Aside from huge new arrivals from names like DJ Khaled and J.I.D – who delivered GOD DID and The Forever Story respectively – this New Music Friday we’ve also received a project from Real Boston Richey, called Public Housing. 

For the 17-track effort, Richey connected with a few rap icons, including Kodak Black and Lil Crix on “Navy Seals,” Moneybagg Yo on “Certified Dripper 2,” and Lil Durk on “Keep Dissing 2” – and that’s not all.

The rising artist also nabbed two appearances from I NEVER LIKED YOU artist Future, firstly on “I Want You,” and later on “Bullseye 2,” which we’re spotlighting for you today.

“Servin’ crystal falls, just like the haves and the have not / All that f*ckin’ wood and oxy get ya ass slimed out,” RBR raps on the chorus. “Pull up in a Benz, she say that she wanna know me now / F*ck it, spin a bend / Pop his ass and call it bullseye.”

Quotable Lyrics:

Bubba chain a hundred thousand
Ran it up in public housing
N*ggas pussy, Ronda Rousey
F*ck with me, don’t f*ck without me

Berner is one of the most prolific rappers in the game but he’s also one of the most important figures in the cannabis industry. Over the years, he’s grown Cookies into an internationally recognized brand that is found on shelves across legal markets in the world. Though you could imagine owning a cannabis brand like Cookies would take up a significant amount of his time, he’s still working relentlessly in the studio. However, both of his jobs overlap quite frequently.

On his new single, “Elon,” Berner delivers a smoke-friendly anthem with spacey production that details his plans to expand the Cookies brand. He asks for the plug to Elon so he could send some seeds to mars with hopes that he can expand the Cookies brand.

Check the record out below.

Quotable Lyrics
We like top-notch bitches, five-star dishes
OT plays ’cause Cali been vicious
And I’m higher than the gas price
Might take a dab if the hash right 

Just a few months after Chief Keef shared the exciting news that Atlanta’s Lil Gnar would be the first signee of his 43B record label, the duo have dropped off the former’s inaugural track, “Almighty Gnar.” 

Keef starts things off over the Shawn Ferrari and Akachi-produced beat, referencing his Chicago roots with, “We ready if the opps think they can smoke me / These bitches dirty / Where I’m from, you get a pistol for dirty cheap / A McFlurry.”

When Gnar takes over, he pays homage to his label head and collaborator, rapping, “I feel like I’m Chief Keef in 2012 / All these bitches say they love me, I pour Wocky by myself / I just want some sloppy, told the thotty keep her pants on / Gave my youngin 20, told him slide with the shiest’ on.”

If you’re loving Lil Gnar’s new music, you can catch upcoming performances from the 26-year-old with CK in Phoenix on September 9th, or at his set during Rolling Loud New York on September 24th.

Quotable Lyrics: 

Blicky hit his chin like monkeypox, it get messy
I get work from Mexico, I’m plugged in with the ese
Caught that boy slippin’ with the lead like an Xray
Got your bitch squirtin’ while she ridin’ like a jetski

Top Dawg Entertainment’s rising stars are taking us to the “Dawg House” this weekend.

On Friday (August 26), “You Don’t Even Care You Hurt Me” artist Ray Vaughn returned with his first single since the arrival of “Mannequin” in June. For the new release, Vaughn recruited labelmate, Isaiah Rashad, to rap alongside him over a Rory Behr-produced beat.

“Bubblegum, bubblegum in a dish / How many bitches do you get?” they ponder about halfway through the under two-minute-long song. “Her she can’t get no kiss / I’m a Top Dawg, ho, I’m with a slim Mike Vick.”

Other standout lyrics include “Loose better not shoot no shame / My sixteens was pure cocaine,” and “Walk out the crib outfit on all shit  / Would pull the switch if I ain’t in by six / Even DJ’s ain’t spinnin’ like this / Got it out the mud, bitch, I’m a crawfish.”

Quotable Lyrics:

Earlier this summer, fans of 30-year-old IDK were more than pleased with his collaborative Simple album with Kaytranada. Before the season ends, the rapper and producer has returned with more music in the form of a two-pack called W13. 

On the first title, “Drive,” the recording artist professes his feelings for the one he adores over a jazzy beat. “For your love, I’ll take my time / For your kiss, I’ll risk what’s mine,” IDK sings.

“Free Slime” focuses more on themes of freedom manifesting in the real world – particularly in the tough times of our current world. “Gotta live it up cuz I might die today / Everyday vacation I’m on holiday,” the boundary-pushing artist reflects.

While he’s been showing out with the steady new releases this summer, IDK has made it clear in the past that he doesn’t compare himself to his contemporaries. “I’m in competition with myself and only me. And I’m whooping my ass every time,” he shared in a press release.

Quotable Lyrics:

Sippin’ on that pink, ain’t got no belly ache
Hit a n*gga up and then we celebrate
Make him close his eyes, I’ll make them meditate
All while dodgin’ the subpoena, can’t get no subpoena

Premiere Dreamville artist and Atlanta native J.I.D. is back today with The Forever Story, his third studio album and his first solo project since 2018. The 15-track album is loaded with incredible features from rising artists like Kenny Mason and Baby Tate, Dreamville acts like Ari Lennox and EarthGang, and music industry veterans like Lil Wayne and Johntá Austin.

One song in particular that boasts a great guest appearance from one of Hip-Hop’s most respected legends is “Stars,” a two-part gem near the end of The Forever Story that features none other than Yasiin Bey.

The first half of the track finds J.I.D. reminiscing on his come-up as an aspiring rapper when his bleak financial situation led to him leaning on a girl for housing and moral support. After the song’s narrator prefaces that listeners will be treated to “a word from our ancestors,” the beat switches to a more grimy instrumental, and that’s when Yasiin Bey takes over for a standalone verse.

Check out the visualizer for “Stars” below and let us know in the comments what you think about the Yasiin Bey-assisted track. Also, make sure you give J.I.D’s The Forever Story a spin here.

Quotable Lyrics

Gotta know the difference in the stars and the gimmicks
Are you really in it for the arts or the image?
Do you really live it in your heart and spirit?
It’s part of all you are, and all you isn’t
Trust your vision

Ever since coming onto the scene a few years ago with “Ransom,” Lil Tecca has proven himself to be one of the most consistently catchy artists in the hip-hop world. He is always coming through with some great songs that contain easy-to-remember melodies and some tongue-in-cheek lyrics. Two weeks ago, Tecca came through with a track called “Faster,” and now, he is back with a follow-up dubbed “Treesha.”

This song has some bouncy trap production that keeps things light and catchy. Tecca delivers one of his signature vocal performances all while dropping some braggadocios lyrics about his money and the girl he’s with. Overall, it is yet another solid effort that is worth checking out.
