Busta Rhymes & Coi Leray: The New Drop

Today, the headlines are ablaze, and social media is abuzz, all thanks to the release of a cinematic teaser for an upcoming collaborative track featuring Busta Rhymes and Coi Leray.

This eagerly awaited track is titled “Luxury Life,” and judging by the fiery snippet that Busta Rhymes recently shared, it’s set to ignite the music scene in a big way.

This Is Why It’s Hot.

This news is fascinating on multiple fronts. Firstly, the track brings together two outstanding hip-hop artists, creating a collaboration that’s bound to be exceptional. What adds to the excitement is the sampling of a classic from one of the greatest in the game, Jay-Z, with “Luxury Life” drawing from his 1996 hit “Ain’t No…”

Additionally, the cinematic visual is said to pay homage to one of the most iconic films in pop culture history, “Pulp Fiction.”

And to top it all off, the production is in the hands of none other than Swizz Beatz. Indeed,  the combination of these elements makes this release one-of-a-kind.

Busta Rhymes & Coi Leray: Cross-Generational Magic

Indeed, hip-hop fans recognize this isn’t the first collaboration between Busta Rhymes and Coi Leray. Those who remember their fantastic remix of “Player’s” know these two artists are a force in the music industry.

Despite the generational gap, their exceptional talents transcend age and elevate the art form. Busta Rhymes is known for his dynamic flow and lyrical prowess, while Coi Leray has been making waves with her unique style and fresh approach to hip-hop. When they come together, it’s like a musical explosion, akin to TNT. Beautifully, this explosive synergy does not go unacknowledged by either artist.

Leray has openly expressed her deep appreciation for the opportunity to collaborate with the legendary Busta Rhymes. In return, Busta has shown her the highest respect, praising her immense talent. But the best news is, remarkably, both have hinted at the possibility of more on the horizon.

Drop Date

For those with whom the sampling is insufficient to satiate the taste, “Luxury Life” is set to drop on Sep. 8.

“COI” By Coi Leray: Album Review

Coi Leray has released her sophomore album “COI.” The Boston native is definitely still trying to find her sound while having fun. The songs are not too memorable, but there are some fun tracks such as “Make My Day,” “Get Loud,” “Spend It,” and the obvious hit “Players” – sampling Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five’s “The Message.” “COI” contains features by David Guetta, Saucy Santana, Giggs, Lola Brooke, Skillibeng, and the legendary James Brown.

Samples All Over “COI”

The entire album relies on samples, which has been a popular trend for artists recently. However, I think the samples give the songs a slight edge, and the lyrics are cute, but something still feels missing. Some of the songs could not even be carried by the sample, such as “My Body” and “Phuck It.”

"COI" By Coi Leray: Album Review

Favorite Song And Songs That Need To Go

My favorite song on this album was, surprisingly, “Spend It” with Saucy Santana. The house/dance/vogue sound compliments Coi Leray’s voice, and Saucy gives the song some extra spice. 

Also, the “Blick Blick” rapper absolutely could have cut some songs. “My Body,” “Run it Up,” and “Black Rose” would have been nice for the deluxe “COI” version. Those tracks just didn’t seem needed on the album and were not very memorable.

“Trendsetter” v. “COI”

“COI” is absolutely better than her freshman album “Trendsetter.” Leray was not crowded by collaborations on her sophomore album. She was able to shine and test her limits. She needed to be able to capture people without huge names on every song. On this LP, it sounds like she is having fun and showing a little more of herself. Coi is giving us fun, sexy, and adventurous on this new project.

Album Rating

This is absolutely an album that you can play with your girls on a nice road trip or as you are getting dressed to go out. The “No More Parties” rapper seems to not take herself too seriously and is just here for a good vibe. I give this album a C+.

Coi Leray Claps Back At Latto On Twitter For An Alleged Diss

Coi Leray, Latto, and Mariah the Scientist. Image source: Audiomack.

The hip-hop girlies may be fighting again. Coi Leray was unhappy about Latto comparing her to the size of a blunt in a new song.

The “Big Energy” rapper initially performed the controversial “Put It On Da Floor” single during Coachella. It then got released past Friday, Apr 22, also causing a stir and a harsh response from Coi Leray.

The exact lyric in the “Put It On Da Floor,” new single goes, “smokin’ on that gas, blunt big as Coi Leray.”

Latto’s Similar Lyric On “Don’t Play With It”

Latto has also mentioned someone’s body size in her lyrics before. A month ago, on Lola Brooke’s “Don’t Play With It” remix, also with Yung Miami, Latto rapped:

“Drop that hunnid on a pennant, that shit big as Lola.”

However, although it was Lola’s own song, it did not seem like the artist took Latto’s lyric about her size offensively.

Coi Took It To Twitter

On the other hand, Coi Leray did not take Latto’s lyrics so well. She considered “Put It On Da Floor” a diss, which is also allegedly body-shaming the “Blick Blick” artist.

So Coi took her anger to Twitter and did not hold back.

First came Coi Leray’s offer to fight Big Latto. “Latto bye…here you go talking about my body,” Coi tweeted after suggesting a trial by combat. “Please do not come on here and talk about nobody BODY…Lmaooo ya blunt my size…this sh** is never ending.” 

https://twitter.com/coi_leray/status/1649281833421422593

It did not stop there. The “Twinnem” author then went on to say, “Anybody that talk about my body wants my body!!!!!!!! Like real baddddd.”

Coi Leray also mentioned women who want to be like men “so bad” and have “rap beef.”

https://twitter.com/coi_leray/status/1649282246128312321

Coi Reconsidered Her Initial Reaction

The “Players” rapper then commented on her tweets about Stephens. “Maybe I overreacted [I don’t know]. End of the day. Don’t say my name for clicks and likes. [Especially,] if we don’t speak or communicate.” 

https://twitter.com/coi_leray/status/1649669028225470470

The pair were seen in Latto’s “On God” music video in 2020, so some history possibly happened between them. Latto has yet to respond publicly.

Female Hip-Hop Rappers Such As Coi Leray, BIA, and Missy Elliot Release Lit Tracks

Female Rappers Release Lit Tracks

Female hip-hop rappers are giving everyone straight fire lately.

The collabs are hot, the beats are hotter, and the bars catch fire in every speaker you hear.

Hip-hop girlies Coi Leray, BIA, Baby Tate, Saweetie, Flo Milli, Lola Brooke, Latto, Yung Miami, and Missy Elliot are the gifts that keep on giving.

Each track had a different vibe and interesting collaboration, but it worked elegantly.

Coi Leray’s “On Player (Remix)” And “Nonsense (Remix)”

Starting with Coi Leray, she dropped two remixes in the past 48 hours, with one of hip-hop’s finest Busta Rhymes and the other with popstar Sabrina Carpenter.

A post shared by Big Trend Setter (@coileray)

Two completely different artists, but Coi is such a ‘trendsetter’ and popstar that she can pull off the legendary “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See” backtrack under her song “Players.”

However, “Nonsense (Remix)” with Sabrina Carpenter was an exciting breath of fresh air that was still Coi with a cute pop twist.

I tip my hat to the Boston native.

BIA And Timbaland’s “I’M THAT B**TCH”

Then we get into BIA…

Bianca Miquela Landrau always delivers. She took on the daring beat of Missy Elliot and Timbaland’s “She’s a B**ch” for her version “I’M THAT B**TCH.”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by BIA ✍🏽 (@bia)

She really got a co-sign when Missy Elliot congratulated her on the legend’s Instagram story.

Plus, Timbaland helped her make the track. I think that is the biggest co-sign you could get.

It’s a riveting take on the original song, meeting the present sample with an almost drill beat underneath BIA‘s lyrics.

Baby Tate And Saweetie’s “Hey Mickey!”

Next, Baby Tate and Saweetie‘s “Hey Mickey!” gives us the cute baddie vibe they both exude.

A pop song that turned into a fused pop and hip-hop version.

The Atlanta native always has fun with any of her releases, so it was only right that she paired with Saweetie.

A post shared by Baby Tate (@imbabytate)

The California native born as Diamonté changed her flow up a little with Tate.

It was a nice little shock and made me proud to hear the ‘Icy Girl’ give us something different.

Flo Milli’s “Bed Time (Remix)” With Monaleo And Gloss Up

Furthermore, Flo Milli teamed up with newer mainstream female rappers Monaleo and Gloss Up.

Three of them remixed Flo’s single off her latest album, “Bed Time.”

The lyrics were givin’ ‘I’m going to have my girls’ backs whenever and wherever.’

Monaleo and Gloss Up’s voices and lyrics complement Flo Milli’s cutesy voice pretty well.

Lola Brooke’s “Don’t Play With It” With Latto and Yung Miami

In addition, Lola Brooke’s “Don’t Play With It” is TikTok viral. The New York rapper was the bombshell the industry needed.

So, of course, Latto and Yung Miami had to hop on the train. These two are in the group of some of the hottest female rappers.

It is a great look for Lola Brooke.

Latto and Yung Miami sound like they had fun on this track. Caresha even trolls her fans about Diddy in her verse.

FLO With Missy Elliot’s Fly Girl

Finally, we have Hip-Hop royalty who is the legendary Missy Elliot. FLO is a new girl group from the UK that probably has the potential to be the next Destiny’s Child.

It was smart for them to get Missy on “Fly Girl” because the chorus comes from the Virginia native’s hit “Work It.”

Hearing Missy Elliot rapping again slapped a smile on my face. No one has a flow like her, and her voice just takes me back to the early 2000s.

The females continue to take the industry by storm, and I hope they keep us all on the edge of our seats.

Coi Leray Claims Someone Is Out To Harm Her Career!

Recently a war between some female rappers broke out on Twitter, and many believe the legendary Nicki Minaj took a jab at her “Blick Blick” collaborator, Coi Leray. Since then Coi has been on the radar as she feels someone is trying to hurt her career.

According to All Hip-Hop, there has been drama involving the release of Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl (Queen Mix).” Although we got some fire features from JT, BIA, Katie Got Bandz, Akbar V, and Maliibu Miitch, it seems that other rappers did not make the cut. Fans are assuming Coi Leray may have felt a certain way, as the track did not feature her.

Things get heated between Coi and Nicki.

On September 11th, Nicki Minaj called out rising young artists as “entitled duds.” Just two days before that, Coi Leray tweeted “Industry so weird… only if y’all know the half… yuck… Anyways FLY SH!T OUT NOW.” This happened to be the same day the “Super Freaky Girl (Queen Mix)” was released. She continued to say, “Be careful from fake smiles.”

Yesterday, September 18th, the Trendsetter artist accused an unknown person of paying the media to not post her. She tweeted, “Paying blogs not to post me is sad.”  In another tweet she added, “What’s in the dark always comes to light! Stay prayed up! Stay focused!!” The rapper continues, “Hurt people hurt people.”

Coi then tried to be a bit more positive saying, “Don’t come over here looking for problems. The world got plenty of them already so let’s promote positivity as much as we can.”

After many subs were thrown on Twitter, fans are led to believe theirs definitely some shade going on between Coi Leray and Nicki Minaj over “Queen Mix.” The assumption also began with other celebrities accusing Minaj of using the media to make other artists look bad. Other then Minaj’s ex-boyfriend Meek Mill alleging Minaj worked with blogs to give him a negative image, other rappers such as Remy Ma and Cardi B, also claimed the Queen Barb would try to hurt their reputations.

Nicki Minaj’s Single “Super Freaky Girl” Reaches Over 100k Sales

Nicki Minaj’s new single, “Super Freaky Girl,” has fans going crazy this summer! Since her release date on August 12th, that track has already earned over 100,000 sales.  Minaj took to Twitter with a small sincere message.

According to HipHop DX, the single was inspired by Rick James’s 1981, Super Freak. On its first day, the track hit more than three million streams and became the top new entry on the Spotify Global Chart debuting at Number 13. With the love from her fans, Nicki now has earned the largest solo debut for a female rap song in Spotify history. “Super Freaky Girl” grabbed a spot in the Top 100 in multiple countries including Mexico, the U.K., and Australia, also hitting Number 1 on iTunes on the U.S. and Canada charts.

Yesterday, August 16th, the rapper took to Twitter to let her fans know how grateful she feels. Nicki tweeted alongside a flurry of bow, heart, unicorn, and cherry emojis,

“So grateful omg thank you guys.”

The track happened to be a huge win for the Barbz as well. The single was originally called “Freaky Girl,” which Nicki had issues getting rights to and so she asked her fans to help re-name the single. Nicki gave three choices of “Nick James,” “He Want a Freaky Girl” and “Super Freaky Girl.” Fans ultimately went with the last. The Pinkprint artist rapper took to Instagram to say,

“PreSave #SuperFreakyGirl now. Thank you for your over 200k votes but we could not legally use the name freak or freaky girl. You’re stuck with this. Love You.”

Other than “Super Freaky Girl,” the 39-year-old rap legend has dropped numerous hits since starting off 2022. The list includes her Lil Baby collaborations as well as  Fivio Foreign and Coi Leray. The star will also be releasing a new documentary called Nicki, which will be split into six parts, with each one focusing on a different part of Nicki’s career.

Tidal Released Best Hip-Hop Songs So Far Music Playlist

Tidal Playlist With Best Music So Far Is Out
Gunna's "DS4" album cover. Image source: YouTube.

Tidal’s editorial released a playlist of the Hip-Hop songs they found most excellent so far throughout 2022. With Kendrick Lamar’s “N95” topping the chart, various 2022’s bangers appear throughout the list.

Nicki Minaj took a decent part of the chart with many of her recent features. Such include “Do We Have A Problem?” and “Bussin” with Lil Baby, together with “Blick Blick” with Coi Leray. Together with “N95,” another of Kendrick Lamar’s new album songs appears too (“Die Hard”).

With Hip-Hop veterans like Nicki and Kendrick, Gunna expectedly took a spot on the chart, thanks to his “pushin p” banger. This, however, is also not the only Future’s feature on the list. Lil Durk’s and Future’s “Petty Too,” along with Nardo Wick’s, Future’s, and Lil Baby’s “Me or Sum,” took their places on the chart.

If you’re seeking more alternative Hip-Hop this midsummer, check out “PAPERCUTS” by Vince Staples.

“Halfway through the year already, these are the best Hip-Hop songs up to today,” Tidal’s editorial informed in the description of their playlist. Do you agree?

Gunna’s Arrest & Bond Denial

While charting the Hip-Hop playlists, Gunna is also currently being held under detention for alleged racketeering with Young Thug. The evidence, in particular, includes the lyrics from the artist’s songs. The court also recently denied the artist’s release on bond. The “pushin p” author is currently to stay behind bars until 2023.

“As a Black man in America, it seems as though my art is only acceptable when I’m a source of entertainment for the masses,” Gunna also recently wrote a letter from jail. “My art is not allowed to stand alone as entertainment, I’m not allowed that freedom as a Black man in America. It is a sad reality that slavery is still alive in America today and still affecting my people. In 12 states more than half of the prison population is Black, one of those states is Georgia.”

Benzino Interviewed About 50 Cent’s Trolling

50 Cent is a troll
Source: Getty

Allhiphop recently interviewed Benzino about 50 Cent‘s trolling. He thinks the NYC rapper, actor and businessman has an insecurity issue.

The most recent thing that 50 Cent had done to Benzino was insinuate that he was sleeping with the transgender actress Shauna Brooks. That put him into hot water with the trans community, so 50 Cent later deleted the tweets.

50 also offered Benzino’s daughter, Coi Leray, a role for an upcoming tv show. This had caused him Benzino be upset at both of them, prompting him to call 50 Cent a rat, saying that he crossed a line. He added that his daughter’s disloyalty will lead to her downfall.

50 Cent is a classic old school internet troll, which is why he messes with Benzino. It seems easy to get a rise out of him, so Benzino thinks its because of an insecurity issue.

Old School vs. Modern Trolls

The difference between modern internet trolls and old school trolls is how far they are willing to take it. Modern trolls are basically bullies that use the internet to harass their victims 24/7. They run right across the line as fast as possible and continue running. Old school trolls, meanwhile, do have a limiter, and know where the line is. They step up to the line, but do not cross it. They tip toe around this line to say something bigger about society. The most recent example is when 50 Cent trolled Madonna’s racy photos that she posted to Instagram. He made a comment, saying Madonna is too old to be acting sexy anymore and that she needs to find a new way to gain fans.

Old School trolls also have to pick their words really carefully, or else it might backfire and it sounds like they are agreeing with what they are talking against. That is the case with Shauna Brooks. 50’s trolling accidentally sounded homophobic and Benzino threw that into his face by talking about how homosexually charged 50 Cent’s tv show “Power: Book II” is, using the exact same wording. 50 Cent has since deleted his Instagram posts.
