects that relates to the widely celebrated holiday, outside of some song titles and album covers. Nonetheless, it is Troy’s halo series and one that fans are still enjoying to this day. He is now up to the 11th entry and it was put out on streaming platforms just this past Friday (December 22).

This newest iteration features a lot of solid tracks. The production is vast and even sees Troy dip into his singing bag. However, he sounds quite awkward on it, even though it is one of the more personal songs on the record. Besides that, there are not a lot of lulls in the tracklist. The first half is especially strong.

Listen To “Roberta F; ” By Troy Ave

One song in the first fourth of the project that is worth talking about is “Roberta Flack.” The title is a reference to a retired soul singer who had plenty of number-one hits. There is not a lot of info on this album, but Troy could have possibly sampled some of her vocals for this cut. It is arguably what makes the song so fun as the vocals are extremely soulful and have that iconic Chipmunk treatment. See what we are talking about and check it out above.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new song, “Roberta Flack,” by Troy Ave? Is this the best track from White Christmas 11, why or why not? If not, what cut what you put above it?

Maino’s “K.O.B. Intro” Will Have You Wanting To Run Through A Brick Wall

by

One of the best qualities about Brooklyn, New York rapper Maino is his ability to effortlessly craft inspirational bangers. He has been floating in between the mainstream and underground scene for nearly his entire career. But, it has been something that does not seem to bother Maino. The MC has stabilized over a decade-long run because of that unwavering commitment. Maino’s 2023 is one of a steady release of singles and an album. One of his biggest moments was rekindling with the recently released B.G. Together they worked on a different version of “For My City.”

It was a great collaboration that had an uplifting feeling. But, we should not be surprised by that since that is what Maino does best. He provided a lot of those vibes on his record for this year, K.O.B. 4. It is the fourth entry into the series, which saw a flurry of releases in the late 2010s.

Listen To “K.O.B. Intro” By Maino

One of the best tracks to check out from the tape is the “K.O.B. Intro.” It was released over a year ago with a YouTube music video. However, we were not able to give it the proper shine. It kicks off with Maino rapping over piano keys before sirens start to go off. When you hear those you start to get hype. Shortly thereafter, the beat drops and you are met with a steady dose of kick drums and effortless flows. You will be ready to tackle anything after hearing this.

What are your initial thoughts on this song, “K.O.B. Intro,” by Maino? Is this the best song from K.O.B. 4, why or why not? If not, which song is better and why? Is this the best album within the K.O.B. series? Is this one of Maino’s best intro tracks of all time? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around Maino.

Bun B, Benny The Butcher, And Rome Streetz Trade Great Verses Over Statik Selekah Beat On “Trillselda”

by

Bun B and Statik Selektah’s legacies are firmly entrenched within hip-hop lore. Each of them do different things, but each have already left a lasting impact on the genre. It is arguable that Bun’s rapping and Statik’s beats are on equal playing field in terms of quality and influence. Combine them together and you have a truly great duo on your hands.

Well, that is exactly what they have done. The Houston artist and the Boston producer have just come through with their third project. It is a part of their Trillstatik series. It dates back to 2019 and each one has provided a stellar feature list. Trillstatik 3 is only available on bandcamp.com and there is no signs that this will make an appearance on DSPs.

One track we want to highlight from this tape is “Trillseda.” Bun and Statik grab Benny The Butcher and Rome Streetz. Both have been dropping quality material throughout 2023. The Buffalo product is gearing up for his highly-hyped 2024 record, Everybody Can’t Go. All four components do very well here, with the beat being one of the more subdued to allow for the lyrics and cadences to shine. You can check out the track and album above.

Propain Perfects The Southern Flavor Recipe On “Made From Scratch”

by

Southern hip-hop is one of the top-tier subsets of hip-hop. Artists can do so much with the sounds to make it unique to themselves unlike a few subgenres. Propain is doing just that, by combining a various amount of styles on his latest record. We have not covered a ton of Propain, so here is a quick rundown on him.

He hails from Houston, Texas and has been in the game since the beginning of the 2010s decade. That is when Propain put out his first tape, P.I.M.P. (Hosted By Aayliah Maria & DJ Gutta). If you are looking to compare him to others from the region of the U.S., he has some similarities to Slim Thug, Bun B, and Scarface. But, he makes personal music that manages to sound different from them.

Troy Ave Puts Some Great Gifts Under The Tree On “White Christmas 11”

by

Troy Ave, veteran rapper from Brooklyn, New York, has been in the headlines for a lot of beefing and trolling. One of the major stories from earlier this year came when Taxstone, a former rapper, got handed down a vicious 35-year prison sentence. It was a shooting that went down in 2016 that involved Troy’s bodyguard. Taxstone tried to plead his case that the defendant instigated him into it, but to no avail.

There are plenty of other revolving doors we could walk through, but today, we wanted to talk about a new album. Troy Ave is back for the fourth time with a new album. His first LP came out back in April with Richer Than My Haters. This time, the MC is continuing a holiday tradition of his.
