Here's The Best Weekend Playlist With Fire From Young Thug, Nicki Minaj & More

It's Friday. It's 2k18. What better time is there for you to follow our FIRE EMOJI playlist??? There is no better time, considering just how fire-y it is this week (and again, I say this every freaking week, but this week it is the truest of the true).

We've been building up our Spotify playlist, FIRE EMOJI, as a breeding ground for the dopest/best/hottest hip-hop and r'n'b songs that are out right now. We're always on the hunt for newest of the new (so long as it's fye) to add to it, while older songs are gradually curated out of the playlist and added to our massive/only-playlist-of-its-kind Archive -- if you have a couple of days to spare, give it a listen.

In an effort to keep your earbuds satisfied and keep up with the non-stop pace of the internetz, we update FIRE EMOJI on a daily basis, and we're sharing it with you every Friday, to help accommodate your weekend plans. If you didn't keep up with the site's daily songs list for the entire week, then consider this as a simple recap on the songs you might have missed, and more importantly, the songs you really need in your life this weekend.

Damn. I keep saying it every week, but this week definitely (? debate me in comments) surpassed last week in terms of crazy/fire releases. Young Thug is back. I had to put his ENTIRE EP on the playlist (fight me in comments), sprinkled in between some Nicki Minaj and Carnage. Carnage dropped his album after a slight pushback, and it's a great body of work, you'll find two choice songs off it on the latest FIRE EMOJI update. We've also some a cut from Tinashe's long-awaited Joyride, the Little Dragon-featured "Stuck With Me," and yes, I've yet to add any Smokepurpp, because I need to properly digest it first before deciding what is the most fire-worthy song to add (again, holla at me in the comments if you have one in mind). Beyond that, as always, the FIRE EMOJI playlist is a collection of songs that have been updated daily for the past week. Enjoy the weekend.
