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, you're getting a collab between Travis Scott and Rosalía plus a highlight from the new Lil Yachty tape.
Rosalía & Travis Scott - TKN
Rosalía and Travis Scott have teamed up once again following the Highest In The Room remix. This time it's Scott stepping into Rosalía's world with a boundary-pushing reggaeton song that's over far too soon.
Lil Yachty & Tierra Whack - TD (Feat. A$AP Rocky & Tyler The Creator)
This is one hell of a lineup Yachty has gathered for his Lil Boat 3 tape highlight T.D. Enjoy of them deliver off-kilter bars over an icy, glassy beat. For those who missed hearing Tyler in rap mode, you'll get it here.
Hooks - Gang (Feat. Day1)
Syndey MC hooked has recruited Brisbane MC Day1 for a slick, dancefloor-tinged cut. It merges their distinct Australian styles with Young Thug's signature slur on the hook.
Oliver Tree - Bury Me Alive
Expert troll and artist Oliver Tree is back with another cut from his new album Ugly Is Beautiful. It's a hard, Beastie Boys-esque cut that goes pretty deep with lines like, "Carry me away in a coffin."
Aminé - RIRI
Aminé is back with a new song titled after our Queen Rihanna. The whole song isn't about her but she gets a few namechecks like the opening line, "You love Rihanna but you ain't a savage."
OKENYO - SOLO
Local rapper OKENYO is back with an excellent new project SOLO. The title track is one of the highlights, giving us composed, musings over a floating, hypnotic beat. It's easy to get lost in it.
