Travis Scott Previews New Song At “Circus Maximus” Afterparty

Travis Scott dropped a short snippet of a new song during an afterparty during his Circus Maximus Tour. The track had a slow, laid-back beat. Furthermore, it appeared to incorporate a sample of an eagle screech into the track before the vocals began. At this time, no other details about the song are available.

There are eight stops left on his Circus Maximus Tour, which has been ongoing since October 2023. Penn State, Milwaukee, St. Paul, Chicago, Columbus, Miami, and Orlando will also host tour stops across the rest of January. However, the tour will end with a February 3 show in St. Louis. Originally, the tour would have ended in Orlando. However, the January 3 show in St. Louis was rescheduled to the end of the tour.

Travis Scott Rolling Loud Air Jordans Sell for $9760

Meanwhile, a pair of Air Jordans that Scott gave to a fan during Rolling Loud Germany recently sold for nearly $10,000 at auction. The shoes were sold through Goldin Auctions for $9760 after a 29-bid auction in December 2023. This saw the lot fall just shy of the $10,000 estimate Goldin had given it. Scott had gifted the shoes to an Egyptian fan after bringing the man up on stage. It was one of several impromptu clothing giveaways Scott did in his pre-Utopia festival circuit.

As mentioned, it wasn’t the first time that Scott gave away his shoes over the summer. Earlier in July, at Longitude Festival in Dublin, Scott got up close and personal with the throbbing mass of fans at the barricade. Picking out one fan in particular, Scott began to rap back and forth with the fan, who eagerly responded. The back-and-forth continued, with Scott getting more and more hyped up about the interaction. When the verse ended, Scott pulled off his shirt, an unreleased Utopia merch item, as well as his Air Jordans. Fighting back the sea of grabbing hands, Scott handed the items to the fan he had rapped with.

Blueface Brings Attention To Latest Arrest With New Project “Free Blueface”

Blueface was recently handcuffed once again. This time it is circling his partners Chrisean Rock and Jaidyn Alexis, according to HipHopDX, his mother, Karlissa Saffold, and numerous other sources. The California native, rapper, and MILF Music founder could face at least 12 months behind bars. His manager, Wack 100, posted an image that said “Free Blueface” on it with a previous mugshot to his Instagram yesterday. Reports are assuming this is surrounding his probation violation.

Fans were speculating that this was a project artwork. One commented under Wack’s post, “It looked like marketing for an album cover.” Another added, “Whole time it’s an album cover.” Well, those guesses were correct. Free Blueface features seven tracks with features from DDG, Kevin Gates, TruCarr, and YungMagnificent.

Blueface Drops New EP After Arrest

Blueface’s recent arrest for apparent parole violations is still pretty unclear, but folks are reacting to so many different angles for it. For example, there’s his baby mamas’ reactions, his mother’s reaction, his manager, and a whole slew of other pop culture happenings he was involved in that now seemingly took a long pause. However, it’s clear that the California rapper’s set on profiting off of this as much as he can, and what better way to do so than some music? Moreover, he just dropped the Free Blueface EP, a seven-track, 16-minute offering of West Coast jams and more traditional trap cuts.

Furthermore, features include DDG and Kevin Gates, plus Tru Carr and YungMagnificent. As far as its quality, Blueface is really doing the same thing he’s always done here, so if you’ve liked him before, you might find something to enjoy. Of course, as of late, he had dedicated himself more to pushing his own artists (mainly his baby mamas) rather than developing his own musical career. One of these is Jaidyn Alexis, who is currently beefing with the 26-year-old’s mother Karlissa Saffold once again thanks to this arrest.

In other news, it seems like his reality TV show is still happening despite this recent arrest, as Zeus Network still rolled out Rap Queens West. The “BDD” MC will accept auditions from various female rappers, and we know how that went for him in the past. Regardless, the winner will receive a whopping $1 million payout, plus a deal with MILF Music courtesy of Zeus and the label. He’s still looking for his next talent, even if the Free Blueface suggests that his own artistic days are likely mostly behind him.

Meanwhile, Chrisean Rock’s reaction to this arrest caused many fans to beg for her to avoid him. Apparently, she suggested some saddened emotions when she found out, which viewers hope won’t turn into a reconciliation. With jail time and the overall legal situation still up in the air, we can’t really make any solid bets yet. On that note, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Blueface.

Lil Tjay “Told Ya” He Would Make It One Day On New Single

There are rappers who like to push their boundaries and others who like to stay in the familiar lane. Both approaches have their pros and cons, that is obvious. If an artist likes to continue to build on their existing sound and improve on it, that is more than respectable. However, some can come across content, and for listeners that can get stale. Lil Tjay is a talented guy, no doubt about it.

But, this new single “Told Ya” feels too familiar. The message and lyrics are solid as usual. On the production side, it sounds agreeable. However, it is something you will hear in a lot of rap songs today. Again, it is not bad by any means. It is just okay at the end of the day for us.

Benny The Butcher Slam Dunks The Competition On “BRON”

Fans are ecstatic about the release of Benny The Butcher’s upcoming project Everybody Can’t Go. Part of the reason for that is because it was pushed back. But, also it is because the gritty Buffalo rapper is one best writers in the game. Luckily for us, we will not have to wait too much longer.

Benny is dropping the project on January 26 in what has become a jam-packed month for hip-hop. Ahead of the release, he and legendary producer Hit-Boy have been cooking up some mean-mugging bangers. Both singles, “Big Dog” with Lil Wayne, and “One Foot In” featuring Stove God Cooks, were phenomenal. As great as those are “BRON” may even top them.

JAY-Z, D’Angelo, And Jeymes Samuel Compose A Soulful Ballad On “I Want You Forever”

Jeymes Samuel is a true artist. He can really do it all and he proves that with two important projects today. The UK native has just rolled out his brand-new movie, The Book of Clarence, and its accompanying soundtrack. Over the past couple of months, the updates surrounding these pieces of art have gotten plenty of people intrigued. That is especially true for music fans because JAY-Z had a major hand in putting this together.

Hov is the executive producer for the album and film and he did a great job in doing all of that. JAY and Roc Nation were able to recruit loads of talent for the sonics. You can find Lil Wayne, Doja Cat, and Kodak Black, across the tape. In fact, Jay-Z also hit the studio to record a unique verse for “I Want You Forever.” He is alongside the legend of neo-soul, D’Angelo to create a funky and wavy ballad.

Listen To “I Want You Forever” By Jeymes Samuel, D’Angelo And JAY-Z

There are so many layers to the song, even with the lyrics being fairly minimal outside of JAY’s portion. From the incredible singing from D’Angelo and the background vocalists to the high-pitched synths, and guitar solo at the end, it all works beautifully. Hov’s verse is quite different because it has to fit in with the soulful production. But, even in the twilight of his career, he does a masterful job. Oh, the song is also nine-plus minutes, but JAY is used to that, and we do not mind it.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new song, “I Want You Forever,” by JAY-Z, D’Angelo, and Jeymes Samuel?

Just sing my song (Song)

Lil Nas X Is Going “Vi-iral” With “J CHRIST” Single & Music Video

Lil Nas X, whether you love him or despise him, knows how to stir up chatter. In addition to that, he is someone you can bet the house on to create a worldwide banger. He accomplished both of those things with his latest single, “J CHRIST.” This track comes off the heels of tons of controversy.

From Kai Cenat calling him out during a recent live stream, to Nas X forging a former Liberty University President’s signature, he has everyone up in arms. The reasoning for this “Christian awakening” was because of some comments he made last year. On his social media accounts, he has been hyping up this as a dedication to Jesus Christ. “MY NEW SINGLE IS DEDICATED TO THE MAN WHO HAD THE GREATEST COMEBACK OF ALL TIME!”

Listen To “J CHRIST” By Lil Nas X

There is a slight reference to the man above. “Back-back-back up out the gravesite / B****, I’m back like J Christ.” But, that is as far as Nas X takes it with gospel inspiration. However, there is an underlying theme about Jesus rising from the dead after he died on the cross. He is essentially comparing his return to music in that way. Nas X felt like he was “blackballed” throughout 2023 for speaking on his holy journey. The music video is racking up the views, which is no surprise. In its first 10 hours, the song has been played over 1.3 million times.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new single, “J CHRIST,” by Lil Nas X? Is this the best single he has ever put out, why or why not? When do you think he will come out with his next album? How do you feel about the visuals that accompany the track? What is the best aspect of the song? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.
