Wiz Khalifa and Curreny make me feel old and shit with their new collaborative album, 2009. You’ll be happy to know that it does indeed hold up to the sound and style of their music from a decade ago, and that Cardo and Harry Fraud have beats on the project. Stream below.
New project from the super-dope YungManny. Lil Gray, GoodIntent 👀 and Splurge are the only features, because Manny does most of the heavy lifting himself. If you like the project, buy it on iTunes.
Money Mon ramps up the machine for his upcoming mixtape, Hoofn & Hoomn 2. The video for “No Internet”, shot by Billiondollar Dream, and featuring up-coming star Young Jordan, is the latest.
Gray snapped on “Locksmith”, produced by Shawn The Dawn. That Yung Clip shoutout was dope too. “Locksmith”, shot by Reggie Regg, is out now.
I’m going to let the fact that Kingpin Slim basically said he wouldn’t come over the bridge to Virginia for any reason slide, and acknowledge that I fuck with this new freestyle featuring long-time collaborator Lambo. I also acknowledge that Virginia is very much entrenched in many levels of institutional racism, but I don’t think that means that you shouldn’t fuck with people out here, who have to live in that sytem everyday. That’s besides the point of this post though, enjoy this freestyle, Kingpen always comes with the flames.

co starring Tia Reid, Verge of LUI & Myyrh Made.
I’ve been a Dutchmaster fan since 2012? It’s good to see that he’s thriving alongside some of Baltimore’s newer popular rappers and propelling his art forward with interesting moves (like co-directing this video, and having Brent Faiyaz star in it.)
Alamo signee Slimelife Shawfty links up with fellow YSL member Zack for “Whatever Y’all On”, shout by Diesel Filmz, produced by Protege Beatz.
Missed this Dope tay freestyle from last month, shout by Polish’d Productions. Somebody tell Tay to drop that new shit with Yung Lan too!
One of DC’s most talented floats on “Nino Brown”. The Southside takeover continues, expect more from Riff soon. Shot by DOPE ZX.
Dreamville’s most-talked about artists (not named J Cole) link with Thugger for the very inspirational “Proud Of U”, produced by Venus (of EarthGang) and mixed by Alex Tumay. Their official debut album MIRRORLAND is “90% done”. Stream “Proud of U” above, or see the tweet below about MIRRORLAND.
We literally been working on #Mirrorland since January. 🤦🏾♂️ it’s been a journey, a lot of lessons, back and forth, a lot of ears and opinion but we are finally 90% DONE 🎭🎭🎭

Twinn AKA Twinnski killed his verses on Breezy In Wonderland, and keeps the momentum going with his new video “Breakdown”, shot by Dope ZX.
“She my Sour Patch, good and Bad” JABB chants in his ode to the girl who can’t be tied down. “Sour Patch”, his newest single, pays tribute to that friend with benefits that you wish would let you take them out. Available for stream and download on all platforms
Two of the hottest in Atlanta link for “Right 1.” Presumably from an upcoming mixtape by producer Mooktoven.
