Benny The Butcher & 38 Spesh Drop Coke Bars Galore On “High Stakes”

October 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Benny The Butcher and 38 Spesh are here with “High Stakes,” the third single from their forthcoming collab tape, STABBED & SHOT 2. This track features some classic coke bars from the frequent teammates, as they recount some of their most important deals. Based on the lyrics, they seemed to mold them into the rap stars we know them to be today. “Three bricks and my nephew four, they both a toddler age
I put a block of yay’ in a blender while he potty-train / I was good with one foot in like receivers in college games,” The Butcher raps.

Prior to “High Stakes,” Benny and 38 Spesh dropped off a nice two-pack for fans. “Jesus Arms” and “Brick Specials” were some fine additions to their joint catalog, with Busta Rhymes joining them for the former. STABBED & SHOT 2 will arrive next Friday, October 18. When it does, it will officially be the sequel to the original that graced our ears back in 2018. Other guests for the 16-track set will include V Don, ElCamino, Ransom, OT The Real, Daringer, Dave East, and more. For now, though, be sure to give “High Stakes” a spin with the new YouTube music video link below.

“High Stakes” – Benny The Butcher & 38 Spesh

Quotable Lyrics:

Let me show y’all what it’s like behind the stage
Because in rap, the pay cycle ninety days
Between that, the streets movin’, most likely, I’ll be paid
I need a brick and theme music from the likes of Isaac Hayes
Droppin’ pocket change for floor seats, the Lakers/Rockets game
Now we got a sports firm, look what a high became

EARTHGANG & T-Pain Pen A Catchy Relationship Cut With “Love You More”

October 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

On paper, Atlanta hip-hop duo EARTHGANG and T-Pain may not work out in some people’s eyes. However, if you really think about it, both acts are extremely versatile and can really fit anywhere you drop them in. Also, they have worked together now more than once, if you can believe that. Their first and most recent collaboration landed on Johnny Venus and Doctur Dot’s Mirrorland back in 2019. For those wanting to revisit that before checking out “Love You More,” it’s “Tequila.”

This track is actually leading things off for EARTHGANG, as it’s the first single from their next endeavor, PERFECT FANTASY. Unlike their last couple of releases (EPs), this will be a LP and fans aren’t going to have to wait too much longer for it. The Spillage Village affiliates announced the release date on their social media accounts at the top of October, saying, “PERFECT FANTASY ALBUM COMING 10/29 .” The album also looks to have its features laid out too, with Little Dragon, Snoop Dogg, Cochise, and Eric Bellinger being a few of them. “Love You More” is a pretty straightforward cute and sometimes raunchy pop/trap rap cut. T-Pain, one of the best chorus writers of this generation, does it again here with an earworm of a melody. Then, EARTHGANG tie it all together with some speedy verses about getting down with their special women.

“Love You More” – EARTHGANG, Spillage Village, & T-Pain

Quotable Lyrics:

I know this ain’t no competition (Yeah, yeah)
Tell me ’bout your day, I wanna listen (Yeah)
Hit the jackpot with you (Woah)
Throw these racks out with you (Woah)
Shot my shot, now I know I hit the score
Bae, I cannot love you more and more and more and more and more, more, more

Benny The Butcher & 38 Spesh Recruit Busta Rhymes For “Jesus Arms” Two Pack

October 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Benny The Butcher and 38 Spesh may have never been on the same label, but they sure do have an unbreakable connection. Their history spans several years, with countless grimy and hard-hitting collaborations. Sometimes, they come together with joint projects, and they have been doing that since 2008, if you can believe that. It all started with Cocaine Cowboys, released under T.C.F. Music Group. Typically, when you see that label, –run by Spesh– Benny’s Black Soprano Family, LLC is usually attached to their collab tapes.

What we are trying to say is that these two have another record coming out soon and it’s a sequel. On October 18, STABBED & SHOT 2 will hit DSPs over six years after the original Stabbed & Shot. This will just be another day at the office for Spesh and Butch, as both prolific MCs have multiple LPs out in 2024. For the former, this will bring his total to five, and three for the latter. To promote STABBED & SHOT 2, they are here with a two-pack featuring “Jesus Arms” and “Brick Specials”. The former features Busta Rhymes, who is one of nine different guests on this upcoming 16-song set. Check out the tracks with the links below.

“Jesus Arms” & “Brick Specials” – Benny The Butcher, 38 Spesh, & Busta Rhymes

Quotable Lyrics From “Jesus Arms”:

B****, we back to bang ’em with heat ’til somebody start to partially bleed
They blood’ll rain on the hoard, watch all the rest take heed
Always come to offer the cure with the best of the mead
Purer than the holy water that be blessin’ your seed
Higher than a hiker that’s climbin’ a mountain of weed
Blessed like it’s God in the flesh, you’re not in my league

OsamaSon Drops Heavily Teased Track “Ik What You Did Last Summer”

October 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

OsamaSon has developed a sound off the likes of Playboi Carti, Ken Carson, Young Thug, and a plethora of other artists in that similar vein. To make it a little more unique and off-the-wall, the South Carolina native incorporates a bit of underground elements. That comes in the form of the muddier and more unfinished qualities that are in the instrumentals he chooses. Overall, he’s pretty impressionable, but he is still building out his sound. After all, he’s only two years into this. He’s clearly making progress in some people’s eyes as well, because as of this year, he’s now an Atlantic Records signee. One of the tracks that OsamaSon has put out under his new label is “ik what you did last summer”.

In fact, this is his third offering in 2024, and it seems like there will be a project of some sort coming soon. Some unreviewed annotations on Genius are claiming that OsamaSon is working on jumpout. It’s supposedly his third mixtape and there is no release date or cover art available at the moment. What we can confirm is some of the details on “ik what you did last summer”. Leading up to its release just hours ago, OsamaSon had a handful of versions. Three files were discovered, however, one of them was previewed by the song’s producer, ok, on June 14, 2024. Ironically, this track uses the same beat as “California”, which is by Nettspend and is a frequent collaborator of Osama’s. In fact, he even shouts out Nett on the track. Hear “ik what you did last summer” with the link below.

“Ik What You Did Last Summer” – OsamaSon

Quotable Lyrics:

Somе bands for my mother (Yeah, beep, yeah)
New switch, then add another (Boop-boop-boop-boop-boop-boop)
I know I did that (Yeah)
Yeah, I know I did that (Beep, beep)
And I’m ridin’ in the six-pack (Skrrt, skrrt, skrrt)
I told lil’ Nett, “We gon’ spin back” (Yeah, beep)

Monaleo & Kaliii Put Toxic Men On Blast With “Flush Em”

September 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Throwing Bows might be the most spot-on title for a Monaleo project. Her rap style and bars exhibit similar actions that you would see in a boxing ring. Ironically, the cover for the aforementioned tape displays exactly that as she’s knocked out a man cold. Even crazier, is that Monaleo and Kaliii sound like they want to throw down with some toxic men for their girlfriends on their new single “Flush Em”.

This track comes just a week ahead of Throwing Bows, which will be her second LP of her still bubbling career. Where The Flowers Don’t Die, an 11-track, 28-minute-long effort was the last full-length-like effort we got and that came in May of 2023. “Flush Em”, which features production from Bankroll Got It, is the third offering, as it comes after “Passenger Princess” and “Don Who Leo”. While the flows are a bit clunky and do sound like Latto at times, what you can’t deny is the energy and mic presence from Monaleo. Give the track a try and tell us what you think in the comments below.

“Flush Em” – Monaleo & Kaliii

Quotable Lyrics:

No way you was suckin’ that d**k every night and puttin’ your hair in a bun (Thot)
No way you was puttin’ out, puttin’ out, puttin’ out, ain’t break the n**** for nothin’, dummy
What have I taught you, huh? (What?) Nice h**s comin’ in last (Let’s go)
Huh, why was you curvin’ a simp? (Yeah, yeah) You tellin’ the n**** he comin’ in fast (Uh-huh)
You chasin’ after a n**** that won’t even get out and pump your gas (What?)
You could not follow your friend, but said he be givin’ that n**** a pass, I’m on your a**, let’s go

Jordan Ward & Joony Kick Off Roll Out Of Joint Project With “Jealousy”

September 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Jordan Ward has actually been in the business for about seven years now. But really over the last two or so is where’s seen some growth in his audience. The St. Louis, Missouri singer’s 2023 is perhaps his breakout year, as he went on to release his second project FORWARD. Since it being out, tracks like “FAMJAM4000”, “WHITE CROCS”, and “CHERIMOYA” have turned out to be fan favorites. Ward has managed to stick out thanks to his vocal style that borrows some elements of the 90s to early 2000s. It’s buttery smooth and boyish but in a good way. He also went to drop the extended version later that year and in 2024, he’s kept things fairly lowkey.

However, it’s looking like he’s making a fill return and very soon. But he won’t be alone because rapper and frequent collaborator Joony, will be joining him. On October 4, these two laid-back artists will be dropping a joint effort called JRNY. That’s about all we know for now, on top of its new lead single. Jordan Ward and Joony’s “Jealousy” is all about wanting a more serious relationship with a major crush but not getting the same vibes back. It definitely has a relatable message and the melodies on this track are extremely potent to the ear. The beat is also very simple, but it plays a nice mellow backdrop to their equally chill yet pained deliveries.

“Jealousy” – Jordan Ward & Joony

Quotable Lyrics:

Built this on a friendship, but now there’s more to manage
So I keep a home here, somеwhere you can manage
Widе-body girl, and she came from Atlanta
You got n****s, I got b****es
Different cities but I want you
And yeah it’s overdue

DaBaby Leaves Off Two-Pack Of “Did It” & “Can’t Keep Keisha” Amid New Project Announcement

September 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

“Let’s gooo”, is what a lot of DaBaby fans have to be saying right now because he’s got a new tape on the way. Just several hours ago, the Cleveland born, Charlotte bred rapper made this big announcement on his Instagram account. “HOW TF IS THIS A MIXTAPE?” GOOD DOPE SELL ITSELF NEXT FRIDAY. 14 HITS.” A gift before the album Oh yea… “CAN’T KEEP KEISHA” out now bae. ”, DaBaby adds. “Threw another lil surprise out today too. LETS FLOOD. NEXT WEEK WE GO CRAZY ”.

What this essentially all means is that DaBaby is going to be dropping HOW TF IS THIS A MIXTAPE? next Friday, September 27. There’s going to be 14 new songs, with two of them out now. They include “Can’t Keep Keisha” and “Did It”. With this two-pack, you are getting some duality. On the former, you are getting some more introspective and personal bars about family and love. DaBaby also tries to sing some of the chorus, which comes across just as how you might expect. However, we can appreciate the delivery switch up. Then, on the latter, you’ll hear more traditional DaBaby which is that aggressive, Pit bull-like demeanor over a booming trap instrumental.

“Can’t Keep Keisha” / “Did It” – DaBaby

Quotable Lyrics From “Can’t Keep Keisha”:

I’ll give up everything I got just to get my brother back
If they with me and they standin’ on business, I’ll stand in front of that
That’s the type of man I am
I’ma keep on goin’ through hell and back to be a family man (N****)
You play with my family, you get whacked, I’ll shoot your cameraman (N****)
I’ve been around the world, I’m talkin’ from Hong Kong to Amsterdam (N****)

Rome Streetz & Daringer Preview Their Upcoming Collab Project With Hazy “Sage” Featuring ScHoolboy Q

September 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Rome Streetz is one the most stalwart undergrounders that we have going right now. You can always go to him for solid rhymes and bars, in addition to head-nodding East Coast hip-hop rhythms. Pretty soon, he will almost assuredly deliver one of those listening experiences again in just a few weeks. On October 4, him and veteran producer Daringer will be dropping their joint effort, Hatton Garden Holdup. Given that it’s named after a longstanding London jewelry store, we are expecting a luxurious tape. Part of that expectation comes from the lead single “Starbvxkz”.

The production has a glamorous feeling to it, thanks to its twinkling and soft piano melodies. It’s been making us float since we’ve heard it and “Sage” by Rome Streetz is having that similar effect. With his brags and hazy beat, you can easily lock in, close your eyes, and feel the vibes almost instantaneously. Here, we are also getting the first feature for the eventual release. ScHoolboy Q’s verse and drawn-out vocal delivery perfectly matches up with the mood. Overall, the track really does have a heady quality, and it may do it better than its predecessor. Fans can expect to have 13 songs, with features from Conway the Machine, Cormega, and Meyhem Lauren too. Give “Sage” a try with the YouTube link below.

“Sage” – Rome Streetz, Daringer, & ScHoolboy Q

Quotable Lyrics:

Never had to dream about gettin’ paid (Yeah)
The plan was to have a full plate (Yeah)
Was quarterbackin’, trappin’, runnin’ plays
Keep the eagles off me, baby, burnin’ sage (Yeah)
If they ask a question, tell me, “Yo no sé”
Fully committed with it, all the way (Yeah)

Kembe X Starts Another Roll Out With Release Of “DEATH & TAXXXES”

September 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kembe X is looking to go for a more laid-back and go-with-the-flow kind of energy for his next endeavor. On the California raised rapper’s X account he hinted at this very direction. “This project i’m rolling out is all fun music there’s little gems in there. But for the most part it is the sound of me LETTING GO & HAVING FUN”. Also he had another announcement to make. “DEATH & TAXXXES” TONIGHT”. This seems to be step two for this next project’s roll out, as the Illinois born artist already dropped the potential lead single back in late August. That would be “iNDIFFERENT” with the equally engaging Zelooperz. As of now, there doesn’t seem to be a release date or really anything else that’s known other than these two probable lead off tracks.

However, we can update on what Kembe X has been up to as of late. It’s been a little bit since we’ve covered new material as the last song we got to was “Rolling Stoned” with Isaiah Rashad and Hippie Sabotage. Since that November 2023 track, he went on to drop off “Shallow”, another collab with the latter, and feature for Yakiyn’s “TOP FLO” single. Furthermore, Kembe ended his five-year project drought with Sleep Paralysis back in mid-March. That was an entire combo deal with Hippie Sabotage which spanned 10 songs. Now, with that catching up out of the way, what is “DEATH & TAXXES” sounding like? It’s almost got a bit of Baby Keem to it with the way that Kembe is delivering his flows. They are a bit loopy and dizzying and the production switches up quite a bit for the track being just 1:50. See what he’s laying down with “DEATH & TAXXXES” down below.

Blu & Exile Promote Their Upcoming Collab Tape With “Gold” Featuring Nana & Ahmad Anwar

September 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Blu and Exile (Blu & Exile) are one of the most underrated hip-hop duos of all-time. When it comes to the underground scene in particular, we wouldn’t be mad if you had them ranked at number one. The Los Angeles, California kids just have that special recipe that no one else will truly be able to unearth or replicate. It’s rare when they miss a step and it’s why we are thrilled for their upcoming collaborative project, Love (the) Ominous World. According to a currently unreviewed annotation on Genius, they are expecting it to drop on September 20, so just a couple of weeks from now. We got our first taste of what appears to be a 12-song outing with “Love Is Blu”.

Frequent collaborator and singer/rapper Aloe Blacc appeared on it and as usual, the song bangs. It felt triumphant but it had some serious undertones to it thanks to the spirited and lyrically conscious performances. You normally don’t go to them for catchy tunes. But “Love Is Blu” also had that going for it too. The same rings true for “Gold”, the second single from Blu & Exile. The instrumental and melodies from Exile paired with the chorus give it tremendous replay value. Typically, when a song is sticky, it tends to not change up. However, Exile throws in some instrumental switch-ups to keep the listener engaged. Disc scratches, vocal samples, and ghostly and twinkly tones are things you’ll catch here and there. Overall, we think that him and Blu went two for two with “Gold”. However, we want to know what you think, so check it out below.
