North West Makes Her Directorial Debut With “TALKING” Music Video

April 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

North West, the eldest child between Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, continues to be heavily involved in her dad’s work. The 10-year-old phenom has been helping out with the VULTURES trilogy in many ways. She has performed onstage at various shows and listening experiences. Additionally, her singing skills were on full display on the first entry’s second single “TALKING.” All of this has inspired her to forge her own path, as she recently announced that she is in the process of making her first album. North West is now showing interest in directing, as a surprise second music video for “TALKING” is out now.

If you remember, right before VULTURES 1 hit streaming, Kanye dropped the track and its visuals on his social media accounts. In it, North was seen talking into her dad’s ear, and Ty Dolla $ign united with his only daughter, Jailynn. That video was directed by the D’Innocenzo brothers, with cinematography being handled by Matteo Cocco. However, this new video for “TALKING” sees North West take up the reins.

In fact, she is credited with writing responsibilities too. Co-directing this effort is Aus Taylor, with post-production duties in the hands of Medet. Finally, the shots were taken by Karim Belkasemi. This video is quite different from the original. Kanye is shown a little less in this version, with North and her friends talking up more of the runtime. There is a cute moment where her and her proud dad are boxing with each other. Ty Dolla $ign does pop up in the second half but he is by himself this time. Overall, it is artfully done, and North is showing that she is a sure-fire multi-hyphenate.

What are your thoughts on the new music video for “TALKING” being directed by North West? Which set of visuals for the song do you prefer more and why?

Future & Metro Boomin Unveil Hypnotic “Drink N Dance” Music Video

April 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The release of both Future and Metro Boomin’s collaborative LPs, We Don’t Trust You and We Still Don’t Trust You, have been explosive, to say the least. When the first arrived last month, fans were quick to react to Kendrick Lamar’s verse on “Like That,” which takes shots and Drake and J. Cole. For this reason, fans were eager to hear what else the duo had up their sleeves, and it’s safe to say they weren’t let down.

Listeners can agree that Future and Metro managed to deliver yet again on the sequel. It features the likes of ASAP Rocky, The Weeknd, and more. Interestingly enough, J. Cole even makes an appearance. As expected, it’s resulted in even more online chaos as well as a response track from Drake, “Push Ups.” Needless to say, the drop is one that’s likely to be discussed for some time.

Future & Metro Boomin Drop New We Still Don’t Trust You Visual

One song from the album that quickly became a fan favorite was “Drink N Dance,” though it’s free of any high-profile guest performers. The laid-back, dreamy track has now gotten an accompanying music video. Dimly lit moments of intimacy between Future and a leather-clad woman are interrupted by disorienting club scenes, matching the dark, sexual themes of the song. The latest video follows the release of one to accompany the project’s title track and features The Weeknd. It manages to harness much of the same energy of the “Drink N Dance” video, staying true to the album’s aesthetic while taking a brighter approach by introducing more color.

What do you think of Future and Metro Boomin’s album, We Still Don’t Trust You? What about their new “Drink N Dance” music video? Which of the project’s music videos has been your favorite so far? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Future, Metro Boomin, & The Weeknd Reunite Once Again For “Young Metro” Music Video

March 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Future and Metro Boomin’s collaborative project WE DON’T TRUST YOU has been out for a full weekend now and fans messing with it heavily. While we feel there are some sleepier and just meh moments on it, it is definitely a solid listen. Of course, everyone on the internet cannot stop discussing Kendrick Lamar’s wild appearance on “Like That.” Drake has somewhat responded to the chatter around it in typical fashion, but still crickets from J. Cole. But do not let this song distract you from the fact that there is plenty of other hot tracks on the LP. For example, “Young Metro” is one to keep your eye on, as the music video is out now.

During the weekend, the features were hidden from us, so it was really cool to hear The Weeknd appear, albeit minimally. It was especially surprising (or maybe not) to hear him do a feature after he said he would not be doing anymore. Clearly, Future and Metro know that this will be one of the hits from the record with “Young Metro” being the second track to get a music video. After watching the “Type S***” visuals, it is clear what the direction for the tone is.

Watch “Young Metro” By Future, Metro Boomin, & The Weeknd

The “Young Metro” video sports some trippy, mysterious and dark shots all throughout. Hidji World and Omar Jones are credited as the directors, and they bring some cool edits into the mix. There are some spinning and slow-motion elements that complement the angelic qualities of the track. Overall, the visuals and song itself are both very good and it figures to be one of the go-to moments from WE DON’T TRUST YOU.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new music video for “Young Metro” by Metro Boomin, Future, and The Weeknd? Is this the best set of visuals for the album so far, why or why not? What is your favorite part of the video? How are you liking WE DON’T TRUST YOU? Is this your best song from the album, why or why not? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Sexyy Red And Neco Heartaway Drop New Visuals For Collab “City Girl”

January 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Almost every artist that has become popular had to work extremely hard to get to superstardom. That was the case for Missouri rapper and eccentric personality, Sexyy Red. We know her now for her raunchy, NSFW bangers that have taken over for better or for worse. She is highly controversial but, she rakes in the streams and she has a passionate fan base. Sexyy is now selling out shows across the country, but how did she get to that point? Well, one of her earliest hits she was a part of came back in 2021.

She was a small blip on some people’s radar back then if they had a close ear to the streets. Red, along with R&B artist Neco Heartaway, dropped a gem called “City Girl” on September 7. These are nowhere near the kind of tracks that she is used to being on nowadays. It might be better for it because she sounded very out of place on it.

Listen To “City Girl” By Neco Heartaway And Sexyy Red

Neco certainly gave the track his all with a great hook and fantastic vocal work. On the other hand, her voice sounds like it was recorded at the bottom of a well. Additionally, it appears to be too low in the mix. It has similar vibes to when NAV had a weird issue on “YOSEMITE” initially. But, this was just the start for Sexyy Red, so there is not too much you could say about it. We wanted to shed light on this collab track because they just released the visuals. Go check it out for yourself with the link above.

What are your thoughts on this song, “City Girl,” by Neco Heartaway and Sexyy Red? Does she sound better now or when she was coming up? Were you tapped in when the track initially dropped? What are your favorite Neco tracks and why? 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. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Neco Heartaway and Sexyy Red. Finally, stay with us for the most informative song posts throughout the week.

Get Ready to Shine: Beyoncé’s Renaissance Tour Goes Cinematic

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Beyoncé, the music sensation, is bringing her epic world tour to the big screen at AMC Theatres!

Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour is set to make a cinematic splash, and fans are in for a treat. Reports suggest that the music icon is finalizing a deal to bring her globally acclaimed tour to the silver screen through none other than AMC Theatres. The news was first reported by Variety.

What has the BeyHive buzzing is the behind-the-scenes look at Beyoncé’s mind-blowing Renaissance tour performances. On her birthday, Queen Bey issued a unique request to her fans: dress in chrome-shimmering silver. The invitation was accepted, and hundreds of thousands of concertgoers transformed into a “shimmering human disco ball.”

The tour itself stands as a testament to Beyoncé’s unmatched prowess, ranking as her highest-grossing journey to date. Hollywood’s top agency, CAA, is managing the negotiations, and there’s fierce competition to collaborate with the superstar.

The cherry on top is the rumored incorporation of visuals from Beyoncé’s Renaissance album. While she teased music video-style content when the album dropped, the full visuals remained under wraps.

Securing tickets for the Renaissance World Tour was no easy feat, given the overwhelming demand. Now, it’s turning into a must-see movie. Insiders are hinting that the movie could hit theaters around December 1.

There’s also speculation that the movie might be a secret project Beyoncé worked on with director Nadia Lee Cohen. Cohen has previously directed Beyoncé’s music videos for “Formation,” “Sorry,” and “Hold Up.”

Fans are eagerly awaiting the release of the movie, which promises to be a cinematic celebration of Beyoncé’s artistry and mastery of live performance.

We’ll keep you updated on the latest news about the Beyoncé Renaissance World Tour movie, so be sure to check back soon!

ASAP Rocky Brings Out The Tank For New “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n)” Music Video

July 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

As he’s travelled across the globe with Rihanna over the past few months, fans have noticed ASAP Rocky keeping busy with various filming projects, despite a lack of new music from the 34-year-old. This past weekend, he delivered “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n)” in collaboration with Pharrell Williams. Now that the song has had a moment to sink in, Rocky is back with the music video. He dropped off the footage on Tuesday (July 25). It finds the New York native riding through the streets in a massive tank, surrounded by similarly dressed figures.

The song was used in a Beats by Dre ad that finds ASAP leaving the comfortable confines of his home to go get diapers for his son, RZA, at Rih’s request. Elsewhere, it’s also sparked speculation that the happy couple secretly tied the knot without any fan fare. “My wife is erotic, I’m smokin’ ex*tic / My whip is ex*tic, my crib is a cottage,” Rocky raps over Skateboard P’s production, obviously talking about his Barbadian-born beauty.

ASAP Rocky Delivers His “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n)” Visual Ahead of New Album

Aside from the wedding rumours, the Testing hitmaker also suggested that he and the Bad Gal have a joint song on the way. Of course, he could also be referring to the second baby that they’re expecting together any week now with his bars. “Luxe balm up in my palm / New collab with my baby mom,” Rocky rhymes in the video above.

ASAP Rocky is obviously eager to finally share Don’t Be D*mb with the world. However, his excitement was overshadowed by rumours of beef between him, Ian Connor, and ASAP Bari this weekend. While performing his headlining set at Rolling Loud, the 34-year-old appeared to diss the embattled creatives. However, that drama has since been cleared up in the DMs. Read what Rocky said to Connor about the situation at the link below. Make sure to check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Gunna Paces A Padded Cell With Clones In “idk nomore” Music Video

June 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Gunna simply couldn’t catch a break in the first half of 2023. For months on end, accusations of snitching were being thrown his way consistently by contemporaries. Last weekend Gunna dropped off a Gift & a Curse, on which he markedly reflects on the treatment he’s received since returning home from jail. He’s obviously been having a hard time connecting with his former collaborators. Still, many fans have praised the fashion lover’s noticeably different appearance, which he’s proudly showing off in various music videos accompanying his surprise new album.

So far, the embattled artist has shared a trio of visuals for the 15-track project. The latest landed on Tuesday (June 20) for title three, “idk nomore.” While the official song on DSPs spans nearly three minutes, today’s video comes in at just 70 seconds. It sees Gunna aimlessly wandering around a padded cell while singing along. Camera effects add in cloned versions of him, and they grow increasingly frustrated as their time locked up stretches on. Seeing as the DS4EVER hitmaker was behind bars recently, it’s likely a reference to his own YSL RICO jail stint.

Gunna Returns with Another Visual

“Duckin’ the law, I ain’t trustin’ no one at all / I know that when you shine they wish some days will be dark,” Gunna reflects on the chorus. “And I know there be a time you really show who you are / We burned the bridge and cut the ties and we forever apart.” It hasn’t gotten him back in everyone’s good graces. Nevertheless, a Gift & a Curse has resolidified Gunna’s status as one of the most attention-grabbing creatives coming out of Atlanta. Hopefully his new releases won’t cause clubs in the area to come to a standstill as we’ve seen in the past.

Which of Gunna’s new music videos has been your favourite so far, “back to the moon,” “i was just thinking,” or “idk nomore”? Tap into the latter on YouTube above, then share your thoughts in the comments. For more HNHH release recommendations, make sure to check back in this upcoming New Music Friday.

Tyler, The Creator Keeps It Simple In His “HEAVEN TO ME” Music Video: Watch

April 3, 2023 by newhiphopnews

2022 was a relatively quiet year for Tyler, The Creator musically. His biggest contribution came in the form of “Cash In Cash Out” with Pharrell Williams and 21 Savage. Aside from that, the Californian laid relatively low, though the same can’t be said for 2023. After several months of silence, he surprised late last month with “DOGTOOTH.“ Along with that, he announced the deluxe edition of 2021’s CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST album.

Titled The Estate Sale, the project’s updated tracklist boasts eight new titles. Among them are previously unheard collaborations with Vince Staples, YG, and A$AP Rocky. Those new additions are called “STUNTMAN,” “BOYFRIEND GIRLFRIEND (2020 Demo),” and “WHARF TALK,” respectively. Following the project’s arrival last Friday (March 31), Tyler shared a music video for the latter joint effort. Today (April 3), he’s returned with another for “HEAVEN TO ME.”

In the self-directed footage, the “Goblin” hitmaker keeps it simple, singing for the camera in his home studio. Looking as cool as ever, Tyler donned a printed dad sweater and jeans for his casual day of filming, finishing the look off with a green and yellow cap, glasses, and suave brown dress shoes. “I like sugar, I like sweets, I don’t like the spicy eats / I need bridges in my beats and Campana Brothers seats,” he confidently rhymes while letting his bold persona shine through.

“The heaven part for me is knowin’ I can, wake up when I’m finished with my sleep, ain’t no kids to feed / No stress I bleed, I don’t got a boss, I go wherever and don’t care ’bout the cost (Nah) / Gas money was stark for me, uh / Now I got so many cars I could start up, we nappin’ in parks, we in the sun gettin’ darked up,” Tyler, The Creator’s lyrics continue as he reflects on a few of the luxuries fame has afforded him.

Ice Spice & Her Baddie Friends Go Hard For The “In Ha Mood” Music Video

January 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

There’s no one quite like Ice Spice. Upon dropping her debut EP earlier this month, the Bronx-born lyricist sold 15K units. To some this may not sound like a lot. However, it’s key to remember that the 23-year-old only broke out last summer with her “Munch (Feelin’ U)” single.

Her explosive success is a force to be reckoned with. After breaking the internet with six new tracks last weekend, she proudly announced her starring role in Beyoncé’s latest Ivy Park campaign. Others honoured with a placement in the advertisement include Offset and one of his young sons.

To keep the momentum for Like..? going into this weekend, Spice dropped off the visual for “In Ha Mood” on Saturday (January 28). She was filming in her hometown a few weeks back. The lit energy from the behind-the-scenes clips obviously came through on the main cameras.

Though the video looks seamless, it was actually a last-minute decision after plans fell through to film for another song on the EP.

Lil Tjay was due to join the “Princess Diana” artist on set for their “Gangsta Boo” collaboration. Unfortunately, he and several other men were taken into police custody at a traffic stop due to weapons charges.

A post shared by Ice Spice (@icespice)

In her celebratory Instagram post from earlier today, Spice markedly quoted some of her best bars. “Ice how [you] always stay hot? Oh, they mad ‘cus I keep making bops. Oh, she mad ‘cus I’m takin’ ha spot!?”

Thus far, fellow celebrities like Russ, Reginae Carter, and Light Skin Keisha have all dropped by the comment section to gas her up along with thousands of fans.
