D4VD Quickly Follows Up His First EP With “The Lost Petals”

Billie Eilish is clearly the most well-known artist that is with Darkroom right now. However, that might not be for too much longer because d4vd is coming in hot. The indie rock and R&B artist is making massive waves already with his unique and somber voice. So much so, that his most popular song, “Here With Me,” is already up to over 700 million plus streams! To put that in perspective the song is off of his first-ever EP, Petals to Thorns, which was released on May 26, 2023. That is only three and a half months roughly of the song being out.

It is an incredible feat for the 18-year-old to say the least and he is only going up from here. Just recently, R&B global phenom SZA added the youngster to the second leg of her SOS tour which is winning fans over. D4VD shared his uncontrollable excitement on the matter. “TRYING NOT TO PANIC @sza THANK U FOR HAVING ME ON TOURRRR 🛟 I cannot believe my eyes right now this is going to be INSANE.”

Smoke DZA And Flying Lotus Might Have An EP Of The Year Contender With “Flying Objects”

Smoke DZA and Flying Lotus are truly a match made in heaven. The duo has just released their first collaborative project together with their brand new EP. Flying Objects is one of the best, if not the best EPs of 2023 and we are about to break down why. Firstly though, let us give you the basic information and some background on it. Flying Objects is five tracks that equal a runtime of 14 minutes and 14 seconds. DZA brings on features from some heavy hitters in this quick effort. Conway the Machine, Black Thought, and Estelle appear in songs two, four, and five.

Furthermore, all of the production is handled by legendary Los Angeles producer, Flying Lotus. He brings elements of trap, cloud rap, boom-bap, and R&B. Finally, there were two singles for the promotion of this EP. “Drug Trade” with Black Thought and “Harlem World 97” with Estelle were both released in the past two months. Now, why is this EP so good? Well, both DZA and Lotus complement each other’s styles so well. The hazy, laid-back, and euphoric production along with the lyrics about dope, money, and being the man, is the perfect unison.

Perhaps the best song on the EP, “Drug Trade” featuring Black Thought, has it all.

The Sixtape series is known for its earworm hooks and effortless flows over trap and R&B beats. That trend continues here in the third installment. Blxst and Bino Rideaux make it look easy, especially on songs like “Doin Yo Stuff.” It is the ultimate love-making song with bouncy West Coast influence in its production and auto-tune-laced vocals.

The R&B hits continue on the following track “Get Away.” It is another love cut but this one possesses more emotional weight that shows both artists missing their partners. Their love for them is so strong that it is hard to function when they are not around.

LAYA Returns With Enticing 7-Track EP “Bet That”

LAYA is an artist who has been on the rise over these past couple of years. Back in 2021, she gave us her Um, Hello EP which had a feature from New York superstar Fivio Foreign. From there, she went viral with a couple of singles such as “Sailor Moon 2.0” and “Need 2 Know.” With these tracks, the artist has been able to show tremendous range as she delves into various genres with ease. It’s clear she can do it all, whether that entails rapped passages or some incredibly sung vocals.

Fans have been waiting for her next move, and on Friday, she blessed those supporters with a seven-track EP called “Bet That.” This short but sweet EP provides fans with a glimpse of the various genres she operates within. For instance, on the opening track “Bet That,” we get some incredible guitar work that crescendos into a full-blown solo at the end. In the midst of this, LAYA makes her presence felt all throughout the track, ultimately setting the tone for the rest of the EP.

Songs like “F’d Up” and “Psycho Bitch” are further examples of what LAYA is able to do. On the latter, we get these funky basslines all while the artist gives us these psychedelic vocal lines that feel like you’re on some sort of acid trip. Its an experimental cut that makes us want the artist to give us a full-length psych-rock experience. If you are not familiar with the singer, than this album is a great way to build some familiarity. Hopefully, a full album is on the horizon.

Let us know what you think of this new project from LAYA, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world. We will always bring you the biggest releases from the biggest artists in the entire world.

Coi Leray Takes Shots At Latto And Trippie Redd On Her “Blue Moon” EP

Coi Leray might be feeling herself, but she deserves it. Hot off the release of her brand new EP Blue Moon on August 30, the Boston, Massachusetts-born rapper talks a lot about her career. After a disappointing response from fans and critics on her last album, she wanted to stick to her guns and put out material she excels with. “The EP, I get deep, I get vulnerable. I got tired of “trying” new things and wanted to just do what I do BEST.” You can check out more information on the project here.

Now that the EP is here, fans and listeners are taking the time to look more into the lyrical content. Sure enough, people are starting to notice there are some shots being sent towards a few artists in particular. The most glaring one is Latto, who took a figurative body shot at Leray on her popular track “Put It On Da Floor.” Latto raps, “Smoking on that gas blunt big as Coi Leray / Bitches like to run they mouth, but I’m the type to run a fade.” Coi did not take that diss lightly responding, “Please do not come on here and talk about nobody BODY. Lol like seriously . Out of all things . Lmaooo ya blunt my size ? Lmaooo this s*** is never ending. These b*****s wanna be like the n***** so bad.”

Take A Listen To Coi Leray’s “Isabel Marant:”

Trippie Redd was also caught in the crossfire, as he used to date Coi Leray. The bar that has people talking is on the song “Isabel Marant.” She raps, “Yeah, I’m on they a** / Hop out on that couch and roll up Latto out the bag / I don’t need a stylist, they can’t f*** with Coi Leray / Try to count me out and now I’m big as Trippie Redd.” It is certainly a diss towards the two rappers. More beef could be coming down the pipeline, so stay tuned.

What are your initial thoughts on the song “Isabel Marant” by Coi Leray? Did you catch the shots at Trippie Redd and Latto on the first listen? Why do you think she fired back at Latto?

Coi Leray Drops Her New EP “Blue Moon”

Coi Leray’s brand new EP Blue Moon is finally out on all streaming platforms. The project is just over 11 minutes long with five tracks and no features. A few days ago the star rapper and singer shared the meaning behind this quick effort. Her second album was not as well received as she might have hoped, so she decided to do what she does best. Coi Leray says, “The EP, I get deep, I get vulnerable. I got tired of “trying” new things and wanted to just do what I do BEST.”

She goes further saying, “I have a hard time with telling my story because I get wrapped up in the media narratives however Music is the best way for me to tell it. Sorry I can’t argue with y’all on the internet all day.” Things are definitely getting a little more personal this time and it shows on these five tracks. That feeling hits you like a ton of bricks right from the start with “Liquor and Weed.” The beat is very minimalistic with spacy drums, allowing to make way for Coi to spit about all of her internal thoughts on her career and the pain and struggle she has had to endure to get to where she is.

Coi Leray’s EP “Blue Moon” Listen:

“It’s my life, my story, so why not let me tell it? I mean, Who knew I would would walking red carpets and stages with the same icons I listen to growing up.” Coi continues, “I’m just grateful to have come this far.” Those themes carry on throughout the duration of the EP, especially on “Still Dreaming” where she talks about wanting to shoot for the stars to live a fulfilling life every day. Overall it is a solid listen with messages that are sure to resonate with a lot of people. Additionally, Coi Leray dropped Blue Moon on the day the world can view the elusive blue supermoon. It happens when the pattern of days in a year means there are 13 full Moons instead of the usual 12.
