Future Goes 3-For-3 On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

This was a pretty massive release week for hip-hop albums and singles, and our latest Fire Emoji playlist update is here to round the best of the best up for your convenience. Leading the way is Future‘s MIXTAPE PLUTO, a hotly anticipated project that marks his third of the year. “TOO FAST,” “LIL DEMON,” and “READY TO COOK UP” are easy highlights to shout out for their woozy energy. In addition, we also got a new LP from Lil Tecca, PLAN A. While the record has a solid amount of variety and dynamism to it, we think that “I CAN’T LET GO” is a particularly electrifying note to start your journey with.

Also on Fire Emoji is the continuation of another wild 2024 run: The Alchemist’s new album The Genuine Articulate. It’s a short but very sweet effort, and we’d recommend “Details” with Larry June to hear one of the smoothest sample flips of the month so far. As far as other albums to look forward to, GloRilla recently released a single for her upcoming project Glorious, “Hollon.” It’s her trademark Memphis formula, but with more eerie synths and a more cavernous bass tone to spice things up from her work’s usual (but still enjoyable) muddiness.

But let’s keep it moving on Fire Emoji with some quick single shout-outs. Nardo Wick and BossMan Dlow have some pretty menacing but chilled-out chemistry on “Oh S**t,” whose piano keys contrast the more dark chords quite well. As part of his new comic book/single series, Kid Cudi released “DONT WORRY” with Chip Tha Ripper, a compelling mix of dreamy soundscapes and buzzing bass. On a slightly similar psychedelic tip, we have the latest auto-croon jam from TiaCorine, “Different Color Stones” and its playful attitude.

Meanwhile, Meek Mill pulled up in a “CYBER TRUCK” on his new single, which is exactly his style of sharp snares and confident flows. Ray Vaughn and SiR rep Top Dawg on the former’s new song “Everybody Dies,” which might be the most well-rounded release of the week. Finally, we wanted to pay tribute to Rich Homie Quan‘s memory by pointing you to his posthumous “Song Cry” single, notable for its emotional vulnerability and the dark context it now falls under. But through his catalog, his loved ones and fans can continue to celebrate his life and preserve his legacy. Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji inclusion was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below. Check the playlist out above and, as always, come back to HNHH for more great music releases around the clock.
Rest In Peace Rich Homie Quan.
