This week’s New Music Friday marks the beginning of a new chapter for multiple artists.
After a five-year hiatus, Isaiah Rashad returns to kickstart the rollout for his new album with “Same Sh!t,” a southern-fried trunk-rattler that captures the feeling of being stuck in Groundhog Day. The TDE rapper’s third LP It’s Been Awful drops May 1.
Also ending a lengthy break between albums, DJ Khaled revives his usual formula by tapping trap titans Future and Lil Baby for “One of Them,” the lead single from his long-delayed 14th album Aalam of God. Whether this is really one of them ones is up for debate.
Extending his prolific streak since purchasing Death Row Records, Snoop Dogg reunites with a few familiar faces — Pharrell, Swizz Beatz, Erick Sermon, Rick Rock and Soopafly — on his new album Ten ‘Til Midnight, which accompanies his recently-released movie of the same name.
By far the most explosive release this week is Gucci Mane‘s “Crash Dummy,” a defiant diss song aimed at Pooh Shiesty and Big30, who are facing federal charges for allegedly kidnapping and robbing the 1017 boss earlier this year.
Elsewhere, Yasiin Bey (fka Mos Def) delivers a rare freestyle over Future, Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar’s “Like That” (via his Substack channel, but a snippet can be heard below), BossMan Dlow and Joyner Lucas both drop star-studded projects, and there are surprise link-ups between Doechii and Lady Gaga, and Kehlani and Missy Elliott.
