Just days ago, DJ Akademiks found footage of Latto recording a music video for a brand-new single. Fans were hyped for it and now we have it. However, this is not a Latto song. Rising fellow Atlanta femcee Anycia takes the reigns on this cut. “BACK OUTSIDE” is the 26-year-old’s fourth collaboration single since she began releasing music to streaming in late 2022.
Anycia has worked with more underground names like MVW, Robb Bank$, and up-and-comer KARRAHBOOO. So, this is a big moment for the young artist. She possesses a deep and low-key voice that exudes confidence. You can find this similar energy on tracks like “BRB” and “SPLASH BROTHERS,” for example.
Latto brings her usual solid flows over a horn-backed trap beat provided by Jetsonmade. Anycia spoke with BET about how this sudden wave of success has changed her life. “The best thing that I’ve gotten out of everything is the instant confidence boost. I feel superduper more love, and it’s not even so much from the outside. It’s an internal thing.” She continues, “It’s kind of one of those things where you tell yourself you can’t do something or you have every doubt in the world that it won’t work or just thinking about all the things that will go wrong. And then you finally do it and it works.”
What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “BACK OUTSIDE,” by Anycia and Latto? Who had the better performance on the song and why? Is Anycia going to turn herself into a star by the end of 2024? Is Latto still the best rapper from Atlanta? 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 Anycia and Latto.

Quotable Lyrics:
They don’t never wanna talk ’bout a verse Stop worrying ’bout the s*** they type ‘Cause the same h**s see me and slurp I’m a Southside b**** to the grave I’m a Southside b**** to the hearse Woo, skrrt
Social media has completely melted down after footage emerged of Lil Wayne’s children not standing up to greet Queen Latifah when being introduced to her at a basketball game. X users were livid that Wayne’s children “disrespected” Latifah by remaining in their seats as they shook her hand courtside. For many, especially older people, it was a great sign of rudeness not to stand for someone as legendary as Latifah.
However, many people didn’t see what the big deal was. Some argued that Wayne isn’t going to be someone who teaches etiquette based on his own upbringing. Meanwhile, others argued that this was just social media getting in on business that didn’t concern them. Neither Latifah or Wayne have commented on the “incident”, indicating that they don’t see that any social etiquette rules were broken. What do you think? Is it disrespect or just social media overreacting? Let us know in the comments.
Meanwhile, Wayne spoke on his idea of the NBA’s future in an interview last month. Specifically, Wayne wants to Ja Morant to be the next face of the league. “To me I think the obvious answer is Ja. Because the NBA is entertainment. What I mean by that is there was always a Michael Jordan, just like, you know like God. You gonna watch these Atlanta Hawk games just to see what Dominique, just to see if he gonna get ’em one off. I’m going to watch these Portland games to see if Clyde gonna get him one. Ja’s teams are actually competitive when he’s there and he’s doing his thing,” Wayne told Bleacher Report‘s Taylor Rooks.
It’s not the first time that Wayne has spoken in support of Morant. “Do y’all know that boy? ‘Cause I don’t. I know him from dunking and jumping, and I only started knowing him when I started paying attention to him around his last year of college. He come from like a town with 3,000 people. Like, what? What y’all expect? Y’all gave him $200 million,” Wayne told the All The Smoke podcast while defending Morant’s actions earlier this year.
Auto-crooner and rapper Lil Tecca came through with his first project in nearly two years with TEC. It followed up his two part series We Love You Tecca from 2021. While the Queens, New York product was not saying or doing anything starkly different compared to previous releases there were a good deal of tracks that stuck. Additionally, there were some notable features.
Tecca brought on Kodak Black for some killer melodies on “HVN ON EARTH.” The vocal chipmunk vocal chops that make up the hook were fantastic. Of course, how can you forget about 500lbs? One of his best songs ever, he busted some terrific flows that just stuck.
Well, to bring back some hype around the record, the 21-year-old is back with a bonus version. This comes nearly four months after TEC‘s initial release. Lil Tecca only brings one song into the fray, bringing the total to 17. “Down With Me” is more of a slow jam that sees him reflect on the stages of becoming a famous artist. Check out the add-on with the links above.
What are your thoughts on this brand-new deluxe version of Lil Tecca’s album TEC? Do you think releasing one extra track was worth it, or should it have been a single? Does the song detract or add to the original tracklist? Is this record still in your rotation and if so what cuts? 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 Lil Tecca.
