It’s the dead of Winter outside but in the digital sphere this New Music Friday is a much needed scorcher. Freddie Gibbs, whose ascent shows no sign of slowing down, coming off his 2020 Rap Album Of The Year win, brings ScHoolboy Q out of hiding, Cardi B looks to up the ante with her follow up to “WAP,” and Chris Brown ushers in another return of the mack, tapping Mark Morrison for his latest single.
The collabs continue as J.I.D teams up with Denzel Curry, Shordie Shordie and Murda Beatz tease their collaborative project with a Trippie Redd feature and Vic Mensa brings the cross-generational fire with Chance The Rapper and Wyclef Jean.
In short, it should be a good weekend for Hip Hop fans. Let’s get into it.
