Each week, we compose a list of newly released songs that we think you should hear.  Here are some of the best releases you may have missed this week!

Boogie (feat JID)- “Soho”

Compton-native Boogie taps Dreamville’s JID for a highly anticipated collab! “Soho” is a standout track off of Boogie’s debut album Everythings for Sale. The marriage between Boogie’s flow and the beat is incredible and when you think this track can’t get any better JID comes in with a mean verse. Boogie has cemented his name in the rap game. If Boogie ain’t in your top 5 it may be time to revise.

Quotable Lyrics:

I seen my bros get turned to corpse
I’m forced to see em’ using force and still they’re free in court, uh
They pat me down and grab me up
I’m black as fuck, I say it loud
I’m black as fuck
It’s sad to say that dudes as black as me won’t back me up

J.Cole -“MIDDLE CHILD”

Jermaine is starting off the year with his highly anticipated single ‘MIDDLE CHILD”. He teams up with T-Minus to continually demonstrate his importance to the rap game. The song is a reflection of J Cole feeling caught in between two generations ” “I’m dead in the middle of two generations I’m little bro and big bro all at once,” Cole raps on the track. He drops a few golden eggs about Drake, Jay- Z, and 21 Savage. This track comes after the announcement of Revenge of the Dreamer III.

Quotable Lyrics
I got a few mil’ but not all of them rich
What good is the bread if my niggas is broke?
What good is first class if my niggas can’t sit?
That’s my next mission, that’s why I can’t quit
Just like LeBron, get my niggas more chips

TOBi – “City Blues

Emerging Nigerian-Canadian artist, TOBi, talents soar on his latest single “City Blues”. His vocals captivate the soul while his lyrics hold on to your ears. “City Blues” is reminiscent to the core of 70’s socio-political music from artist like Marvin Gaye, expect with a modern twist. Being able to create such music successfully is a hard task that TOBi unquestionably excels on. With such raw talent, I’m excited to see hear what’s next from the singer.

Quotable Lyrics:
It’s hard chilling with niggas who only talk about bitches and never ’bout business
Misogynistic till they sisters get involved
Then it’s vengeance in the name of feminism of course
Bragging bout who they piped down on highschool fool

Thutmose- “Wait Up”

Thutmose is back with his latest track “Wait Up” after being featured on Spider-Man: Enter The Spider-Verse soundtrack. Thutmose has created a lot of buzz in 2018 putting him on track to becoming the forefront of emerging hip hop out of New York. “Wait Up” is a standout trap vibe that shows off Thutmose’s bars and ability to harmonize. With this being his first single of 2019 I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the rest of the year.

Quotable Lyrics:
I Promise to watch ur back
Long as u watch mines
For u I do the crime
I swear I do the time
Ain’t no one gun stop me
From getting what’s mine

Mr Eazi (feat Burna Boy)- “Miss You Bad”

Nigerian star, Mr Eazi taps Burna Boy for another Afrobeat hit. This track is a standout from Mr Eazie’s  Vol.2 – Lagos To London, a mixtape released last year, yet shouldn’t be overlooked.  The balance between R&B and African sound makes this cut hypnotic and smooth. Although the Afrobeat genre has yet to penetrate the mainstream American radio I do believe when it does Mr Eazi will be sitting front and center.

Quotable Lyrics:
I miss you bad
We dey fight no mean say make we breakup o
That is to say, baby make we no give up o
You dey my mind anytime wey I wake up o (ye)
And I dey beg, maybe may we make up o (yeaah

Dreezy- “RIP Aretha”

It’s time to give Dreezy her overdue credit! Chicago-native Dreezy has been killing the game for a while now and she’s back with another bop “RIP Aretha”. This record comes off Dreezy’s forthcoming project, Big Dreez, a highly decorated, 10 track project, released on January 25. “RIP Aretha” serves as a homage to the late Aretha Franklin with a heavy hitting beat, a choppy flow, and countless of bars. As many hot artists are coming out of Chicago, Dreezy manages to hold her own and constantly remind people that her time is now.

Quotable Lyrics:
Aye yo, I’m wilding like Lemony Snicket
I throw 4 with cause, what the world was his ticket
Topped off the Tek and I can’t even fit it
I’m smoking on loud so I probably don’t hear it
Make-Making niggas say my name when he in it
I married his Will but I’m not Jada Pinkett
