The 13-track assortment options collaborations with fellow California natives BlueBucksClan, OhGeesy, and Saweetie, in addition to fellow teen sensation Luh Tyler, and extra.
Powers Nice — Life Sucks
The entire world principally turned upside-down because the Beast Coast producer’s final undertaking, 2019’s Life Is Beatiful, and he displays that change with the title of his newest. What doesn’t suck, although, is Powers’ manufacturing, which stays as futuristic and charismatic as ever. Likewise, he Nick Furies collectively a formidable lineup of rappers starting from AG Membership and Audrey Nuna on “Child Boy Is Drunk” to Bay Space swagapino standouts Guapdad and P-Lo on “I’m The Shit” to his longtime Professional Period cohorts on “SMH.”
Wealthy Homie Quan — Without end Goin In
Wealthy Homie Quan is gone however not forgotten, and true to type, his property ensures that his promise to “by no means cease goin in” nonetheless rings true along with his first posthumous launch. 2 Chainz, Lil Tjay, Plies, Skilla Child, and Sukihana all put in appearances, however Quan rolls solo on 27 of the 35(!) tracks right here, demonstrating what the rap world will likely be lacking out on in his absence.
Tay B — You’re Welcome
Hailing from Detroit, Tay B represents Moto Metropolis effectively, thanks partly to the efforts of first-time government producer Lil Child (who makes an look on “All Ten”), and partly to flashy options from fellow Motowners BabyTron and Skilla Child. Tay’s off-kilter movement pairs effectively with thunderous manufacturing from a fleet of rising beatmakers.
Tee Grizzley — Publish Traumatic
Talking of town by the lake, Tee Grizzley extends his impressively productive run with 24 new tracks that includes 42 Dugg, Fridayy, Future, G Herbo, Hunxho, J.Cole, Mariah The Scientist, and YTB Fatt. His output over the previous two years has been nothing wanting machine-like, with three initiatives in 2023 earlier than taking the ten-month break that resulted in Publish Traumatic.
38 Spesh & Benny The Butcher — “Jesus Arms” Feat. Busta Rhymes
Nearly as quickly as you hit play on the Buffalo natives’ newest, Busta Rhymes begins beating your head in with boisterous boasts over a ghoulish beat that places the misinform the belief that gritty, hardcore avenue hip-hop is useless.
Bay Swag — “Not Like Me”
Attractive drill doesn’t seem like going anyplace anytime quickly. Bay Swag takes the baton from Money Cobain and Chow Lee, sprinting for the anchor leg and guaranteeing they end 2024, the Yr of Attractive Drill, as strongly as potential.
Cochise — “Nasty” Feat. Aminé
If you happen to lately discovered your self questioning the place the heck all of the squeaky voice rappers went after that preliminary increase a few years in the past, I’m comfortable to report that Cochise seems to be preserving the custom alive. Aminé, who lately surfaced once more after the conclusion of his Kaytraminé rollout, places in an admirable look, as effectively.
Dej Loaf — “Miami Movement”
Dej Loaf’s comeback seems to be going effectively. After elevating eyebrows a few weeks in the past with “BNB,” the pint-sized Detroiter will get again to swaggering sh*t speaking on her newest. It seems a brand new album could also be in offing for Dej, which will likely be greater than welcome amongst those that by no means stopped supporting the “Attempt Me” rapper over the previous decade.
Jaden — “D.U.M.B.”
Jaden begins the rollout for his new album with a rollicking single questioning society and relationships. It’s a refreshing new path, but in addition a return to his roots after he took a tough swing into surf rock on CTV3: Cool Tape Vol. 3.
