One of the most polarizing artists in Hip-Hop has returned with an official follow-up to his debut, There’s Really A Wolf. Below lies Russ‘ sophomore album Zoo, which contains 12 tracks and additional appearances from Scott Storch, Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg and Mahalia.

G Perico – Guess What?

One of the West Coast’s most authentic artists is back with some fire for the Summer’s end. G Perico delivers Guess What?, a 7-track cruise with few additional appearances (only Kalin.FrFr and Garren make the cut).

Stream below, alongside a new visual for “All Nighter.” It’s also a precursor to more from the L.A. emcee, which I hope will come sooner than later.

Estelle – Lovers Rock

Estelle is back with a new album titled Lovers Rock, and — as the title may suggest — the British singer has decided to incorporate Reggae, Dancehall and more for a conceptual work of art that tells a beautiful story of her parent’s cinema-worthy relationship. She doesn’t tell it alone, either: Kranium, Maleek Berry, Luke James, Konshens, Chronixx, Alicai Harley and more provide assistance on the 14-track offering.

Joey Purp – QUARTERTHING

All talent aside, the fact that Joey Purp has RZA and GZA two separate tracks makes this a surefire listen alone. With that said, the Chicago emcee keeps the SAVEMONEY train moving with his new album QUARTERTHING, which — in addition to the Wu-Tang assists — sees appearances from Ravyn Lenae, Cdot Honcho and more.

YoungBoy Never Broke Again – 4Loyalty

This year, YoungBoy Never Broke Again has certainly come into his own as one of the most talented (and transparent) artists of Hip-Hop’s new generation. For the past couple of weeks, the Louisiana artist has delivered two quality EPs: 4Freedom and, alongside Kevin Gates, 4Respect. Now, he keeps the momentum going with 4Loyalty, four new tracks that see appearances from Quando Rondo and Young Thug. Vibe to it below.

Mila J – August 2018

A bit late with this one, but worth it nonetheless: Mila J is another artist who has been quietly creating dope music on a monthly basis. For his latest, she drops August 2018, which comes with 5 tracks and a single assist from MIGH-X. Enjoy below.

Berner – RICO

Berner is back with a new album titled RICO, his second offering this year following The Big Pescado.

Light one up and press play below.

Masego – Lady Lady

Virginia-based artist Masego (finally!) delivers his debut album, Lady Lady. The 14-track release was led by singles “Tadow,” “Old Age” and “Queen Tings”; additional appearances include SiR, FKJ, Sounwave, Ari Lennox and more.

The Young Boss N***as movement continues to build, the next big moment being the below mixtape, led by current YBN frontrunners Nahmir, Almighty Jay and Cordae. Add in additional features from Chris Brown, Wiz Khalifa, Machine Gun Kelly, Cuban Doll and Asian Doll, and you have a solid compilation-style offering that should get plenty of play during cooler months. Check it out below.

LD – The Masked One

67‘s LD (arguably the group’s most popular member) has decided to step out on his own, dropping a new project titled The Masked One. The 8-track offering also sees additional appearances from Tiggs Da Author, Dizzy Rascal (!), Young Adz and more.

Los Angeles emcee G Perico has been working. He’s already released two projects: All Blue and G-Worthy, the latter of which was alongside Jay Worthy and producer Cardo.

It’s been four years since Juicy J dropped the career-revitalizing Stay Trippy, which was led by chart-topping hits “Bandz A Make Her Dance,” “Show Out” and “Bounce It.” Following a slew of mixtapes to hold his fans over, the Three 6 Mafia veteran and Memphis pioneer is back with a new album titled Rubba Band Business, which is more of the same awesomeness his fans expect. With 13 tracks, appearances include A$AP Rocky, Wiz Khalifa, Project Pat, Denzel Curry, Offset, Ty Dolla $ign, Travis Scott and Belly.

JayKae – Where Have You Been?

Last but not least, we head to Birmingham (UK) for JayKae‘s new release, Where Have You Been? The project sees 8 tracks with appearances from Murkage Dave, S-X, TiGA and YASeeN RosaY (unfortunately, no sight of Froggy collaborator Dapz On The Map). Singles include “Every Country,” “Pull Up” and — EP standout and closer — “Toothache.” We’ve included a few notable visuals as well. R.I.P. Depzman.

Kendrick Lamar – DAMN. COLLECTORS EDITION.

Given the hoopla surrounding whether or not the greatest album of 2017 was actually two albums when listened to in reverse order, it only made lucrative sense for Kendrick Lamar and TDE to milk a few more pennies out of the year. Thus, they bring to us DAMN. COLLECTORS EDITION. to save you some trouble. Don’t act like you’re not going to add this to your digital library.
