Tyga Calls On Chris Brown On “Nasty”

by

Chris Brown and Tyga are keeping the winter season hot with a brand-new single. The two artists reconnected for their new single, “Nasty,” which, as the title suggests, is a bedroom banger. MANMAN and Murphy Kid join forces for the production, merging a West Coast bounce with R&B’s smoothness for an undeniable bop. At the same time, Tyga leans closer toward Breezy’s melodious styling on this one for an infectious smash record.

“Nasty” is the latest single that extends Chris Brown and Tyga’s collaborative partnership. Over the years, they’ve certainly earned a reputation for creating magic on wax, beginning with the Fan Of A Fan mixtape. As soon as it dropped, the 2010 effort produced hit records like “Deuces” and “No Bullshit.”

Five years later, the two reconnected for Fan Of A Fan: The Album. This time, they connected with a slew of artists that helped emphasize the gangsta rap inspiration behind the project. ScHoolboy Q, Boosie Badazz, 50 Cent, Pusha T, T.I., and Fat Trel appeared in the project. Upon its release, the album debuted in the top 10 on the Billboard 200.

Besides their recent collab, the two have had extremely productive years. Chris Brown blessed fans with his tenth studio album, Breezy, and hit the road alongside Lil Baby for the “One Of Them Ones” tour. Additionally, he dropped a re-release of the project including his holiday singles, “It’s Giving Christmas” and “No Time Like Christmas.”

Though Tyga hasn’t released a project since 2019’s Legendary, he’s continued to deliver a streak of smash records, like “Booty Dancer,” “Fantastic,” and the Jhené Aiko and Pop Smoke-assisted, “Sunshine.”

Check out their new collaboration below and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.

Quotable Lyrics
You should get freaky for me
Throw it in reverse, make it easy for me
Show a little skin, got you leakin’ for me
Make it easy for me

Morray Returns With Deeply Personal Single “Da Rant”

by

Morray has been making big moves ever since he blew up with the track “Quicksand.” The North Carolina artist was noticed by the likes of J. Cole, which then opened him up to a whole new fanbase. He was able to capitalize on this newfound fame with a debut mixtape called Street Sermons. Since that time, he has been working on his craft, waiting to make his next move.

In 2023, his debut album will arrive, and it is sure to be an impressive project. He has continued to receive mentorship from Cole, and overall, he seems confident in his latest work. Consequently, he is beginning to rollout some singles, including his latest which was released this week.

Morray Drops “Da Rant”

This latest single is simply called “Da Rant,” and it is perhaps his most personal track yet. Although Morray has always included personal stories in his music, this latest track is on a whole new level. From start to finish, he goes deep into his past as he describes the people he associated with and the things he saw. Overall, it makes for a compelling listen, and the bars speak to Morray’s growth as an artist.

Furthermore, the production is also a demonstration of how Morray has matured. The beat here is much more progressive than what he typically raps over as there are some unique shifts throughout. There is a certain tone here that speaks to the gravity of what he’s rapping about, and it all comes together beautifully.

Let us know what you think of this new track, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Quotable Lyrics:

Dyin’ for your gang, who told you posse up?
Choosin’ death for one’s beliefs, yeah, bitch, that’s probably us
But on that fuckin’ dyin’ part, man, that’s where I’m kinda stuck
‘Cause n***a, it’s your time to go, why the fuck you keep on sayin’ us?

Central Cee Closes Out A Hot Year With New Single “Let Go”

by

Central Cee’s made his mark across American in 2022. From the release of his sophomore project, 23 to the viral success of “Doja,” the British rapper left a mark on the year and will undoubtedly have a grip on 2023.

Just a few weeks ago, the rapper previewed new music on TikTok that ultimately went viral. The rapper sampled the Passenger’s “Let Me Go” for the record while adding his own spin to it. Fans quickly ate up the snippet, transforming the short preview into a TikTok hit.

Today, the rapper unloaded the single in its entirety before we enter the official of holiday season. KwolleM and Nastylgia transform the 2012 hit record into velvety drill banger that delves into Cee’s vulnerability. With heartbreak and mistrust in his mind, Central Cee showcases his versatility across the new single. This time, he puts less of an emphasis on cut-throat bars and brings forth a more melodic style that his day-one fans will find nostalgic value in. Cee is clearly about to do something big in the future, and the release of “LET GO” signals huge plays for 2023.

The rapper’s latest single arrives a little less than two months after releasing, NO MORE LEAKS. Central Cee delivered the four-song pack after a breach of his vault when hackers leaked several records online. In response, he blessed fans with the project which includes the single, “One Up.”

We’re excited to hear what Central Cee has up his sleeves in the new year. In the meantime, press play on “LET GO” below and sound off with your thoughts on his new single in the comments.

Check out Central Cee’s Digital Cover story with HotNewHipHop here.

Quotable Lyrics
This girl make me question love
This girl make me feel like less of a man ’cause I’m feelin’ depressed and stuff
Can’t believe I was willing to drop everyone and invest in us
The last time that we fucked was fucked, the way you got up, got dressed and cut

Latto Is Back With “Another Nasty Song”

by

Throughout her career, Latto has built herself something of a reputation for making salacious songs. Like many other female rap divas, she’s not afraid to let her confidence shine through as she talks her shit. Of course, this sort of attitude comes with its share of haters, but the 23-year-old isn’t letting them phase her.

On her aptly titled new single, “Another Nasty Song,” the “Sunshine” artist dishes about some of her bedroom preferences. “‘Cause this here another nasty song / He love it when I pull up wit’ no panties on,” she saucily teases on the chorus.

Other bold lyrics from the rising recording artist include “Gangster bitch, I make him wear my chain whilе he drillin’ / And me and my bitch might run a train on this n*gga.”

The sexy single comes following a massive leak that Latto’s unreleased music was a part of. Hundreds of tracks that she had locked and loaded in her arsenal were sadly shared with the world without her permission, though they’ve made their admiration of certain titles very clear.

Latto heard her fan’s praise loud and clear and was quick to officially unveil “Another Nasty Song” with them as a result.

After sharing her own 777 album back in March, the reality star has had an impressive 2022. Most recently, we saw her work with GloRilla on “FTCU” and on Chlöe’s “For The Night” single.

Stream Latto’s “Another Nasty Song” on Spotify or Apple Music below. Afterward, let us know what your thoughts are in the comments.

Quotable Lyrics:

Pull up on my pimpin’, say my name while you in it
Type of p*ssy make him say my name while hе swimmin’
Gangster bitch, I make him wear my chain whilе he drillin’
And me and my bitch might run a train on this n*gga

Birdman & Juvenile Represent On “Ali”

by

Birdman and Juvenile reconnected this week to deliver some new heat paying homage to one of the greatest boxers of all time. The Cash Money co-founder and the Hot Boy alumni joined forces for their new song, “Ali.” The record serves as a tribute to Muhammad Ali as Birdman and Juvenile compare their greatness to the late boxer. The smooth production — handled by D-Roc and twoprxducers — and melodious vocal performance make for an excellent return for J.A.G. In the video, they bring fans back to NOLA while also reflecting on humble beginnings and overcoming adversity. “Ali” is truly a motivational single that captures the excellent chemistry between Birdman and Juvenile after all these years.

Birdman and Juvenile joined forces as J.A.G in 2019 for their joint project, Just Another Gangsta. The collaborative outing contained 12 songs in total with a sole feature coming from NLE Choppa. Hopefully, a new project from the two arrives sooner rather than later.

Birdman hasn’t necessarily released a ton of music but he has delivered a handful of collabs. He teamed up with Quavo and Takeoff on “Big Stunna” off of Only Built For Infinity Links. Prior to that, he assisted rising Louisiana rapper Rob49 on “Hustler’s Anthem V2.”

Though Juvenile hasn’t released a ton of music in recent years, he did inspire one of the biggest artists of 2021. NBA Youngboy paid tribute to Juvenile’s 400 Degreez album art with the artwork for 3800 Degrees.

Hopefully, new music from J.A.G comes soon. We’re also hopeful that Juvenile will deliver even more solo music in 2023.

Check the single below.

Quotable Lyrics
N***a be begging, ain’t no limit to what n***as ask
We open gate, it ain’t no flood, we will pay it back
We get it back, little one fried, we’ll pay it back
She want me buy the crib, n***a, so I did that

The Weeknd Debuts “Nothing Is Lost (You Give Me Strength)” From “Avatar 2”

by

Disney’s preparing the release of Avatar 2: The Way Of The Water. Ahead of its release, The Weeknd released the first single from the soundtrack.

The new song initially appeared in the teaser for the movie earlier this month on The Weeknd’s page. Swedish House Mafia and composer, Simon Franglen, who scored the film, co-produce The Weeknd’s new single for Avatar 2.

Jon Landau, Avatar 2: Way Of The Water producer, explained how the song came together. It began after Landau met The Weeknd during the After Hours til Dawn Tour this summer.

“When he came in, Swedish House Mafia came up with the concept of the song, and they embraced working with our composer, Simon Franglen. And together, they came up with a song that is true to who The Weeknd is but is organic to our film,” Landau told Complex. “And that’s what was important to us. We didn’t want just something to come on at the end of the movie that felt outside of it, but he embraced that collaboration, and his voice, oh my God.”

The Weeknd is coming off of an incredibly strong year. At the top of 2022, he released his new album, Dawn FM — an undeniably solid body of work. Since then, he hit the road in support of his latest project. As a result of his charitable efforts, the 2022 CMW Allan Slaight Humaniratian Spirit Award was awarded to The Weeknd. The Canadian singer’s latest honor recognized his philanthropic efforts.

“That this is a Canadian award sits deep with me,” he said. “Allan and The Slaight Family Foundation are known across the country for their generous philanthropy, and it means a lot to be acknowledged, and is an honour to be recognized along with the legendary Canadian artists who received this award before me.”

Check out The Weeknd’s new song for Avatar 2 below.

Quotable Lyrics
If I die, if I stay, give me strength
I’m with you either way
Nothing’s lost, no more pain

French Montana Delivers World Cup Anthem For Morocco

by

French Montana has a whole lot of pride when it comes to his home country of Morocco. French has been able to showcase this pride throughout Morocco’s historic run at the World Cup. Last weekend, Morocco became the first African nation to make it to the semi-finals at the World Cup.

However, the team’s run ultimately came to an end yesterday as they lost to France, 2-0. Overall, it was still an amazing tournament for Morocco. They showed the entire world that they can be a soccer powerhouse. Consequently, they have gained the respect of teams like France, Spain, Portugal, and many others.

French Montana Drops “Morocco”

Prior to Wednesday’s match, French was certainly feeling the excitement of the game. In fact, he even dropped a brand new song to commemorate his team’s run. Appropriately, the track is called “Morocco” and it features a change-up in style for the artist.

As you will immediately hear, this track features a dance beat. This is meant to be a nod to Morocco’s musical influence on French, and overall, it is a nice change of pace. Furthermore, French can be heard rapping in perfect Arabic. It is a great nod to his home country, and you can tell there was a ton of pride in his voice while making this song.

You may remember that French Montana had led a celebration in Times Square following the team’s win against Portugal. It was a momentous occasion for the country, and French wanted to be front and center with his fellow countrymen. While 2022 was not their year, Morocco will certainly be on track for another big showing in 2026.

In our upcoming interview with Jacquees for our 12 Days of Christmas series, the singer spoke about Sincerely For You and what fans can expect.

“It’s all grown-man vibes. I’m 28 years old now,” he told HNHH exclusively. “So, the conversations are just different for everything, for me. Even the lifestyle.”

“You know, you get older, you know, you stop doing a lot of the things that you was doing before,” he continued. “I feel like that’s kind of how I did it with my lifestyle and my music. And I believe that through records, you’ll be able to tell the growth into maturity.”

Quotable Lyrics

I know I f*cked up, you caught me lyin’ too many times before
Took me back, I did it more
I was convinced, you was gettin’ naked and hit
By another n*gga, yeah, I was sick
I’m a player but I gotta admit
Yeah, you hurt me, but I know it ain’t as bad as I hurt you
