Big Sean Previews Upcoming Kanye West Track & Announces New Music Is Coming Soon

July 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It seems like 2024 is the year for Big Sean’s comeback. Since the first of the year, the Detroit MC has been steadily working on getting back into album mode. In March, he put out “Precision”, a fiery track that got people remembering how formidable of a spitter and performer he is. Then, just several months later, he assisted his hometown hero Eminem on the second single for The Death of Slim Shady, “Tobey”. He also went toe-to-toe with his fellow co-star BabyTron, and that song has also been well received. Additionally, Sean has teased his untitled forthcoming album throughout the year. Most recently, he shared a collaboration with The Alchemist via Instagram.

Big Sean was spotted on his page again recently, according to HipHopDX, previewing another upcoming track. He did so through a Live Story and the track, “Fighting Fires”, is a new effort with Kanye West. Like the title indirectly suggests, it is straight heat, as it sees Sean passionately and relentlessly spitting about taking over your life and improving as a person every day. “We in this b****, back focused, right? / F*** that overnight success, I want it over life / I’m overseeing what I’m seeing, f*** a oversight“.

Throughout his chat with his fans, the Detroit 2 MC revealed that this Kanye-produced song has potential to be on the highly awaited, VULTURES 2. If that is the case, then that is extremely unfortunate because who knows when that is coming out. However, there is a slim chance it sees a release this week. Right before the end of the Live, he told the viewers that new music is coming sometime in the next couple of days. Furthermore, Sean divulged on how difficult it has been crafting this new album. He cited overthinking, being away from his child with Jhene Aiko, and his battle with alcoholism. But, with him “raw-dogging” his emotions, he feels that he is going to be showing fans all sorts of sides to him in the future.

What are your thoughts on this upcoming Big Sean and Kanye West collaboration, “Fighting Fires”? If this drops, will this be their best song together ever? Do you want this to be on Sean’s new album, or Vultures 2 and why? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Kanye West and Big Sean. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Travis Scott Hypes Up His Next Album: “I Gotta Kick Into A New Gear They Think It’s Play Time”

February 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott’s new album UTOPIA had fans juiced to hear him again after a near five-year hiatus. All that time amounted to him experimenting with his signature psychedelic sound to many rave reviews from fans and a fair number of critics. He went on to sell hundreds of thousands of copies, merch, and put on a successful Circus Maximus Tour without any hitches. Songs like ” I KNOW ?,” “FE!N,” “TELEKINESIS,” and others are still burning for fans about seven months later. However, after all those incredible accomplishments, it still was not enough for Travis to nab his first GRAMMY award. UTOPIA would go on to lose Best Rap Album to Killer Mike’s MICHAEL in a crushing but respectable fashion.

Even before that source of motivation to bring something even better, Travis had already begun working on new music. During his stops across the U.S., the Houston multi-hyphenate shared photos of him recording backstage. “B4 every show,” “Boston im trynna record back here,” and “R u in my brain or what ????” Those were the few indications we got from him about a new album in the works.

Travis Scott Is Hungry To Get Back At It

Now, we have more coming from La Flame by way of IG Stories. Just hours ago, Scott said, “I love music so f*****g much. And for the record. We will [be] backkkkkk. I gotta kick [into] a new gear since they think it’s play time.” He also added, “Whole cactus gang are snappers.” Could this be a hint at a JACKBOYS 2 tape? Trav did follow up the latter of messages with him vibing to “You” off Don Toliver’s Life of a DON. That is as much as we know right now, but hopefully we get that exciting confirmation of a new LP for this year sometime soon.

What are your thoughts on Travis Scott’s Instagram Story teasing his next album? Do you think he will drop it this year? What tape would you want first and why? Is UTOPIA still in your rotation and if so which tracks? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Young Nudy Reveals Crazy Metro Boomin Track, Producer Hints At Collaboration Project In The Works

January 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Over the years, Metro Boomin has built a strong rapport with so many rappers. His most successful ones are with Future, 21 Savage, and Travis Scott. One of his more underrated teammates is Young Nudy. The Atlanta, Georgia native had a nice 2023 with the release of his solo studio album Gumbo. That featured the viral hit song “Peaches & Eggplants.” It got so big in fact, that he decided to bring the hype up even higher with a remix. Nudy did this by bringing on two of the hottest female MCs in the game, Latto and Sexyy Red.

For 2024, he is looking to build on that success with some music with Metro. Their most recent effort landed on the wildly popular HEROES & VILLAINS tape from the end of 2022. “Umbrella” with 21 Savage was one of the darkest tracks on the record. It featured killer piano keys and relentless flows from the related rappers. With that feather in the cap of both Metro and Nudy, a new one might need to be added.

Nudy Is Helping Metro Gear Up For A Bigger 2024

The “EA” rapper hopped on Instagram Live to share a preview of an upcoming single. From what we can hear it sounds sinister. There are sharp string sections and a soulful sample that kick the track off. Then, the new “Metro!” tag comes in and the beat drops abruptly but beautifully and hits hard. Metro reposted the clip to his IG story and captioned it saying, “Too early in the year to start talking bout the Nudy tape yet [zipped shut mouth emoji fire emoji].” This a loose announcement, but on top of the the Future and JID tapes, Nudy is getting one too at some point.

What are your thoughts on Metro Boomin and Young Nudy’s upcoming collaboration? Will this project drop this year, or sometime next year? Where would you rank him and Nudy together amongst the rest of the Metro duos? Does this have the potential to be one of the best trap songs of the year? 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.

Latto has been shaking up the hip-hop world ever since she stepped foot in the genre a few years ago. Furthermore, when you have a widespread fan base and have the hits under your belt like she does, fans are going to want more.

She was a part of some major collaborations with artists like Mike WiLL Made-It, Swae Lee, Jung Kook, Young Nudy, Sexyy Red, Jay Rock, and so many more.

The team-up with Jung on “Seven” became the fastest song to reach one billion streams ever. It took just three and half months to pass that mark, making it a truly remarkable feat. In terms of solo material, Latto delivered “Put It On Da Floor” and its sequel with Cardi B and “ISSA PARTY” featuring BabyDrill. It will be tough to top all of that success, but Latto is looking to go for it all in 2024.

Andre 3000 Appreciates Jay-Z And Beyonce For Clearing A Song On “New Blue Sun”

November 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Andre 3000 is making his return to his solo career. Albeit, it is an instrumental album that will feature his skills with various instruments. New Blue Sun drops tomorrow, November 17, and because it is not a rap album, a lot of fans were majorly disappointed. While it is unfortunate, to see Andre return after 17 years from his last album with Big Boi, Idlewild, it is still an exciting time for hip-hop. One of the G.O.A.Ts is back! Let us celebrate and be thankful!

The all-time great artist explained that he is still open to dropping a true hip-hop album. However, it needs to make sense for him to do it. “There’s this misconception that I just won’t do it. I think people feel like I’m sitting around on rap albums, or sitting around and I’m just not putting them out in that way. And no it’s not like that.” Hopefully, that happens one day. We already have some details, including the tracklist. It is safe to say the titles are insanely complex. Believe it or not, he needed clearance for one.

Andre 3000 Shows Love To Beyonce And Jay-Z

A post shared by NPR Music (@nprmusic)

According to HipHopDX, Andre revealed to NPR Music that “Ninety-Three ‘Til Infinity And Beyoncé,” required him to call Beyonce and Jay-Z. Fortunately, they were kind to let him use it and he was extremely thankful for it. He says it references one of his favorite groups growing up, Souls of Mischief. They had a song called “93 ’til Infinity.” He incorporated that along with Buzz Lightyear’s famous quote from Toy Story, “To infinity and beyond!” He wanted to include Beyonce, maybe to celebrate her and Jay’s long-lasting relationship. Andre shouted out Bey and Jay. “And thank you, Beyoncé, for letting me use the name!” “And thanks Jay!” The multi-talent continues, “I’m just happy they let me use it so thank y’all. I really appreciate that.”

What are your initial thoughts on Andre 3000 getting clearance from Jay-Z and Beyonce for a song on New Blue Sun? Do you think this will be the best track on the album? Has it sunken in yet that Andre will not be rapping on this LP? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.

Cardi B Hints At Dropping New Music Before The End Of The Year: “I Feel Like I Gotta Talk My S*** A Little Bit”

November 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

2018 was Cardi B’s coming-out party. Her debut album, Invasion of Privacy, was a commercial and critical success. Winning Best Rap Album at the 61st GRAMMYs over records like ASTROWORLD, Swimming, Daytona, and Victory Lap, was a massive upset pick. Most bashed the voters for picking this over what are considered to be four classic records. However, Cardi’s tape was so massive in terms of the numbers. There were tons of radio hits on it like “I Like It,” Bartier Cardi,” and “Bodak Yellow.”

However, after that, things began to slow down a bit for the New Yorker. Her singles, while still doing streaming numbers, were a bit lackluster to many. Easily, the most memorable of the ones after Invasion was “WAP” with Megan Thee Stallion. Even that song faced a lot of criticism for its ridiculousness. Cardi might not be as in-demand as she was a couple of years ago, but she might be coming back with a vengeance. For some people, it might be cause her biggest competition is nearing the release of her new album.

Cardi B Teases Her Fans

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

Nicki Minaj’s eagerly-awaited Pink Friday 2, is supposedly dropping on her birthday, December 8. The masses are excited for that record, but Cardi feels that she has been slighted. She expressed this in the video above, hinting that new music might be out before 2023 comes to a close. Cardi seems to be debating with herself if she wants to drop anything, however, a statement toward the end of the audio clip was very telling. “I feel like I gotta talk my s*** a little bit.” That could mean anything and some feel it is because of the Queen. It could also be a reference to the fans on Twitter dragging her for her “low work ethic.” It will be something to watch unfold over the next couple of weeks for sure.

What are your initial thoughts on Cardi B saying she is thinking about dropping music before the end of the year? Are you wanting to hear what she has in the vault? Do you agree with the fans that she is only doing this because of her rival, Nicki Minaj? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.
