HNHH’s weekly round-up of our favorite tracks of the week.
After paying your respects, let’s celebrate the great state of hip-hop with another finely curated weekly round-up playlist, courtesy of the HNHH staff. This week’s edition brings together a nice mix of new material from artists both young and seasoned, and sounds both smooth and stirring. There are two tracks off the new joint tape from Lil Uzi Vert and Gucci Mane, one produced by the certified legend Mannie Fresh and the other by C Note, who’s on his way to achieving the same status. Elsewhere, you’ll find a smooth-sailing track from the Jet Life family, fascinating vocal textures from Kweku Collins, and another trigger-happy collab involving the unavoidable 21 Savage. The playlist ends with a deep, deep remix effort from Dej Loaf, who, to our delight, decided to try out a Heavy D production from an ’05 Beanie Sigel album.
