JT Unveils New Single, Its Cover Art, & Release Date

January 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

At the beginning of January, JT, of the femcee rap duo City Girls, hinted at a single on her Twitter account. “Sideways is a song not a verse & in 2024 I want to go from ‘JT has good verses!’ to ‘JT make good songs !!’” It is always exciting to hear artists want to constantly improve and change the narrative around them. Many people had a lot of negative things to say about RAW, the City Girls’ most recent full-length. Low first-week sales in the single digits dug the hole deeper for them to crawl out of.

However, one bright spot from that record was JT’s solo song “No Bars.” A high-octane banger that was all gas and no brakes. In addition to that, fans were eager to hear what she could do as a solo artist. Especially with an R&B snippet that surfaced and some karaoke raps as well. It seems that the proclamation we referred to at the beginning is going to be the start of this new era for JT.

Chief Keef Announces “Hot Cheetos” Single For “Almighty So 2,” Fans Tired Of Constant Delays

January 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

There is a notorious bunch of rappers who are inconsistent when it comes to delivering on their album promises. Chicago’s Chief Keef is unfortunately in that group. While he is a highly respected and influential figure in the modern history of the genre, that is not enough for fans to excuse his shortcomings. In the 28-year-old’s case, die-hard listeners of his continue to impatiently wait for Almighty So 2.

People have been sitting around dying to hear what he has to offer on the sequel, but alas, it still is not here. If and when it does drop this year, Almighty So 2 will follow up on its predecessor nearly 11 years later. We say this year because Amazon Music and Genius have it slated for a release date in 2024. According to them, the project will be out on March 29. However, it is worth noting that Keef has not confirmed that. But, in addition to that news, the hitmaker has announced a single called “Hot Cheetos.”

The single will hit streaming on February 8 and we also have the cover art for it. Let us just say it is… interesting. It lives up to the title of the song, but Keef has fans questioning it. One says, “that cover is actually horrid.” Another adds, “Second picture is vile.” In addition to roasting the art, people are continuing to grow tired of the single announcements and want an album drop date. “Where’s the f*****g album,” someone says. “Imagine Carti, Kanye, and Chief Keef actually dropping,” adds another. Time will tell, but fans have something to look forward to at least?

What are your thoughts on Chief Keef announcing a new single for his highly-awaited LP Almighty So 2? Is the cover for “Hot Cheetos” one of the worst pieces of artwork you have ever seen for a song? Will this be the best song from the project? Do you actually think the album will drop in March? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below.

Logic Unveils “Ultra 85” Lead Single Release Date And Album Trailer

January 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Logic, aka Sir Robert Bryson Hall II, is finally ready to begin the Ultra 85 hype train. The multi-hyphenate hailing from the East Coast has let many years go by without dropping this project. In fact, some fans have claimed they have been waiting since their high school days for this to drop. Well, the endless waiting is seemingly coming to a close at some point this year. The last time Logic gave his supporters an update about Ultra 85 was back at the beginning of the month on his Instagram. The caption simply read “Ultra 85 2024,” with an image of the gorgeous artwork.

That can be credited to Sam Spratt who has done a plethora of his covers throughout his lengthy discography. This will be Logic’s first true album since 2023’s College Park in February. However, he did also drop a bandcamp exclusive mixtape Inglorious Basterd that featured some classic samples of other popular rap classics. But, for the first single, we have all the news on that.

Lil Nas X Reveals All The Details On New Single “Where Do We Go Now?”

January 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lil Nas X is a master of trolling. His ability to get people talking is uncanny and that was the case with “J CHRIST.” It is the lead single to the Georgia artist’s forthcoming sophomore record that has no release date or title yet. Months and months before the semi-gospel-inspired cut hit streaming services, it was receiving massive amounts of backlash. The main reason is because of Nas X’s comments online.

Many felt he was disrespectful toward the religion and the people who practice it. However, even though so much controversy was swirling around the release there was little doubt it would have a mediocre debut. But, that turned out to be case. Lil Nas X’s “J CHRIST” landed at number 69 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It is still doing numbers regardless, though.

Lil Nas X May Be Responding To The Haters

Maybe this time around for him will be different. Uproxx recently reported that Nas X announced a second single “Where Do We Go Now?” and it will drop this Friday, January 26. He captioned the IG post, “good news yall im dropping new music to match with your depression. ” There could be a secret plan behind dropping another one so soon. It could be a sign the album is dropping soon. Or, this has the potential to be somewhat of a response to all the people who were upset with him over “J CHRIST.” Especially with the caption, Nas X could be hinting at that and is trying to get under fans’ skin.

What are your thoughts on Lil Nas X announcing a new single, “Where Do We Go Now?” Will this be better than “J CHRIST,” why or why not? Is that track still in your rotation? Do you think he is dropping a new one so soon because of the negative backlash? Will this be one of the biggest albums of the year when he eventually drops it? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Lil Nas X. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on around the music world.

PartyNextDoor Continues Resurgence By Announcing New Single

July 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

PartyNextDoor had been pretty quiet as of late. His last album, Partymobile, dropped back in early 2020. Throughout the entire pandemic and up until now, the R&B artist wasn’t releasing any new music of note. Now, seemingly out of nowhere, he’s throwing out new tunes left and right. His latest release, a song titled “Resentment,” will drop tonight, July 6th. He posted a snippet of the track, which has now made the rounds on Twitter.

Two months ago, another unreleased PartyNextDoor song leaked onto the internet. “Bricks,” which features Drake, was created back in the More Life days of Drake’s career. It has a similar sample to the Drizzy song “Passionfruit.” Party also dropped “Her Old Friends” early this year, a sign of more things to come. With “Resentment” being the third appearance on a song this year — he was also on Diddy’s “Sex in a Porsche” — PartyNextDoor is heating up for one heck of a comeback.

“PartyNextDoor4” Coming Soon

The OVO artist has been pairing up with teammate Drake for a few stage performances, with Drizzy confirming PartyNextDoor’s next album release, PartyNextDoor4. Party has also tweeted out, “P4 otw,” all but ensuring fans of plenty of new music on the way. From the snippet above, we can tell that Party is still one of the best R&B singers on the planet right now. He’s crooning over sultry sound and crackling beats, which is what his fans have come to expect.

PartyNextDoor has enjoyed a fairly successful career so far. PartyNextDoor4 will be his fifth studio album, returning to the normal naming of his albums after a brief Partymobile foray. Back in 2017, he racked up nominations, including two Grammy nods for Best R&B Song (“Come and See Me” with Drake) and Album of the Year (Drake’s Views, of which Party was a featured artist). The OVO alum will look to collect more accolades with the latest album. Sadly, we do not have a release date for the project; we’ll simply have to live with “Resentment” dropping tonight as consolation.
