Jermaine Dupri Takes A Backseat To Let Juicy J, Nelly, & Ashanti Shine On “This Lil’ Game We Play”

Back in late September the iconic producer from North Carolina, Jermaine Dupri, put out an R&B jam with Jacquees called “Pick It Up.” Fast forward to early January, Dupri essentially announced that this was going to be the lead single for an upcoming EP. “Yo, what’s up y’all. I’m in here trynna get this mix done, on my new record featuring Nelly, Ashanti, and Juicy J… It’s an EP [I’m putting out] on Mass Appeal.”

Dupri continues, “The first single was with me and Jacquees called “Pick It Up.” This gon’ be the second song. That’s what we on today.” We can officially say that the second teaser is out now.

Listen To “This Lil’ Game We Play” By Jermaine Dupri, Nelly, Ashanti, & Juicy J

It is another easy-breezy R&B track that sees each performer spitting game toward the opposite sex. Each artist is looking to keep their love interest around for some casual hangouts. This is an exciting collab for Nelly and Ashanti in particular. The reason why is because the last time they were on a song together was back in 2008. There is still no word on when Dupri will drop the EP, but you can check out “This Lil’ Game We Play” for the time being.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “This Lil’ Game We Play,” by Jermaine Dupri, Nelly, Juicy J, and Ashanti? Does this track get you excited for the upcoming EP?

Quotable Lyrics:

You the finest thang in the club, baby, all eyes on you
And I got a long-a** list (Uh-huh) of nasty s*** that I wanna try on you (Mo’ shot)
Don Julio (Ayy), a** so fat, I might lose composure (Come on)
Take you back to my penthouse (Yeah), see if you can squirt like a Super Soaker
Gon’ head, touch your toes, baby (Uh), maybe we can do a little roleplayin’ (Yeah)

For the lead single “Junior High,” Che, Evidence, and Droog are all recalling their past back when they were young. Besides the obvious attention to detail in the writing, the same applies to the production. It is extremely blissful with fantastic soulful vocal chops and a boom-bap instrumental. There is also a great incorporation of these weird sound effects. They sound cartoonish, but they add so much character and layering that just works. Check out the song with the YouTube link above.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new track, “Junior High,” by Che Noir, Evidence, and Your Old Droog? Is this one of the best singles of the year? Will this upcoming project, The Color Chocolate Vol. 1, be one of the best EPs of the year? Which rapper had the best performance here? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.

Joe Budden’s Criticism Is What Made Drake Drop “Scary Hours 3,” Fans Theorize

Drake’s upcoming EP Scary Hours 3, which drops tomorrow (Friday, November 17), has fans pretty excited. Even though he said that he’s taking a break from music after the release of For All The Dogs and his It’s All A Blur tour with 21 S*vage this year, it seems like this is potentially the last gas left in the tank for him in 2023. Of course, Drizzy could prove us wrong with some more drops or activity in the future, just as he did with his announcement of the Big As The What? tour with J. Cole. However, some fans believe that there’s a thorn in his side that is what actually compelled him to drop Scary Hours 3, and that’s Joe Budden.

Moreover, a lot of fans took to social media to “thank” the rapper for supposedly prompting Drake to put out more material. This is because Joe Budden’s criticism of For All The Dogs and its artist in general really rubbed the Toronto native the wrong way. Most likely, this idea centers around the OVO mogul wanting to prove the Slaughterhouse MC wrong with more solid bar-writing, straight-up hip-hop tracks, and probably a few subliminal or direct disses here and there. Other fans who subscribe to this theory, though, are just excited to see whether the former Everyday Struggle host rips into this project, too.

Fans Think Joe Budden Pressured Drake Into Dropping New Music

Of course, this is all purely speculative and probably just a meme or head-canon moment for most people. However, since Drake said that he wrote this material in a very raw way directly after For All The Dogs dropped, it’s clear that Joe Budden is a big story and moment in his recent life that will likely inform this collection of tracks. Even if this is just a joke or doesn’t turn out to be as obvious on Scary Hours 3, it’s going to be hard not to keep Budden in the back of your head while listening. Nevertheless, check out more hilarious reactions to this announcement and its proximity to the media personality down below.

More Fan Reactions

Meanwhile, the podcaster isn’t really looking forward to Scary Hours 3, and probably won’t be talking about it at all. Maybe some disses his way will have to change that, but it’s clear that he’s taking the high road on this one. So, are the fans right or is there going to be completely new or unrelated subject matter on this EP? Let us know your predictions in the comments and stick around on HNHH for more news and updates on Drake and Joe Budden.

Trippie Reveals All We Need To Know About New EP, “Saint Michael”

Trippie Redd has developed quite the following over his fairly long career. He won over many with his blends of trap and emo rap. This led him to tons of commercial and some critical acclaim. His A Love Letter To You series is is halo series of albums that have provided us with plenty of classic tracks over time. Unfortunately, Trippie decided to close the book on it just a few months ago with the fifth installment. He confirmed this in a message to his fans.

A Love Letter To You 5 is gonna be, if not the best body of music I’ve ever did, one of them. For sure. This is the last one.” He continued, “This the last A Love Letter to You so… I done put my all into it. I’ve been working on this for like, three to four years. Dropping projects, but still having music tucked to the side for this project.” While this was heartbreaking news, this certainly did not mean the end of the road for Trippie by any means.

The Alchemist And Action Bronson Are A Fun Pair On “Vertigo” From “Flying High 2”

The Alchemist is one of the busiest producers of 2023. In fact, he may just be the most active one this year. It all began in the middle of February with a single featuring Larry June, “60 Days.” That turned out to be the lead track off of their collaborative record, The Great Escape. From that point on, there was no slowing down for Uncle Al. A couple of months later, he and Domo Genesis got together for No Idols. Additionally, others like Roc Marciano, MIKE and Wiki, as well as Earl Sweatshirt all got to work on their respective efforts with him too.

But, before those tapes, he put out a solo EP, Flying High at the end of June. The Alchemist grabbed Earl for that as well, including billy woods, Boldy James, and more for the four tracks to go along with instrumental versions. Now, he is getting ready for his seventh project. It will be the sequel to Flying High. Supposedly dropping at midnight tonight, November 3, the format will remain the same. However, this time there will be five songs and their accompanying instrumentals.
