Hndrxx

Essential Albums To Listen To Right Now

... Future is so good.  Future is also dropping another album (a week apart) called Hndrxx. Am I excited? Does the Pope like ice cream. Syd – Fin. The Internets  lead singer, Syd, drops her first debut album minus any of her Odd Future cohorts. Fin, is more of a pop album with trap influences. Though her vocal range isn’t vast, Syd manages to rope us in with her sleek and slightly old school, R&B-ish style. Tristate x Oh No – 3 Dimensional Prescriptions. Durag Dynasty  alum, Tristate teams up with serial beat-maker  Oh No  for an extreme head nodder of an album. 3 Dimensional Prescriptions is a California boom bap banger from start to end. Oh No has definitely set himself apart from super-producer brother, Madlib, over the years and has created a hardcore, sample-filled sound that only the best can flow over. Seasoned emcee Tristate has zero issues bobbing and weaving through Oh No’s intricate beats. Roc Marciano – Rosebudd’s Revenge. Roc Marciano has been heavy in the underground since his debut Marcberg in 2010. Three solid albums later and we’re at his new joint Rosebudds ...

... reasons, Future is playing by his own rules, with his second album picking up where the first left off, intentionally declaring, "If U purchased #FUTURE u will understand #HNDRXX." With each album representing the various facets that make up the prolific Atlanta heavyweight, his intense work ethic has made such a feat of releasing back-to-back projects appear effortless, conscious and polished, as opposed to what could have been, by design, a haphazard effort scrapping together 34 assorted tracks from his never-ending archive. Instead, each 17-track project stands exceptionally strong on its own, with HNDRXX chock-full of the artist's tried-and-true Autotune treatment FUTURE was curiously absent of. With Future himself stating that HNDRXX was "The album [he] always wanted to make," there's no ceilings in sight with this one, creating a diverse offering sculpted by unexpected risk-taking and two guest features from Rihanna and the Weeknd, further signifying Future is unapologetically continuing to evolve in his artistry and calling his own shots along the way. There's no escaping it or fighting it: Future season is 100% in full swing. No better time than now ...

20 Of The Best Lyrics From Future's 'hndrxx' Album

... two albums in as many weeks this month and is giving his peers some serious competition. Future stands as the current king of trap music and one of the hottest acts in the game as of late. One of the more consistent and prolific artists over the past few years, the underground legend-turned-mainstream superstar has quietly built one of the more loyal fan bases in music, allowing him to release new projects at will, whether it be mixtapes catering to his core audience or high-profile studio albums. He took his foot off the pedal a bit in 2016, and spent most of the year riding off the wave of his monstrous 2015, along with hits from his Purple Reign mixtape and fourth solo studio album, EVOL. Just two months in to 2017, Future has returned in a big way. He affirmed his star power with a self-titled album and the announcement of his upcoming Nobody ...

Calvin Harris, Pale Waves, Lana Del Rey & More

... step this way for  DIY’s Listening Hub , and our  Essential Playlist. Calvin Harris - Slide (ft. Frank Ocean, Migos). Remember the baby-faced first incarnation of Calvin Harris? The star-hoody-wearing young’un who - despite being birthed almost halfway through the decade – managed to curry vast amounts of early favour off the back of his electro-minded ditty about hugging people who were born in the eighties, the eighties? Us neither. These days our Cal has transformed. Currently, he’s best known for making mums utter sentences like ‘what a nice lad he is!’ when they see him in the Armani pants adverts, and mixing with music’s superstars. His new single ‘Slide’ sees him teaming up, as you do, with two thirds of Migos, and the ever elusive Frank Ocean. Ocean’s saucily warbled chorus - “Do you slide on all your nights like this?” - is a winner from the off. Those helium-trilling melodies, those toastily reverberating piano chords? Just lovely. Stomping, funk-inflected bass-lines, those crispy little side helpings of robotic clappery? Superb. As it stands, between Cal and ...

Future Fires Back At Rocko's Statement Regarding Ongoing Lawsuit

... which would presumably be  FUTURE  and the upcoming  HNDRXX. Those reports proved false and the two Atlanta rappers are still battling it out in court. Rocko took to Instagram Wednesday (February 22) to clear the air about the lawsuit, which he first filed in June seeking $10 million , claiming Future breached the contract he signed in 2011 with A 1 Recordings. Rocko says that he and Future could have talked things out, but the Dirty Sprite 2 rapper said to “let the lawyers handle it.” He says he only wants his fair share and still has nothing but respect for Future, even encouraging his fans to pre-order HNDRXX. A post shared by DON ROCKO C. E. O. 🅰1️⃣ (@rocko 2 real) on. Feb 22, 2017 at 7:08 am PST. Future countersued Rocko a few months after the original lawsuit was filed, saying that the exec was the one who owes him money for ...

Future Poised For Unprecedented No. 1 Debuts In Back-to-back Weeks On Billboard 200 Albums Chart

... 1 on the March 11-dated list with perhaps 150,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending Feb. 23. If HNDRXX performs just as well, it too could open at No. 1 (on the March 18 chart), granting Future a first: back-to-back No. 1 debuts in successive weeks. In the Billboard 200's nearly 61-year history, no act has debuted at No. 1 in consecutive frames, although acts have replaced themselves at No. 1 - just not with back-to-back debuts in the penthouse. The Beatles , Herb Alpert and The Monkees , for example, have all managed to supplant themselves at No. 1. As for Future, it’s unusual that an artist would release separate albums so close together, as one title could cannibalize the sales and streams of the other and could potentially cause consumer confusion. In the past, we’ve seen acts release albums a few months apart, such as Justin Timberlake ’s The 20/20 Experience Parts 1 and 2, which bowed a little more than six months apart in 2013, or on the same day, like Guns N’ Roses’ Use Your Illusion I and II, back in 1991. Other acts that notched a pair of No. 1 debuts ...
