HNHH Staff Picks Playlist: Young Thug, Maxo Kream, Majid Jordan, & More

As the year winds down ever-so-quickly, we’re getting ready for one of the biggest weekends of the year for hip-hop with Rolling Loud coming up in Queens, New York. The upcoming festival will feature headline performances from J. Cole, 50 Cent, and Travis Scott. Throughout the day, fans will catch performances from Lil Uzi Vert, Gunna, Lil Durk, Lil Baby, Playboi Carti, Kodak Black, Roddy Ricch, Lil Tjay, A$AP Ferg, and more. 

Many of the artists on the line-up have released new music this summer, and some have even come through with drops in the last week. We’re expecting Gucci Mane to perform a bunch of his new songs during his performance on Thursday, and Lil Tjay will surely get the crowd hyped with his new single “Not In The Mood.” Wale is also on the docket for Friday, and with his new album out, you can also be sure to catch him performing loads of new music

Polling each member of our editorial staff, we’ve curated the latest update of the Staff Picks playlist on TIDAL and SoundCloud, which features recent releases from Majid Jordan, Young Thug, Big Sean, Maxo Kream, and everything else our writers were rocking with this week. You’ll also see a selection of songs from JPEGMAFIA’s new album, Cozz’s new single, and a cut from Fetty Wap’s new album.

Check out what each writer chose for the playlist this week and be sure to follow us on SoundCloud and TIDAL.
