Day: July 10, 2021

The 22-year-old Richmond, VA-based rapper, FNF Chop has just released the remix of his bouncy and bass-heavy TikTok-viral track, “Walk Down” featuring Sheff G and Young Nudy. Following its initial release in early January, “Walk Down” was natively uploaded to over a million TikTok videos, streamed over 10 million times, and prompted the Walk Down Dance Challenge with participants including Coi Leray. Like the song’s initial release in January, the “Walk Down” Remix arrives while FNF Chop remains incarcerated in the Richmond Correctional Facility. He was sentenced in June of 2020 after violating his parole by testing positive for marijuana, a substance that has since been decriminalized in his state.

Earlier this spring, his fans learned that FNF Chop contracted COVID-19 twice since he’s been incarcerated. With the help of his mother and his manager, FNF Levy, Chop’s fans united to shed light on the situation by launching the #FreeFNFChop movement and releasing a new video for “Walk Down” which showcased hundreds of supporters doing the Walk Down Dance Challenge. The movement successfully drew attention to FNF Chop’s situation and his story has since been picked up by media outlets including HipHopDX, The Commonwealth Times, Richmond’s FOX 8, and others.

Thankful for the attention and appreciative of the support he’s received from his fans as well as Sheff G and Young Nudy who’ve jumped on the “Walk Down” Remix, FNF Chop remains hopeful for the future and looks forward to releasing even more music upon his release later this year.

The buzzing Atlanta up-and-comer, 2FeetBino has just shared his new video single, “Target.” It’s the latest track from the Paradise East signed rapper who’s been gaining momentum after receiving cosigns from fellow Atlanta artists 21 Savage as well as Metro Boomin’. The new video shows 2FeetBino posted up at his local barbershop, Jesse and Big Ed’s in East Atlanta, reflecting on how his recent notoriety has made him a target while he raps about holding onto the simple things in life. “Target” follows 2FeetBino‘s recent singles, “In Da Spot” (feat. 4L Quan), “Backstroke,” and “Got Me Started.”

2FeetBino made a splash with the release of his Yung Nudy assisted track and video for “No Freestyle” in 2018 and rode the wave into 2019 with the release of his debut mixtape, Broken Dreams. The tape introduced listeners to 2FeetBino‘s soulful voice and heartfelt storytelling, drawing them in with his candor and sincerity. The following year, in 2020, 2FeetBino released his project, A Story Never Told which featured the intimately detailed and deeply personal single, “Apple Pie.” The song recounts 2FeetBino’s struggles as a young father who’s witnessed the hardships of life from a young age and hopes to provide a better life for his daughter who is featured in the video. A Story NeverTold also featured other standout tracks including “Ease the Pain,” the motivating anthem, “Keep Goin,”“Plenty Sense,” and “Rainbow” (feat. Young Nudy and BermudaYae).

“Music saved my life more than anything, that’s why I go so hard.”

EZ Papi released his newest project, Trapped Emotions 2, an Afro-Caribbean-inspired album that successfully supplies the summertime vibes. As artist EZ has created a project inspired by Shakespeare’s story-telling, he showcases an intricate story about love and pain that will surely resonate with his listeners.

“Shakespeare’s work is something I’ve always been a fan of and appreciated,” said EZ in a recent interview with Remixd Magazine. “I wanted to create the same heartbreak and romance he had in his work except turning it into a collection of songs.”

The Kansas City native was brought up on a concentrated blend of Hip-hop, R&B, Reggae, and Dancehall, looking to inspiration from artists like Jay Z, Prince, Michael Jackson, Fela Kuti, Bob Marley, Drake, and Barrington Levy.

“Those are the people who got me into wanting to leave a stamp in the industry,” expressed the artist. “I plan on changing the culture like those guys and becoming legendary all the way around, inside and outside of music!”

By fusing African music with hip-hop and dancehall tendencies, EZ has a universal resonance and one that undoubtedly stands out. As EZ continues to grow as an artist, he plans to use the inspiration from uplifting his fans to fuel his journey.

“I’m passionate about making music not only because it brings joy but it also can heal and save someone’s life. My music is nothing but good energy and dance vibes. I want to keep spreading good energy around the world. The fans and supporters I have inspire me more than anything, it’s almost like I can’t let them down.”

As EZ releases Trapped Emotions 2, he has a message to his fans and supporters to know that “They aren’t the only ones going through emotional roller coasters in life.”
