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 new music from the Roddy Ricch and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie plus The Weeknd with his comeback song Heartless.
Roddy Ricch - Tip Toe (Feat. A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie)
Roddy Ricch is having a great year with standalone singles and he's continued his run with this slinky cut Tip Toe. He's recruited chart king A Boogie for the track which gives it an extra kick.
The Weeknd - Heartless
You wouldn't class The Weeknd as a rapper but occasionally he goes hard and he certainly doesn't hold back on Heartless. Drugs, sex and independence are at the heart of this track which has The Weeknd spitting like the Trilogy days.
City Girls - You Tried It
City Girls first track since JT's release from prison has them immediately back on form. They're not dwelling on the past, instead they're getting right back to business with this colourful, charismatic track.
Manu Crooks & ONEFOUR - Hectic (Feat. J. Emz)
Manu Crooks and ONEFOUR are at the top of the Aussie rap scene right now and they've finally collided for Hectic. While Crooks has often looked to US rap for inspiration this one seems to take influence from some of Grime's iciest cuts.
Fuse ODG - Lazy Day (Feat. Danny Ocean)
Ghanian-English artist Fuse ODG has had a big year dropping an album and an EP and now he's got another hit on his hands. Lazy Day is a hit-in-waiting, giving us laid-back vibes with a killer hook that's likely to win over radio.
Koffee - W (Feat. Gunna)
Jamaican artist Koffee has had a breakthrough year following her debut EP and she's celebrating it on W. It's an effortless flex that encourages people to celebrate the wins more than the losses. US breakout rapper Gunna brings some extra melody to the song.
