There was a new song released by A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie earlier today (May 12), titled MVP, which features the talented musician G-Eazy. In conjunction with the current broadcast of “NBA on ESPN,” the song is available for download. Developed as a collaboration between GoodJobLarry and MD$, the track uses basketball references to provide a visual representation of the collaboration’s over-the-top lifestyles while boasting about them in the same breath.
There was a time not too long ago when A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie released his fourth studio album, Me vs. Myself, which housed 22 tracks and was assisted by the likes of Kodak Black, Roddy Ricch, H.E.R., Lil Durk, and more. During the first week following the release of the album, the Highbridge talent’s album ranked No. 6 among the album-equivalent units sold during that period, which makes it his fourth consecutive single to peak in the top ten of the Billboard 200. Within days of its arrival, Me vs. Myself was upgraded to a deluxe version, which included a bittersweet track called PnB’s Rock-assisted rendition of “I Need That.”
Over the years, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie has maintained his position on the radar through loose releases like “Secrets (Remix)” by Mariah the Scientist and “No 808s” by Vory. Furthermore, he can be heard on dope cuts such as Tiësto “Chill (LA Hills),” DJ Drama “HO4ME,” Desiigner “PMR,” Tay B “Ask,” and Swizz Beatz “Say Less.”

Shaquille O’Neal assured the public that he will continue to be pleasant on the mic. It was announced yesterday (May 2) that NBA Hall of Famer KoKo would release his new single, King Talk, which features Blackway. Shaquille O’Neal posted the track to his social media accounts for the first time back in February when he used it as part of an animation video celebrating LeBron’s record-breaking first season as the NBA’s all-time leading scorer. The track opens up with Blackway delivering a hard-hitting delivery following his hard-hitting delivery that he lays out:
“KoKo and I have been exchanging beats for a while now and we have been sending each other beats back and forth. I knew I had to seize this opportunity after he played me this song,” Shaquille O’Neal explained via a press release. “There was never going to be a better moment for me to collaborate with Blackway, and this was the right time for it. My favorite part about this record is that I can feel as if I’m walking out for game seven of the NBA finals. Especially for LeBron James, the lyrics of the track and the vibe of the music were perfect for the moment when he broke the NBA scoring record. There was no doubt in my mind that I must share it with the world a king respects a king.”
As it prepares to release his EP later this summer, Ghanaian-American afrobeats and hip hop artist Blackway is steadily working up to the release of his EP. Back in March, he released his first single titled, “Lion”, which is the lead track on the album. Among his most recent projects is the 2020 album New Yhana 2, a project that featured performances from Papi ojo, Busta Rhymes, and more.

The LOX (sans Sheek Louch) as well as Fat Joe and Rick Ross brought together together for the release of a new single called “The Game,” a Mike Kuz, Buda & Grandz, and Setfree-produced single which was released in collaboration with sports betting company DraftKings as a collaboration with them. Therefore, the title track of the album is replete with bars that speak about the hard work needed to win, beginning with a powerful verse from Jadakiss about working hard.
“In the Game” includes a black-and-white clip that features action shots from current top NBA players in action accompanied by a variety of betting terms that are used when placing bets. The clip fits perfectly with the moment of the basketball league’s playoffs, a time when competition is at its peak, since the league is just entering the first stage of this season’s playoffs. The artists do not appear in any of the shows, which is unfortunate.
After decades of careers of Rick Ross in hip-hop, it is amazing to see how all parties have managed to remain relevant in the industry after decades of hard work. Living Off Xperience and Richer Than I Ever Been, the latest albums released by the LOX and Rick Ross, respectively, were released in 2020 and 2021, respectively. In the wake of the release of Fat Joe’s latest solo album, The Darkside Vol. 1, which hit land in 2010 and led to a new era of hip hop, and has continued to go from strength to strength through projects such as What Would Big Do 2021 featuring DJ Drama, Plata O Plomo featuring Remy Ma, and Family Ties featuring Dre. As of yet, it is unknown whether or not there will be more to come after “The Game”.

It’s official that Lil Mosey makes a return with his new single, “Flu Game.” In his new track, Mosey refers to Jordan’s infamous performance in the 1997 NBA Finals, game five of the Golden State Warriors series. A video directed by YUNGTADA accompanying the song, which is a tribute to the great basketball legend from Seattle, features the rapper wearing his uniform as well as mentioning him throughout his verses:
The rise of Lil Mosey to prominence was fueled by the release of his Norths best album in 2018. This 12-track collection featured a solo guest appearance by BlocBoy JB. Double-Platinum single “Noticed” was on the project. With his next album, Certified Hitmaker, Lil Mosey was once again able to tap into the talents of artists such as AJ Tracey, Trippie Redd, Gunna, and Chris Brown. “Blueberry Faygo,” the platinum-certified record he had released on his first album, was the catalyst for his run and it went on to reach the eighth position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
An earlier interview with the rapper of “Jet To The West” revealed who he wants to collaborate with and who his dream collaborator is. “Drake. During my time in the military, I met him a number of times. I was in the studio with Preme when I was in Toronto for the recording. In the middle of recording, he pulled up next to me and started talking. My meeting with him in Miami as well as in Toronto showed me that it is very likely going to happen soon. This time I’ve got some really good stuff to give him. Eventually that will be the case,” he said, adding that it would happen someday.
