There is good news for Nicki Minaj fans. It was announced today (Aug. 12) that the hip-hop legend will release a new single entitled “Super Freaky Girl,” a Dr. Luke and Malibu Babie production that was inspired by Rick James’ 1980 hit single “Super Freak.” Therefore, Minaj does not waste any time bragging about her sexual prowess and position over her competitors:
“Supreme Freaky Girl” follows February releases “Do We Have A Problem?” and “Bussin,” in which Minaj collaborated with Lil Baby. She would partner with current NYC frontrunner Fivio Foreign for the drill offering “We Go Up” a month later, raising expectations that a new album will be available soon.
A four-year-old Nicki Minaj released her fourth studio album Queen, which originally featured 19 tracks with contributions from Ariana Grande, Labrinth, Eminem, Foxy Brown, The Weeknd, Swae Lee, Future, and Lil Wayne. Additional tracks would be added to the album in subsequent variations, including another track featuring Weezy, titled “Good Form.” Along with reaching the second spot on the Billboard 200 (behind Travis Scott’s Astroworld), Queen has also received a well-deserved Platinum plaque for her efforts, as she aims to win the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award in 2022.
We were all surprised back in June when Drake released his seventh studio album Honestly, Nevermind, a work that saw him depart from his hip hop roots in favor of an electronic sound. The Canadian icon revealed a new visual for the soaring single “Sticky,” a Gordo and RY X production. The song features raps about Drake’s high-end lifestyle and everything that goes along with it:
Drake’s accompanying video “Sticky,” directed by Theo Skudra, showcases his typical day in keeping with the topic of the song. The lifestyle of the OVO boss is far from what is normal for us, with footage revealing him performing in front of crowds, flying in private jets, driving a hand-crafted Maybach, and much more. There will be plenty of cameo appearances by Drake’s hip-hop peers throughout the album.
It is also worth mentioning that Nevermind follows the 21-track Certified Lover Boy, which featured contributions from Lil Durk, Lil Baby, JAY-Z, Future, Travis Scott, Young Thug, 21 Savage, Lil Wayne, Ty Dolla $ign, and more. A staggering 613,000 album equivalent units were sold during its first week on the market, propelling the album to the top of the Billboard 200.
Featuring Lil Durk, Southside joins forces with 808 Mafia for “Save Me,” which embodies the heavy, street-oriented sounds that make the collective one of hip-hop’s most prolific producers. This song follows April’s “Hold That Heat,” a collaboration with Future and Travis Scott that featured all three parties boasting about their rock star lifestyles:
There is no doubt that you are familiar with Southside’s hits even if you are unfamiliar with the artist. As far as work produced under his own name is concerned, the Atlanta beatsmith has released songs such as “Been Thru This Before” featuring Saint Jhn and Giggs, “Hmmm” alongside Valee and Lil Yachty, “Blue Jean Bandit” featuring Moneybagg Yo, Young Thug, TM88, and Future and “Order” by Gunna and TM88. Along with his own work, Southside has also been responsible for classics (past and present) including Polo G “Young N Dumb,” Doe Boy “BIG OH REALLY,” Roddy Ricch “thailand,” Gunna “poochie gown,” Babyface Ray “6 Mile Show,” EST Gee “Riata Dada,” G Herbo “Locked In,” and Lil Durk “AHHH HA.”
A few of Southside’s biggest career achievements were discussed during a past interview with Complex:
The experience of watching my little brothers and sisters sing stuff I made, like beats I made or songs I composed. Once my mom sent me a text saying, “Yeah, you made that beat.” I felt like I had achieved something. There is no amount of money that can replace that feeling.”
In the midst of the summer, just when you thought Babyface Ray was about to chill after his debut album FACE was released in January 2022, he rotates the block just in time for the summer to kick in. There has been a steady increase in Michigan’s rap scene in recent years. Among the artists who have played an activetal role in this ascent, Ray is without a doubt among the most talented. He is on par with Rio Da Yung OG, Icewear Vezzo, Peezy, RMC Mike, YN Jay, etc. When all is said and done, Interscope certainly has one of the biggest stars of all time in Babyface Ray. At the rate he is progressing, he will be one of the finest artists to ever come out of Detroit. The deluxe edition of the debut album FACE was released today (May 20).
The original FACE was a hit on the streets upon its release, but the deluxe version brings more substance and does it justice. Although a number of people are hearing of Ray’s name for the first time after his debut album Unfuckwithable, the 31-year-old rapper has been pounding the pavement for a decade now based on the way he looks, but he’s been doing it for a decade now. Ray has gone from having little recognition on the national rap scene to becoming one of the most frequently referenced hip-hop artists in the Detroit community. His music has taken the scene by storm and is contributing to the growth of the Detroit hip-hop scene.
The singer, who spoke with Billboard earlier this year, offered some insight into how he envisions his career going forward: “I can’t really pinpoint what I am looking for.” Ultimately, I think it all comes down to keeping reaching and moving forward. Health and wealth for my family are top priorities for me, I also want financial stability, you see, I want what everybody else wants. The only thing I can pin down, like a certain shit, that I just want to keep going until there is no more of me.”
