Whenever Young Thug works with Mike Will Made It, the results usually lead to a banger with that odd twist to it. That is exactly what “I Need Chickens” is. Mike Will’s production is constant with a West Coast like undertone, but Thugga’s raps adds a psychedelic tone to the song. Check out “I Need Chickens” below.
Singer-songwriter Tiffany Evans releases her new single “On Sight” featuring platinum-selling rapper Fetty Wap. The summer anthem is the first official single from Evans’ forthcoming EP, All Me.
Speaking on her new single, Evans says, “”On Sight” is a fun and flirty track. When I started writing the song, I kept getting nostalgia. It took me to a place where I just wanted to dance and be cool. No stress.”
“I instantly thought of Fetty Wap when I was recording the “On Sight,”” says Evans on enlisting Fetty Wap for the track. “The tone of his voice is crazy to me, so I knew it would make perfect sense to put him on the record. He just naturally has that vibe that I was looking for.” All Me, will serve as the follow-up to Evans’ fan-favorite EP, 143 (I Love You), which was released in 2013.
Take a listen to “On Sight” below!

Last week, Chief Keef announced that he would perform via hologram in his hometown city, Chicago. The drill music artist was set to perform with the hopes of preventing violence in the streets of Chi-Town, especially since a one-year old died during the same shooting that killed Keef’s close friend, Capo. Unfortunately, the concert was postponed due to a conflict with local paster, Michael Pfleger. Pfleger shown his disdain for the Chief Keef concert a couple of days ago on Facebook, according to the Chicago Tribune:
“Instead of having a concert … why doesn’t he man up and acknowledge it’s time to stop this violence and apologize for his part in it!!!! We don’t need a concert … we need PEACE.”
According to David Alki, the event’s organizer, Father Pfleger was accused getting the Redmoon Theatre in downtown Chicago to back out of their contract. Alki wrote to The Tribune:
“The meddling, attention seeking Father Pfleger, who bullied the owner of the downtown theater to back out of his contract, will not succeed. He is exploiting this tragedy and taking money away from the victims and solid charities who are doing good work in Chicago.”
Although Pfleger is accused of talking the Redmoon Theatre out of the July 17th date, there has not been any connection between both parties.
Well definitely keep you updated on this growing story.

For fans of abstract raps that aren’t averse to tread on the lyrical side, allow E-Prosounds to reintroduce you to his signature brand of beats and rhymes. After jumping on the scene last year with his debut free release, The Divine Mind, the Rockland County emcee has been busy developing his craft. For his latest effort, “Hudson,” as featured on his instrumental project, Evan Gang Evolution, E-Pro is joined by Uptown’s own ARP, of Blues Brovas 9000 fame, for a sparse, low key head nodder that reflects their favorite spot to watch life go by. Whereas the Washington Heights rapper’s smooth and braggadocios rhymes differ from E-Pro’s monotone style, it makes for an etherial, bass heavy banger that’s ideal for “ridin’ round smokin’ on the Hudson.” Directed by FRESHPres, “Hudson” showcases both emcees strutting through sidewalks, and rooftops, to riding through Manhattan’s Henry Hudson Parkway…”in that foreign custom, like it ain’t nothin.” Evan Gang Evolution is now available for free download, courtesy of AudioMack.

We’ve always tried to support Florida bred rapper Will Brennan and his music. In fact Will’s sincerity and realness in his music made him a Breeding Ground Artist here at AHH and some time ago he signed with Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak records. Will Brennan was never shy about combining sounds as his style weaves rap, EDM, and alternative indie sounds together seamlessly.
With his project Black Americana coming up soon Brennan drops the first single “Smoke & Mirrors.” The new single is all about fronts in relationships over a ill Madeaux beat. The producer is signed to A-Trak’s Fool’s Gold Records. Black Americana will come executively produced by DJ Burn One and it will also include production contributions from the Atlanta-bred beat smith.
Fresh on the scene with their official single “No Days Off” featuring the Migos, NLA consists of Nina Moody from Jackson, Florida, Jessica Benson from Baltimore, Maryland and Janeen Casey from Little Rock, Arkansas. These three uber talented ladies were literally handpicked based on their hard work coming up on the Atlanta music scene. With collective musical influences spanning from Usher to Chris Brown to Destiny’s Child to TLC, Total, and Aaliyah. This group is as diverse as it is magical! NLA is giving you the feel of classic R&B with a club edge, and are more ready than ever (after four years of development) to make their mark on the music scene. NLA is signed to Good Look Entertainment and was curated by industry veterans, Keith Thomas and Terrence Carter. NLA has also recently joined forces with Migos for their new single “No Days Off.”
Take a listen to their new single below.
AllHipHop Caught up with NLA to talk the state of R&B, the need for R&B groups, their sound and more! Check out the interview below.
With the state of R&B and with the inability of R&B groups to last on today’s scene, how do you plan to make your mark, have longevity, and keep the genre alive?
We plan to put out good music that anyone can relate to. We aren’t really worried because the music matters most. Even though we haven’t seen a R&B group in a while, once you put something out that’s real, people can’t help but to gravitate to it.
Who are your biggest influences?
TLC, SWV, En Vogue, Destiny’s Child, Total……..but of course The Supremes and all that came before us. We pay homage and take a little from each group for inspiration.
Describe your sound.
We really have a urban sound. Right now we have been dabbling in the trap world. We want to make sure we make something the urban community can relate to…. what’s in the streets…. what people can feel.
What sets you apart from other groups?
There aren’t really any other girl groups out at the time, so we don’t really know how to compare or measure where we stand there but, we are really good friends, and what we have hasn’t been pieced together. The chemistry is really there, and we are making music that we love. We understand how important it is and how much of a blessing it is that we genuinely like each other. We all had our journeys, and we are still together. This separates us from the girl group world that has so many issues that people run from.
What do you think of the current state of R&B and what will it take for there to be a resurgence in the genre?
I think the current state of R&B is sad, so to be honest I think that in order for it to be revived, us as a community has to embrace what makes it so amazing. We bring that cool factor. We aren’t trying; it’s really what we do. We are trying to get back to that feeling that you had in the ’90s that made you love music. There are no girl groups off the top of my head that I can recite the lyrics to their songs. That’s sad, but we can definitely bring that [girl group] to the table at this point.
What’s next for NLA?
We are putting together an EP. We don’t have a release date yet, but we have put together an amazing body of work. Right now we have an amazing single out with Migos called “No Days Off” that has been receiving crazy radio play. We are constantly rehearsing and recording. Soon we will have a visual out for “No Days Off”. We are ready to go!
What other artists have you gotten the chance to work with?
We’ve worked with Shanell from Young Money, Rock City, Ester Dean, Yung LA, and Verse Simmonds.
If you had a wish list who would you want to work with?
Drake…..Nicki Minaj…….Fabolous
Lastly, is there anything else you would like to leave with your fans?
Continue to support us, and continue to follow us. Embrace us for what we are trying to do and bring back. We promise we will not disappoint; the music is amazing. It was even hard for us to even pick a single. We just really went back to the basics and hope fans can appreciate what we are bringing.
