Eminem – Curtain Call 2

This album is such a trip. It is a ride down the highway, sunroof down, wind in your face as you visit memories tied to old songs. 

This 35-song contribution from Slim Shady has features from the best at their best and some classics like “The Monster” featuring Rihanna, “No Love,” featuring Li Wayne, and more. 

However, it is not all old school. The album contains his new song featuring Snoop Dogg, “From The D To The LBC.”

NBA Youngboy – The Last Slimeto

NBA YoungBoy is living up to the Khaled anthem: “All I Do Is Win.” After beating a gun charge last month, the rapper released his long-awaited album, The Last Slimeto. 

The 30-song album with only three guest-featured songs: “My GoTo” featuring Kehlani, “Home Ain’t Home” featuring Rod Wave, and “Don’t Rate Me” featuring Quavo.

Bobby Shmurda – BodBoy

Bobby Shmurda went up to the top, went to prison for six years, and is now trying to claw his way back. 

This marks his first album in eight years since Shmurda She Wrote, and a follow-up to the catchy “Hoochie Daddy” single.

Benny The Butcher, Rick Hyde, Heem feat. DJ Primer

Benny The Butcher and The Black Soprano Family (BSF) have got something cooking. 

The group recently announced an upcoming album, Long Live DJ Shay, billed for a September 9 release. 

Right along with that, they dropped a single along with its visuals. “Times Is Rough” is the shiznit.

DJ Khaled feat. Drake x Lil Baby – Staying Alive

No discussion of hip-hop in the last decade is complete without a reference to that iconic phrase “DeeJay Khaaled!”. 

The hypeman rapper may have a few hits and misses, but he sure does have more hits. “Staying Alive ” is one of these hits.

The song features Drake and Lil Baby, two rappers at the height of their game. 

Let us know what you think of this new banger.
