Tommy Richman, ACTIN UP | Song Review 🎵

Following his debut album COYOTE (considered a flop), Tommy Richman reinvests in hip-hop on the entertaining, minimalist banger, “ACTIN UP.”

Grammy-winning rapper Doechii takes a victory lap on the brief, but ambitious and high-energy banger, “Nosebleeds.”

Grammy-nominated rapper Latto taps fellow rapper Playboi Carti for a respectable remix of her 2024 single, “Blick Sum.”

Grammy-nominated rapper Travis Scott delivers another surefire vibe with his single “4X4,” which samples the Tennessee State Marching Band.

St. Louis rapper Sexyy Red and Grammy-winning pop superstar Bruno Mars collaborate on a brief, filthy, and potent single “Fat Juicy & Wet.”

Memphis rapper NLE Choppa and alternative rock/pop collective Imagine Dragons join forces for the short but entertaining single, “Dare U.”

British rapper Central Cee taps Grammy-winning, British-born, Atlanta-based rapper 21 Savage for the enjoyable banger, “GBP.”

Once more, melodic rapper Rod Wave wears his heart on his sleeve in his first single of 2025, “Westside Connection.” It’s solid, not groundbreaking.

Mac Miller sounds phenomenal on his posthumous single, “5 Dollar Pony Rides,” from his second posthumous album, Balloonerism.

Confident and talented British rapper Lil Simz ‘cooks’ on her brief but potent drill-infused rap banger, “Hello, Hi.”

Backed by a smooth, hypnotic instrumental, Grammy-nominated rapper Gunna delivers a confident, enjoyable banger with “GOT DAMN.”

Gen-Z rapper ian (Ian Smith) brings nothing new, game-changing, or substantial to the table in his brief single, “No Way.”
