Summer’s knocking on the door, and our Fire Emoji playlist is here with the hottest hip-hop releases to get you hyped for the season.
First up, Vince Staples has dropped his new album ‘Dark Times,’ with ‘Étouffée’ being a standout track. The album is full of lyrical depth and blunt storytelling that we can’t get enough of. Meanwhile, Sexyy Red delivered a collection of tracks titled ‘In Sexyy We Trust.’ If you haven’t heard ‘U My Everything’ featuring Drake, you’re missing out.
On the album front, Sango’s ‘North Vol. 2’ features the gem ‘Ice Storm’ with Smino, definitely worth a listen. But it’s not just albums we’re talking about. We’ve got some banging singles too.
Cash Cobain’s new cut ‘Grippy’ features J. Cole and has sparked some mixed reactions. Quavo dropped ‘Clear The Smoke,’ living up to its confident and bold title. Similarly, YG’s latest track ‘Weird’ is packed with assurance as he raps about the oddities in the rap game.
Another notable mention is Don Toliver’s ‘Attitude,’ which includes contributions from Cash Cobain and Charlie Wilson. Cobain’s drill and Jersey-influenced soundscapes shine through. On the topic of collaborations, Big Hit, Hit-Boy, The Alchemist, and Hitgirl LENA make ‘Gank Move’ a lyrical heavyweight of the week.
Closing out our playlist, Central Cee teams up with Lil Baby on ‘BAND4BAND,’ furthering the UK-US crossover trend. And don’t miss Key Glock’s ‘Q-Dogz,’ which is as tough and cool as ever.
