Former TDE rapper Reason is back with some passionate raps to open up his 2026 in the form of a three-song EP "Don't Play With My Heart."

California product REASON is keeping it 100 on this new three-pack, Don't Play With My Heart. It's out as of today and serves as a way to tide fans over before the main event he's working on. In an Instagram post yesterday, the former TDE signee wrote, "I’m working on a special project ima start rolling out next month but in the meantime I wanted to give yall some special records to me with some of the homies!!!" Those "homies" include Dreamville affiliate Cozz and the beloved Deante' Hitchcock. Across the trio of tracks, REASON vents about the things weighing on his mind, such as those praying on his downfall. Or on the opening title cut, the veteran sounds off on the clout chasers, rap beefs, and everything else damaging hip-hop in his eyes. It's a cathartic series of songs for REASON and one that drives excitement for what's to come on this upcoming album.

About The Author
Zachary Horvath is one of the Music Freelance News Writers at HotNewHipHop and has held that title since August 2023. Prior to this position, he held another freelance gig covering local high school football, girls and boys varsity basketball, in addition to recapping Cleveland Cavaliers games remotely. He's taken the previous experience and used it to become a jack of all trades at HotNewHipHop. Zach has thoroughly enjoyed tackling some of the trending topics in sports, with a larger focus on hip-hop and pop culture. Some of those include Bronny James's draft stock, a multitude of angles swirling around the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef, as well as Diddy's arrest and lawsuits. Separate from the headlines that everyone wants to hear about, he was fortunate enough to help spread Zaytoven's current thoughts at the time around mid-December in 2023. Even though being able to give his expertise on these stories is fulfilling, being able to share his passion for releases trumps that ever so slightly. Having the chance to express his excitement indirectly about what he thinks our readers should be checking out/revisiting grows his passion for writing that much more.
