He also delivered on his collaborations, cracking the Billboard Hot 100 with fiery verses on Future’s “CHICKENS” and Lil Baby’s “Back and Forth.” Gee has cemented himself as one of the top rising artists in the game and, as we like to call him, “your favorite rapper’s, favorite rapper.”

Quezz Ruthless: The Memphis rap grinder completely rides out in the 'N.W.A.' music video

There’s no denying how much energy and grinding rap artist Quezz Ruthless brings to The Culture and it’s on full display courtesy of the ‘N.W.A.’ music video. The Memphis rap artist keeps the momentum going from his 2024 Y.N.S. album with the standout record getting its own visual.

Forget the bells and whistles, Quezz demands all the attention from the driver’s seat and shows out from his crib, too. It’s all eyes on Ruthless and the visual glowing.

Never holding back in his music or life, Quezz Ruthless has rightfully earned his "wild child" title. Today, the Memphis riser shares the video for "N.W.A.," a highlight track from his recent mixtape Y.N.S. “N.W.A." finds Quezz channeling the energy of the influential rap group the track is named after, issuing a warning to the opps and flexing his flashy new purchases: "I got the racks in my denim / They can't even feed me to go up a size or two / I know these n****s don't like me / I say what I want, I'm a n***a with attitude." In the video, directed by TCP, Quezz rides around town with his crew, feeling unstoppable when he's dripped out in designer and counting his stacks of cash.

"N.W.A." is a highlight track from Quezz Ruthless’ recent mixtape, Y.N.S and follows up the video for "Jackpot" and “N**** Show Us.” The Grim Reaper Gang rapper's bars reflect his "Ruthless" artist name, showing no remorse for anyone who might cause an obstacle to his inevitable rise. Short for Yung N**** Sh*t, the tape was created in honor of Quezz Ruthless's brother and biggest inspiration: the late Big Scarr. Y.N.S. hosts "Big Scarr Flow Part 2," in which Quezz channels the style of his older brother to get off some of his toughest bars to date: "How you a ape but you scared of Gorillas/I walk around with your stash in my denims/B*tch, I'm the big dog, I'm king of the kennel," he spits. The tape's final track, "Ain't Stoppin'," produced by GRAMMY-nominated production duo The Trillionaires, features a posthumous verse from Scarr himself, as Quezz resolves to never stop paying tribute to his brother's memory. 

Quezz Ruthless is one of the most exciting young rappers in the bustling Memphis rap scene. He first gained notoriety with his guest spot on Big Scarr's "MJ," which has over 85 million global streams. Quezz built a cult following in Memphis with his 2023 mixtape, Wild Child, which has over 10 million streams. The rapper's catalog generates over 200k on-demand streams per week across platforms.

With Y.N.S. out now and much further to rise, Quezz Ruthless looks to honor his brother's memory by going as hard as he can. Stay tuned for much more.

Genia: You can't help but dance and turn up with the glow up 'Damage' music video

Forget just calling it girl power - it’s strictly Genia and her gang-gang turning up from start to finish with a hard-hitting and very much necessary visual flex to her recently released ‘Damage’ anthem. The single goes hard but getting the crew together for the cinematic glowing? I’m here for it.

Pure flexing and inevitable fire from start to finish. Completely tap in.

Genia, the 23 year-old singer/songwriter shares new video to electrifying previously released track entitled “Damage” available on all platforms today via Def Jam Recordings.

She initially teased the track with viral snippets on social media, which generated over a million views on TikTok and counting. Fans immediately embraced Genia’s lyrics and vibe from the jump. The song revolves around a thick throwback drumbeat, channeling turn-of-the-century Pop energy. Her sassy verses give way to a chantable chorus. Taking charge, she proclaims, “Bad girls wanna have fun.”

It follows the recent fan and critical favorite “Give.” Receiving praise, MELODIC Magazineraved, “Exuding confidence and raw power, “Give” is a definitive track from Genia.”Additionally, Consequence of Sound attested, “Lyrics that nod to a windows-down drive on a sunny day complement an airy, glittering chorus for a track just over two minutes that leaves us wanting more,” going on to profess, “new music of this caliber arrives like a treat from the rising vocalist.”
 
“Give” landed in the wake of her mixtape 4AM IN THE VILLE, which earned acclaim from the likes of Rated R&B and more. REMIXD MAGAZINE sat down with her for an exclusive interview and professed, “Genia is making her mark with a refreshing blend of genre-less, vulnerable, and melodic music.”  East Side Vibes attested, “Genia really shines and shows her potential and diversity in her artistry. 4 AM In The Ville is an entertaining R&B project with so much to love, and it makes me excited to see what Genia has cooking up next.”
  
Get ready for a whole lot more from Genia soon.

ABOUT GENIA:
Genia is a force to be reckoned with. Fiery yet thoughtful with her pen, the 23-year-old makes music that, like her, can’t be put into a box. On her most recent single, “Give” on Def Jam, she delivers a fun, pop-leaning anthem for the girls. A departure from her last two EPs, 4am In The Ville & 4pm In The Ville, where she delivered melodic manifestos over speaker-rattling beats brimming with soulful samples and blaring horns. “I feel like I make music for everybody,” she says. “But mainly for women to feel badass. That was kind of my thing: to make bad bitch music, but also vulnerable music, almost like somebody’s reading my diary.” This raw approach comes from a lifetime of using music as therapy. Growing up in a turbulent household in Victorville, CA, Genia dreamt of escape. Through her grandmother, she found it first in Prince’s Purple Rain, and listening to consummate artists like Beyoncé and Rihanna inspired her to forge her own alter ego: a woman who’s as tough as she is creative, who handles her business. She was working at Walmart and studying to be a nurse when COVID hit. Amid the stress, she quit and turned to music. After striking TikTok gold in November 2020 with her version of Deborah Cox’s “Nobody’s Supposed to Be Here,” Genia went hard — refining her vocals, writing, and dancing. Now she’s deep in new music, with plenty more savage songwriting and nostalgic production on deck. For this young Def Jam star, this is just the beginning for Genia.

We got inspiration from our favorite singers, anime, musicians, and producers to provide a gallery of sounds for the special moments in life.

NLE Choppa: The BenMarc-directed 'GO' music video is vixen-filled soapy car wash fun

Who wants to wash their whips? Well, if you’re rap superstar NLE Choppa, you won’t mind having fun at the car wash and it’s BenMarc’s direction in the ‘GO’ music video that’ll have you losing more than just your mind.

Vixen. Endless soap. Comedy. Signature Choppa bars. It’s visual flexing and I can’t get enough. Get caught up in the wild fun.

On the heels of his critically acclaimed short film, NLE Choppa Presents: The Wash, NLE Choppa gifts fans with the surprise release of the tongue-in-cheek video for his song "GO." Co-directed by Choppa, the playful visual brings an extra splash of humor and edge, setting the scene at a car wash with the same rambunctious vibe and unforgettable moments that made the film a hit. Watch "GO" HERE and stream his latest project SLUT SZN HERE, out now via NLE Entertainment/Warner Records.

In NLE Choppa Presents: The Wash, our hero—played by NLE Choppa—attempts to prevent his independent car wash from financially going underwater. He gets savvy and recruits the baddest female staff he can find, boasting a menu of services drenched in NSFW double entendre such as “Sloppy Toppy,” “Rim Job,” and “Badussy Special.” Hilarious dialogue and unforgettable moments propel the plot towards an unexpected resolution with a sweet message to never give up, keep the faith, and let life take its course. An a-list cohort of friends and collaborators bring this story to life, including Lil Wayne, Lou Ratchet, Lil One, Lil Pistol, JP, Ray Vaughn, Relly B, Sukihana, TraRags, and Yaisel LM.

21-year-old NLE Choppa has already made significant waves in the rap industry, amassing over 8.5 billion streams and earning 24 RIAA-certified plaques, including multiple platinum and gold singles. At just 16, he established a partnership between his own NLE Entertainment and Warner Records, resulting in a series of RIAA-certified hits.

Beyond music, NLE Choppa has consistently used his platform to drive positive change. His NLE Reading Challenge encouraged at-risk Memphis elementary students to read 40 million words, earning him Tennessee's Charter School Centers Changemaker Charter Award. He has performed at GRAMMY in the Schools, led the “Skate for Tyre” peaceful protest through the streets of Memphis in early 2023, and donated a state-of-the-art basketball court to the Raleigh Community Center with the help of basketball legend Nancy Lieberman. Additionally, Choppa’s vegan lifestyle is influencing his community through initiatives like his This Can’t Be Vegan Food Truck, which offers healthy on-the-go options. Following his own spiritual awakening, NLE Choppa has emphasized mental, physical, and spiritual wellness, embracing veganism, meditation, and prayer. He continues to seek and share enlightenment, using his art as a foundation to inspire lasting change.

Real Boston Richey: The Florida rap heavyweight flips Ne-Yo's classic for a fire 'Come Outside' music video

Nearly two decades since Ne-Yo dropped his classic ‘So Sick’ gem, turns out the song is impacting more than lyrics for Florida rap heavyweight Real Boston Richey and it’s on full display with the ‘Come Outside’ music video. It’s an outdoor flex in front of the bodega spot with gang-gang for Richey.

A fire tune with a visually hot music video to complement the statement. Kick back and embrace the cinematic presentation.

Real Boston Richey delivers his newest music video today, “Come Outside (So Sick)

“Come Outside (So Sick)” is found on Richey Rich, Real Boston Richey’s sophomore full-length studio album, available at midnight. Watch the video here, and pre-order/pre-save the album here.

Listen to Richey Rich the album, available now.

2024 has been an important one in Richey’s journey. Following his Billboard 200 debut in late 2023 with the release of Welcome 2 Bubbaland, Richey’s debut album, he made his Billboard 100 debut this year thanks to “Help Me,” a soul-baring track off Richey Rich that’s become a viral social media sensation.

Richey Rich, his second studio album in as many years, seeks to solidify Richey’s stardom as he continues to grow his mainstream profile in the wake of dominant mixtape success (Public Housing, Public Housing 2).

Watch “Come Outside (So Sick)” today.

DaeMoney: The championship flex is on display with the 'Game Winning Speech' music video

Detroit’s doing big things in 2024 and I’m here for it all. How about seeing rap artist DaeMoney showing out with the hard-hitting ‘Game Winning Speech’ music video?

The signature sound is one thing but how about getting the nostalgic DVD quality vibes on this visual presentation? Completely tap in.

Staking his claim as next-up in Detroit, DaeMoney shoots to win. Today, he keeps the momentum high from recent mixtape The Godson with the "GAME WINNING SPEECH" video. A highlight track from the project, "GAME WINNING SPEECH" finds Dae looking back on his rise to success, likening himself to the come-up stories of sports greats: "On the bench with no playin' time / Sold out crowds, long lines when I come to town / I elevated on these hatin' n****s, told me dumb it down." In the video, Dae stages a post-game speech, rapping amidst photos of NBA legends and even holding the NBA Finals trophy.

"GAME WINNING SPEECH" appears on DaeMoney's recent mixtape The Godson. Earning praise from VIBE, BET, and more, the mixtape finds Dae returning to his mafioso roots, bringing street lessons and pop culture punchlines in equal measure. Across the 15-track project, DaeMoney layers his signature mix of hard-hitting Michigan drums and opulent synths and infuses each track with an experimental array of sonics ranging from laid-back 90’s Californian rap throwbacks, dark and distorted keys, and sentimental acoustics. Project highlights include the wordplay-heavy "SPONGEBOB & PATRICK," the Peezy-featuring Midwest banger "ALL MY SONS," the fast-paced "SUPERSTAR," and the BabyTron-featuring "SNOTBALL."The Godson is available everywhere via EMPIRE.

The Godson follows-up Rockstar Lifestyle 2, a mixtape released earlier this year which earned positive notices from The FADER. In contrast to the darker hued Slae Season tapes, Rockstar Lifestyle 2 is more celebratory and aspirational, with brighter beats and a wider complement of guests. LUCKI, Veeze, and Babyface Ray return for guest spots (the latter on local hit "Earned It"), while Dae also welcomes Karrahbooo and BabyTron for fun-loving team-ups. 

With The Godson out now, DaeMoney stakes his claim, anointing himself as a kingpin of Detroit's new generation. Stay tuned for much more.

IDK: The 'MiLES TRUMPET' music video is pure honesty and New York City storytelling

There might be West Coast vibes coming from IDK on a regular basis but it’s clear for the storytelling of his ‘MiLES TRUMPET’ anthem, it’s only right to take his talent to the Big Apple.

The visual lives up to the song’s pure fire audio and demands ample appreciation. From dusk to dawn, it’s all in the cinematic glowing happening here.

Girlfriend & Maiya The Don: It's all about moving on in the 'Feelin' music video

I can’t deny it - crooner Girlfriend is super attractive and the type I would low-key want to have break up to make up with - but my personal feelings aside, her music continues to slap especially when in the form of a ‘Feelin’ music video.

With thoughts about moving on coming to fruition, it’s only right Girlfriend lets loose on her newest cinematic contribution while also letting fellow musician Maiya The Don slide through too. Tap in.

JasonMartin & Laila!: It's a massive 'PROBLEM' going down in the black and white music video

I’m here for all things rap artist JasonMartin in 2024. The music is always fire but the visuals are getting extra hard especially when you see him turning up in the ‘PROBLEM’ cinematic presentation.

It’s pure fire and I’m here from the start to finish. Completely zone out to the flex.

Cordae & Joey Bada$$: The signature bodega flexing is on display in the 'Syrup Sandwiches' music video

It’s one thing to love all things lyrical about rap artists Cordae and Joey Bada$$ but getting a full-fledged music video, too? Super tough. It’s all types of fire vibes and late night glowing happening in the ‘Syrup Sandwiches’ music video.

It’s priceless and endless fun happening for the duo here. Completely tap in.

Multi-platinum, 3x Grammy Award-nominated, and Emmy Award-winning rapper Cordae debuted his new single “Syrup Sandwiches” featuring Joey Bada$$. Listen HERE. Alongside the new single, Cordae also premiered the video for the track. Watch HERE. Directed by Wax Bondo, the video brings life to the song’s message of success and resilience. Produced by Smoko Ono and Thelonius Martin, “Syrup Sandwiches” is a track that highlights Cordae’s appreciation for the hard work that it’s taken to get to where he is today. 

The new track will appear on Cordae’s highly anticipated third studio album, The Crossroads, which will be released next week on November 15. Pre-order HERE.
