The post Post Malone Teases Hip-Hop Return & Gets Flamed Immediately appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> After propelling his career through hip-hop and then transitioning into a rock/country artist, it appears that Post Malone is back to square one. The musician recently took to social media, where he previewed a brand new song that returns to his hip-hop bag while smoking a cigarette and downing a Bud Light. “That one mofo that don’t know when to leave…,” he captioned the post on X.

As you could imagine, there’s been a variety of responses to the snippet. For the most part, people felt like it was a rather shallow attempt to regain footing in a genre of music that propelled his career, which he eventually abandoned when it seemed less profitable. However, many Post Malone fans also believe it’s a step in the right direction. The reality is that a lot of Post Malone fans don’t care about hip-hop in the first place. So the snippet was naturally met with some resistance from hip-hop heads.

“Ah yes. Post Malone, the ultimate culture vulture. Dude went from metal to hip hop to pop to country,” one user wrote. “Bro used the image of what he assumed a black rapper was to gain profit then separated himself from it saying ‘i’m not a rapper i’m an artist’ once he started to become a household name. NOW he’s making hip hop AGAIN? Bro fuck Post Malone,” another wrote.

The snippet comes right before Post Malone is expected to touch the stage this Sunday to close out the World Cup.

]]> Fix Your Face – Album by Masego https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1002419-fix-your-face-masego Fri, 17 Jul 2026 16:55:53 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1002419 Masego's "Fix Your Face" is a lush and passionate R&B-centric project, with some great features from Leon Thomas, Keyshia Cole, and more.

The post Fix Your Face – Album by Masego appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> Masego has been a favorite in the R&B world for years, and his new album Fix Your Face may be his most emotionally potent and artistically skilled full-length yet. He doesn’t do it alone, though, as Leon Thomas, Keyshia Cole, Foggieraw, Buju Banton, Lekan, and Musiq Soulchild provide nice features to add to Masego’s introspective and vulnerable turn. The album is still groovy and lush as we’ve come to expect from him. But there’s also a newfound tenderness throughout, and it makes for a calming and healing listen. Fix Your Face also explores themes of religion, homecoming, and romance with more detail than this catalog has before, making it a rewarding experience.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: R&B / Soul

  1. Sounds Like…

The post Rich Off Pints 4 – Album by Icewear Vezzo appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> Icewear Vezzo has been a steady and strong voice out of Detroit for years now, melding blunt lyricism with measured reflection. Rich Off Pints 4, his latest installment in his catalog, is a great example of this, with versatile production and deliveries from the Iced Up Records boss. A lot of the fire from this LP also comes from featured guests Payroll Giovanni, GT, 42 Dugg, Montana 700, Peezy, Sada Baby, and Pistol Po. They contrast Vezzo’s more casual vocal tone very well without taking away from it, and the flows are always on point. While it doesn’t reinvent the Icewear wheel, you will find a lot of slick bars within.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Tracklist of Rich Off Pints 4

  1. I Can’t Go For It

The post Finessin Distribution Deals – Album by Fox BD appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> Fox BD is well aware of how sneaky and slithery the music industry can be, which is why he’s emphasizing the independent grind on his new album Finessin Distribution Deals. Across 15 tracks, YTB Fatt’s twin shows off his conversational and matter-of-fact style with ease, employing punchy and frenetic production to match his energy. The Arkansas MC also tapped various special guests to provide features on here, namely Lil Yachty, Sexyy Red, Babyface Ray, the aforementioned Fatt, and Gcode. It all goes by very fast, but it definitely makes an impact. This is Fox BD’s biggest look so far, and we’re looking forward to hearing what he does next.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

]]> Me N The Boyz – Song by Kurupt, Snoop Dogg & DJ Battlecat https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1002407-me-n-the-boyz-kurupt-snoop-dogg-dj-battlecat Fri, 17 Jul 2026 16:27:55 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1002407 "Me N The Boyz" sees Kurupt and Snoop Dogg honor their West Coast legacies over DJ Battlecat's shimmering production.

The post Me N The Boyz – Song by Kurupt, Snoop Dogg & DJ Battlecat appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> Kurupt and Snoop Dogg have been putting on for the West Coast for decades, and the Cali legends are always keeping that legacy alive. Their latest single, the DJ Battlecat-produced “Me N The Boyz,” shows that chemistry in full effect. But the sonic pallet is more reminiscent of a funk track, with horns and background vocals crafting a catchy melody for the drums and claps to crash over. Also, the flow is pretty stable throughout, and even though the song is noisy, there’s still a lot of smoothness that Kurupt and Snoop embody on the cut. Hopefully Death Row Records continues releasing throwback cuts for the West Coast.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics from Me N The Boyz

Bankrolls, bank accounts crazy as f**k,
Money everywhere, Dre, Snoop, and Kurupt,
Looking at these n***as like ticks and fleas,
You heard what Dogg said, he got M’s and B’s

The post Better Than McDonald’s – Album by Gangrene (Oh No & The Alchemist) appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> The Alchemist has many collaborative bonds, but few are as close as the one with his Gangrene partner, Oh No. The two just dropped their new album Better Than McDonald’s, which proved to be controversial. That’s because of the seemingly AI-generated cover art. But when it comes to the music, both rappers shine while Uncle Al provides evocative and typically engaging instrumentals. There’s also a laudable list of features on here from Estee Nack, Ab-Soul, Rome Streetz, Armand Hammer, Meyhem Lauren, Boldy James, and Wildchild. Better Than McDonald’s is another solid collection of raps from these titans, which fans can expect every few months at this point.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Tracklist of Better Than McDonald’s

  1. Note Ascension
  2. Forever
  3. The Xtract (feat. Estee Nack)
  4. King Taco (feat. Ab-Soul)
  5. Muscle Head
  6. Gas Factory (feat. Rome Streetz)
  7. Errybody (feat. Armand Hammer)

The post Minding My Business – Song by Dave East & Harry Fraud appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> Dave East is always relentless on the mic, especially with someone like Harry Fraud behind the boards. As such, their new single “Minding My Business” represents another match made in heaven for the two, with Fraud allowing dreamy guitar licks and peppy trap drums to highlight East’s fast flows and declarations of the grind. It’s the latest track off their upcoming collaborative project Price Of Pain, which will come out later this month. Hopefully “Minding My Business” is a good indication of the quality standard of the album. After all, it goes by in a flash, and shows why Dave remains a standout East Coast MC.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: Price Of Pain

Quotable Lyrics from Minding My Business

You step on my foot, you might wake up a giant,
Remember that David and Goliath s**t,
It’s funny, that’s that Richard Pryor s**t,
Yellow the h*e, Prada suit like a fireman

]]> Rick Ross Faces Backlash Over Kendrick Lamar Impression On “Set In Stone” https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1002394-rick-ross-set-in-stone-first-impressions Fri, 17 Jul 2026 16:08:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1002394 An unfortunate miss in a rather stellar catalog.

The post Rick Ross Faces Backlash Over Kendrick Lamar Impression On “Set In Stone” appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> A few months ago, Rick Ross quickly dismissed Drake’s ICEMAN as a horrendous album and said that his friends who listened to the project lost an hour of their life. Unfortunately for him, it feels like a lot of people feel the same way about his new album, Set In Stone. After building up anticipation for months, Ross came through with his latest project, and the immediate reactions indicate a stark drop in quality compared to his other releases. 

Fans have been going in on the album, specifically the song, “Porsche GT3.” Some have described Ross’ flow as a horrible impersonation of either Kendrick Lamar or Future. Others have compared the flow to the one Drake used on “Jumpman.” Either way, the reception to this new project is not positive.

“Rick Ross flow is terrible on these amazing beats. Don’t even bother wasting yall time,” one X user wrote. Another claimed that it might be one of the worst mainstream rap albums released in the past few years–possibly even worse than the incredibly underwhelming The Carter VI. “This Rick Ross album might be the worst album I’ve heard from a main stream n***a in the last 3 years. Wow. It’s either this one or Wayne’s last project,” another wrote.

The album boasts 19 songs in total with a stacked list of guest appearances. Set In Stone includes appearances from Don Toliver, T.I., French Montana, Max B, BigXThaPlug, Kodak Black, Yung Miami, Gucci Mane, Leon Thomas, and more. Considering the reception, it will be quite interesting to see its first week sales projections. Stay tuned for those numbers this weekend. We’ll keep you posted on anymore updates regarding Rick Ross.

]]> Walk – Song by Molly Santana & Chy Cartier https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1002391-walk-molly-santana-chy-cartier Fri, 17 Jul 2026 15:55:36 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1002391 "Walk" by Molly Santana and Chy Cartier sees the U.S. and U.K. linking up once more for another banger track.

The post Walk – Song by Molly Santana & Chy Cartier appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> Molly Santana and Chy Cartier are bubbling in their respective U.S. and U.K. scenes, and their chemistry on their new single “Walk” shows why. Both femcees have great energy on the cut, flowing with ease despite the raucous and buzzy nature of the drums. Icy synths lead the way in the first part of the song, and the beat switch takes things in a more glitzy and woozy direction. But it’s still tough as nails, and the production stays impactful while the artists slow their flows down. “Walk” is not anything new for either rising star, but it shows how they’re sharpening their skills to great effect.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics from Walk

I went into my problems and turned them to dollars,
These n***as ain’t popping s**t if it ain’t a bottle,
I got a big-a** mission, roadrunning on ’em,
Got some big shoes to fill, my n***as need me out here

The post Flashing Before Your Eyes – Song by G-Eazy & Logic appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]> G-Eazy and Logic went for nostalgic and triumphant boom-bap vibes on their new single “Flashing Before Your Eyes,” taking both MCs back to basics. While they have played with a lot of other genres throughout their careers, this new track sees them both flex their lyrical skills and drop casual but earnest bars over a sunny instrumental. They also trade contrasting energies, with Eazy coming off as more reflective compared to Logic’s more animated passion. Some production effects like pitched-down vocals and record spins help add more color to an otherwise straightforward instrumental. It’s a simple but effective cut, and we’ll see if they have more in store.

Release Date: July 17, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics from Flashing Before Your Eyes

Been planting seeds, potted through, water it then you grow it,
And this life’ll flash before your eyes before you know it,
Only heaven is right above it or below it,
But this ain’t Adam Sandler in Click, you can’t fast forward or slow it
