Video: YN Jay & Louie Ray – “The Mafia”

The Prolific Rapper Shares A Video from The Scouts, a 2020 Collab Tape From Jay & Ray

Critical Praise:

“There is Bruce Wayne and Batman. Clark Kent and Superman. And now, YN Jay and the Coochie Man” – Pitchfork

“Flint, Michigan wouldn’t be one of the hottest scenes in rap without ‘Coochie,’ ‘Coochie World,’ ‘Coochie Scout,’ a mixtape titled Coochie Land, and Coochie Man, the floor-humping alter ego of YN Jay.” – Pitchfork

“‘Coochie’ is one of the funniest hip-hop videos of the last five years” – XXL

“The Flint native is one of the more eccentric rappers in Michigan, rapping about coochie, using very distinct ‘hold onnnnnnnnnnnnn’ ad-ibs, and starting off songs by asking the producer: ‘Why you always do that mannnnnnnn?’ I’m honestly not sure what these producers are doing while YN Jay is recording in the booth, but whatever it is, it’s working. The music is always wildly entertaining.” – Complex

“He raps in different voices, draws out words like they’re self-contained riddles. You never know if he’s entirely serious, but that’s the point.” – SPIN

The Video:

YN Jay is a restless creative, constantly feeding his fans highly-quotable songs and engaging music videos. This weekend, Jay teamed up with his regular collaborator Louie Ray to share “The Mafia,” a new music video. A highlight from Jay & Ray’s 2020 collab album The Scouts, “The Mafia” samples Nino Rota’s legendary soundtrack from The Godfather as the two Flint natives show off their inimitable chemistry and wild lyricism. Directed by SPRK, the deliberately lo-fi video for “The Mafia” is a testament to the two rappers’ bond and their devotion to their hometown. “The Mafia” was the second video that YN Jay shared over the weekend, after the video for his 2020 viral hit “Coochie Growl” ft. Rio Da Yung OG, both following the new single “Drunk When I Made This,” produced by ENRGY

YN Jay is currently trending on TikTok with his recent single “Triple S,” a collaboration with Jay’s frequent collaborator and fellow Flint native Louie Ray. The latest in a long line of viral TikTok hits, “Triple S” has inspired over 450k video views on multiple sounds–one that taps into Jay’s unique mic presence and expressive ad-libs, and another that highlights his witty lyricism–has earned over 12 million Spotify streams, and made its way onto Spotify’s U.S. Viral 50 chart. Jay recently dropped a video for “Kakashi,” a track from his recent album Ninja Warrior that also trended on TikTok (96k video creations). Earning coverage from Pitchfork, Entertainment Weekly, Mic, and many others, Ninja Warrior showcases the viral sensation’s superior beat-riding ability and boundary-pushing bars. Featuring collaborations with Lil Yachty, Sada Baby, Louie Ray, and Rmc Mike, Ninja Warrior is out now.

Driven to take rap seriously after his older brother died, the 22-year-old YN Jay quickly started to build a reputation as one of the most colorful characters in a hometown Flint scene populated almost exclusively by colorful characters. He started to get mainstream notice with his single “Coochie,” from his project Coochie Land, which introduced the world to Jay’s one-track mind and eventually racked up over 26 million YouTube views. Jay is a nearly mythic figure on TikTok, generating millions of video creations on viral hits like “Triple S,” “Coochie,” “Coochie Land,” and “Coochie Scout,” and inspiring TikTok comedian @Nuhchez to splice YN Jay’s voice into Coolio’s “Gangsta’s Paradise” and create one of the platform’s most successful running jokes. In recent months, YN Jay earned co-signs from Drake and Lil Uzi Vert, and performed in a prominent time slot during Rolling Loud‘s latest “Loud Stream” virtual festival.

Stay tuned for much more from the prolific YN Jay in the coming days and weeks.

The Background:

“It’s scary how easy it is for me to make music,” admits 21-year-old rapper YN Jay. This is true of his 2020 hit “Coochie” and the follow-up album Coochie Land. “It was made in three minutes, easily, and the video did 30 million views. I’ve been writing songs to go a certain way my whole life, but it never worked. Now, I’m not overthinking it, and it’s making me a star.” After over a decade at the mic, the Beecher, Michigan native has given rap fans an alternative to music about violence and drugs.

Amid his rise, Jay got cosigns from Drake and Lil Uzi Vert. While Drizzy and Jay are exploring music, he recorded extensively with Uzi. The same night the two discussed collaborating, Jay stopped everything to drive to Philly. “I pulled up; we did damn near eight songs.” One track, the “coochie”-inspired “HOLD ONNNNN,” promises to release during an exciting 2021. Fresh off of Ninja Warrior—an album featuring Lil Yachty and Sada Baby that he conceptualized and recorded in a single day, YN Jay recently signed a deal with Alamo Records and is focused on showcasing his versatility and staying power. “I’m working on a few albums and letting the world know how big this is. Anybody can be a rapper; I’m trying to catch the culture and update the game.”

Yung Mal Announces 1.5 Way Or No Way, His Upcoming Mixtape, Coming 5/21 via Alamo Records

The Zone 6 Native Says Its His Way or the Highway in the Video for the Tape’s Title Track

Evolving From an Upstart to a Fixture in the Atlanta Scene, Yung Mal is Ready to Take the Next Step

Critical Praise:

“After his rise to prominence through the duo Mal & Quill through the late 2010s, East Atlanta rapper Yung Mal has ventured off for some strong solo offerings, first with last year’s Iceburg and now with his latest 6 RINGS, a quick-hitting 12-track project full of rapid fire flows and strong instrumentals from producer Pyrex.” – HYPEBEAST

“Drenched in authenticity, New Orleans-born, Atlanta-bred rapper Yung Mal is looking like the next to blow out of the south.” – XXL

“The young ATL rapper has been making strides in his city as the next-up.” — HotNewHipHop

“Yung Mal is on a fast ascension through the industry.” — ELEVATOR

“One of the most promising rising artists…Mal consistently brings interesting and unique flows onto stellar production.” — Lyrical Lemonade

“Yung Mal has been the talk of the town in Atlanta” — Karen Civil

The Announcement:

Respected in Atlanta for his malleable flow and effortlessly fly lyricism, Yung Mal is a pillar in his city’s bustling rap scene. Starting a new phase of his career as the CEO of his own 1.5 Da Label, Yung Mal announces 1.5 Way Or No Way, his upcoming mixtape. Emulating his mentor Gucci Mane, Mal is determined to put his crew on his back, carrying them out of Zone 6 and into prominence. Mal’s rhymes are more polished and precise, keeping the same tricky rhythms and bar-line manipulations that characterize his flows but adding some well-earned perspective to give context to his flexes. Featuring appearances from Pooh Shiesty, G Herbo, and more, 1.5 Way Or No Way arrives on May 21st via Alamo Records.

Along with the announcement of the mixtape, Mal shares the video for “1.5 Way Or No Way,” the tape’s title track. A downtempo trap banger marked by ethereal vox and gently-plucked guitars, Mal exudes the confidence and calm of a young boss. He takes time to dwell on his hardships (his dad passing away when he was young, going through a trial at age 18), to celebrate his ability to keep momma and his crew fed, and to unleash his finely-tuned flexes: “I turned this sh*t to a whole damn label/They thought I wasn’t able, huh/I’m high but my thoughts be stable.” In the video, Mal and his crew flex in Zone 6, chanting the song’s title as they flash their ice. At the end of the ShotByWolf-directed clip, Mal takes his crew to the jewelry store and buys them all their own 1.5 chains.

“1.5 Way Or No Way” is the latest in a line of quality visuals from the 25-year-old artist. Earlier this month, Mal sipped champagne and showed off auto-tuned melodies in “Belaire.” “Belaire” followed the videos for “Look At Me Now” and “Stay Down,” which features a cameo appearance from NLE Choppa. The upcoming 1.5 Way Or No Way is Mal’s first mixtape since his successful two 2020 releases: 6 Rings, a full-length collab with rising producer Pyrex Whippa that received praise from publications like HYPEBEAST and XXL, and Iceberg Sosa, produced in full by Memphis producer Sosa808 (Key Glock, G Herbo), which featured highlight video singles like “Hitstick” and “Own Drip.”

Professor Key Glock Hosts a Band-Getting Master Class in “I Can Show You”

4.21.2021

Video: Key Glock – “I Can Show You”

“I Can Show You” is the Latest Video From Dum & Dummer 2, Glock’s Top Ten Collab Album with Paper Route EMPIRE Head Honcho Young Dolph

The Video:

A master of blunt force lyricism, Key Glock has a single-minded devotion to growing his bankroll. Giving game from a Gingham throne, Key Glock shares “I Can Show You,“ his latest video. Produced by Bandplay and Yung Hurricane, “I Can Show You” combines lo-fi strings that would fit in a RZA instrumental with thumping dirty south percussion, as Glock peppers the track with ad-libs and not-so-friendly advice for those trying to be like him: “I can show you how to get money, my n****/Just get up-up off your ass.”

In the video, Glock pontificates in an empty warehouse, rocking an MCM beanie as he does his money dance. Following last week’s video for “Move Around” (1.3 million views), “I Can Show You” is the latest video from from Dum & Dummer 2, the acclaimed and successful collaborative album from Key Glock and his Paper Route EMPIRE boss and frequent sparring partner Young Dolph.

Debuting at #8 on the Billboard 200, Dum & Dummer 2 generated nearly 36k sales equivalent units across platforms and scored the fifth-biggest streaming debut on Spotify during its first week of release. Earlier this month, the album received a glowing review from Pitchfork, who awarded the album a 7.5 score and cemented Young Dolph & Key Glock as a “once-in-a-generation” rap duo, akin to 8Ball & MJG or Method Man & Redman, and “one of the most in-sync alliances in the genre today.” Dum & Dummer 2 is the duo’s second Top 10 album, following the original Dum and Dummer, which debuted at #8 in 2019.

Dum and Dummer 2 finds Dolph & Glock operating at a high level of craftsmanship, charisma, and luxury. With artwork that references MTV’s most famous duo, Beavis & Butthead, Dum & Dummer 2 establishes the two rappers (and cousins) as two halves of the same brain, each seamlessly picking up threads and finishing lines that the other leaves off. With production from PRE’s own Bandplay, among others, Dum & Dummer 2 is home to a series of standout singles, including the hauntingly flex-heavy“Case Closed,“ the classily ratchet “Sleep With The Roaches,“ the ice cold opening track “Penguins,” the Young Dolph-directed “RAIN RAIN,” and the soulful winter-weather celebration “Aspen,” which has over 7 million views on YouTube.

Dum & Dummer 2 is available everywhere via Paper Route EMPIRE.

Morray Shares “Trenches” from 4/28 Debut Project Street Sermons

Go to Post

4.21.2021

Video: Morray – “Trenches”

Appearing on Morray’s 4/28 Debut Project Street Sermons, “Trenches” is the Fayetteville, NC Rapper’s Latest Music Video to Arrive in the Wake of His Hot 100 Hit “Quicksand”

Critical Praise:

“Few crooning rappers have his polish, resonance, and soul.” – SPIN

“With only four songs on streaming platforms—all released in 2020—Fayetteville, North Carolina rapper Morray has already proven he’s a hitmaker. His debut single “Quicksand” is undeniable, anchored by the type of hook you get from a Roddy Ricch or Rod Wave song and infused with storytelling and charisma to paint a picture even if you’re unfamiliar with the newcomer.” – Pigeons & Planes

The Video:

Morray is quickly climbing to the top of the rap game with his impassioned and melodic street music. Preparing for his imminent debut project Street Sermons, Morray shares “Trenches,” his latest high-quality video single. Marked by rippling piano and operatic vocal samples, “Trenches” is a heartfelt message from Morray to those currently going through the struggle–he sees them and recognizes his own struggle in theirs. The song is blessed by an impassioned vocal performance from Morray, who leans into his voice’s frayed edges, feeling in his soul every word that he delivers through the mic: “In the hood, you gotta find out what works/And if you get it to work you still end up hurt/And what hurts can make you feel even worse/And what’s worse is that’s not even the worst.”

Set in Morray’s home neighborhood of Fayetteville, NC, the “Trenches” video shines a spotlight on neighborhood denizens young and old, providing a face for the struggle that the rapper describes in his lyrics. The rapper indulges his inner preacher, delivering his verses from the steps of a local church and visits a cemetery to commemorate his fallen friends. Though the circumstances are tough, Morray and his neighbors are able to find joy in community and music. “Trenches” is the latest video from Street Sermons, out April 28th via Pick Six Records/Interscope.

Announced last week during an interview with The Breakfast Club, Street Sermons taps into the spiritual uplift and church-trained singing that makes Morray’s brand of hip-hop so unique, taking unflinching looks at Morray’s youthful struggles and indiscretions and examining his motivations to succeed. The upcoming Street Sermons gives a home to “Quicksand,” the rapper’s debut single which currently sits at #85 on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as standout singles like the gospel-inflected “Kingdom,” the hard-nosed betrayal ballad “Switched Up,” and the aspirational “Big Decisions.” Street Sermons releases on April 28th via Pick Six Records/Interscope.

Since last October, Morray has established himself as one of the rap game’s most exciting new artists, earning “one to watch” designations from Complex, Billboard, SPIN, Pigeons & Planes, and many more. Signed to Pick Six Records in partnership with Interscope, he made an instant impact with “Quicksand,” drawing praise from across the industry and the internet. “Quicksand” has over 100 million streams (including YouTube views), and is in current rotation on BET. It is currently charting at #9 on YouTube’s US Music Video chart, at #15 on Shazam’s U.S chart , and at #10 on urban radio. Morray’s hit song can be found on the Rap Caviar, Most Necessary, and The Realest Down South playlists on Spotify and the #OnRepeat, Rap Life and The Plug playlists on Apple Music. Thanks to “Quicksand” and its follow-up releases, Morray earned powerful co-signs from all over the rap game, including from fellow North Carolina rappers J. Cole and DaBaby.

With the upcoming Street Sermons, Morray culminates his meteoric rise and proves that he’s ready to build an artistic legacy and a nest egg for his wife and kids. For an artist with Morray’s talent, the sky is the limit.

Morray is featured on New Music Daily on Apple Music.

4.20.2021

Texas Trapper Wacotron Shares Smokin Texas, His Debut Mixtape, Out Now via Pick Six Records/808 Mafia

The Rapper Shares the Raw Video for the Marshmello-Produced “Hole In A Cup”

With Production from Southside and the Rest of 808 Mafia and an Appearance from G Herbo on the Marshmello-Produced Single “Umbrella, Smokin’ Texas Announces the Arrival of a Vital New Lyricist

Critical Praise:

“His flows are impressive and seem to naturally roll off of his tongue which shows off his masterful outlook and impressive aptitudes despite his relatively new entrance into the music scene.” – Lyrical Lemonade

“Southside protege Wacotron is a new-ish name, but he sounds like he’s been doing this for years, balancing simplicity, interiority, and the confidence of an established vet.” – UPROXX

The Mixtape + Video:

Texas trapper Wacotron is a rapper’s rapper, toe-tagging dramatic instrumentals with raw wordplay and drawly precision. Arriving fully-formed with his debut mixtape, Wacotron shares Smokin Texas, a 12-track effort. Though Wacotron is a newcomer in the rap game, he’s a veteran in the streets, and the songs on Smokin’ Texas reflect the hard-earned wisdom of a self-made man. Packed with pearls of wisdom, harrowing stories, and sly turns-of-phrase, Smokin Texas benefits from the steady hand of 808 Mafia chieftain Southside, who delivers booming production with the assistance of associates like CuBeatz, Topp, Pyrex, and more. The mixtape also features multiple productions from superstar DJ Marshmello.

The new mixtape is home to recent single “Umbrella,” produced by Marshmello and featuring a snarling guest verse from G Herbo (1 million views since its April 9th release), as well as standout video singles like “Gram And A Hoodie,” “Take Off,“ “Toothpaste,” and Wacotron’s debut release “Cut Me Up,” which has over 1 million views on YouTube. Featuring additional production from Johan Lenox and Steezefield, Smokin Texas is available everywhere via Pick Six Records/808 Mafia.

Along with the new mixtape, Wacotron shares the video for “Hole In A Cup,” a Marshmello-produced highlight from the project. Juxtaposing thumping 808s and rattling hi-hats with an eerie vocal melody, courtesy of Marshmello and co-producers MUNK and Ghostrage, “Hole In A Cup” is a haunting slice of Texas trap, purpose-built for rocking speakers in low-riders from Houston to El Paso. Wacotron takes the opportunity to flex his recent successes, as he promises to carve his own path through the rap game: “F*ck a wave, I don’t know how to surf,” spits the rapper. Directed by Donthypeme & We The Shooters, the new video displays the streetwise charisma that Wacotron’s fans have come to expect.

A native of Waco, TX–hence his name–Wacotron showed a passion for music from a young age, absorbing the 808-driven trap music he listened to in the car with his dad. After spending years mired in the struggle, Wacotron turned to rap in his 20’s, searching for a better way to provide for his family and escape his circumstances. The rapper started to build a reputation in his home state, eventually catching the attention of Pick Six Records, who signed him to a deal and connected him with Southside and 808 Mafia.

A Statement From Rolling Loud:

Thank you all for your patience. We kept the faith as long as we could for the May dates, but ultimately we still face challenges that prevent us from gathering together at Rolling Loud Miami in early May.

With that being said, we are excited to announce that Rolling Loud will now take place on July 23-25, 2021 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens!

We want to extend a massive thank you to all of our ragers who have held onto their tickets. Those who can’t make the new dates will have the opportunity to obtain a refund. Information on how to obtain a refund will be sent out to ticket holders later this month. We are also working on sweetening the deal for those of you who choose to keep your tickets in addition to the rage pack you already earned from the last reschedule.

For those of you who made hotel and/or travel reservations in May, we hear your travel concerns and realize that this is not an ideal situation. Thankfully, many major airlines are not currently charging change fees, and most Miami hotels have policies in place that allow for refunds.

We can’t wait to reunite together in the pits we’ve all grown to love (and miss) so much. Many of you, like us, have been looking forward to Rolling Loud for months now. And although we may need to wait a little bit longer—trust that this comeback and reunion will be even stronger. Whether you’re a Rolling Loud veteran or a first-timer, you are about to be a part of history. Lineup, show details, on-sale, and more information coming soon, so stay tuned!

Critical Praise:

In four and a half years — beginning small in Miami, and now promoting Coachella-sized events around the country — Rolling Loud has established itself as a playground for the young…This time last year, many of the rappers now drawing crowds of several thousand were barely known.” – The New York Times

“Rolling Loud is the be-all of hip-hop festivals.” – Billboard

“The Rolling Loud New York experiment was a success—one which will likely earn it a return trip to the city in future years. Far from a traditional NYC rap experience, it was a two-day event that catered to the genre’s youngest fans, with an eye squarely focused on the future.” – Complex

“In only its fifth year with four major destinations and more in the pipeline overseas, athletes, celebrities and others are forking over as much as $20,000 for VIP packages. Of course, imitators are cropping up.” – Pollstar

“…within five years Rolling Loud has grown into one of the biggest hip-hop brands in the world. Locally, it has surpassed rival events Ultra and III Points in stature and rivals prestige festivals like Coachella.” – Miami New Times

Please contact Michelle, Kerry, or Kevin for more info.

The Background:

Founded as a one-day festival in 2015 by Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif, Rolling Loud has evolved into a global behemoth, with annual festivals in Miami, Los Angeles, New York, and the Bay Area. Postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Rolling Loud Miami is scheduled for February 2021, and Rolling Loud Portugal, the brand’s first European festival and first-ever 5-day event, recently announced the lineup for next Summer. The company’s new Twitch partnership, which includes three virtual festivals in Fall 2020, allows Rolling Loud to maintain its vital cultural role during an impossibly difficult time for festivals and live music.

About Love Death + Robots Volume 2:

Love Death & Robots is a blast of the future with its roots deep in the past. Show creator Tim Miller teamed up with director David Fincher after years of wanting to make adult animated features and short films at his animation house Blur Studio. When his directorial debut Deadpool hit big, they saw their opportunity and the anthology series found a natural home at Netflix. “We couldn’t have been happier at the response to the show,” recalls Miller, of the excitement around season one and the appetite for more. “It was exactly the kind of passionate reception from animation fans David and I hoped for, but for many long years had been told wouldn’t happen.”

For volume two, Miller was joined by Jennifer Yuh Nelson as Supervising Director. The Oscar-nominated director has vast animation experience – having worked in the industry for years and helmed Kung Fu Panda 2 and 3. Together they sought talented and diverse animation directors from around the world, for a blend of styles and stories ranging from violent comedy to existential philosophy. “It’s a tonal and stylistic Jenga game,” says Jennifer Yuh Nelson, “Trying to figure out which director might best handle what story.”

Spanish Underground Hero Yung Beef Sets a Big Mood with “INTRO” From El Plugg 2

Go to Post

4.19.21

Video: Yung Beef – “INTRO” (Prod. by FvckVibes)

Blending Elements of Trap, Reggaeton, and More, Yung Beef Looks to Turn Heads with the Opening Track from His Expansive amd Genre-Bending El Plugg 2 Mixtape

Critical Praise:

“Beef’s geographically diverse sound is unapologetic, with piercing, incisive lyrics over trap beats fused with reggaetón, salsa and more besides, and characterised by its shout-outs to various fashion brands. That all makes sense, as Beef has become a poster boy for labels like Calvin Klein and Givenchy.” – Dazed

“His swaggering aesthetic would come across as crass was it not for the quality of the music – a powerful crossroads that sees the sweaty sounds of Caribbean dembow and reggaeton collide with contemporary hip-hop.” – Highsnobiety

“Yung Beef is without a doubt one of the hottest artists coming up from overseas right now. The young Spanish rapper has been creating a buzz in Spain for a while, and is now starting to catch looks over here in America.” – Lyrical Lemonade

“One of the 25 artists shaping the future of music…A flagbearer for the new Spanish sound…Pulling his biggest tunes off YouTube, deleting releases and dropping projects by surprise have all fed into the cult status around him, while the music sounds equally unpolished, unpredictable and sporadic.” – Crack

The Video:

One of the biggest rappers in his home country of Spain, Yung Beef proves that he easily evades categorization with his new mixtape El Plugg 2. Welcoming us into his world with a snazzy visual for the project’s opening track, Beef shares “INTRO.” Produced by FvckVibez, “INTRO” demonstrates the adventurous genre-bending that makes Yung Beef stand out on the scene. The song opens with an ethereal, distorted vocal sample, which sets the vibe for the song’s first minute before the song takes an abrupt turn when devilish 808s enter the picture. The video gives a glimpse into Yung Beef’s boss life, filled with designer clothes, fast cars, and beautiful women. Taking place near Beef’s residence on Spain’s Mediterranean Coast, the eye-popping video proves that he can flex as hard as any rapper on either side of the Atlantic.

Created in collaboration with American producers like DP Beats (Playboi Carti, Lil Uzi Vert) and Beef’s frequent production partners like PipoBeats and Kid Favela, El Plugg 2 features an intoxicating combination of sounds, primarily blending the blown-out sonics and synth melodies SoundCloud-flavored trap music with reggaeton rhythms, but also incorporates elements of punk and alt-rock and more avant-garde genres like hyperpop. Throughout, Yung Beef is an ideal host, switching between hard-hitting flows and lovely melodies, all the while projecting an effortlessly cool and brazenly DGAF attitude that transcends language barriers.

The sequel to Yung Beef’s 2018 El Plugg Mixtape, which featured production from Mexiko Dro and generated over 21 million streams worldwide, El Plugg 2 is a testament to Yung Beef’s restless creativity, painting the fullest picture yet of his wide-ranging artistic tastes and talents. The mixtape is home to Dragon Ball Z-referencing lead single “MAJIN VEGETA,” which reached over one million views on YouTube in less than a week, and last week’s “P ROBLEMAS MUSICALES,” an immersive cloud trap collaboration with Beef’s La Venedicion label signee Uzii Gaang. El Plugg 2 features additional contributions from Goa, who connected with Beef for “Guns N Roses” on the original El Plugg, and most notably Pablo Chill-E, a frequent collaborator of Yung Beef and one of the hottest rappers in South America. Packed with enough artistic ideas to fill 24 tracks, El Plugg 2 is available everywhere via La Venedicion / EMPIRE.

Filtering genres such as trap and reggaeton through his rebellious perspective, Yung Beef is turning heads in Spain and beyond for his intoxicating blend of sounds. The prolific artist generated over 70 million streams on his four 2020 projects, including Shishi Plugg, a collaborative project with Pablo Chill-E that featured the single “No Nos Pueden Suportar“ (the first song by a Spanish rapper to gain more than 1 million views on the WorldStarHipHop YouTube channel), and Sonrisas, which featured production from Brodinski and a guest spot from 645AR. Boasting a YouTube following of more than 244k subscribers, the Spanish icon had a busy live schedule planned for 2020, before the pandemic hit, including a duo spot at Lollapalooza Chile with Pablo Chill-E, and his own curated stage at Primavera Sound in Barcelona. Expect Yung Beef to pick up where he left off with these festivals in 2022.

He’s already got his home country on lock, but with El Plugg 2, Yung Beef plans to emulate his idol Young Dolph and make waves in the American rap scene as an independent artist. Don’t bet against him.

FL Riser Taleban Dooda Packs Heat in “Chopstix” (Produced by Internet Money)

Go to Post

4.16.2021

Video: Taleban Dooda – “Chopstix” (Prod. by Internet Money)

The 18-Year-Old Tampa Native Shares a Cinematic Video Off His 5/14 Debut Album Fallen Angel

Critical Praise:

“At only 18 years old.. his talents are already overly abundant and his potential is probably higher than most up and coming artists you could name off the top of your head.” – Lyrical Lemonade

“He falls into the lane of melodic street rap that acts like YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Lil Durk, Teejay3k, and others are making, but his high-pitched vocals and limitless subject matter set him apart.” – Earmilk

The Video:

Taleban Dooda is cutting a blazing path through a bustling Florida scene with his angelic tenor. Reveling in his kingpin aspirations, Dooda starts to build an empire with “Chopstix,” his new video single. Populated with demonic vox and sinister stabs of organ from Internet Money, “Chopstix” finds Dooda adopting a slow-moving, stuttering flow, using sporadic bursts of wild melody to keep the opps on their toes: “He better watch how he move, 7.62s knock him outta his shoes/They know we breakin’ the rules, we the ones puttin’ the bass in the boom.”

In the video, directed by Joshua Valle, Dooda gives a glimpse into his illicit organization, as he embraces his inner Tony Montana takes care of business in all senses of the phrase. “Chopstix” is the latest energetic visual from the Tampa native’s upcoming debut album Fallen Angel, following “Trappin Ain’t Dead,” the Helluva-produced Detroit-style anthem with a standout guest spot from 42 Dugg.

Bursting with invention and earworm hooks, Fallen Angel gives a home to recently released highlights like “Chosen” ft. T9ine, a gospel-influenced anthem that earned praise from Pitchfork and HipHopDX (who named the song one of the Best Hip-Hop Songs of 2021 So Far) and counts 3 million total streams, and the tuneful “No Eater,” released last month and featured prominently on Spotify’s Fresh Finds playlist. Embodying the pain and triumph that accompanies the struggle of making it out the hood, the new album capitalizes on a growing momentum that started when Dooda’s debut single “Tru Colors” (included on Fallen Angel as a bonus track) caught fire upon release last January. Featuring additional appearances from Yung Bleu, Dee Watkins, and OMB Peezy, Fallen Angel releases on May 14th via Green Light Music Group/Rostrum Records.

Taleban Dooda has been steadily building a fanbase over the past year, displaying a natural melodic ability that helps him stand out among street rappers in Florida and beyond. He scored street hits in the first half of the year with “Tru Colors” (over 3 million total streams) and “2 In Da Morning” (1 million views), and turned heads in the fall with standout singles like “Dis Dooda,” which Vice named as one of the 24 Best Songs of September. Stay tuned for more releases from Dooda in the run-up to his debut album, and his first-ever full length project, Fallen Angel.

The Background:

Taleban Dooda always had a voice–a combination of distinctly Floridian style and irresistibly catchy melody, has made the 18-year-old rapper one of the most exciting new rap voices coming out of the South. Hailing from East Tampa, Dooda had few options to avoid the violence that lurked outside his door. When he injured his knee in his 9th grade year, ending his football dreams, Dooda turned his attention to music. He began by recording himself covering other people’s songs — inspired by his love for artists like Bruno Mars, John Legend, and Sam Smith — before moving on to his own original compositions. Influenced by artists like NBA Youngboy, Polo G, and NoCap, Taleban Dooda decided to become a rapper.

For Dooda, 2020 was all about consistency, as he continued to drop a steady stream of strong singles throughout the year. In September, he released “Dis Dooda” — which VICE named one of the best songs of the month and Lyrical Lemonade highlighted on their site — and followed that up in November with the TM88 and ATL Jacob-produced “Finish Him.” Now, Dooda has his eyes set on the upcoming release of his debut album. With all this momentum, and all of Florida behind him, he doesn’t plan to slow down any time soon. “I’m just trying to keep dropping music,” he says. “I ain’t trying to take no breaks.”

“Coochie Man” YN Jay Wilds Out in “Drunk When I Made This” Single

Go to Post

4.16.21

Video: YN Jay – “Drunk When I Made This” (Prod. by ENRGY)

The Flint Native Connects with Frequent Producer ENRGY for a Quotable Slapper

Critical Praise:

“There is Bruce Wayne and Batman. Clark Kent and Superman. And now, YN Jay and the Coochie Man” – Pitchfork

“‘Coochie’ is one of the funniest hip-hop videos of the last five years” – XXL

“He raps in different voices, draws out words like they’re self-contained riddles. You never know if he’s entirely serious, but that’s the point.” – SPIN

The Song:

Capable of launching a viral trend with a stray ad-lib, Flint native YN Jay is taking the internet by storm. Flashing his famous sense of humor and effortlessly fly flow, the artist known as “Coochie Man” shares “Drunk When I Made This,” a new single. With thumping drums courtesy of Jay’s frequent collaborator ENRGY, “Drunk When I Made This” finds an inebriated Jay rattling off a succession of stream-of-consciousness witticisms about his favorite topic: “You can only have me for one day like a white tee, girl/B*tch, I’m tired of going back and forth like hockey, girl/B*tch just do it for a check, she a nice girl/B*tch knew I was gonna cheat before I did, she a psychic girl.” The 22-year-old artist alternates rhymes with the expressive ad-libs that made songs like “Triple S” viral hits on TikTok and beyond. “Drunk When I Made This” is Jay’s second new song in less than seven days, following the off-kilter video single “Yeessiirrrr,” which has over 120k YouTube views since it dropped last weekend.

Inspired to take rap seriously when his older brother died, the 22-year-old YN Jay quickly started to build a reputation as one of the most colorful characters in a hometown Flint scene populated almost exclusively by colorful characters. He started to get mainstream notice with his single “Coochie,” from his project Coochie Land, which introduced the world to Jay’s one-track mind and eventually racked up over 26 million YouTube views. Jay is a nearly mythic figure on TikTok, generating millions of video creations on viral hits like “Triple S,” “Coochie,” “Coochie Land,” and “Coochie Scout,” and inspiring TikTok comedian @Nuhchez to splice YN Jay’s voice into Coolio’s “Gangsta’s Paradise” and create one of the platform’s most successful running jokes. In recent months, YN Jay earned co-signs from Drake and Lil Uzi Vert, and performed in a prominent time slot during Rolling Loud‘s latest “Loud Stream” virtual festival.

Stay tuned for much more from the prolific YN Jay in the coming days and weeks.

Big Jade Shares Charged Up “Bonnet” Freestyle

Press Release

Big Jade Shares Charged Up “Bonnet” Freestyle

Go to Post

4.13.2021

Video: Big Jade – “Bonnet” (Freestyle) (Prod. by BeatKing)

Ahead Of Her Alamo Records-Debut Album, The Buzzing, Beaumont, Texas MC Shares A Charged Up And Confident New Freestyle.

Critical Praise:

“Beaumont, Texas loudmouth Big Jade has the best music videos. They’re a much needed break from the endless stream of fifteen dudes stuffed into an Airbnb, pointing guns at the shaky cameraman, and doing donuts in rented cars outside.” – Pitchfork

“This unrivaled skill, confidence, and charisma are the attributes that make Big Jade so interesting.” – Lyrical Lemonade

The Video:

With a commanding mic presence and a take-no-prisoners attitude, Big Jade is one of the most vital voices in a bustling Texas rap scene. Today, she’s back with a brand new freestyle, titled “Bonnet.” While coming in at just under a minute and fifteen seconds, Jade is able to pack a heavy punch with her swift bars and lyrical flow. Sampling the Missy Elliott classic, “Hot Boyz,” BeatKing comes through with a perfect canvas for Jade to talk her sh*t. In the self-directed video, we find Jade at home, cooking breakfast and getting her daughter ready for school. Its moments like these where Jade is at her realest and rawest, finding no reason to sugarcoat anything as she aims to snatch the Texas rap crown.

This is Jade’s latest release ahead of Pressure, her upcoming debut project, slated to release in Spring 2021. Featuring production from the likes of BeatKing–Jade’s rap game mentor, who discovered her through her freestyle videos on YouTube–DJ Chose, and Bankroll Got It, Pressure provides a fresh spin on the traditional sounds of Texas rap, packing enough oomph in the low-end to satisfy Houston club-goers. Jade rhymes from her unique perspective, as a bisexual single mother and part-time hairdresser determined to ascend to the top of the game with her pure, athletic rapping. Home to recent singles like “No Hook” and the DJ Chose-produced “Gucci Bag” and following in the wake of a series of verbally dexterous freestyle videos (including “Groupies“), Pressure releases next month via Alamo Records.

Born and raised in Beaumont, a small city in East Texas far removed from industry hubs like Houston and New Orleans, Big Jade built an online following with her unapologetic realness. In popular videos like “RPM” and “Phone Jumpin,” praised by Pitchfork, Jade exists in her element, showing off her rapping ability while styling hair, her longtime day job. Her brief, but visceral trap bangers caught the attention of BeatKing, who took her under his wing and offered her guest verses and some of his fieriest beats. In late 2020, Jade joined up with her mentor BeatKing for the Texas trap slapper “Respectfully,” also featuring an appearance from Queendome Come. Jade keeps her fans entertained with a regular supply of freestyles, like the recent “Before The Deal,” that show off her bars and indefatigable demeanor. Now with the backing of Alamo Records, Big Jade is ready to make the leap from being the pride of her town to a nationally recognized star.

Please contact Michelle or Kevin for more info.

The Background:

“I got the attention of the right people by being genuinely myself,” explains rapper Big Jade.

From Beaumont, Texas, the 26-year-old spitter made a name for herself by releasing a series of videos online that showcased her rapping ability. However, her Beatking-produced “RPM” showed a woman juggling rap dreams while doing hair. She was unashamed, unapologetic, and uncut. “It was real. That’s how I grind and get money,” admits Jade. “I’m not out here getting rap money yet; I’m popular on Instagram. Rappers are scared to say they’re doing something else just to make it. Where are you getting the money to invest in yourself and make it happen? Because that’s where it all starts for all of us.” Newly signed to Alamo Records, Big Jade took those steps to get noticed, and now she hopes to put herself and her city on the map.

Key Glock Talks Racks in His “Move Around” Video from Dum & Dummer 2

Press Release

Key Glock Talks Racks in His “Move Around” Video from Dum & Dummer 2

Go to Post

4.13.2021

Video: Key Glock – “Move Around”

The Memphis Rapper’s Flossy New Video Comes from Dum & Dummer 2, His Billboard Top 10-Charting Collab Album With Paper Route EMPIRE CEO Young Dolph

The Video:

With three Billboard Top 20 albums in the books before his 24th birthday, Key Glock is the type of guy who gets things done. Touting his myriad accomplishments on a chilly Memphis evening, Glock shares his latest video “Move Around.” Casually annihilating a minimalist instrumental, Glock methodically proves that he was born different, with the mentality and personality to conquer the rap game: “Diamonds hittin’, diamonds dancin’ like James Brown/Yeah, I’m young and rich, and I’m Black and I’m proud,” spits Glock. In the video, Glock shows off his ice as he delivers his rhymes in front of his signature Bart Simpson-yellow Lambo truck. “Move Around” is a highlight track from Dum & Dummer 2, the acclaimed and successful collaborative album from Key Glock and his Paper Route EMPIRE boss and frequent sparring partner Young Dolph.

Dum and Dummer 2 finds Dolph & Glock operating at a high level of craftsmanship, charisma, and luxury. With artwork that references MTV’s most famous duo, Beavis & Butthead, Dum & Dummer 2 establishes the two rappers (and cousins) as two halves of the same brain, each seamlessly picking up threads and finishing lines that the other leaves off. With production from PRE’s own Bandplay, among others, Dum & Dummer 2 is home to a series of standout singles, including the hauntingly flex-heavy“Case Closed,” the soulful winter-weather celebration “Aspen,” the classily ratchet “Sleep With The Roaches,“ the ice cold opening track “Penguins,” and “RAIN RAIN,” which racked up over 2.2 million views on YouTube in just one week.

Dum & Dummer 2 is available everywhere via Paper Route EMPIRE.

In March, Dolph announced the #DumAndDummer2AlbumChallenge on his Instagram. The rapper announced that he would give away $25,000 each week for the next four weeks to the winners (one winner per week). The goal of the challenge will change each week–keep an eye on @YoungDolph for the latest updates.

Critical Praise:

“There is Bruce Wayne and Batman. Clark Kent and Superman. And now, YN Jay and the Coochie Man” – Pitchfork

“He raps in different voices, draws out words like they’re self-contained riddles. You never know if he’s entirely serious, but that’s the point.” – SPIN

The Video:

Charisma and originality seems to be the name of the game these days, and nobody checks both of those boxes quite like Michigan rapper YN Jay, aka the “Coochie Man.” With an effortless ability to craft viral songs, today he returns with his latest video-single, titled “Yeessiirrrr.” On this new cut, Jay delivers an energetic flow, flexing more of his off-kilter bars and standout ad-libs that have earned him an impressive following in the midwest and beyond. The video, directed by NTRO4K Films, features Jay and his squad posted up in front of a beamer, all while he smiles ear-to-ear showing off his villainous, yet at the same time endearing, grin.

Genre-Bending Spanish Rapper Yung Beef Shares Wavy “Problemas Musicales” from El Plugg 2 Mixtape

Press Release

Genre-Bending Spanish Rapper Yung Beef Shares Wavy “Problemas Musicales” from El Plugg 2 Mixtape

Go to Post

4.9.2021

Audio: Yung Beef – “Problemas Musicales” ft. Uzii Gaang

Produced by DP Beats (Playboi Carti, Chief Keef), “Problemas Musicales” is the Latest Single From the Granada Native’s El Plugg 2 Mixtape, Coming April 16th via EMPIRE

Critical Praise:

The Song:

Garnering 70M+ total streams worldwide on four projects in 2020, Yung Beef has become one of Spain’s biggest rappers without ever pandering to the mainstream. Coming through with a room-enveloping trap banger, Yung Beef shares “Problemas Musicales,” his latest single. Produced by SoundCloud sound architect DP Beats, known for producing wavy bangers for artists like Lil Uzi Vert and Chief Keef, “Problemas Musicales” is an immersive bit of cloud trap, as Yung Beef and his La Venedicion artist Uzii Gaang toe tag seismic blasts of 808s with effortlessly fly flows. Together, the two rappers demonstrate why they’re a problem whenever they connect on a track, projecting a DGAF attitude that transcends language barriers. “Problemas Musicales” is the second standout track from Yung Beef to emerge in recent weeks, following the reggaeton-influenced, Dragonball Z-referencing single and video “Majin Vegeta,” which reached over one million views on YouTube in less than a week.

“Problemas Musicales” and “Majin Vegeta” are both singles from El Plugg 2, the Granada-born artist’s upcoming project. The sequel to Yung Beef’s 2018 El Plugg Mixtape, which featured production from Mexiko Dro, El Plugg 2 was widely acclaimed for its combination of sounds, mixing elements of Punk and alt-rock with trap music, earning over 21 million streams worldwide. Spanning 24-tracks and featuring frequent production partners like PipoBeats and Kid Favela, El Plugg 2 is a testament to Yung Beef’s restless creativity, painting the fullest picture yet of his wide-ranging artistic tastes and talents. The upcoming project features contributions from Goa, who connected with Beef for “Guns N Roses” on the original El Plugg, and most notably Pablo Chill-E, a frequent collaborator of Yung Beef and one of the hottest rappers in South America. El Plugg 2 arrives on April 16th via La Venedicion / EMPIRE and is currently available for pre-order.

Filtering genres such as trap and reggaeton through his rebellious perspective, Yung Beef is turning heads in Spain and beyond for his intoxicating blend of sounds. The prolific artist releases four projects in 2020, includingShishi Plugg, a collaborative project with Pablo Chill-E that featured the single “No Nos Pueden Suportar“ (the first song by a Spanish rapper to gain more than 1 million views on the WorldStarHipHop YouTube channel), and Sonrisas, which featured production from Brodinski and a guest spot from 645AR. The Spanish icon had a busy live schedule planned for 2020, before the pandemic hit, including a duo spot at Lollapalooza Chile with Pablo Chill-E, and his own curated stage at Primavera Sound in Barcelona. Expect Yung Beef to pick up where he left off with these festivals in 2022.

With El Plugg 2, Yung Beef plans to emulate his idol Young Dolph and make waves in the American rap scene as an independent artist. Don’t bet against him.

Foogiano, and heartfelt examinations of life on the street like recent single “Outside” ft. OG Bobby Billions, currently listed in the Top 20 of Audiomack’s Top Songs chart. Shottaz 4Eva features appearances from some of street rap’s most respected voices, including Mo’s frequent collaborator Boosie Badazz, Kevin Gates, and YFN Lucci.

Shottaz 4Eva is the sequel Mo’s breakout 2018 tape Shottaz 3.0, home to his signature hit “Everybody,” which has over 100 million streams across platforms.

With production from Splurge, Rob Stoval, Finesse Tha God, and more, Shottaz 4Eva is available everywhere via H$M Music/EMPIRE.

Though Mo3 is no longer with us, his legacy lives on in everybody who’s been moved by his music. The late artist’s family and team will continue to release music that he was able to record before his untimely passing.

Video: Yung Mal – “Belaire”

The Alamo Records Signee and His 1.5 Crew Prepare Their Takeover in a ATL-Set Video

Critical Praise:

“Drenched in authenticity, New Orleans-born, Atlanta-bred rapper Yung Mal is looking like the next to blow out of the south.” – XXL

“The young ATL rapper has been making strides in his city as the next-up.” — HotNewHipHop

“Yung Mal is on a fast ascension through the industry.” — ELEVATOR

“One of the most promising rising artists…Mal consistently brings interesting and unique flows onto stellar production.” — Lyrical Lemonade

“Yung Mal has been the talk of the town in Atlanta” — Karen Civil

The Video:

Rising from the streets of Zone 6 to the top of the ATL trap scene, Yung Mal has plenty to celebrate. Popping bottles of his favorite champagne, the Alamo Records signee shares “Belaire,” his latest video single. Switching up his vocal approach for the new song, “Belaire” finds Mal experimenting with auto-tune, giving his rhythmic patter a melodic edge as he promises to go hard every day for his: “Got rich, but the hood, I’m still there.” In the video, Mal pops a bottle of the titular champagne at an Atlanta apartment complex, mobbing with his 1.5 Da Label crew before migrating to a soundstage where he channels Diddy and employs a butler dedicated to holding his umbrella. “Belaire” is Mal’s third standout visual to hit in the past few weeks, following the flex-heavy “Look At Me Now” and “Stay Down,” which features a cameo appearance from NLE Choppa.

Yung Mal is in the midst of following up a big 2020, featuring two high-octane collaborative projects with rising producers. Released in March, 6 Rings paired Mal with Pyrex Whippa. Sporting appearances from Lil Keed, Lil Gotit, and Doe Boy, 6 Rings received praise from publications like HYPEBEAST and XXL. Later in the year, Mal released Iceberg Sosa, produced in full by Memphis producer Sosa808 (Key Glock, G Herbo), which featured highlight video singles like “Hitstick” and “Own Drip.” Ready to capitalize on his , Yung Mal looks to assume his rightful place among Atlanta’s trap elite.

Young Dolph & Key Glock’s Dum & Dummer 2 Album Debuts at #8 on the Billboard 200

Dum & Dummer 2 is the Second Collab Album From the Rappers Pitchfork Called a “Once in a Generation Rap Duo”

The Video:

“When you doin’ big sh*t, hell yeah, they supposed to hate” – Young Dolph.

Crashing charts and cashing checks, Young Dolph and Key Glock are indie rap superstars. Today, Dolph and Glock announce that their new album Dum and Dummer 2 debuted at #8 on the Billboard 200 this week. The new collaborative album generated nearly 36k sales equivalent units across platforms and scored the fifth-biggest streaming debut on Spotify during its first weekend of release. Dum & Dummer 2 is the duo’s second Top 10 album, following the original Dum and Dummer, which debuted at #8 in 2019, and Dolph’s third Top 10, following August’s #4-peaking Rich Slave.

To celebrate the success of their new album, Dolph and Glock share “RAIN RAIN,” their new music video for a highlight track from the project. Produced by PRE sound architect Bandplay, who provides vibey acoustic guitars that add to the song’s rainy day atmosphere, “RAIN RAIN” is a missive directed towards the haters, as Dolph and Glock trade tough-talking witticisms: “My time cost money, got a price tag on it,” asserts Dolph. Directed by Dolph himself, the video illustrates how the two rappers spend their ideal rainy days–the older Young Dolph kicks back in his mansion–complete with a bowling alley and a grand piano–as he thumbs through a glossy coffee table book. Meanwhile, the young-and-hungry Key Glock goes hard in a neon-lit club, rocking his Cartier glasses in the company of several beautiful women.

Dum and Dummer 2 finds Dolph & Glock operating at a high level of craftsmanship, charisma, and luxury. With artwork that references MTV’s most famous duo, Beavis & Butthead, Dum & Dummer 2 establishes the two rappers (and cousins) as two halves of the same brain, each seamlessly picking up threads and finishing lines that the other leaves off. Last week, the album received a glowing review from Pitchfork, who awarded the album a 7.5 score and cemented Young Dolph & Key Glock as a “once-in-a-generation” rap duo, akin to 8Ball & MJG or Method Man & Redman, and “one of the most in-sync alliances in the genre today.”

The album spans 20-tracks, boasting production from PRE’s own Bandplay, who shows off his musicality and versatility, along with beats from Memphis native Sosa808 and decorated producer Ramy On The Beat. Dum & Dummer 2 is home to a series of standout singles, including the hauntingly flex-heavy“Case Closed,” the soulful winter-weather celebration “Aspen,” the classily ratchet “Sleep With The Roaches,” and the ice cold opening track “Penguins.“ Dum and Dummer 2 features several solo songs from both Young Dolph and Key Glock interspersed with the heavy-hitting tag-team tracks, including Key Glock’s bombastic “I’m The Type,” and Dolph’s bite-sized ad-lib-athon “Yeeh Yeeh.”

Dum & Dummer 2 is available everywhere via Paper Route EMPIRE.

Out Now on Netflix: Concrete Cowboy, Starring Idris Elba & Caleb McLaughlin

Out Now on Netflix

Far removed from the stereotypical white men in the Old West, the Fletcher Street Cowboys have their own rich tradition of raising horses on the streets of Philadelphia. The new Netflix film Concrete Cowboy examines their way of life through the lens of a prodigal son, who returns to Philly after a long absence to spend time with his father, a leader in the cowboy community. A moving coming of age story and a nuanced depiction of a father-son relationship, Concrete Cowboy flips the myth of the cowboy on its head–a tight-knit community is more powerful than a lone ranger.

CONCRETE COWBOY INFO:

Director | Ricky Staub
Writers | Ricky Staub, Dan Walser
Based On | ‘Ghetto Cowboy’ by G. Neri
Producers | Tucker Tooley, Lee Daniels, Idris Elba, Dan Walser, Jeff Waxman, Jennifer Madeloff
Cast | Idris Elba, Caleb McLaughlin, Jharrel Jerome, Byron Bowers, Lorraine Toussaint, Clifford “Method Man” Smith

When fifteen year-old Cole (Caleb McLaughlin) is expelled from school in Detroit, he is sent to North Philadelphia to live with Harp (Idris Elba), his estranged father. Harp finds solace in rehabilitating horses for inner city cowboys at the Fletcher Street Stables, a real-life black urban horsemanship community that has provided a safe haven for the neighborhood residents for more than 100 years. Torn between his growing respect for his father’s community and his reemerging friendship with troubled cousin Smush (Jharrel Jerome), Cole begins to reprioritize his life as the stables themselves are threatened by encroaching gentrification.

Inspired by the novel “Ghetto Cowboy” by G. Neri, Concrete Cowboy is directed by first-time feature filmmaker Ricky Staub, written by Ricky Staub and Dan Walser and produced by Tucker Tooley, Lee Daniels, Idris Elba, Dan Walser, Jeff Waxman and Jennifer Madeloff. Byron Bowers, Lorraine Toussaint, Clifford “Method Man” Smith and members of the Fletcher Street Stables also co-star in this moving father-son drama about a teen caught between a life of crime and his estranged father’s vibrant urban-cowboy subculture.

Official Selection at the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival

The Late Mo3 Mobs with Foogiano in the Latest Shottaz 4 Eva Single

Go to Post

4.2.2021

Mo3’s Team Shares “Mob” ft. Foogiano, From the Dallas Rapper’s Posthumous Album Shottaz 4 Eva

Now Available For Pre-Order, Shottaz 4 Eva Releases on April 9th via H$M Music / EMPIRE

Home to Recent Single “Outside” ft. OG Bobby Billions, The 12-Track Shottaz 4 Eva is the First Album to Be Released Since Mo3’s Untimely Passing in November

The Song:

Gone far too soon, Mo3 became one of Dallas’s most respected rappers with his athletic rhymes and soulful singing. Today, H$M Music and EMPIRE reveal “Mob,” the latest single to be released in the wake of the rapper’s tragic passing. Trading bars with The New 1017’s Foogiano, Mo3’s latest single is a low-key, piano-driven banger–Mo’s animated bark perfectly contrasting Foogiano’s whimsical deadpan as they dole out street knowledge with wit and clarity.

“Mob” is the latest single from Shottaz 4 Eva, the first album to be released since Mo’s tragic passing in November 2020. The fourth album in Mo’s Shottaz series of project, which helped him build a name for himself in Texas and beyond, the posthumous album is home to “Outside,” a passionate anthem with an appearance from OG Bobby Billions, which has over 4 million YouTube views in just two weeks. Shottaz 4 Eva is the sequel Mo’s breakout 2018 tape Shottaz 3.0, home to his signature hit “Everybody,” which has over 100 million streams across platforms, and follows last year’s Badazz Mo3 and 2019’s Osama. Featuring appearances from Kevin Gates, Boosie Badazz, YFN Lucci, and more, Shottaz 4 Eva is currently available for pre-order via H$M Music/EMPIRE.
