Don’t sleep. Nipsey Hussle has been on a tirade, and has mounds of new material to show for his upcoming album. Along with a visual for “Picture Me Rolling,” the South Central LA wordsmith returns today with a new track titled “I Don’t Stress.”

OVO Sound’s PARTYNEXTDOOR returns today with big news and a new track to boot.

Mixtape Weezy, is that you? The time-tested tandem of DJ Drama and Lil Wayne are back, at least for a moment, on the intro of the former’s upcoming Quality Street Music 2 album.

Hey, Desiigner can’t help who he sounds like, so now it’s about cranking out more than one hit. The Def Jam rapper attempts just that with the hotly anticipated “Tiimmy Turner” single. 

As rap fans await what’s in store for the second half of 2016, a handful of new artist made their presence felt during the first six months of the year. Let the Internets tell it, Lil Yachty could be the most polarizing.

Along with “No Shopping,” which featured a Drake verse dissing Joe Budden, French Montana used Saturday’s OVO Sound Radio to premiere his new track “Two Times.” The CDQ arrives today.

As far as Hip-Hop hotbeds go, Atlanta continues to show and prove. Today, rising rapper 21 Savage builds on the momentum of being named a 2016 XXL Freshmen with the release of a collaborative album with honorary ATLien Metro Boomin titled Savage Mode.

Producer Clams Casino returns with ambient, haunting sound on “Be Somebody,” a song featuring A$AP Rocky and Lil B.

Last week, Black communities were reminded for the umpteenth time that racial injustice of a deadly variety, at the hands of police no less, is always a tangible reality. Of course, Hip-Hop provides a voice to the voiceless in these moment, and its commentary couldn’t be better timed and more needed.

When Gucci Mane claimed to have 30 children, all of whom are rappers, producers and DJs, that wasn’t a diss. Migos, three admitted descendants of Big Guwop, rhyme alongside their OG on a new track titled “Now.”
