Drake Reveals He’s Dropping A “For All The Dogs” Single This Week

September 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Weeks passed by, the album cover dropped, its star kept performing, and fans were still left salivating For All The Dogs. However, we found out recently that the wait will soon be over, as Drake’s next album will drop next Friday (September 22). Not only that, but during a recent show in Austin, Texas for his It’s All A Blur tour with 21 S*vage, the OVO star revealed that he will release a single from the project this Friday (September 15). As such, it seems like we’ll finally get a chance to listen to what he has in store for fans with his second album in the past year.

“I’m even going to say something tonight in Austin, Texas I haven’t said yet,” Drake began. “I know y’all excited to hear the album. I know it’s, like two weeks out. I’ma drop a song for y’all this week. Yeah, yeah. What a time, what a time. I appreciate y’all. Deeply, by the way, I do. It’s a lot of love in Texas.” Of course, the crowd reacted with wild cheers.

What’s more is that fans started to speculate on what this new single will be: a solo cut, a banger, a ballad… or a collaboration, perhaps? As far as confirmed features on For All The Dogs, we know from Drake’s own words that Bad Bunny and Nicki Minaj will appear as guests. Other features are just speculation, although the Toronto rapper recently hinted at a possible guest on his Instagram Story. By posting a picture of him as Yeat, fans once again flooded social media with assumptions that a team-up on wax is soon to come.

Meanwhile, it’s great to hear that we’ll get at least a taste of this new phase for Drizzy, and we’ll see how new it is compared to his previous work. Apparently, it will be a return to his earlier styles, but there are plenty of signs pointing otherwise. If nothing else, this is one of the most quick but exciting album rollouts to come this year. With that in mind, log back into HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Drake.

Megan Thee Stallion Dances In Style, Excitedly Teases Cardi B Collab Single’s Release

September 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Everyone’s anticipating the release of Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s (semi) musical return with “BONGOS,” whether you’re excited for it or not. The track absolutely took over social media without even coming out yet, and ahead of its Friday (September 8) release date, many wonder how it’ll shape up. Are we getting another “WAP”-style hit from the femcees or something else entirely? After all, it’s been a while since Megan dropped new material, and it seems like she’s really looking forward to it. Moreover, she posted a video on Instagram of her dancing excitedly while doing her makeup and hair with the caption “Good Morninggg! BONGOS OUT AT MIDNIGHT.”

Of course, the Texas MC is just as excited as the Bronx spitter, who recently joked about making “BONGOS” scratch-and-sniff CDs. Not only that, but she was also left speechless when asked whether Beyoncé is going to be on her next album. Considering the chemistry that Megan The Stallion and her fellow Houston superstar shared on “S*vage,” there’s reason to believe a Cardi Bey collab would also be impressive. In just a couple of hours, we’ll see just how great this team-up turns out.

However, that’s not all that the 28-year-old has to think about this week, although the other instance is a bit odd. Megan Thee Stallion recently received new platinum certifications for tracks like “Sweetest Pie” with Dua Lipa and “Cash S**t.” Also, Traumanize was certified gold by the RIAA over a year since its official release in August of 2022. While it’s definitely reason to celebrate, many felt that their label, 1501 Entertainment, shouldn’t be celebrating this as they did, as they took to Instagram to congratulate Meg.

For those unaware, the “NDA” artist is not in a good place with her label at the moment, stemming from contract issues and other allegations. As such, many fans rushed to her defense in the label’s comments section, saying that they didn’t do anything to contribute to these songs. Regardless, it seems like “BONGOS” might be another step in Megan’s career that will further distance her from negativity and further toward a resurgence. With that in mind, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Megan Thee Stallion.

Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion’s Collab Single “BONGOS” Drops This Week

September 4, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The Bardi Gang and the Hotties are losing their minds on social media right now, because what they’ve been waiting for is finally here. Amid a lot of successful singles, features, legal drama, relationship drama, and a whole lot else, both femcees have been relatively quiet on the solo music release front. However, that all changed on Monday (September 4) when Cardi B finally followed up her promise for a big announcement. What’s more is that this actually confirms previous rumors and brings us not just one rap return, but two. Moreover, she and Megan Thee Stallion will release their new single “BONGOS” this week, on Friday (September 8).

Of course, this is incredibly exciting news for fans of either artist, or for people that want another smash rap hit. After all, these are the two ladies that brought us “WAP”: how could they not have another banger on their hands? No matter what Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion bring us this time, though, it still marks the start of the former’s new album rollout, presumably. The Invasion Of Privacy era is no more, and after five years of waiting, it’s a welcome treat.

Sure, this is confirmation that followed an innumerable amount of teases, hints, and speculation about the Bronx MC’s next moves. Said excitement also goes for Megan Thee Stallion. Regardless, Cardi B seems more ready than ever to usher in a new phase of her career for fans. “I’m not going to release any more collaborations, I’m going to put out my next solo single,” she told Vogue Mexico in an August cover story (which didn’t age well, but hey, we’re not complaining). “Right now I’m working on the cover art and ideas for the next record because it’s definitely coming up. So stay tuned because it’s coming out very soon. I also have plans in the world of cinema. In fact, I have plans to do everything I can: fashion, branding, I want to do it all, honey.”

Meanwhile, fans wonder whether this will mark a stylistic shift for either artist. Are we getting another hip-hop trunk-knocker and club rager, or is there something fresh to uncover? We’ll have to wait until this Friday to see. With that in mind, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion.

Nicki Minaj & BIA Seemingly Have Another Collab On The Way

August 31, 2023 by newhiphopnews

BIA and Nicki Minaj recently took to social media to send each other’s fans into a frenzy with the possibility of a new collab. Moreover, the Trinidadian MC recently revealed that she has a verse on one of the Massachusetts-born rapper’s upcoming songs. Considering how much of a tear the Queen has been on as of late, fans are really excited to hear her rip through another feature. Conversely, it could also be the other way around, which is even more exciting to continue breaking BIA through to larger audiences. On her social media, she posted a video of her listening to Minaj’s upcoming single “Last Time I Saw You,” further fueling team-up speculation.

Furthermore, this would follow a pretty solid and consistent rapport up until this point, even if it’s just two officially released songs. The first is a remix of BIA’s song “WHOLE LOTTA MONEY” featuring the 40-year-old. In addition, the two also share verses on the remix of Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl,” which features a wealth of other femcees. Either way you slice it, there’s a lot of potential for another link-up to yield fireworks for both artists.

What’s more is that they both have a lot to look forward to in the coming months, whether it’s a specific album rollout or just the next phase of their careers. For example, Nicki Minaj is dropping Pink Friday 2 in November of this year, which has fans salivating for her return. Amid a slew of highly successful singles and guest appearances, the First Lady of Young Money is having the rollout of a lifetime. It’s been a long one, but considering how long we’ve been waiting for a full-length follow-up to 2018’s Queen, this is nothing to complain about.

Meanwhile, the future looks bright for the Really Her star, building up a lot of industry recognition and hit-making potential. Another Nicki support only means more acclaim and eyes on her, so it can never be a bad idea until they start over-saturating it. Right now, though, all we want is more and more, so hopefully this ends up panning out. On that note, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on BIA and Nicki Minaj.

Nicki Minaj Confirms Her New Single Is Coming Out This Week

August 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 is scheduled to release in November of this year, although it feels like we’ve been leading up to it for years. A couple of non-album singles preceded its official announcement earlier in 2023, and the Queen Barb herself couldn’t be more excited for it. As such, she’s spent a lot of time and energy on social media engaging with fans’ own anticipation and giving us little peeks and nuggets of what’s to come. For example, the Trinidadian MC recently shared a snippet of her upcoming single “Last Time I Saw You” on TikTok. Now, she officially revealed during a livestream on the platform that the track is coming out this week on Friday, September 1.

Furthermore, it seems like this is the true lead single to Pink Friday 2, which got fans absolutely ecstatic. After all, they’ve been bumping the clip quite heavily given all the times that Nicki Minaj has already previewed it. There’s a lot of anticipation for YMCMB’s First Lady to deliver some heat here, and this song specifically sounds like her older pop genre crossovers. It’s a style she does incredibly well, and one that leads us to believe that this album sequel will be as versatile as its original installment.

Nicki Minaj Will Drop Her New Single This Friday

What’s more is that this isn’t the only release that the 40-year-old has to look forward to on the horizon. Fans are also ready to hear her reunion with Drake on their highly anticipated collab on Drizzy’s upcoming For All The Dogs album. While the album didn’t drop last week as many hoped it would, could it really be the case that we’re getting both tracks this week? It seems too good to be true, but at least we know for sure that we’re getting something special from Nicki Minaj this week.

Meanwhile, it’s unclear whether “Last Time I Saw You” will be our only taste of Pink Friday 2 ahead of its release. Even if it is, we’re sure that Onika picked a song that will last us until then, and that we won’t be able to let go of. Let’s see how well that pans out in a couple of days, Barbz, as the album looks better and better every week. With that in mind, keep checking in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Nicki Minaj.

Akbar V Promotes Upcoming Single Seemingly Dedicated To Nicki Minaj

August 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rapper and “Love & Hip Hop” star Akbar V is a big Nicki Minaj fan just like the rest of us, and she wants to honor that fandom on wax. Moreover, she recently took to Twitter to announce a new single coming out on August 18 titled “A Letter To My Idol.” If you’re wondering what that has to do with the Queen, it’s because her face is on the cover art with a crown placed above her head. Of course, this made a lot of people clown her overt support online, whether because they think it’s to grab attention or just because they find it cringe. Whatever the case, it’ll still be curious to check out what kind of angle she takes considering other links between them.

Furthermore, the two share a common (well, kind of) enemy in Cardi B, although Nicki Minaj and Cardi is more like a Cold War. After all, it’s mostly their fanbases and most crazed, extreme individuals that perpetuate that kind of narrative around the two reigning femcees. The “WAP” rapper and Akbar V, though, definitely have beef, with diss tracks and all. As such, for those who aren’t super familiar with Akbar and Nicki’s previous relationship, this might seem directly tied to that feud.

Most recently, Akbar V responded to an alleged subliminal on Cardi B’s “JEALOUSY.” “Been to Atlanta, but b***hes ain’t brave,” Cardi raps on the song, and the self-titled “Queen of Atlanta” thinks it’s about her. “Ain’t no b***h gonna act like my city no punk, even if you wasn’t talking about me, b***h,” Akbar clapped back in a video. “Ain’t no b***h from Atlanta no punk. We very brave in Atlanta,” and she said that a diss to anything Atlanta-related is always a diss to her.

“Them pr stunts got you begging for clicks, we don’t throw mics we throw up our fists #yougetit,” she tweeted, referring to Cardi B’s recent microphone scandal. Even though that’s at the forefront of public attention, it might obfuscate Akbar and Nicki’s past collaborations and co-signs. We’ll see just how deep this upcoming track goes into all that. On that note, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Akbar V and Nicki Minaj.

Trippie Redd Shares Emotive & Wavy New Snippet

May 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s been a few months now since the release of Trippie Redd’s polarizing last album, MANSION MUSIK, which kicked off 2023 back in January. While it had some standout highlights, many weren’t feeling the long tracklist and general lack of variety. After all, the Ohio native is known for the many different styles, emotions, vocal cadences, and types of beats that he plays with across his work. However, if you’re one of those fans that wants Trippie to tap back into his emotions, maybe that’s what’s coming soon. He just put a new snippet of an unreleased track on his Instagram featuring his girlfriend Skye Morales that hints toward a departure from his rage tendencies on MANSION MUSIK.

Furthermore, the snippet deals in heartbreak, finding it hard to fall in love, and feeling betrayed by a past relationship. With a guitar in the background as its harmonic driver, a simple trap beat, and Trippie Redd’s melodic sung vocals, it certainly doesn’t sound like anything on his last album. In fact, it seems like he hinted towards the upcoming release of A Love Letter To You 5 in his caption, specifically its first single. “LEFT 4 DEAD,” he captioned the post with presumably the teased single in question. “COMMENT 555 if u ready for the first single from the album.”

Unfortunately Trippie Redd’s past releases faced roadblocks from hackers holding his music hostage for $1 million. It seems like the greatest effect that had was on the track “KRZY TRAIN” with Travis Scott. According to the 23-year-old, he had to release the unmixed original cut of the song because the whole album would’ve leaked first otherwise. It’s a shame that such an anticipated release faced that robbery, but that was one of the tracks people liked the most from MANSION MUSIK. As such, it seems like everything worked out in the end.

Meanwhile, the “Sweeter Scars” artist probably brought a lot of fans’ hopes up with this snippet. For hardcore Big 14 fans, it indicated that he would go back to the genre blends and emotive songwriting that they love him for. That’s not to say that he can’t do how he pleases with each release, but if anyone can balance so many worlds, it’s him.
