Sleepy Hallow Shows His Moodier & Melodic Side On “Read This When You Wake Up”

Sleepy Hallow and Sheff G have now both officially delivered. Leading up to the release of both of their projects, both New York drill rappers were dropping singles in tandem. They were put out via these two packs called Don’t Sleep While It’s Lit, and there were two of them. Additionally, they dropped a handful of teaser tracks on their own. Now, with Sleepy Hallow’s Read This When You Wake Up here this weekend, the cycle is now complete.

As we have stated many times before, one thing that separates the Jamaican-born artist apart from most of his drill contemporaries is his ability to meld pop and R&B elements with the rap subgenre. On this project, he’s doing just that, and it’s created one of his moodiest listening experiences yet. Typically, with R&B and pop music, catchy choruses and hooks are key. There are a couple of instances where Sleepy Hallow pulls that off too. “Mmm” is one example, even though it’s just him repeating the song’s title. “Winners In Paris” is another that executes it better with an additional catchy melody to boot. Overall, if you are a fan of Hallow’s more low-key cuts, this album may be for you.

Sheff G & Sleepy Hallow Are Back To Tease Their Albums With Softer Vibes “Never Again” & “Upgrade My Life”

Sheff G isn’t one to consistently drop more sensual tracks, but he’s doing that this weekend with “Never Again.” It’s a brand-new promotional record for his upcoming album Proud of Myself, which comes out next Friday, November 22. This is the second offering so far, with the first being “Today.” That hit streaming on November 1. Also teasing an album in tandem with Sheff is one his New York drill counterparts, Sleepy Hallow.

He’s left off a similar vibe to G’s “Never Again,” however, it’s more of an introspective listen. Hallow’s “Upgrade My Life” is just what the title says it’s about, as he raps in a lowkey demeanor about getting his mom a more comfortable lifestyle while living lavishly himself. This single is also his second from his respective project that’s coming on December 6, READ THIS WHEN YOU WAKE UP. It’s more a trap/pop rap cut compared to Sheff G’s which is in the sexy drill vein. Him and Lil Tecca vow to fix things with women they both feel they’ve wronged too many times. If you are wanting to hear how they fare with these topics, check them out via the combo EP that includes each single called Don’t Sleep While It’s Lit -Part 2, below.

Quotable Lyrics From “Never Again”:

Reason she f***in’ with Tecca, I’m tryna do better, I’m gettin’ her wetter
Ayy, she give me top in the back of the Tesla
I’m ridin’ a Jester, I feel like I’m Lester
Ayy, know what you want, then you gotta be honest
She probably just got that real n**** to ‘tect her (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ayy, she wild like Ke$ha, ayy, she bad, ayy, she pressure (Oh yeah)

Kyle Richh & Cash Cobain Are Seeking “Closure” On Their Sexy Drill Collab

The up-and-coming New York drill trio of Kyle Richh, TaTa, and Jenn Carter, 41, has a formula. They are partiers to the core and almost every track they concoct is meant for the clubs. They’ve been riding with this for the most part since the start of the 2020’s and it’s become their identity. However, sticking to your guns for too long can become too repetitive for some. So, it was smart of Kyle Richh to switch things up, not only for himself, but for the group in the long run as well.

Yes, Kyle Richh, the de facto leader of 41, is riding solo for this new release, “Closure,” and it’s a nice change of pace. Instead of dropping an anthem for the promiscuous, he’s penning one for those who crave intimacy and a deeper connection. From the lyrics, it sounds like Richh is trying to get a girl’s attention and draw her away from another man. He thinks he can do better for her and give her a relationship that’s worth seeing through. The moody and atmospheric beat heighten that sexual intensity, as well as Cash Cobain’s feature. See if this switch-up on “Closure” is something you want to hear more of from Kyle and 41 going forward by checking out the video link below.

Quotable Lyrics:

I want to show you a life you ain’t used to
If I tell you I love you, I hope that the feelings is mutual
Only thing on my mind all the time, light brown eyes, I’m in love with her pupils
I got you all to myself, and I don’t need nobody approval (I’on need no—)
If I want it, on bro, I’ma get it, it’s a problem, we’re gonna get through it

Cash Cobain Drops His Biggest Project Yet With “PLAY CASH COBAIN”

Cash Cobain has certainly built a reputable brand off of his sexy drill soundscape. You can pretty much say that he’s essentially the sole creator of this wave in hip-hop, as there are a few copycats out there trying to replicate what he does. However, it’s not nearly going to have the same impact. The Bronx/Jamaica, Queens native’s name has become so massive that no one will probably trump him. However, in our honest opinion, that, along with some okay sample flipping, is about all we can give to PLAY CASH COBAIN.

Unfortunately, the consistent aspect holding back drill as a whole is that it’s difficult to keep each instrumental from sounding the same. This subgenre is known for its specific drum and hi-hat pattern, and it can feel as if its copied and pasted to each song. Pair that with Cobain’s constant and sometimes over-reliant usage of samples, the 19-song tracklist became kind of bore pretty quickly. Additionally, when he raps, he uses the same sort of sleepy and warbly delivery on nearly every occasion. While we appreciate Cash Cobain’s knowledge and respect of past work’s, the repetitive nature is too much to overcome in the end.

Chow Lee Is Keeping That Toxic Energy On Cash Cobain-Produced Single “Practice!”

Chow Lee and Cash Cobain have essentially grown up together in the music industry. Both are New Yorkers, and each artist loves sex and toxicity. Around this time last year, we started to cover this multi-talented duo, with Cash handling beats as well. In less than a year they have exploded, and we consider them pioneers of this sexy drill sound. Cobain has especially been thriving, as he is now one of the most in-demand producers going right now. Don Toliver, Drake, and Ice Spice are just a few that are riding on his wave. But the producer is going back to his roots as him and Chow Lee are here with “practice!”.

This track quickly follows up on “act bad twin!”, another collab with his close pal, as well as Bay Swag. It is perhaps one Chow and Cash’s moodiest cuts ever. If PARTYNEXTDOOR were to make music like this duo, that is what the production evokes the most to us. It is quickly becoming another hit for Lee, as it already has 155,000 plus streams in less than a month. According to a press release, “practice!” is essentially a continuation of that song, with the non-committal lover meeting his match.

The girl he is rapping about is looking for something more serious, however Chow is not on that energy. Instead, he wants to make her a side piece, but she is not going for it. “She said, “Why you talkin’ like that? You got b****es? You talk about p***y in all of your songs” / Baby, you talkin’ practice, uh“. For Chow, it sounds like he has a new project in the works. However, there is no additional information. Possible singles for the unnamed tape could be “ready 2 live!”, “swag it!”, and “SNA!” just to name a few.

Quotable Lyrics:

She told me take her on a date, I’m freaky, I order p***y at the steakhouse
I’m feelin’ litty, brought the Wraith out, lyin’ to b****es, sayin’ I’m at Drake house
I bought a BBL for her birthday, upped it, I ain’t have to bring a cake out
Baby, I’m not talkin’ practice
Baby, I’m not talkin’ practice
No, I ain’t Asian, I don’t know Chan, but I be with Jackie

Skepta Hops On The Sexy Drill Wave With R2R MOE-Assisted Single “Miss Independent”

Skepta is one of the UK grime’s most beloved figures and for good reason. The Tottenham rapper and DJ’s scope extends past hometown, as he immensely popular over here in the States. He really is one of the leaders when it comes to bringing that sound to various audio markets. It is why he has so many listeners eager to get their hands on upcoming seventh studio album, Knife And Fork. It is hopefully coming soon, as Skepta is back with its fourth single, “Miss Independent”.

Big Smoke began the rollout in late January with “Jangrova”. It remains to be a rewarding listen and it is equal parts exhilarating and manic. Skepta dropped it alongside actor Idris Elba, ODUMODUBLVCK, and Tribal Mark. Then, the veteran would give us the more by-the-numbers but still engaging, “Gas Me Up (Diligent)”. The track’s cover art got the influential figure in some hot water for its assumed callback to The Holocaust. Finally, Skepta, Portable, and JAE5 would merge for an Afrobeats rhythm on “Tony Montana”.

This brings us to “Miss Independent”, the most love-centric and vulnerable song yet. It features R2R MOE, a New York drill artist who is a sexy drill advocate. It is clear that Skepta is going to give fans a bevy of soundscapes on Knife And Fork, as he adopts the drill subgenre taking the industry by storm. The production feels very Cash Cobain-esque. Instead, he is nowhere to be found here. PoWR Trav handles the instrumental and incorporates a stunning sample into the mix. See how Skepta fares on “Miss Independent” with the music video link below.

I think I’ve been too polite so nowadays I’m moving precise (Huh)
‘Cause if love is a losing game, then you know I ain’t losing twice (Never)
Trust, she wants to be my wife, my boo for life
I told her I’m too busy for thе bad vibes, I’m only comin’ around if the mood is right (Trust)
Last time, shе made me spend my savings, who knows what I’m gonna do this time (Huh?)
I’m in boobytrap, my guy needs a visa, he’s tryna choose his wife (Ha)
