Its been a long time since the peak of Rich Homie Quan's career. Platinum hits, touring with Young Thug and YSL, and cosigns from the entire hip hop industry. Fast forward to now, he still has respect in the industry but has lacked in hits lately. But he's aiming to change that narrative and get back to where he was with his new releases. He just released a new music video called 'Stuffed' and its insane. From the flow, style, and beat selection, Quan has moved with the times seamlessly. The short song leaves you wanting more, almost mad that it ended so soon. Making a hard statement for a comeback, the visual actually follows up his album released in November. The project entitled 'Family & Mula Reloaded' only has 1 feature from No Cap. Its 15 tracks long and full of bangers from start to finish. If any has a case to make a big splash on a comeback, its Rich Homie Quan. His style and demeanor fits right in like he never left. Check out the music video below.

One of New York's hardest rappers and new father, A$AP Rocky, is back with a vengeance. After a hiatus from music, and taking his relationship with pop icon Rihanna to new heights in parenthood, he came hard on his new song and music video. The single, called Shittin' Me, is one of the hardest drops of the year. The music video revisits one of his less than favorable moments performing this year at the Rolling Loud Festival. He was crowd surfing when a fan allegedly grabbed his genitals and wouldn't let go. His shocked face went viral as countless memes came flooding in. The visual recreates this moment, but with a twist. Instead of the meme worthy reaction, in the video Rocky ends up dead as a result of it. Crazy right? In the remainder of the video, his team and everyone tries their best to keep him alive, but to no avail. They end up turning him into a puppet to continue to make money. Peep the intensely eccentric video below

She stood out as she performed two new songs, “Blind” and “Shirt.” She also appeared in skits in addition to her live performances. While she’s preparing for the release of her next album, SZA says she doesn’t “see longevity” in her music career. “I feel like music, in this capacity, I don’t see longevity,” she recently told Billboard. “I like to create, I like to write, I like to sing, and I like to share. But I don’t know if chasing after superstardom or whatever I’m supposed to be doing right now is sustainable for me or for anybody. Imma take a good swing at it, and Imma give em my absolute best.”

Florida rap powerhouse Kodak Black just named one of the people that give him the greatest avice, and its not who you might think. Kodak is all about taking on new challenges in the industry, and making his voice heard. Recently, he’s revealed that J.Cole is one person who gives him great advice when things get rocky and he needs guidance. At the American Music Awards (AMA), the southern artist caught up with Hip Hop DX and spoke about the lyrics on J Cole's 2019 hit, Middle Child. “J. Cole, I rock with him tough,” Kodak Black said. “He gives me great advice, and he wanna see me win.” He continued, explaining how Cole’s advice is different from others because of his delivery. “Some people will try to hold information back, he give it to me raw and stuff like that.” Naturally though, we know Kodak Black’s words were a response to J. Cole’s verse on “Middle Child,” where he expresses his thoughts that Yak needs “more guidance,” while speaking on his ties with multiple generational Hip Hop artists such as JAY-Z and 21 Savage. “I’m dead in the middle of two generations/ I’m little bro and big bro all at once/ Just left the lab with young 21 Savage/ I’m ’bout to go and meet Jigga for lunch/ Had a long talk with the young n-gga Kodak/Reminded me of young n-ggas from ‘Ville/ Straight out the projects, no fakin’, just honest/ I wish that he had more guidance, for real,” Cole raps on the track.

When it comes to longevity in the rap game, few can do what Jay-Z and Nas have done. The statement still rings true to this day, as the New York legends are now tied for the most top 10 albums on the Billboard Hot 200. Nas's latest album drop, Kings Disease III, puts him at 16 entries along with his rival. Its been a long time coming since he dropped his first studio album, It Was Written, in 1996. The project had the top spot for four weeks straight at the time. Between the two rap powerhouses, NY continues to live up to its name as the Hip Hop Mecca. Nas always jokes about the once serious feud between him and Hov is never over. Although it seems to have diminished to a playful level, its good to see rivalry still alive in hip hop. On his new album, Nas raps: “No beef or rivals, they playing ‘Ether’ on Tidal. Brothers can do anything when they decide to. In a Range Rover, dissecting bars from ‘Takeover.’ Sometimes I text Hova like, ‘N####, this ain’t over,’ laughing,” raps Nas on “Thun.” Check the song below

Many people are saying that she dropped it during this period of mourning in an act of pettiness towards Quavo. Others are saying it just happened to be that kind of bad timing, but it wasn't purposefully done. What do you guys think? Check out the song below

Q Marsden, better known as his artist name, Q, has been putting out nothing but amazing art that goes underrated. The talented vocalist just released a new single called 'Today' and its nothing but a big vibe. The cinematic and soulful jam is a refreshing blend of old school funk with a modern feel. The beginning of the song is just vocals and melody, giving more weight to the actual lyrics and emotion. The 2nd half of the song, when the drums and rhythm come in, breathes life into the track and make you move without knowing. One of the things about Q is that his visuals are just as much art as his music. The concepts for all his music are astoundingly creative. Not surprisingly so, as he refers to himself as a musical "scientist." Check out the single and music video down below
