For someone who doesn’t follow rap/hip-hop on a daily or even weekly basis it is hard to keep up with all of the new music that is released by lesser-known artists. Because of this i want to expose you to some songs that you may have missed and should definitely consider listening to if you haven’t heard yet. Below is a playlist on Spotify that I have personally curated for your listening pleasure. Feel free to subscribe to the playlist if you would like and explore some of my other playlists if you want to discover even more hidden gems that you may have missed.

Several notable albums were released last month, with the most popular being the release of “Culture” from Migos. “Culture” is the second studio album released by the rapper trio and has debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 Top Album sales for the week of February 18th, which knocked off The Weeknd’s “Starboy” after spending nearly two months at the top ranking. Culture has been successful due in large part to the lead single released ahead of the album, “Bad and Boujee” featuring Lil Uzi Vert, which has captivated the rap/hip-hop world and lyrics(“Rain drop, drop top”) that have been transformed into a popular meme. Other songs such as “Slippery”, “Kelly Price”, and “Deadz” all have great flow with notable features; Gucci Mane, Travi$ Scott, and 2 Chainz respectively.

Another album of good quality to be released in the month of January is “GTTM: Going Through the Motions” by PnB Rock. This album was the first studio album released by the Philadelphia native and peaked at #28 on the Billboard 200; peaking at #7 for Rap albums. This album is packed with several notable features: Wiz Khalifa, Ty Dolla $ign, YFN Lucci, and rising rapper A Boogie Wit da Hoodie.

Other notable music in the playlist includes Lil Uzi Vert, Riff Raff ft. Wiz Khalifa, Ty Dolla $ign, Wale ft. Lil Wayne with “Running Back”, J. Cole, and Post Malone.

Enjoy!
