HDBeenDope has had several recent releases, including the “Figure Four” music video and the new EP. Both share positive messages and deep meanings. According to the artist, “The idea behind the [EP] title came from a setback. It was intended to be released as one project with a different theme. Departing from a plan can be difficult, especially when focused on the roadblocks.

Zelly Ocho’s “Dirty Drugs” recent album is a 14-track record full of (who would’ve thought) drugs, voice experiments, and heavy bass instrumentals. The autotune is not just present — it’s over the top, which makes it hard to understand the lyrics sometimes, but it also adds to the album’s overall atmosphere. Multiple “Dirty Drugs” features include “Brand New” with Trippie Redd and “Cup of Ice” with Joeyy and Ricky Chix.

Big Homiie G’s “Self Made Self Paid 2” record is an eight-track addition to the artist’s previously released “Self Made Self Paid” album. A rather eclectic new album’s collection consists of songs ranging from deep and meaningful “Be There” to “Hot,” where Big Homiie G uses lines like “don’t ask me shit about shit” over a suspenseful instrumental (which is also deep and meaningful but in a different way). The lyrics are something to point out.
