GloRilla And Sexyy Red Drop Killer “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” Video

October 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

GloRilla and Sexyy Red definitely cater to the same crowd. They know how to make instantly catchy trap songs that cater to women and men alike. GloRilla, in particular, is really having a moment. The rapper is fresh off the release of her debut album, Glorious, and it has been warmly received by fans. Many feel it showcases previously unforeseen depth to her pen game and overall persona. That said, the standouts have been the ratchet anthems, and “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” is definitely one of those.

GloRilla and Sexyy Red sound perfectly at home on the bouncy beat to this new single. They knew they were hitting on a potential smash here, so it makes sense that this would be the song to get a video as soon as Glorious dropped. “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” is not an instance of a music video trying to be artsy, or too clever for its own good. It gives the fans exactly what they want, which is GloRIlla and Sexyy Red shaking and rapping along in outrageous outfits. The two rappers are clearly having a ball during the video. The settings alternate between a barbershop and a bright pink background in which Glo and Red brandish increasingly bold looks.

GloRilla And Sexyy Red Bring Out The Best In Each Other

Fans have been waiting for GloRilla and Sexyy Red to link up on a song, and “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” delivers on both the sonic and visual front. The video is fun, and easily rewatchable. The song is even better. GloRilla kicks things off with an energetic and stylish verse. Sexyy Red, of course, comes in with her trademark flow on the back end of the song. There’s a lot to like about the track, especially its bouncy, seemingly unstoppable instrumental.

“WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” is also one of the brightest Sexyy Red features in a minute. GloRilla seemingly brings the best out of her, and she delivers an enthusiastic guest verse. “You play with me, I put a pole in your teeth,” she spits. “I-I-I’m with my peoples, and we comin’ fifty deep. Ye ain’t know I was a hitta ’cause I’m always lookin’ fleek. C-C-Cash out new ball, AMG.” The enthusiasm comes across in the video. If this single is any indication of the rollout Glorious is going to have, then we’re in for a good time.

Snowd4y And Drake Drop Ridiculous Music Video For “Wah Gwan Delilah”

September 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake has been moving in slightly puzzling ways since the Kendrick Lamar battle. Some of his moves have worked. The “100 Gigs” drops have been major online events. They’ve also given fans insight into some of their favorite Drake albums. Other moves have left us collectively puzzled. “Wah Gwan Delilah” is at the top of this list. The 6 God decided to team up with comedian/artist Snowd4y for a Plain White T’s cover so baffling that the band thought it was a parody. And now we have a music video for it.

Drake and Snowd4y didn’t shoot a live action video for their cover. That would have been pushing it. They did, however, decide to drop an animated music video as ridiculous as their accented take on the song. An animated Snowd4y strums an acoustic guitar amidst various landmarks in Toronto. The video real kicks off, though, when animated Drizzy shows up. The rapper is inexplicably styled to look like he did during his Views era, rather than his current day vibe. He’s even rocking a vintage OVO hoodie. It’s unclear why Drake didn’t want his braids and bulky 2020s fits animated, but we digress.

Drake Pokes Fun At Himself In New Animated Video

The music video has some genuinely funny moments. Drake and OVO Chubbs freaking out over text messages the former received, and Drake posted up on a bed with the titular Delilah. The animation style is reminiscent of South Park, right down to the minimal movement and facial expressions. To further sell the Views-era, though, the music video decides to perch animated Aubrey on top of the CN Tower that graces the album cover.

Drake has been dropping lots of loosies over the last few months. He’s had collabs with Latto, Playboi Carti and Lil Yachty. Some of them have well-liked by fans. It’s baffling, then, that “Wah Gwan Delilah” is the one that got a music video. Sure, it’s animated, but the song came out months ago. It’s a puzzling for Drake to bring attention back to the least-liked song he’s dropped in 2024. That said, he’s doing his own thing. We just hope that Drizzy and PARTYNEXTDOOR album is coming soon.

Playboi Carti Drops Cameo-Filled “All Red” Visualizer And Teases New Video

September 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Playboi Carti is really giving fans an album rollout. There was a period where it seemed as though getting new music from the rapper would be harder than getting a release date out of Frank Ocean. Playboi Carti has made good on his promises since Friday, though. He dropped the pre-order links for his upcoming album, MUSIC, and released the lead single, “All Red,” a few hours later. Then, on Monday, September 16, Playboi Carti dropped the visualizer for the song. The first visualizer of his his entire career.

The visualizer is as slick and cool as the song itself. Fans can be seen walking into a convenience store and buying the Billboard Magazine with Playboi Carti on the cover. The visualizer then shifts to a more traditional club setting. Carti can be seen partying alongside a star-studded roster of guests. It may seen counterintuitive to think of Playboi Carti as a rapper with lots of industry connections. He’s the posterboy for intrigue and mysteriousness. Some fans are going to be put off by the fact that he stacked his official visualizer with cameos. That said, it’s cool to see him partying alongside people like NAV and Meek Mill.

NAV And Meek Mill Appear In Playboi Carti’s Visualizer

It works perfect as a music video for “All Red.” Fans are used to getting so little from the rapper that even a song visualizer seems like a luxury. Fortunately, there’s more “All Red” content around the corner. Carti confirmed that the official music video for the single is still in the works. “Not official video,” he wrote in the caption of the visualizer link. Christmas has seemingly come early for Playboi Carti fans. At least, it’s shaping up to be earlier than expected.

Playboi Carti’s “All Red” has garnered attention for reasons both good and bad. Everybody is happy that the elusive rapper is back with a new song. Some, however, have pointed out the similarities between his new sound and that of Future. Carti dropped the baby voice and is now using a deep register that sounds eerily like Pluto. There are even those who are convinced that Future is an uncredited feature on “All Red” given how much it sounds like signature delivery. All stylistic debate aside, though, we are all eager to see what the music video for “All Red” has in store.

Homeboy Sandman Drops New Single “Alchemy” Ahead Of Next Mixtape

August 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Queens rapper Homeboy Sandman has enjoyed a lengthy career in hip-hop. However, the last few years have been his most successful in what has turned into nearly two decades of excellence for the MC. His 2023 album, Rich, received critical acclaim, and he followed that with Rich II this past June. In 2022 and 2023, he released two mixtapes, I Can’t Sell These and I Can’t Sell These Either, on Bandcamp. He recently announced a third, Nor Can These Be Sold (At Least By Me), which does not yet have a release date. “Alchemy” is the first teaser from Sandman’s newest mixtape, accompanied by a music video.

Homeboy Sandman raps over a track by the Japanese musician Doubutsu System, called “Night Wind,” a track that is also available on Bandcamp. It is reminiscent of old-school East Coast production. Sandman’s flow is equally similar to one a rapper from the 1990s might use on the track. The bars are a lyrical exercise, with Sandman sounding agile and motivated over the production. He touches on a variety of topics. Family, the idea of being rich, his skills as a rapper, and the perception that his fans have of him as an artist. Fans know him as a more serious MC who makes music in a similar lane to artists like Quelle Chris and Aesop Rock, but he insists that he can also let loose sometimes. In the video, he stops rapping after certain bars to add context or an explanation, which fans can read in the subtitles. Overall, it’s a single that fans of Homeboy Sandman are likely to be happy with. Stream the track below.

Homeboy Sandman – “Alchemy”

Quotable Lyrics:

Y’all know me for enlightening folks and throwing lightning bolts
But also known for telling silly jokes and feeding billy goats
You’ll find I’m way too kind to kill a roach
I never read the Times or read the Post
I had somebody ask me what I really gross, sounded really gross
I’m here to talk about my fears and hopes

Shenseea & Wizkid Star In New Music Video For “Work Me Out”

August 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Shenseea has teamed up with Wizkid for a new music video for the track, “Work Me Out,” which she dropped on her acclaimed sophomore album, Never Gets Late Here, earlier this year. The piece kicks off with Shen in the gym getting a workout in before Wizkid jumps in the perform his portion of the song in a desert landscape in front of a bright sun.

When Shen shared a clip of her dancing to the song on Instagram on Sunday, fans expressed their love for the track in the comments section. One top response reads: “I feel like the world still sleep on you and it’s blowing my mind. By far one of the most talented, dedicated and baddest women in the game rn [fire emoji] and knowing where and what u really came from and watching u flourish all these years to this is mind blowing. U were really loved in Jamaica. And now America. International superstar and I love this for u and Trey.” Another fan adds: “The fact that you made the underlying Aaliyah song a jam is amazing so proud to see you successful can’t wait.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Shenseea as well as Wizkid on HotNewHipHop.

Shenseea Collaborates With Wizkid For Her New Single

Quotable Lyrics:

Just one night to work me out (Work), work me out (Work)
Give sexercise and burn me out (Burn)
Keep it quiet, but turn me up (Turn)
Turn me up (Turn), just one night to work
Work me out (Work),”

Childish Gambino’s “Lithonia” Music Video Takes A Horrifying Turn: Watch

July 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Childish Gambino knows how to sell an aesthetic. He alters his look for each album rollout, and the music videos that accompany his singles follow suit. “3005” is worlds away from “This Is America,” and his new single, “Lithonia,” is different from both. The video for “Lithonia” starts off with a surprisingly minimal set up. Childish Gambino steps to the mic and sings. The camera focuses on his mouth, and stays put for the first 40 seconds before cutting to a wide shot. From there, a band shuffles in behind the artist and starts jamming.

“Lithonia” has a rock and post-punk influence, which is relatively within Childish Gambino’s catalog. The band members will look familiar to fans of both indie music and film. The drummer is Alex Wolff, who got his start in the Naked Brothers Band but has since gone on to star in the classic horror flick Hereditary. The guitarist is Ludwig Goransson, Gambino’s longtime producer and Oscar-winning composer of the film Oppenheimer. A small audience sits before the band, listening intently as the music swells. It’s the switch at the 1:30 mark, though, where things really take a turn for the weird. The band members begin to exhibit strange behavior, culminating with Gambino screaming until his eyeballs literally explode.

Childish Gambino Turns Feral In New Music Video

The girl in the front row gets covered in blood, and proceeds to run out of the studio. The video hard cuts to her running outside, but Childish Gambino chases after her. The artist can no longer see (obviously), but feral instincts appear to have kicked in, and he lets out an animalistic scream. It’s pretty unsettling, especially given how sudden the shift from weirdness to outright terror is. Gambino has never officially dabbled in horror, but he’s flirted with the genre in the past. He was the co-creator and producer of the HBO show Swarm, which detailed a woman’s disturbing obsession with a pop star.

The music video for “Lithonia” also harkens back to Childish Gambino’s breakout single, “Bonfire.” The 2011 standout from Camp featured the rapper waking up in the woods with a noose around his neck. He spends the rest of the video trying to warn his friends about an impending murderer. The video ends with Childish Gambino realizing that he’s a ghost, and that none of the other campers can see or hear him. We’re curious to see how the rest of the Bando Stone and the New World music videos continue the “Lithonia” storyline.

June 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Chloe Bailey first rose to fame alongside her sister Halle in an R&B duo fittingly called Chloe x Halle. The pair released two albums, capped off by 2020’s critical darling Ungodly Hour before going on hiatus as a pair. While Halle shifted her focus to acting she eventually returned to music with her Grammy nominated single “Angel.” That followed the release of Chloe’s own shift towards solo music which resulted in her full debut solo album In Pieces. But earlier this week she made a revelation about her lifestyle that had fans shocked.

Chloe Bailey has long professed to being vegan and advocating for the lifestyle. She’s been a vegan for a full 11 years now and it took her that entire time to break and eat some meat again. She revealed in a newly recorded video that she isn’t strictly vegan anymore. “I’m about to spill some tea. You wanna know my confession. My confession is that recently, I have been consuming chicken,” she says in the clip. She reveals that it was an adjustment at first with her getting stomach cramps the first time she ate it. But with a couple more tries she seemed to get back into the groove of eating chicken again. Check out the full clip where she discusses her recent change in diet below.

Sexyy Red Called Out By Her Own Son After Cursing Out Fans Who Pry Too Much About Her Personal Life

June 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Sexyy Red experienced an absolutely meteoric rise to fame last year. Through collaborations with artists like Drake, Nicki Minaj, Chief Keef, Summer Walker, and more. That set her up for a 2024 where she can score hits all on her own. Her solo single “Get It Sexyy” peaked inside the top 20 and is still hovering in the top 30 of the Hot 100 this week. But that astronomical rise to fame has also given rise to a rough adjustment period as she deals with some of the less glamorous parts of being famous.

One of the things that’s clearly bothering her are fans insisting that they see her children more often. She took to Instagram with a profanity-laced rant calling them out directly this week. “Why is ya’ll worried about my kids? They right here, they cool, they fed, they good. Go have some kids and worry about them dirty ass b*tches,” she says in the video. Though it’s actually one of her children that first takes issue with her statement. Her own son is with her while she’s recording the video and chastises her for swearing so much in the video. “Okay im sorry. But they be pissing me off. My kids right here, they always with me b*tch” she concludes. Check out the full video she shared below.

Diddy Returns To Los Angeles Following Months Of Controversy

June 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s hard to think of anybody who has had a worse 2023 than Diddy so far. It began last year for the rap mogul when he was sued by Cassie over allegations that he was physically abusive to her during their relationship. That turned out to be just the beginning of the legal trouble he would face though. Numerous more lawsuits emerged in the following months, none more evocative the Lil Rod’s. That suit brought in numerous other figures like Yung Miami and Meek Mill. It made some increasingly wild claims that left even Diddy’s haters wondering if Rod was telling the truth.

Then it escalated to much more serious legal trouble in March when the federal government raided two of the rap mogul’s properties in Los Angeles and Miami. They later revealed that the raids were a part of an investigation into allegations of sex trafficking. With the investigation presumed to be still ongoing it’s not surprising that he’s kept a pretty low profile. One place the label-head did pop up is in an apology video. He felt compelled to make one when footage of him allegedly assaulting Cassie captured through a hotel security camera was leaked by CNN. Now after an extended period of time hiding away in Florida, he’s reportedly back in Los Angeles. Check out the proof captured by TMZ below.

Diddy Returns To California

Newly shared video from TMZ shows Diddy back in Cali. In the particular clip he’s simply minding his business on the sidewalk in West Hollywood. They note that he’s talking to somebody, though who they aren’t can’t specifically be identified. They also note that he waves at fans and seems to have a generally happy demeanor despite his current circumstances.

What do you think of Diddy returning to California after weeks of further controversy plaguing him? Do you expect him to make any kind of return to public appearances any time soon? Let us know in the comment section below.

Halle & Chloe Bailey Have Hilariously Different Reactions To TikTok Donations

June 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Chloe and Halle Bailey are famously versatile sister talents. The two made music together for years as Chloe x Halle. They released two studio albums The Kids Are Alright in 2018 and Ungodly Hour in 2020. Since then the pair have gone on hiatus as a duo. Instead they’ve focused both on their own solo music projects as well as other ventures. Halle made her major move to film acting with a staring role in The Little Mermaid last year and also released her debut solo single “Angel,” which went on to be nominated for a Grammy. Chloe on the other hand released an entire debut album called In Pieces last year.

In a hilarious new video making the rounds online, a fan compared the way the two talented sisters reacted when getting donations from fans on TikTok live. Halle is first and takes a much more modest approach. When she realized what she’s getting is actual money, she insists that fans save their money instead of donating it to her. Chloe is hilariously much more open to receiving donations. When she realizes that there’s actual money being thrown around, all she wants to know is how she can collect it. In the comments fans crack jokes about the difference between the pair. “Halle is my heart , Chloe is my brain” and “Halle is my first answer when somebody first offer, Chloe is my third or fourth answer after you keep insisting” two comments read. Check out the comparison video that’s cracking people up below.

Chleo Bailey hasn’t slowed down her solo music releases this year. She’s already dropped two new singles teasing towards her sophomore solo album in 2024. “FYS” dropped first back in March and was followed up by “Boy Bye” a few weeks later.

What do you think of Halle and Chloe Bailey’s different reactions to realizing they’re getting fan donations on TikTok? Which of the pair do you think is closer to how you’d react? Let us know in the comment section below.
