Hip-hop music comes faster than any other genre. It's not uncommon for a rapper to drop upwards of three projects a year and while that's great, it becomes increasingly hard to stay on top of it. 'The Rap Wrap' is our attempt to keep you in the know on the weekly. This week, we're giving you new Ed Sheeran and Travis Scott plus a choice cut from the new Blood Orange record.
Ed Sheeran - Antisocial (Feat. Travis Scott)
Ed Sheeran's entire No. 6 Collaborations project is out today and while there are plenty of rap features none of them strike you quite like this one. Sheeran gives one of his grittiest vocal performances to date and Scott comes through with a characteristically woozy verse.
Sampa The Great - OMG
Sampa The Great is on another level right now building up to the release of her debut album The Return. She explores her Zambian heritage while also forging a future-eyeing sound with dancefloor ambition.
Wave Racer - Summer Rain (Feat. Kwame)
Wave Racer and Kwame both step outside their box on Summer Rain. Wavey hits harder and Kwame leans into a PC Music-tinged world with ease.
Kash Doll - Ready Set (Feat. Big Sean)
Kash Doll may have her biggest hit on her hands with the Big Sean-featuring Ready Set. Sean delivers a mighty hook while Kash Doll sounds expensive from start-to-finish.
ILOVEMAKONNEN - Loser
ILOVEMAKONNEN is on an emo-rock tip with his new track Loser. It's a song that's essentially about spiralling - a raucous, nihilistic party track.
Blood Orange - Gold Teeth (Feat. Project Pat, Gangsta Boo & Tinashe)
Blood Orange taps Project Pat once again for his new mixtape Angel's Pulse. It's a vintage hip-hop track with some sultry vocals courtesy of Tinashe.
