Morray Looks To Make It “Out The Hole” On Motivational New Single

Despite the low output, Fayetteville, North Carolina singer and rapper Morray is an exciting talent. Most may remember him from his uplifting feature on J. Cole’s “m y . l i f e” from The Off-Season. However, he’s been on plenty of other major projects like ones from Macklemore, Busta Rhymes, as well on the soundtracks for Creed III and Madden NFL 22. But as we said, the solo catalog remains pretty short, as he has dropped just one album which landed in 2021. Hopefully, though, Morray is working toward ending the drought with “Out The Hole” being a potential sign of that.

This is the EMPIRE affiliate’s third release of the year, with the previous two dropping on YouTube exclusively. Morray is known for his preacher-like voice and inspirational messages. “Out The Hole” provides more of those trademark qualities in addition to his singing and rapping style. Over a southern-style beat, Morray belts out lines about how much he’s improved his life over the years. The chorus is especially an amazing display of his vocal range, as he raps, “From the bottom to the top, a n**** made it out of the motherf***in’ ho-o-ole / Blue car, big crib, this ain’t how I used to live, n****, no-oh-oh / You be actin’ like you n****s know, but you n****s don’t really f***in’ know-oh-oh.” If you’re in the market for some empowerment this song has it in a surplus amount.

“Out The Hole” – Morray

Quotable Lyrics:

Had to learn to be asserted when it come to them bands
N****s be tryna find the exit after gettin’ the grand, it’s big
Loyalty shouldn’t come with no price
But nowadays, n****s wanna ask you for a piece of the pie
But can’t bake they own cake, so I ain’t givin’ up mine
Be Tony Hawk, get on board, n****, learn how to grind (Whoa-oh-oh)

Armani White Unleashes Upbeat Single “TTSO.”

It’s been a few months since fans have heard a new solo track from Armani White. Luckily, however, he returned last week with “TTSO.” The upbeat single features carefree lyrics and a fun, hard-hitting beat. The song arrived alongside a playful accompanying visualizer, in which White dances and raps to the music in a store.

White first teased the new track in an Instagram video early last week, leaving his followers eager to hear more. It’s safe to say that they aren’t disappointed, and based on one of his latest posts, it looks like there could be more on the way. On November 15, he shared the cover art for the single on Instagram and announced that he was embarking on a new era. “The Blue Era officially begins [blue circle emoji],” he captioned the post. “I got a bunch to say right now but i’ll say it over time. I leveled up in the darkness and TTSO. is officially out. Thank you to everyone on the forefront and background who fought to get us back outside. Blanco. 🎨: @theshaneramoss.”

The “Billie Eilish” performer has also been posting a series of videos that show him rapping while wrapped in a blue blanket. In the caption for his latest one, which arrived about a week ago, he explains how the current state of the world has inspired him. “I know the world is in a slump right now, but that’s made me feel more comfortable to write these vulnerable pieces,” he wrote. “I’ve been fighting behind the scenes for a year now about music. but I’ve just set my own countdown that if nothing changes — i’m doing it myself.”

Skiifall Gives Us A Lush Portrait Of A “Mystery Man” On New Single: Stream

Skiifall is coming back with a new lover’s rock EP titled Lovers Til I’m Gone, produced entirely by Kenny Beats. The “Yuteman Dennis” rapper, singer, and artist dropped the new summery relationship cut “Mystery Man” to celebrate the announcement, and the project will reportedly drop on January 15. In a statement, the Montreal creative and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines native previewed what he wanted this new direction to look like.

“When I first sat with Kenny Beats, he spoke openly about how wanting to honor his father had inspired him to release solo music that ultimately became his debut album Louie,” Skiifall shared. “That conversation gave me the inspiration and confidence to try making music that my own mother would like listening to, since my earliest music wasn’t something she could relate to.” Of course, on his previous effort Woiiyoie Tapes Vol. 2: Intense City, he already proved he could transcend genre lines and show off his talent with ease.

“Mystery Man” will definitely heat you up in the northern hemisphere as we close out the year, and it’s a very exciting and charismatic direction from the “Fam Without Blood” multi-hyphenate that we’re excited to hear grow. If you haven’t heard Skiifall’s new single yet, you can find it on your preferred streaming service or listen to it via the YouTube visualizer below. Down there, you can also find some notable lines from the record, as well as the comments section for your to leave your thoughts on the song. As always, come back to HNHH for more of the latest amazing releases in music around the clock.

DDG & Real Boston Richey Hype Their Ladies Up On “What U Bad For”

If you have been keeping an eye on DDG’s movement online lately, a lot of it has been related to Halle Bailey. The Michigan native has clearly not been okay since the breakup last month, even saying so himself. On a recent Q&A livestream, the rapper and YouTuber was asked about moving on and seeing someone new. He quickly shut that down, saying, “No, I’m not dating. I haven’t moved on.” Given how fresh it is, it makes a lot of sense. A lot of people have not been the kindest to him since their falling out, assuming he was at fault.

However, on his new single with Real Boston Richey, “WHAT U BAD FOR,” DDG is addressing that very topic, as well as where his mind is at regarding Halle.Yeah, they cappin’ and s*** on the blogs, they think I’m a bum, but f*** that s*** / I like when they countin’ me out, ’cause I know I’m that n****, I love that s***.” He then adds, “Thing about Halo mommy, you know that’s my baby forever, y’all know that I love that— (Go).” Whether or not this anthem for the baddies was just a vehicle to drop these bars in will remain a mystery. But if it was, it’s certainly doing its job at creating some conversation.

Prolly be single like DDG, I tried to f*** my b**** wit’ a condom
She ain’t goin’ for that
N**** ain’t bought you shit in six months, how the f*** you goin’ for that?
N**** done offered two K for the p**sy, b****, you goin’ for that?

Wizkid Drops Off A Rhythmic Vibe With “Kese (Dance)”

One of the modern fixtures in African music is back with a new vibe and it’s extremely intoxicating. We are of course talking about Wizkid, who has a new single out this week, “Kese (Dance).” The title is what you will be doing plenty of once you press play on this and it’s more of a loose party anthem compared to its counterpart. That would be “Piece of My Heart” featuring Brent Faiyaz, which is a more multi-faceted listening experience. It’s certainly got some groove to it, but it’s more lowkey and features a break in the action halfway through and becomes an alternative R&B ballad.

Conversely, “Kese (Dance)” is a nonstop Afrobeats bop. On the three minute single, Wizkid is just looking to have a good time and dance the night away. “Blow some trees, make me feel alright / I no fit lie, man, I’m wasted / And I’m feeling reckless,” he effortlessly croons. Both of these are tracks are here for an exciting reason, as Wizkid is getting ready to drop his sixth studio album next Friday, November 22. Morayo, which means “I see joy,” will be his first project since 2022’s More Love, Less Ego. Check out “Kese (Dance)” in the meantime, with the link below.

The Kid Laroi & Quavo Want To “Slow It Down” On Their Collab

After taking a long hiatus following the release of F*CK LOVE 3+: OVER YOU in 2021, The Kid LAROI came back firing on all cylinders in 2023 with his official debut album. THE FIRST TIME features hits like “NIGHTS LIKE THIS” with some of the deluxe cuts now causing some buzz. “BABY I’M BACK” and “GIRLS” are the ones ringing off at the moment. However, now the youngster from Australia is back in this creative groove, he doesn’t want to slow things down. The Kid LAROI is here this weekend with “SLOW IT DOWN,” a sexier pop rap/pop crossover with former Migo, Quavo. It’s their first collaboration and given their ability to adjust to so many genres, the team-up almost makes too much sense.

The single follows up on “APEROL SPRITZ,” an indirect love letter to pop star and girlfriend, Tate McRae. Given the lack of time in between releases, it seems like LAROI is back in album mode. Genius apparently has the inside scoop, with WATCH THIS! being the supposed title. The “STAY” rapper and singer hasn’t formally announced anything on his socials, but we think this is a real possibility. He’s on a hot streak, so why ruin that? “SLOW IT DOWN” definitely has the potential to be another hit for LAROI with its sticky melody and chorus. Check it out with the link below and see if you agree with our assessment.

Ray Vaughn Finally Announces First Project With TDE And Delivers Isaiah Rashad-Assisted Single “East Chatt”

Ray Vaughn is going to help round out what’s been a very strong year for the TDE imprint with an upcoming EP. Not to be greedy or ungrateful, but it’s about damn time! We say that out of excitement though, as the Long Beach, California native has been highly impressive this year. Him, Doechii, and Devin Malik have all been showing that the label is good hands going forward and we ecstatic for what Ray’s going to bring. The extended play will be called The Good, The Bad, & The Dollar Menu, but there’s no release date yet. On top of that, the tracklist remains a mystery as well. However, the latter fact doesn’t surprise us at all because there are a lot of great songs to include on it.

Some of those include collaborations with Pusha T and SiR and terrific solo performances. You can throw “Black Jesus” and “Supposed To Die” into the latter category. According to the press release, The Good, The Bad, & The Dollar Menu is going to be a holistic listening experience. “The EP will showcase the various experiences Ray has encountered through his adolescence, journey as an artist, to his eventual signing with TDE.” While we wait on what should be a personal project, Ray Vaughn is feeding into those themes with his newest offering from it, “EAST CHATT.” It’s another collaborative effort with TDE veteran Isaiah Rashad and a mellow one at that. Rashad kicks the track off with his signature hazy delivery before Vaughn comes in with a passionate verse about his upbringing and successes he’s achieved. You can stream the song below with the music video link.

Lil Nas X Is Moving With A Sense Of Urgency On “Light Again!”

You can nitpick Lil Nas X all you want, but if there’s one thing that you can’t deny is his ability to make infectious hits. The Georgia rapper, singer, songwriter, and producer has shown that time and time again with songs like “INDUSTRY BABY,” “MONTERO,” and of course, “Old Town Road.” Even though it’s been a little bit since we have heard from him, he hasn’t lost his Midas touch. We say that because pretty soon, Lil Nas X should be able to add “LIGHT AGAIN!” to that stacked list of chart-toppers. This is one of his singles that will find a home on his upcoming sophomore album, DREAMBOY. The Georgia native has been teasing this new era for a little bit now and it’s inching closer to becoming reality.

Based on the promotion and some of the things that Nas X has said online, it seems like he just wants to find himself again and release the material he wants to. Sure, the expectations are going to remain fierce, but hearing “LIGHT AGAIN!” he sounds eager, urgent, but also more carefree in some ways. “Back ends, booked up, look up / I’m flyin’, yeah, I’m free now, see now / Society’s tie on me released now / F*** crazy, I’m finna go senile,” he raps. The track has a grand presence to it with thumping drums and the overall swelling build-ups throughout. It’s more of an EDM/pop/dance blend, but the hip-hop elements are still there. Nas X looks to be teasing a more explorative sonic direction with DREAMBOY. as well and we are ready for the ride to come.

Lil Baby Wants To Give His Girl Everything And Then Some On “Insecurities”

Lil Baby is promising his hungry fans a special run going forward, and that includes a new album. The Quality Control signee and Georgia native did so via a fiery Instagram post, writing, “Ain’t It Crazy How They Tryna Play Me Like I Ain’t The One 😤😤!!! It’s That Time! I Would Say Again But This Run Will Be Totally Different!! I Had The Darkest Period Of My Life These Last Two Years But I Stayed Down And Overcame That S*** 🙏🏾 Now I’m Back To Fu*cin S*** Up As Usual…, Sincerely Wham!! WHAM (Who Hard As Me) currently doesn’t have a release date, but Genius is expecting it to be a 2025 project. To formally kick off the rollout, Lil Baby came back today with two singles, “5AM” and “Insecurities.”

In this post, we are focusing on the latter, and this one sees the hitmaker showing his mushier side. He details his strong affection for a woman he’s with. She seems to really be special because Lil Baby’s is willing to shove aside her imperfections. He’s spoiling her with material things, but also with his actions out of the goodness of his heart. Produced by Wheezy, CuBeatz, Klimperboy, KB, Juko, and Macshooter, the track features a nice guitar loop and some pretty piano keys the dance in and out the instrumental. It’s a catchy tune for sure and it’s a solid start for the future album.

Lil Baby Prepares For New Album With “5AM”

Fans have been waiting for Lil Baby’s new album for some time now, and recently, they got yet another taste of what’s to come. Early this morning, the Atlanta rapper dropped off his new song fittingly titled “5AM” alongside an accompanying music video. In the Wheezy-produced track, Lil Baby’s signature flow is complemented by a hard-hitting beat. It serves as a solid teaser for his upcoming LP, which he references towards the end of the song. “Even my mama be askin’ me ‘Where is the album? We want it’ / Had to get on my business and tighten up on my mental, I’m coming,” he raps.

Lil Baby’s latest release arrives amid speculation that he’ll be teaming up with Young Thug for a song sometime soon. Earlier this month, the newly free rapper seemingly teased the collab on X. “Real plea deal jack!” his first post-prison tweet read, followed by “Wham let’s drop one on these rats peter.” This prompted a heartfelt response from Lil Baby, who made it clear he was happy to see Young Thug back home.

“I missed you mf !!” he wrote. “Welcome home my brudda! Thank god you able to get back to the fam in good health and spirits! Wish ya none but billions jack! #whateverwhamsaygoes.” Lil Baby went on to preview a new track at the Don’t Fall In Love festival in San Bernardino and was later spotted in the studio with Young Thug, Travis Scott, and Future. “5AM” also arrives amid comparisons to Gunna resulting from the A Gift & a Curse artist’s rumored beef with Young Thug.
