Killer Mike & Blxst Recruit Offset For Extended Version Of “MICHAEL” Cut “EXIT 9”

April 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Killer Mike really put on for the city of Atlanta and the rap genre at the 2024 GRAMMYs. Somewhat controversially, his sophomore solo LP MICHAEL took home three categories at the iconic award show earlier this year. It won over massive mainstream records UTOPIA, HEROES & VILLAINS, Her Loss, and King’s Disease III. One of the consistent arguments against him winning came from fans who are not hip to the rap legend saying things like, “Who is Killer Mike?” But he definitely deserved all the success and now, Killer Mike is taking another victory lap by adding Offset to “EXIT 9.”

Track 10 on the original version of the album, “EXIT 9” only featured California singer Blxst. Additionally, the song was just over two minutes and 40 seconds. But with Offset entering the mix, the record now clocks in at 3:30. As most know, adding another artist to an already great track can achieve mixed results.

Listen To “EXIT 9” By Killer Mike, Offset, & Blxst

But to the former Migos member’s credit, he seamlessly slides into what Mike and Blxst were doing on the reflective song about making it from the bottom. Offset rocks a monotone and lowkey flow as he talks about Takeoff, his late grandmother, and working hard for his respect in the game. All in all, this one of the stronger bonus cuts from MICHAEL. Be sure to check out the new version of “EXIT 9” with the link above.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single “EXIT 9” by Killer Mike, Offset, and Blxst? Which version of this track do you prefer more now and why?

Quotable Lyrics:

Oh, my brother, look at the air, I see an angel that flyin’ (Angel)
Fifteen years, brother gone, every day momma cry (Momma)
I was strugglin’, start hustlin’, start cuttin’ up pies (Hustle)
Streets start huggin’ me, not lovin’ me, but it wasn’t on my mind (No-no-no, but it wasn’t on my mind)
Doin’ crime, chasin’ a dime, so I don’t be behind (Hey!)
I had did this for my gang, I don’t see nothin’, go blind (Gang)

Future Disses Drake (Again) On Nardo Wick Single “Back To Back”

April 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Future wasn’t going to stay silent forever. Future and Metro Boomin were the ones who turned the rest of the hip-hop industry against Drake by releasing the pointedly titled albums WE DON’T LIKE YOU and WE STILL DON’T LIKE YOU. They clearly have a problem with the 6 God, and they teamed up with every rap star who feels the same way to bomb on him. Future has been suspiciously quiet since the collab albums dropped, however, leading many to ask whether he was still in the battle. Fans got their answer on April 25.

Future linked up with Nardo Wick for the new single “Back to Back,” and you can guess where this is all going based on the title. The song isn’t as pointed as Drake’s 2015 diss, especially considering Wick’s general first verse. It’s only when Future hops on for a second verse that the purpose of “Back to Back” becomes clear. Pluto raps about “sliming out” an unnamed op and smashing a woman as soon as he met her. One of Drake’s recent hits was “Slime You Out” with SZA, and the feud between him and Future is rumored to be over a woman.

Future References Multiple Drake Song Titles

Future then uses the words “diss” and “back to back” in the same line. “Ain’t gon’ be no n**ga who dissin’ you, I’m spinnin’ back to back,” he spits. “Any n**ga save on the issue, I’m goin’ rat-a-tat (Brrt).” Future knows all eyes are on him in 2024, so there’s little to no chances these bars are coincidental. He wraps up the verse by threatening violence against his target. “Fifty bullets sittin’ in the clip, it got a n**ga arrogant. Murderers on murderers do murders, my natural habitat.”

Drake has been focused on battling Kendrick Lamar and generally ignoring others. It’ll be interesting to see if he takes time out to respond to Pluto’s latest subs.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song, “Back to Back,” by Nardo Wick and Future? Do you think Future is really taking shots at Drake? Are his bars hard-hitting? Do you think Drizzy will respond? We want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Quotable Lyrics:

Bro, I’m clever, vendettas, raw dope, it’s whatever (Let’s go up)
I’m a rapper, but better, if I go, I go federal (Pluto)
I pour up, I don’t measure, I smash soon I met her (Oh)
I leveled up, my bread up, I’m fed up, it’s pressure
It’s gang-gang, you can’t hang, we slimin’ out whoever
I keep it on, get stepped on, in Maison Margiela

JT Drops Hard-Hitting Single “Okay” Amidst City Girls Feud

April 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

JT and Yung Miami are not in the best place at the moment. The two emcee rose to fame as the duo City Girls, but true to form in 2024, they have engaged in a public feud. The whole thing started when Miami called out JT for “sneak dissing” her on X (formerly Twitter). The latter denied these claims, and told her partner in rhyme that she was “playing dumb.” Things appeared to have cooled down in the three weeks since the social media explosion, but City Girls does not look as though it continue for much longer. This makes it the perfect time for JT to drop the solo single “Okay.”

The Florida rapper teased a snippet of “Okay” on April 16, along with a pre-order link. The single sees JT engage in her usual boastful style, which sounds amazing over the horn-heavy beat. The bouncy drums are a throwback to the sound Waka Flocka Flame and Lex Luger established in the late 2000s, but with a slicker, modern spin. JT’s bars are standard for anyone who’s spent time listening to a City Girls tape, but the appeal of both her and Yung Miami has always been the swagger over the wordplay. “I’m pretty than a motherf**ker, h*es be lookin’ okay,” she raps. “She think that she f**king with me, is this b*tch okay. He said he ain’t f**kin’ ’round, I look at him like, okay.” It’s a memorable chorus.

JT Proves That She Can Kill A Track Solo

“Okay” is the latest track to be released from JT’s rumored debut album. There isn’t a proper name or release date, but the rapper has been teasing multiple leaks. “Okay” is the third single for the album after “Sideways” and “No Bars,” both of which dropped in 2023. JT gushed about being able to make the music she wants in an IG post hyping up “No Bars,” and it’s safe to assume the excitement extends to “Okay” as well. “No more hiding my love for music, I love music,” she wrote. “I love my voice! I love poppin’ my sh*t.”

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song, “Okay,” by JT? Does the song make you more excited for JT’s solo album? Does it live up to the rapper’s work with City Girls? Do you think JT and Yung Miami are going to continue as a duo? We want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Quotable Lyrics:

Down South, bad b*tch, this skreet sh*t, so ratchet
Call me JT, A.K.A. The Soul Snatcher (Okay)
I’m with a booster, a scammer, and a pole dancer
P*ssy n**ga call my phone, he won’t get no answer (Nah)

Ice Spice Steals The Show On Cash Cobain’s “Fisherrr (Remix)”

April 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cash Cobain is on the come up. The rapper had a production credit on Drake and 21 Savage’s Her Loss (2022) and his new collab with Bay Swag, “Fisherrr,” has been getting lots of playlist spins on streaming. It’s a catchy track, driven by Cobain’s start/stop flow and the jittery drum pattern. The lack of a verse on the back end made it a prime candidate for a remix, though, and Cobain took notes. “Fisherrr (Remix)” enlists one of the hottest rappers on the planet, Ice Spice, and the result is a track that outdoes the original.

Cobain and Bay Swag maintain the hypnotic qualities of “Fisherrr,” but Ice Spice kicks things up a notch with her singular flow. She comes in towards the end of the remix, where the OG version lost steam, and spits bars about what else: being the baddest in the game. People don’t listen to Spice for the intricate wordplay, it’s all about the delivery and the quotables. The “Munch” hitmaker even throws it back to her breakout single. “I brought a baddie too,” she raps. “She a wetty, ooh, givin’ Betty Boop. I ain’t callin’ you “my boo,” n**ga, what you thought? I was feelin’ you?”.

Ice Spice Allegedly Disses Latto On The Remix

“Fisherrr (Remix)” actually leaked a week prior to its official release. DJ Akademiks was sent the track on April 18 and previewed it during one of his live streams. Some fans think Ice Spice’s verse is taking aim at Latto, but there’s nothing that explicitly links the two artists. “Make ’em b*tches wanna hate, she see me and she get uncomfortable” are the “diss” bars in question. In the super combative diss environment of 2024, however, they aren’t enough to start a legitimate feud. They could just as easily be general brag raps.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song, “Fisherrr (Remix),” by Cash Cobain, Bay Swag and Ice Spice? Do you prefer it to the original? Does Ice Spice keep her hot streak going? Do you think she was taking shots at Latto on her verse? We want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news on Cobain and Ice Spice. Finally, stay with us for the most informative song posts throughout the week.

Quotable Lyrics:

Got an attitude but I’m feelingless, so I ain’t mad at you
And I’m tatted too on this fatty-tude, I’m the baddest boo
So what you ’bout to do? Top on batty and then jatty move
And my a*s fat ’cause I eat my oats and my vegetables
And my p*ssy fat, and it’s creamy, ooh, just like Danimals
I’m a baddie, so I know them other b*tches ain’t impressin’ you

Ice Cube Delivered Immaculate Vibes With His Summer-Ready Track “It Was A Good Day”

April 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ice Cube is one of hip-hop’s most beloved legends. Overall, he has classic records, and he is a pioneer when it comes to West Coast hip-hop.

He is a successful actor, and a successful entrepreneur who has built his very own basketball league. At this point in his career, he can do pretty well anything. His fans rock with him, and they know he is constantly fighting the good fight.

Having said all of that, the summer is approaching, and there is no doubt that Cube’s music is great when the sun is shining the brightest.

Meanwhile, Cube raps about his day and all of the things he got to do. It is such a simple concept, yet it works extremely well.

Ice Cube x DJ Pooh

This iconic song has cemented its place in pop culture. For instance, it was in the video game Grand Theft Auto-San Andreas, which is known for its West Coast aesthetic. In fact, a lot of younger people were put on to West Coast hip-hop thanks to the game, and this song in particular. These days, Ice Cube still makes music, and he is still putting out great work.

Lil Nas X Drops Catchy Single “Trust Me” Ahead Of New Mixtape

April 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lil Nas X has really kept fans waiting. His debut album, MONTERO, was a huge breakthrough release in 2021, earning a platinum certification and three Grammy nominations. The rapper been has been quiet in subsequent years, however, despite confirming that his next release will be a sequel to his breakthrough mixtape, NASARATI. There have been leaks, teasers, and official lead singles for NASARATI 2, but 2024 seems to be the years fans will actually get to hear it. Lil Nas X’s latest single, “Trust Me,” only supports this theory.

Lil Nas X teased “Trust Me” in March, but he finally blessed fans with the full version on April 24. The song differs drastically from the rapper’s previous teaser, “Lean On My Body,” which opted for a more melodic, pop-rap approach. “Trust Me,” by contrast, goes for a harder, more gritty sound. This can be registered in the single artwork, which sees the often flamboyantly dressed Nas X rocking a tank top and jean shorts. The “Industry Baby” rapper focuses on his teenage years and the difficulty he had coming to terms with his sexuality. “Back in middle school, I was fiending for d*ck,” he raps. “7th grade, sending my homies some pics. Daddy never knew what I did as a kid, he would’ve crucified me but…”

Lil Nas X Talks About His Struggles As A Teen

The second verse lays out Lil Nas X’s struggles in the current day. He raps about health concerns, wealth goals, and his insecurities as a pop star. The transparency extends the the chorus: “Anytime I’m wrong I’ll admit it, why not,” he sings. “Rather tell the truth than pretend, why lie?.” Nas X has always been honest with his music, and “Trust Me” is a reminder than he can do so over a simple, catchy hip-hop beat. The song is currently streaming on SoundCloud, which is where NASARATI 2 will eventually be released.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song, “Trust Me,” by Lil Nas X? Does the rapper keep his hot streak going? Do you like the stripped-down approach to the production? Do you think NASARATI 2 will be Nas X’s best project yet? We want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Gucci Mane Bombs On Diddy With New Diss Track “TakeDat”

April 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

There wasn’t enough feuding in hip-hop, so Gucci Mane decided to get in on the act. The Atlanta legend dropped a surprise track on April 24 titled “TakeDat,” but even more surprising than the drop was the aim of the track. “TakeDat” is blatant diss at at Sean “Diddy” Combs, complete with a music video and cover art that mocks Diddy’s most iconic moments. Gucci does not hold back in the rapping department, as he references several of the mogul’s alleged crimes in his lyrics.

“TakeDat” may not sound like a diss based on the intro, but the target immediately becomes clear in the opening verse. Gucci raps about earning platinum plaques for his artists and taking out his ops, ending each of his bars with the phrase “No Diddy.” The phrase “No Diddy” was popularized by 50 Cent on X (formerly Twitter), but Gucci went the extra mile by making it the chorus of a song. “We gettin’ higher than a kite, no Diddy,” he raps during the opener. “See my artists double plaque, no Diddy. Sippin’ on yak, no Diddy. Couple n**gas got whacked, no Diddy. “Keep the shooters with the strap, no Diddy.”

Gucci Mane Uses Diddy’s Catchphrase To Clown Him

The music video sees Gucci Mane recreate an iconic scene from The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Big Poppa” video. Diddy posted up in a bathtub with women in the 1994 video, and Gucci responds by doing the same thing while shouting “No Diddy.” There are references to Diddy-assisted classics like “Mo Money Mo Problems,” but the simpler lines prove to be most effective. Gucci makes fun of Diddy “dancin’ like a ho” and getting his “a*s touched” before coming back with the chorus. “TakeDat” does get repetitive by the end of its four-minute runtime, but it is ultimately an effective diss.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new diss, “TakeDat” by Gucci Mane? Does Gucci Mane effectively body Sean “Diddy” Combs? Do you like the rhyme scheme and chorus of the track? Do you think Diddy will get a chance to respond? We want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Quotable Lyrics:

Diamonds dancin’ on my chest, no Diddy
But I blow a n**ga car up like he Curtis (Huh?)
I’m on the yacht, takin’ shots, no Diddy (Woah)
Pay for top from the thot, no Diddy (Damn)
Some n**gas wanna boss me, I’m not 50 (Uh-uh)
But get a n**ga a*s touched like Biggie, no Diddy
