Sexyy Red’s 2023 Features, Ranked

December 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It goes without saying that 2023 has been a great year for Sexyy Red, both as a lead artist and with her features. Throughout the year, the rapper dominated airwaves and made multiple appearances on charts across the globe. In addition, she is also widely regarded as one of the biggest breakout stars of the year. Rolling Stone even crowned her hit song “SkeeYee” as the best rap song of 2023. Likewise, fans of her music will refer to 2023 for years to come, because her work rate was truly astounding. Besides releasing several singles and an album, Sexyy Red had a laudable amount of features in 2023. Ranked from worst to best, here they all are.

21. “Sexyy & Conceited” – Pardison Fontaine ft. Sexyy Red

This track was released as a part of Pardison Fontaine’s recent album SEXT8PE. Sexyy Red’s verse contains her signature confidence and braggadocio. Additionally, while she and Fontaine may not have phenomenal chemistry, they are not a bad pairing. However, this might just be arguably her most forgettable feature of 2023.

20. “Perc & Sex” – YN Jay ft. Sexyy Red & G Herbo

YN Jay originally released “Perc & Sex” as a track without features on his 2022 album Coochie Goat. Following its considerable success, he released a remix featuring Sexyy Red and G Herbo in August 2023. While the original song remains one of his biggest tracks right now, the remix has not been as successful. Sexyy Red tried to pull her weight on the track, but the song didn’t hit quite like it should.

19. “I Love Freaks (Sexyy’s Version)” – Lijay ft. Sexyy Red

In this song, Lijay and Sexyy Red let listeners know just how much they love freaks. This is very familiar territory for Sexyy Red. As a result, although Lijay is the lead artist, she all but eats him up on the track. “I Love Freaks” may not be among the most impressive features Sexyy Red has appeared on in 2023. However, that doesn’t make it any less of a bop.

18. “Big Dawg” – Moneybagg Yo ft. Sexyy Red

Running neither hot nor cold, “Big Dawg” is an okay song featuring okay verses from both rappers. While it’s not a bad song, it could certainly be a lot better than it is. Without a doubt, Moneybagg Yo and Sexyy Red can make a harder song, given the opportunity. Hopefully, they’ll collaborate again and create another fire track.

17. “Hoe Sh*t” – Genesisthegawd ft. Sexyy Red

Genesisthegawd enlisted the help of Sexyy Red on the remix of “Hoe Sh*t,” which was released on October 20, 2023. On the track, the two femcees trade bars on their respective verses. They rap about being on their “hoe sh*t,” and we kind of would like to be on ours as well. While it may not be among her absolute best features of 2023, Sexyy Red shines on this track.

16. “All She Do Is Shake” – J Traxx ft. Sexyy Red

Despite being arguably the least popular song on this list, “All She Do Is Shake” is a good song. It runs for less than two minutes, and features a very short verse from Sexyy Red. However, it manages to be memorable, regardless. Sexyy Red and J Traxx should definitely consider more collaborations in the future.

15. “Shiesty” – Finesse2Tymes ft. Kaliii & Sexyy Red

Another successful collaboration, all three rappers brought their A-game on “Shiesty.” Released on June 23, 2023, the song is a treat for fans of dirty rap. Despite not appearing on the charts, “Shiesty” is considerably popular. Subsequently, it would get much bigger as it has what it takes to be a huge club banger.

14. “Bent (Remix)” – 41, Kyle Richh, Jenn Carter, TaTa ft. Sexyy Red

Hip Hop trio 41 released their project 41 World: Not The Album on November 17, 2023. The 11-track body of work contains their hit song “Bent,” as well as the remix with Sexyy Red. Admittedly, Red has had much bigger features in 2023. However, her chemistry with the members of 41 on this track is undeniable. All four performers effortlessly glide through the song.

13. “No Panties” – Raedio ft. Sexyy Red

“No Panties” is a soundtrack from the second season of Max’s Rap Sh!t. It appears on RAP SHIT: The Mixtape (From the Max Original Series, S2), which was released on November 3, 2023. As usual, Sexyy Red was in her dirty rap bag on this track. Like she does on “Rich Baby Daddy,” she spits bars about letting her “coochie breathe.” We can’t complain because it goes so hard.

12. “Check” – Gloss Up ft. Sexyy Red

Shades of Gloss, an album by Gloss, was released on August 11, 2023. The project contains 13 tracks, and one of its standout songs is “Check.” On the track, Gloss Up brought the heat, and so did Sexyy Red. The verses are notable, and the hook is quite catchy as well.

11. “Peaches & Eggplants (Remix)” – Young Nudy ft. Latto & Sexyy Red

Young Nudy’s “Peaches & Eggplants” remix was released on September 8, 2023. As the title suggests, the song is quite explicit, making Sexyy Red a great fit. While it’s not as successful as the original, this remix is also pretty good. Overall, Sexyy Red and Latto both delivered, as expected.

10. “SLUT ME OUT” – NLE Choppa ft. Sexyy Red

This track was released on April 7, 2023, accompanied by a music video. While the original song charted on the Billboard Hot 100, this remix did not. However, it is a favorite for fans of Sexyy Red and is one of her most popular features in 2023. NLE Choppa and the fiery femcee are a delightable, dirty duo on the track, making for an epic club staple.

9. “Yonce Freestyle” – Kevin Gates ft. Sexyy Red & BG

Released as a non-album single, “Yonce Freestyle” is shaping up to become a sleeper hit. It features a memorable hook from Gates and notable verses from Red and BG. Evidently, the attention it has received is well-earned, and it may very well get more popular. All three rappers are in their element on the track, and that’s what makes it work so well.

8. “Daddy” – Tokischa ft. Sexyy Red

On this reggaeton track, Tokischa teams up with Sexyy Red to deliver a provocative and danceable rap number. The Dominican rapper sets the tone, bringing the heat with her verse. Likewise, Sexyy Red, exhibiting her versatility, eats the beat up as well. “Daddy” is a certified party starter and one of the more unique features Sexyy Red appeared on in 2023.

7. “BING BONG (Remix)” – BlakeIANA ft. Sexyy Red

Although her verse on the track is short, Sexyy Red completely ate it up. Both rappers effortlessly glided on the beat throughout the song. They did it so well that by the time the song ends, you can barely tell that much time has passed. Sexyy Red’s collaborations with other women in rap are always a good idea, and the remix of “BING BONG” is no different.

6. “Area Codes (314 Remix)” – Kaliii ft. Sexyy Red

Representing St. Louis, Missouri, Sexyy Red appears on the 314 remix of “Area Codes.” The track was released on May 11, 2023. It sees Sexyy Red serving up a red hot verse rivaling that of Kaliii’s. The entire song is just a little over two minutes and has a high replay value. As far as Sexyy’s best verses this year, this one’s right up there.

5. “Shake Sumn (Remix)” – DaBaby ft. Sexyy Red

Released on July 7, 2023, DaBaby teams up with Sexyy Red on this remix. If we’re being honest, “Shake Sumn (Remix)” might as well be Sexyy Red’s song. DaBaby gives her so much space to shine, and she does just that. While his own contributions are minimal, somehow, it works pretty well for the track. Apparently, it’s one of the best features Sexyy Red was attached to in 2023.

4. “Face Down” – MCVERRT ft. Sexyy Red & FERG

It’s easy to like a song with an energetic beat like the one featured on “Face Down.” Besides the production, however, the rappers’ performances make the track what it is. Sexyy Red kept up with the two other artists, and they all demolished their verses. With raunchy lyrics that’ll make anyone clutch their pearls, the song was a surefire hit.

3. “One Margarita (Margarita Song) [Ladies Remix]” – That Chick Angel ft. Sexyy Red, FendiDa Rappa & Flo Milli

At this point, the whole world must have heard “One Margarita” already. The original version of the song was released on May 31. Subsequently, it went viral and has spawned several remixes. The “Ladies Remix” was released in August, and is just as much a bop as the original. Sexyy Red features in 2023 are indeed abundant, but there’s something so effortlessly natural about her contributions to the already viral track.

2. “MMM HMM” – Lancey Foux ft. Sexyy Red

Right off the bat, listeners can tell this is a hard song worth jamming to. Firstly, the beat goes wild. Secondly, Lancey Foux delivers exactly as expected. Likewise, Sexyy Red leaves nothing on the plate after her verse is done. It’s a wonder that the song did not appear on the charts, but it certainly deserved to. With a chorus worth replaying over and over again, “MMM HMM” still has enough time to weave itself back into listeners’ consciousness. Perhaps a viral moment on TikTok is just what it needs.

1. “Rich Baby Daddy” – Drake ft. SZA & Sexyy Red

At the moment, this is the biggest song in Sexxy Red’s discography. It was only just released in October as a part of Drake’s eighth studio album, For All the Dogs. However, it has already surpassed every other song in Red’s catalog in terms of streams. It comes as no surprise, considering that it’s a Drake song featuring SZA. Nevertheless, “Rich Baby Daddy” is a great track despite the musical giants that appear on it. Sexxy Red delivers a hook that is quintessential to the song, securing it as one of her best features of all time, and the best in 2023.

Social Media Reacts To Sexyy Red’s “SkeeYee” Being Best Rap Song Of 2023 On “Rolling Stone” List

December 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

December is a time that people use to reflect back on their personal lives, and at the same time, pop culture publications put out retrospective pieces detailing all that we’ve seen unfold in the industry over the past few months. At HNHH, we shared our thoughts on the biggest pop culture moments and best dressed artists, among other things, but currently, it’s Rolling Stone who’s under fire for their annual round-up of the best hip-hop songs. In the past, the outlet’s founder, Jann Wenner, has faced backlash for stating that women and Black creatives “don’t articulate” at the same level of their white, male counterparts. After seeing the publication put Sexyy Red at the top of their Best Hip-Hop Songs OTY list, some social media users are raising their eyebrows.

“Jann Wenner, the co-founder of ‘Rolling Stone,’ literally said that Black artists aren’t articulate and now using this as the benchmark for rap music… [Wild],” one person wrote after seeing the placement of “SkeeYee.” Another Twitter user argued that, “They’re trying so hard t course correct they overshot.” Elsewhere, others pointed out that while the viral track is “probably the most played rap song of the year,” that still “doesn’t make it the best.”

Others named by Wenner and his staff on the list include Latto and Cardi B’s “Put It On Da Floor Again,” Ice Spice’s “Deli,” and Veeze’s “Not A Drill.” Multiple J. Cole features also got love, including “The Secret Recipe” with Lil Yachty and “First Person Shooter” from Drake’s For All The Dogs. Later on we hear from the Canadian again on “Who Told You” alongside J Hus, followed by Gunna’s “fukumean” and Doja Cat’s “Agora Hills.”

Sexyy Red’s “SkeeYee” Crowned Song Of The Year By “Rolling Stone,” She Responds

December 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Sexyy Red has been having a truly tremendous year in music. Overall, it all started with the song “Pound Town.” Furthermore, eventually, it went into the song “SkeeYee” and even “Hellcats SRTs.” These songs are all massive and they are making a huge splash in the clubs, cars, and even sporting events. We even crowned her as Hip-Hop’s MVP for 2023. The reason for this is quite simple. She has had the best year out of anyone in the entire genre. Which is an impressive feat considering the great year some artists have had.

Now that we are almost at the end of the year, numerous publications are putting out there songs and album lists. These lists are always highly-debated and it is rare that anyone comes to a consensus. However, Sexyy Red’s “SkeeYee” is a track that everyone can agree is a pure banger. With that said, it should come as very little surprise that a publication like Rolling Stone would give the song an honor. Just yesterday, they named the song as the best hip-hop track of the year. For some, this may be divisive. For others, it is the correct choice.

Sexyy Red Accepts The Crown

Okayyyy https://t.co/Bbz3ApX8Iw

— Sexyy Red (@SexyyRed314_) December 20, 2023

Subsequently, upon learning this news, Sexyy took to social media where she had a very simple message: “Okayyyy.” While many were trying to say that this is the downfall of hip-hop, others felt like this was a celebratory occasion. A relatively new artist got song of the year, and that should be celebrated. Quite frankly, Sexyy is proving that hip-hop is, indeed, in a good place. She is making fun music and she is unapologetically herself. That may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it is, in fact, resonating.

Let us know what you think of Rolling Stone and its choice, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will be sure to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming projects.

Texas Volleyball Gets Hyped To Sexyy Red Before Defending National Title

December 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The players on Texas’ women’s indoor volleyball team were caught getting hyped up to Sexyy Red’s “SkeeYee” after their national championship semifinal win over Wisconsin. The locker room video showed the assembled women going absolutely wild while singing along to one of the year’s biggest tracks. Released in June, “SkeeYee” became a cultural phenomenon despite only peaking at No. 62 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was also referenced by the Troy Trojans football program after they scored a rivalry game win earlier this year.

A day later and Texas were once against NCAA champions. They swept title favorites Nebraska 2-0 in the national championship to defend their title from 2022. Furthermore, the title is the Longhorns’ fourth overall. They are the first team to win back to back titles since Stanford did so in 2018 and 2019. Additionally, the Longhorns overcame the odds to beat a one-loss Nebraska team seeking its first title since 2017. The Longhorns were a four-loss team but powered through their bracket, dropping just two sets on their way to the title.

Nebraska Volleyball Sets New World Attendance Record

It’s been a historic year for women’s collegiate volleyball. On August 30, Nebraska broke the record for the biggest crowd at a women’s sports event. After months of preparation, the Huskers hosted a volleyball doubleheader on a specially constructed court at Memorial Stadium. The stadium typically serves as the home of the school’s football team. The official attendance was announced at 92,003, breaking the record set by a Women’s Champions League soccer match in April 2022. The previous US record was the 1999 Women’s World Cup Final between the USA and China.

“It’s incredible. I don’t have enough words to describe it,” Nebraska middle blocker Andi Jackson said. “We were walking out of the tunnel after the second set, and we heard on the speaker we had just broken the world record. Everyone was trying to stay locked in, but we were also so excited. I can’t describe how grateful I am to be a part of it.”

Stephen Curry Reacts To Shoutout On Sexyy Red’s “SkeeYee”

October 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Stephen Curry says he enjoyed hearing his shoutout on Sexyy Red’s Hood Hottest Princess single, “SkeeYee.” On the song, Sexyy raps: “My sister in the backseat with a .30/ N****s tryna shoot they shot, Stephen Curry.” The Golden State Warriors star discussed the track during an upcoming interview with VIBE.

“When Sexxy Red did it, I just started laughing,” he admitted to the outlet. “I don’t know. I had never seen her at a basketball game.” He continued: “One of my teammates were asking me the question, ‘How many times do you think your name’s been mentioned in the song?’ And I was like, ‘I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure there’s probably a website or something that could probably count it for you.’ So he went and looked it up and it was like 106 I think at the time, which was wild to me.”

“Then I started thinking about all the ones that I could remember and it’s either a nickname, like Drake did with ‘Chef Curry with the Pot,’ or I think Future dropped one in the song ‘Mad Max.’ And it’s funny to see how they rhyme it because either they do a nickname, the short name, they use number 30 or they just go with the whole full name and just try to write something,” Curry added. “Future did the whole full name Stephen Curry, which is hilarious because he is trying to rhyme it and flow with it. I don’t know, unfortunately, ‘somebody’s shooting something or sharp shooting‘ or whatever the case is… I almost kind of expect it now. They’re going to reference me at some point.”

Sexyy Red References Steph Curry On “SkeeYee”

“SkeeYee” has been one of the biggest hits of Sexyy Red’s career. Back in September, it became the first song to ever top the Billboard TikTok Top 50 chart. Be on the lookout for further updates on Sexyy Red on HotNewHipHop.

This link up speaks to how Sexyy Red remains among the most coveted artists in the current hip-hop scene.

Because of this, she gained more fans than ever and set a standard. While not everyone may resonate with her rap style, there’s no denying its growing popularity.

Moreover, Sexyy Red is taking advantage of being hot. Her latest link up with Kodak Black could mean a variety of different things. While the photo showcases the two rappers standing outside, this could mean that they’re fresh out of the studio, or heading into the studio. Either way, fans are anticipating a collaboration. However, one of Sexyy Red’s ways of garnering attention is by taking flicks with anyone she’s met for the first time or potentially working with. This is how you know she’s social media savvy.

Sexyy Red Reveals The True Meaning Of “SkeeYee”

September 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During a recent interview with Montreality, Sexyy Red gave the definition of one of her most popular songs and catchphrases, “SkeeYee.” The St. Louis-born performer revealed that the term is actually something that “Geeks,” or people addicted to drugs, will shout at someone they find attractive.

“‘SkeeYee.’ That’s when like, you see a cute girl or somebody with a big booty, or you’re tryin’ to holler at somebody,” she begins. “They call that the ‘geek call.’” Sexyy Red continues, “a geek is a crackhead, a dope fiend.” Luckily, curious fans now have a little more insight on the catchy song, and St. Louis slang. Elsewhere in the interview, she also revealed the most romantic gesture she’s ever received from a man. She described being swept off of her feet when a boyfriend robbed someone and gave her $13 he stole. She recalled knowing that he went out of his way to impress her. “It was just so sweet ’cause he was out of breath and stuff,” she shared.

Unfortunately, things haven’t been all fun and games for Sexyy Red as of late. Yesterday, someone opened fire near the location of her music video shoot for “Shake Yo Dreads.” According to reports, two people were shot, and one man was sadly killed. There had been some rumors that the shooting took place on her set, but Sexyy Red quickly cleared those up.

“I send my condolences to the family of the man who lost his life and prayers up for the person who was wounded,” she wrote. She went on to clarify that the shooting happened at a gas station across the street from her set. “We finished the shoot at a different location and everyone from our set went home safely. Period.” Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on Sexyy Red.

Sexyy Red Pulls Up To Jets Game With Stacks Of Cash

September 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Sexyy Red is someone whose star has been growing exponentially as of late. Overall, her album Hood Hottest Princess is one of the best of the year. Moreover, she has some huge singles such as “Pound Town” and “SkeeYee.” She has gotten co-signs from some massive artists, including Drake and Travis Scott. At this point, she can do no wrong. It’s been an impressive come-up for her, and on Monday night, she got to experience her very first NFL game.

If you remember, the New York Jets were playing the song “SkeeYee” during their practices for Hard Knocks. The team loved the track and word got back to Sexyy Red. Needless to say, it should come as no surprise that they decided to invite her out to the game. It was a huge game at that considering it was Aaron Rodgers’ first with the Jets. Unfortunately, it looks like he tore his Achilles. However, the team still won and we think Sexyy was definitely a good luck charm.

In the photos up above from her Instagram account, you can see her taking part in some sideline festivities prior to the game. Furthermore, she has her signature brick of cash in hand. It really feels like she doesn’t go anywhere without it. Whenever she was approached by Jets players, they did so with lots of reverence. It is clear that she is someone who is beloved by her fans and they respect her craft to the fullest. Being able to go to these games is a nice perk of all the recent success, which is well-deserved.

As for the Jets, well, their season might be over. Sure, they won the first game of the season, but they also have Zach Wilson. That puts them in a precarious position considering he isn’t very good. Hopefully, Rodgers is actually going to be okay, even if that seems extremely doubtful right now. Let us know your thoughts on Monday Night Football, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.
