Rich The Kid, Famous Dex, & Jay Critch Get The Band Back Together For “Rich Forever 5”

Rich The Kid, Famous Dex, and Jay Critch (Rich Forever) were one of the bigger rap groups in the late 2010’s. However, over the last half decade, the trap trio has been focusing on their solo careers. Since 2019, Rich The Kid has put out four tapes, one of which was a collab tape with Lil Wayne called Trust Fund Babies. Furthermore, the Georgia native has been on some of the largest records over the last year with Kanye West’s “CARNIVAL” being one of them. For, Famous Dex, he’s been laying extremely low. He just has one tape to his name, which is 2020’s Diana. Finally, the New Yorker, Jay Critch, he’s got five LPs to his name.

Now, after all of this time, they are reuniting for Rich Forever 5, the fifth entry in their trio’s discography. There wasn’t a ton of promotion for this record, as they dropped off “Big Dawg” in mid-December last year. Furthermore, there wasn’t a lot of information surrounding it in terms of its progression since that lead single. But the wait is finally over for those who have been yearning for a reunion. Here, Rich, Dex, and Critch, keep the tracklist to 16 cuts, with features from Trippie Redd, Kodak Black, and Lil Crix. Stream the project with the DSP links below.

Rome Streetz & Daringer Drop Off Their Touted Collab Project “Hatton Garden Holdup”

Rome Streetz and Buffalo, New York producer Daringer have been reeling in quite a few curious ears lately. This unofficial duo has sneakily had hip-hop heads waiting for their collaboration project to drop. Well, Rome Streetz and Daringer have done just that this weekend, as Hatton Garden Holdup is now here. The London bred underground MC teased that him and his partner and crime had something serious cooking on his Instagram about three months ago. Accompanying a cold picture of them together was the caption, “We Been in the lab cooking up a batch,” Rome began. “Almost that time to put the slab out on the streetz… To put it real simple Rome Streetz and Daringer bout to Drop a Album and it’s a f***in scud missile… Stay tuned!!”

This got some serious attention, especially from fellow East Coast natives such as Conway the Machine, Westside Gunn, and more. Leading up to the tape, “Starbvxkz” and “Sage” featuring ScHoolboy Q just a few weeks before October 4. Overall, we can see why the hype for Hatton Garden Holdup was so real. Daringer is cooking on nearly every beat here. He’s able to create a luxurious, smoky, and grimy environment, which is perfect for an MC like Rome. His braggy and ultra-violent lyrics complement the various soundscapes that his beat maker lays down. Critics and causal listeners are raving about it as well, so be sure to get it on this ASAP.

Jadakiss Confirms He Has A New Solo Album In The Works

Jadakiss says he’s working on a new solo album and that fans may get to hear the project sooner than than later. He discussed the upcoming effort during an interview with AllHipHop’s Chuck Creekmur. “I’m actually working on it now. I wasn’t planning to let it out yet, but yeah, I’m working on it. I’ve got two more projects with Def Jam, and hopefully, we continue doing business in the future. If not, it’s all good—I’ll still deliver. But yes, I’m working on it right now,” he told the outlet.

It won’t be the first time The Lox rapper has worked solo, having dropped five studio albums over the course of his career, beginning with Kiss tha Game Goodbye, followed by Kiss of Death, The Last Kiss, Top 5 Dead or Alive, and most recently, Ignatius. He hasn’t confirmed any further details about the title of his next project, nor a release date.

Jadakiss had been making an appearance at The Queen in Wilmington for HBCU week during the interview. He used the opportunity to speak on the importance of HBCUs. “Anything affiliated with HBCUs is important. My son actually went to Clark Atlanta, and we need more kids enrolling in these schools,” he said. “With all the focus on NIL (Name, Image and Likeness), D1 programs and big schools, a lot of kids are being persuaded to go elsewhere. So anytime I can support, whether it’s hitting the stage or doing a panel, I’m going to be there. Honestly, I didn’t even know I had this today because we just got back from the West Coast leg of The LOX’s 30th Anniversary Tour. So when they told me I had to be here, I was like, ‘What?’ But I’m here!”

Fans will be able to catch Jadakiss in person, later this year, as there are a few more dates lined up on The LOX’s 30th Anniversary Tour. Be on the lookout for further updates on Jadakiss on HotNewHipHop.

Kamaiyah Delivers An Easy & Breezy Listening Experience With “Before We Party”

Kamaiyah has a cult following and it’s for good reason. Overall, the Oakland, California native can give you all sorts of vibes at any given moment. She can go from funky West Coast bangers to more vibey and slowed down cuts. The latter is what she was delivering on her latest mini album, Figuring Out My Emotions. Overall, it was about all of the feelings she had dealt with recently. Her being able to switch up her style so effortlessly also leads to an exciting unpredictability factor. It seems that whenever she experiences some sort of mood swing, she becomes inspired to drop something new. That could be what has led Kamaiyah to drop off this new seven-track tape, Before We Party.

To us, this project feels like it’s here to tide fans over for something in the LP format. Part of our reasoning actual comes just from the title itself. However, the tracks are also contributing to that. Given that it’s just over 18 minutes long, Before We Party appears to be here for the vibes and no more than that. But to be honest, that’s not a bad thing, especially when its Kamaiyah the one bringing them. She’s someone you can almost always go to for crisply produced and fun tracks. That’s exactly what this is, and it does it very well. Kamaiyah sadly never got the same love as some of the bigger femcees, but that doesn’t bother us. She’s consistent as they come and it’s why we keep coming back to her projects no matter how big or small.

Consequence Returns After 13 Years With “Nice Doing Business With You”

Consequence was hyping up Nice Doing Business With You in April of 2022, labeling it as essentially a perfect summer album. “I’m looking forward to people being able to ride out for the spring and the summer”, he told AllHipHop. Not too long after that, the New York veteran would go on to release its stacked lead single “Blood Stain”. Featuring production from Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, Ojivolta, and 88 Keys, it was (and still is) a tremendous track and one that embodies Consequence’s trademark jazzy/soulful style.

However, despite a few loose singles, it seemed like Nice Doing Business With You was going to be shelved. But hope was restored in the summer of this year with another Ye collab, “No Apologies”, and “Overdose” with YNW Melly. The latter might seem unlikely, however, according to Hot 97, this cut was also in the works for a while. Consequence says it went something like, “He literally was just like, ‘Yo, I got you OG yeah,’ wrote the s***. He just was on some, ‘Yo, yeah I got you, Unc,’ type s***. So, he ain’t do nothing but respect me…Then literally the next week I think is when that s*** started cooking with the case… So I think this might be the last feature he did”. Overall, we are just happy to have ‘Quence back and we are even more ecstatic that the quality is high even with a 13-year gap in between albums.

KILLY Goes Back To The Basics With “LIFE I CHOSE”

We feel that KILLY operates at his highest level when he’s tackling dark and grand instrumentals. It feels like every time we discuss a new release, we bring up his K3 EP from last year. But we feel it’s necessary because it contains some of his most potent cuts. He was rapping over some truly haunting, almost gothic and alien-like trap beats with “Same Energy” and “Cut Em Off” being some prime examples. However, after that mini project, we felt that KILLY was sort of losing some steam. “LIFE I CHOSE” with Dom Corleo and “POP 2” with Fourfive came across as some of his more generic releases. Those cuts, along with “FR33ZING” and “REAPER”, land on the latest effort from KILLY, LIFE I CHOSE.

The latter duo we just mentioned were slight improvements, but nothing compared to some of the others on this 15-song tracklist. KILLY’s seventh project has a pretty strong start with “POISON”, which sounds like you are about to enter a war alongside him thanks to the epic horns laced into the beat. “AGILITY” keeps the momentum going with a glitchy melodic rap instrumental, which then transitions into a guitar riffing outro. Their may be some HARDSTONE PSYCHO inspiration on it, but it works still. As for the rest of LIFE I CHOSE, there are plenty more enjoyable moments like “HUH HUH”, “BLACK OPS”, and “GRAVITY”. It may not be consistent in terms of quality, but KILLY does sound confident overall, as we feel he’s back in the realm of rap where he can dominate at times.

Babyface Ray Keeps It Real & Chill On “The Kid That Did”

Babyface Ray might not be a rapper that’s on everyone’s radar, but to us, he’s really making a nice statement with The Kid That Did. This is the Detroit, Michigan native’s latest project and it comes on the heels of 2023’s Summer’s Mine. In terms of singles, it was led by quite a few. The roll out began back in March with “Money On My Mind” and “Shy Kid”. Then, things would continue a couple of months later with a July two-pack of “Ghetto Boyz” and “Rubberband Man”.

Finally, Babyface Ray would wrap things up with “Count Money” and then Wavy Navy University on Monday. Overall, we feel that the laid-back veteran is sounding perhaps better than he ever has. Throughout the 20 songs here, he’s dropping some simple yet effective lyrical gems, keeping things real with the listener. Furthermore, the production is excellent and that helps when you have stars like Boi-1da, DJ ESCO, and Pooh Beatz in the fold. It’s wavy and crisp and it also feels kind of fresh while also paying some respects to the sounds that have been created in the blue-collar city. There’s a lot of standout tracks, with some our favorites being the Veeze-assisted “Wavy Navy University” and “Watching My Page”.

Fred Again.. Will Leave You In A State Of Bliss With “Ten Days”

One of London’s most eclectic musical talents, fred again.., is back with a new project, ten days. This tape is here pretty soon after his USB outing which was more a collection of tracks that was built upon over the last two years. Currently, that number is up to 16 and clocks in at around one hour and six minutes of material. Tons of rappers land on that offering, including Baby Keem, Future, Rico Nasty, Lil Yachty, Anderson .Paak, and more. Interestingly, the latter’s track, “places to be”, which also features CHIKA, is on ten days.

However, USB features two remixes, and not the final cleaned up version. Even though fred again.. is dropping this at the tail-end of the summer and it does have a lot of uplifting vibes on it, it still feels like you can play at any time. With the colder months approaching, moods may swing in the opposite direction. But to cure that, all you have to do is spin ten days and you’ll be instantly better. A lot of the beats on have a cheery, whimsical, or just possess some high energy. The first half features more of the latter, whereas the second half becomes more toned down in some respects. He really did curate a fun palette of soundscapes, and the guests fill in the gaps perfectly.

Doechii Makes A Statement With “Alligator Bites Never Heal”

There’s no sugarcoating it anymore, Doechii is now on the verge of superstar status after dropping off Alligator Bites Never Heal. This is the debut mixtape from the Tampa, Florida rapper and singer and its via Capitol Records and Top Dawg Entertainment. The 26-year-old rolled out the red carpet for this project slowly but surely through her SWAMP SESSION series on YouTube. Out of all of the songs, the ones that have made the final cut include “NISSAN ALTIMA”, “BULLFROG”, “BOOM BAP”, and “CATFISH”. Throughout her career, the “What It Is” MC has always been able to mix humor and aggressiveness in her music. However, Doechii is now adding more layers to some of her tracks on Alligator Bites Never Heal.

“STANKA POOH” is perhaps the greatest example of this, as she raps about her mortality and the type of legacy she would leave behind if she were to die today. On “DENIAL IS A RIVER”, Doechii gets introspective about a wacky breakup, various stages in her career trajectory, as well as her addictions all while being dynamic and comical in her vocal delivery. Another reason why this mixtape is excellent is because of the irony of “BOOM BAP”. We talked about this track previously and how it’s about how Doechii views herself as more than a “rappity rap” MC. However, a lot of this LP sees her perform over modernized 90’s era boom bap and with great succession at that. Outside of some of the best tracks being a little too short, this will go down as one of the most underrated listening experiences of 2024. Doechii is here y’all.

EBK Jaaybo Releases New Project “The Reaper” From Behind Bars

This weekend we have a newcomer to the HNHH site. For the first time, we are going to be talking about Stockton, California rapper, EBK Jaaybo. Formally known as Jaymani Gorman, he is a very young artist, as he recently just turned 21 years of age. According to his Genius page, hip-hop runs in the family. His dad, James Gorman, who goes by Rrari, has been instilling music in him since he was a child. Furthermore, EBK Jaaybo has multiple siblings who are MCs, as well as some cousins. EBK Bckdoe, EBK Osama, EBK Tootie, and Gleeko Riccoo are in his immediate nucleus. Then, you have his relatives EBK Hari B, EBK Lil Mobbalay, and Verde Babii.

In terms of more facts about Jaaybo, he’s dealt with a lot of legal issues. In fact, he’s in midst of some as we speak. According to an interview with Passion Of The Weiss, he’s in jail for illegal firearm possession by a felon at the San Joaquin County facility. Jaaybo tells the publication that he’s going to be out in about four months and once he’s out again he’s going to drop a bunch more and go on tour.

Some of that creative energy that is bubbling up inside is now on his newest project. It’s called The Reaper, and Jaaybo describes it as “straight-up street s***”. We can certainly how that’s the case, with ultra agressive flows, bars, and instrumentals. Try out his new project with the links below.
