The "Pound Town" hitmaker returns with a full length effort.

Following a recent breakout moment for the St. Louis rapper Sexyy Red has delivered her biggest project to date. Hood Hottest Princess follows her formula of hard-hitting sex-positive bangers. The album was preceded by three singles starting with "Born By The River" last year. The album's closing track "Female Gucci Mane" was first dropped as a single earlier this year. Her next single "Pound Town" featuring Tay Keith became her biggest hit yet. The song went from hit to smash when Nicki Minaj joined for a remix on "Pound Town 2."

The track dropped just a few weeks ago and has already racked up millions of streams. The track debuted at #66 on the Hot 100 after its first week out. It marked Sexyy Red's first entry on the Hot 100 for one of her own songs. Elsewhere on the album are even more high-profile features. The track "Strictly For The Strippers" features both Juicy J and ATL Jacob. Though the project is just over 30 minutes it is packed full of hard-hitting lyrics and beats. What's even more attention-grabbing is Sexyy Red's uncompromising personality and rapping.

Sexyy Red Brings The Bangers

Hood Hottest Princess is Sexyy Red's first new project since 2021's Ghetto Superstar. She released that record independently but her new project is released via Open Shift. Sexyy Red has had a busy year even outside of her own music. She appeared on NLE Choppa's hit song "SLUT ME OUT" earlier this year. In the song, she brought the same sexually charged intensity to that track and the accompanying music video.

She also joined fellow breakout star Kali on a remix of her hit song "Area Codes." The "314 Remix" saw the two rappers linking up for a series of slick and confident rhymes. Let us know what you think about Sexyy Red's new project in the comment section below.
