Earl Sweatshirt Drops “Sentry” With MIKE Off The Alchemist Collab Album: Watch

August 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE just dropped off the Alchemist-produced track “Sentry,” the first release off of the Odd Future affiliate and the legendary beatmaker’s upcoming collaborative album Voir Dire. While it didn’t officially hit streaming services or YouTube (and we have no official release date for the project), this new track and music video spread around the Internet and social media. With a release party scheduled for this Friday (August 25), there’s good reason to believe that we’re getting this highly anticipated collab soon. What’s more is that it’s great to see Earl and MIKE collaborate given how much they’ve inspired and drawn from each other’s work.

Moreover, the track (like most of Uncle Al’s production) is a dense, earthy, and haunting sample loop that perfectly fits the MCs’ more laidback demeanor. It’s also phrased and chopped in a very interesting way, as Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE take completely different approaches when it comes to flow. The former tackles it in regular 4/4 time, or at least sounds like it, whereas the latter employs a triplet flow, switching up how “Sentry” hits rhythmically. It may be a stark and minimal soundscape, but it heightens the abstract and personal lyrics at play. Furthermore, these three creatives make a lot out of a little, using unconventional and unique approaches to turn a chop and some bars into so much more.

Meanwhile, in the music video, they simply rap in an empty and coldly lit hallway, but don’t seem disheartened by their circumstances. This often sums up their lyricism: despondent, reflective, and downtrodden; yet always resilient, vivid, and hungry. As he celebrates ten years since his first studio album Doris, Earl is still putting out high-caliber material with remarkable consistency and an emotive punch. If you haven’t heard “Sentry” yet, find it with the link below or watch the video above. Also, stick around on HNHH for more on Earl Sweatshirt, MIKE, The Alchemist, and Voir Dire.

Quotable Lyrics
Had a couple things on my chest,
That’s where the demons would sit,
I took a seat at the head,
It’s time to eat, I need to breach heavy set

Bam Margera Disses “Jackass” Co-Stars In New Music Video

July 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

You may know Bam Margera best for his work on “Jackass,” but apparently he has a burgeoning rap career under his belt. Well, he only rapped to diss his former co-stars, but a verse is still a verse at the end of the day, albeit not the greatest one you’ll ever hear. Moreover, he tapped rappers Cult Shotta and Tanboymiguel for the “Feel Like Bam” single and music video, and it’s quite the doozy. Instrumentally, it falls in line with the current alt-rock and rap fusions that other artists in the mainstream are crafting. Where it really gets spicy are in the lyrics, and even then, most of his disses come through a spoke-word outro at the end.

Furthermore, Bam Margera specifically took shots at Johnny Knoxville, Wee Man, Steve-O, and director Jeff Tremaine. Margera covered a few bases, even though his paint point was to say “F**k them all” and to bash their skating skills. Another bar actually sees him challenging Knoxville to a fight, whereas the only direct and more serious diss on this track had Tremaine as its target. The former “Jackass” star said that the director held them under unfair contracts stating that everyone could get hurt except him.

Bam Margera’s New Music Video

Unfortunately, Bam Margera’s been having a rough time as of late, whether due to his own actions or his struggles. For example, Lamar Odom invited him to rehab, and he got himself into plenty of dangerous situations over the past few years. Despite that, some of his peers read between the lines, and continue to urge him to seek true help. One of these was Steve-O, who posted and then deleted an emotional and pained message to his colleague.

“I brought you on tour with me in hopes that I could get you to see what’s possible for you if you choose recovery,” he wrote. “I’ve tried everything I can. But I can’t force you to get honest and do the work of recovery. I wish you could know how much I’ve hated feeling braced for news of your death, but you’re making it clear that I have no other choice. You’re dying, brother, and it sucks that I can’t do anything to save you.” For more news and the latest updates on Bam Margera, stick around on HNHH.

Lil Durk Pours His Heart Out In Video For “Sad Songs”

May 31, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Lil Durk is currently in the midst of a huge moment right now. Overall, he is one of the biggest artists in hip-hop. He has been able to come through with numerous fantastic albums over the years. However, in the eyes of some, Almost Healed is his best. With this new project, Durk is getting introspective. He speaks about his role in Chicago violence while also delivering bars about his love life. Recently, he went through some stuff with India Royale, and he touches on it on some of the tracks.

One of the songs he does this on is none other than “Sad Songs.” Overall, you can probably tell the subject matter and tone of the effort by the title. With this track, Lil Durk decides to go a bit heavier on the autotune, all while detailing his shortcomings in relationships. Just like the track “Pelle Coat,” this song is getting its very own music video. While it may not feature Alicia Keys, it still has some cinematic elements to it.

Firstly, the start of the video shows a man in a Gillie suit trying to get into a home. He is on a Ring doorbell cam and is pleading with India Royale to take Durk back. Of course, Royale has already done so, however, this all makes for a very funny music video. Although, if you aren’t really tapped into the drama, then you may not actually care for this short skit. From there, Durk can be seen looking at photos and taking on the world alone whilst pouring his heart out.

Overall, it is another solid video that will certainly drum up some hype for the new album. It is on pace to sell about $150K first week, which is very solid for this day and age. Let us know your thoughts on the video, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world.

Tyler, The Creator & A$AP Rocky Spend Time At The Lake In Visual For “WHARF TALK”

March 31, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tyler, The Creator is having himself a very good day right now. Overall, there is a very good reason for that as he just dropped Call Me If You Get Lost: The Estate Sale. This is a deluxe edition of his 2021 album, Call Me If You Get Lost. This brand-new offering from Tyler comes complete with eight new songs. Although, two of these songs, “DOGTOOTH” and “SORRY NOT SORRY” are singles that we have already heard. Either way, fans were very excited about the new slate of tracks from the artist.

These eight songs contain a handful of features. One of those features is from A$AP Rocky on the track “WHARF TALK.” Rocky and Tyler are two artists who work exceptionally well together, so it should come as no surprise that they would bless fans with a new collaboration. Subsequently, this song has immediately become one of the most praised efforts on Tyler’s new deluxe album. Thankfully, the two artists are pairing this track with a set of visuals, that was released today.

Overall, this is the exact kind of music video that one would expect from Tyler, The Creator. Firstly, the video begins with Tyler in an empty green field with gorgeous colors around him. Subsequently, he is transported to a dock near a lake, where he is rapping with Rocky. Consequently, the video finds itself offering up two separate sets of vibes that are both defined by nature. This makes for a visually striking video that suits both of their personalities exceptionally well.

“WHARF TALK” and its resulting visual is yet another example of how Tyler, The Creator has grown as an artist. Hopefully, he gives us something else, very soon. As always, let us know what you think of this music video, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Lil Mosey Celebrates His Freedom With New Single, “Flu Game”

March 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

After being acquitted of his recent rape charges, Lil Mosey is gracing the scene with more music. With his newfound freedom, the Washington-born entertainer is gearing himself back up for a major return by dropping his newest single, “Flu Game.” Not only is Mosey dodging a prison sentence, but he now gets a chance to redeem his honor in the public eye. The clearing of all charges on March 2nd allowed him to feel confident in dropping his latest track on March 17th.

The highly anticipated song was paired with the release of a music video. In it, Lil Mosey dons a stylish outfit akin to the one Micheal Jordan in his famous 1997 final’s game. The young artist draws lyrical parallels between his struggles with proving his innocence and Jordan’s poor health at the time. Through his heartfelt lyrics, Mosey sings, “Tryna ball like Michael Jordan (Jordan)/ Look at my left wrist, it’s gorgeous (Gorgeous)/ Livin’ the life that I wanted (Wanted)/ .”

Lil Mosey Draws Parallels Between His & Michael Jordan’s Struggles

Throughout his verses, Lil Mosey reflects on the feeling of being trapped in his situation. “They love watchin’ you fall/ And they gon’ try to knock you,” he laments. “When you’re back against the wall (Against the wall).” The verse perfectly encapsulates the feeling of not being able to win. But the track also reflects his feelings of rising above the darkness. He makes a not-so-subtle hint in his last verse, “Winnin’ any case a good feeling.” New listeners might overlook the lyric at first. However, fans of Mosey are definitely going to spot the reference right away.

Lil Mosey teams up with producers SephGotTheWaves, Geo Vocals, and ISM to ensure the song’s excellence. As he spent the last couple of years struggling through a storm, he wanted the best team possible. In his latest Instagram post, he captions a snippet of the video with, “This for my fans, this for the culture!” While he was facing prosecution, Mosey’s biggest fans consistently voiced their support. The artist returns the favor in the best way he can, by continuing to put out great music. Stay tuned to learn more about his upcoming music.

Dreamer Isioma Drops Off New Song, “F*ck Tha World”

January 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Dreamer Isioma is quickly becoming one of the most diverse multi-genre artists in the industry. Their unique R&B sound continues to make them one of the new artists that needs to be on your radar. As they continue their momentum into 2023, it seems as though they’re bound to blow up soon.

On Friday (January 13), they dropped off their brand new single, “F*ck Tha World.” Additionally, there’s a music video to go along with it.

The groovy track finds Isioma getting candidly honest about their feelings towards life and self-discovery. “When I disappear to go find myself, I learn the end is near / Rest in peace to your everything,” they sing, opening up the song straightaway.

In the subsequent second verse, they proceed to do more vocally and even experiment with melodically rapping. “Infrared beams on my forehead / I don’t give a f*ck when I’m on tour / Used to give a f*ck, not anymore / Technicolor lights used to keep me up at night, now sleep next to a TEC,” they express explicitly.

However, the hook is undeniably the focus point here. “F*ck the world, it’s all gonna blow up anyways / We’re all gonna float to outer space / Saying ‘f*ck the world’ brings me inner peace / It’s all gonna blow up anyway,” sings Isioma. Overall, their care-free attitude compliments the dreamy production to make this a fun, relatable song.

In February of last year, their official debut album, Goodnight Dreamer arrived. Over the course of its 13 tracks, Isioma experiments with an array of different genres and musical influences.

Furthermore, they saw viral success thanks to their 2020 hit, “Sensitive,” which made waves across TikTok and social media. “I’d never sell out for a check, you stupid motherf*cka / I’ll buy a house and on my own, I put that on my mother / My babe’s gon’ rock Christian Dior, I put that on my lover,” they sing in the undeniably catchy track.

Make sure to stream Dreamer Isioma’s “F*ck Tha World” on Spotify down below. Afterwards, comment your thoughts below. Finally, stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates and releases.

Quotable Lyrics:

Keep messin’ with the kid, it won’t be no fistfight
Finna pull up on your plug with some f*ckin’ sunlight, n*gga
I’m a rainbow, finna do my dance, change my clothes
They really like my swag, they like my pose

ALLBLACK Taps Curren$y For New Song, “Pelicans”

January 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

ALLBLACK is a household name within the diverse Bay Area hip-hop scene. Hailing from Oakland, the “Blitz” rapper combines his city’s bounce with a low-key delivery to create a unique sound.

On his newest release, he links up with New Orleans native Curren$y for the pair’s first official collaboration together, “Pelicans.” Arriving on streaming services on Friday (January 13), the new song also comes with a music video.

The 30-year-old kicks off the track with a bang. After letting the booming 808s and claps settle in, he gets right to storytelling in his calm delivery and evident confidence on the mic. “Like Ashanti, I’m so foolish / Ridin’ with this dirty glock, I pray that I don’t use it / N*ggas wanna take my life, I guess they gon’ have to go lootin’ / N*ggas thinkin’ they f*ckin’ wit me, they gon’ have to prove it,” he raps in the first verse.

Curren$y effortlessly follows suit, matching his energy in an organic way. “New Orleans to The Bay love, it always been that way / I been connected, it’s a blessin’ / Some rappers can’t go kick it nowhere, that sh*t’s stressful,” Spitta raps in his subsequent verse.

For the first time since 2017, ALLBLACK didn’t release a project last year. In 2021 though, he dropped his stacked debut album, TY4FWM. Featuring a wide variety of artists including E-40, Peezy, Drakeo the Ruler and more, the 14 tracks evidently showcase his impact on the California sound.

On the other hand, Curren$y is continuing his streak as one of the most consistent rappers in the game. Last year, he dropped three full-length projects, as well as a deluxe version to one of them, Spring Clean 2.

Make sure to stream ALLBLACK and Curren$y’s “Pelicans” on either Spotify or SoundCloud down below. Comment your thoughts afterwards. Finally, stay tuned to HNHH for all of the newest updates and releases.

Quotable Lyrics:

Took a photo with a fan and she looked me in my eyes
She said my friends wanna know, how come you don’t believe in God?
If you rock, I’m gon’ roll, Mike Amiri make my clothes
With serial killers, demons, jackers and CEOs

SZA Drops “Kill Bill” Music Video

January 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Since her second studio album SOS dropped last month, fans have made SZA’s “Kill Bill” a standout song on the 23-track project. On Tuesday night, the Grammy-winning singer gifted her fans with visuals for the song, which offers a nod to Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill series.

Featuring Vivica A. Fox, who plays Vernita Green in the 2004 film, the music video shows SZA out for blood and vengeance. After an assassination squad shoots up her trailer, she dons a sword and rides out in the night on a motorcycle to take karma into her own hands.

Finding the man who ordered the hit, SZA then faces him before ripping his heart out. The visual’s final scene shows the singer-songwriter naked and tied up as she continues to sing the track’s melodic lines.

Fans quickly turned “Kill Bill” into a hit, faithfully streaming the song and also making it go viral on social media. With the not-so-subtle lyrics about killing her ex-boyfriend, SZA sings, “I might kill my ex, not the best idea / His new girlfriend’s next, how’d I get here? / I might kill my ex, I still love him though / Rather be in jail than alone.”

Rich The Kid Has “No More Friends” On New Single

December 17, 2022 by newhiphopnews

Atlanta’s own Rich the Kid is back with a new single, “No More Friends.” Fans of his work will likely recognize his fast flows and minimal beat selection with an updated flair. Moreover, the track will appear on his upcoming album, Life’s a Gamble. Also, the track comes after “Motion,” which he released jointly with the announcement that he’s inked a deal with RCA Records.

Such moves have boosted Rich’s career, who hadn’t dropped new solo music since 2021. His output that year included the short project Lucky 7 and his collaboration with Lil Wayne, Trust Fund Babies. Still, a year’s gap between releases is still consistent enough to dismiss any claims of falling off. However, it seems that the Atlanta-raised rapper has found new life with RCA, as he excitedly shared.

“They didn’t believe in me @rcarecords DID,” the 30-year-old wrote via an Instagram post. “NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH THE best labels in the world Rich Forever X RCA, thank you to my team @bystormpitts everyone who helped make this happen.”

Instrumentally, the short track takes a more psychedelic tone that the Kid’s previous output thanks to the synth tones. They have a lot of atmosphere to them, and their high pitch and fragile tone are a nice deviation from his usually minimal melodies. This track feels a little more expansive as a result, with the simple drum pattern keeping his flow and rhymes in check.

As far as the lyrical content, the “New Freezer” MC wants more money, more success, but no more friends. Much of the track is dedicated to those flexes, whether about wealth or women, and it’s mostly framed around Rich as an individual. There aren’t many references to his circle, and that omission only adds to the track’s themes.

What do you think of Rich the Kid’s latest track, “No More Friends”? Let us know in the comments below and check out the song on your preferred streaming service. You can also peep the music video and some notable lines below, and stay tuned to HNHH for the best hip-hop releases.

Quotable Lyrics

Who callin’ me? This must be the money it got to be (What?)
Big proud of me, before I sleep, I pray on my enemies
B***h, you ain’t rich, pretend to be
Got a b***h so gutter from Tennessee
