Atlanta rappers Young Thug and Rich Homie Quan have teamed up once again for a new track titled "M.O.M. (Mind On Money)," which you can check out below.

Master P and Lil Wayne Working Together on 'Power' Track, No Limit Forever and Cash Money Mending Relationship? [LISTEN]
Master P has big plans for 2015. The No Limit Forever founder released a clip recently where he raps on a new track featuring Lil Wayne titled "Power." Master P plans on including the tune on his upcoming mixtape, AllHipHop notes. The collaboration may serve as a peace treaty of sorts between Master P's No Limit brand and Cash Money, which famously beefed during the 1990s. It could also be a sign of P moving in on Weezy, who has been critical of Birdman and the YMCMB. -
Rich Homie Quan Shares New Song 'Flex' [LISTEN]
Atlanta rapper Rich Homie Quan has shared a new track titled "Flex," which you can check out below. The track was produced by Nitti Beatz and DJ Spinz and is backed by a pretty excellent electro beat, like a darker and more atmospheric version of Iggy Azalea's "Fancy." Quan's performance is not bad either, often veering into — Auto-Tuned, of course — singing as much as straight-up rapping.You can check out Rich Homie Quan's "Flex" here, via "Miss Info": -
Rich Homie Quan, Yo Gotti Appear on SBOE's 'Better Than Them' with Boosie Badazz [LISTEN]
Queens hip-hop group SBOE — Slow Bucks Over Everything — have shared a new track titled "Better Than Them," featuring guest appearances by Rich Homie Quan, Yo Gotti and Boosie Badazz, which you can check out below. According to "Hot New Hip-Hop," this track originally appeared earlier this year on an SBOE mixtape, only without the guest spots from Quan, Gotti and Boosie, so this seems like a deliberate attempt to turn this into a hit. The hook is decent enough, so it might actually work — though the "Scarface" sample at the beginning is almost laughably clichéd at this point in the history of hip-hop.You can check out SBOE's "Better Than Them" featuring Rich Homie Quan, Yo Gotti and Boosie Badazz here:Here is SBOE's original version of "Better Than Them," just in case you were curious: -
Rich Homie Quan, Young Thug Guest on Nipsey Hussle's "Choke" [LISTEN]
Nipsey Hussle's new mixtape, 'Mailbox Money,' is set to drop tomorrow, Dec. 31, but if that's too long for you to wait for new music, Nipsey has shared a new song titled "Choke" featuring Young Thug and Rich Homie Quan, which you can check out here. The song features some heavy-hitting, dramatic production from London On Da Track and opens with a lengthy sample of Samuel L. Jackson's climactic speech from "Pulp Fiction." The vocals don't seem to be mixed very well though and often rise uncomfortably far above the beat. -
Suge Knight Praises Lil Wayne and Threatens Drake in the Same Interview, Looks to Get 'Even' in 2015
Suge Knight had an interesting interview recently with TMZ in which he discussed his New Year's resolutions, Lil Wayne and Drake. He also mentioned Tupac Shakur. The video is a little unsettling considering the former Death Row Records CEO seems to be making some threats. Hopefully, Suge was just joking, but he does not strike me as one who likes to laugh.Suge is sporting a festive sweater in the video below, puffing on his signature cigar. The most surprising part of the interview is that the Black Kapital Records head would even talk to TMZ — which has caught him in some unflattering moments before. But he does, and the results are chilling."I'm gonna make sure everybody gets their justice," he says after a brief pause. "It's a year for getting even."He does not elaborate on that, but it probably has something to do with Suge getting shot at Chris Brown's pre-VMA party in August. But he said it was not important who shot him, so who knows?"I don't think that's really important, who pulled the trigger and who I seen pulled the trigger," Knight told TMZ in a previous interview. "I think that I'm doing extremely well. I'm happy to be doing well and whatever happens, happens."When asked about a recent Tupac documentary, Suge urges real fans of the rapper to start asking questions and "be more aggressive." -
Birdman, Young Thug Featured In Dej Loaf's "Blood" Music Video [WATCH]
Detroit rapper, Dej Loaf, has shared the music video for her song "Blood," featuring Young Thug and Birdman, which you can check out here. The Be El Be-directed clip finds the three rappers partying and chilling in a few different locations, both indoors and outdoors. It's worth noting that Dej appears to be the only woman in the video, which is appropriate since the song is all about how she has no "hoe in her blood" or any "in her circle." -

Rich Homie Quan Shares 'Ain't Trippin'' Featuring Young Thug, 'Blah Blah Blah' Remix [LISTEN]
Fresh off the success of their recent Rich Gang mixtape, Atlanta rappers Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug have shared a new collaborative track titled "Ain't Trippin'," which you can check out below. It is not clear if this is a leftover from their Rich Gang sessions, though it could also be a new cut, since their co-conspirator Birdman does not make an appearance. Though the track definitely has a typical hip-hop beat — typical for 2014, anyway — there seems to be more singing than rapping going on.You can check out Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug's "Ain't Trippin'" here:Quan and Thug's Rich Gang mixtape "Tha Tour: Part 1" was released in September and spawned six singles: "Tell Em (Lies)," "Imma Ride," "Freestyle," "Soldier," "Milk Marie" and "Flava." "Tha Tour: Part 1" was Quan and Thug's most-recent, full-length release, and neither have yet to release a studio album. Thug claims his debut album will be titled "Tha Carter VI," since Lil Wayne plans on "Tha Carter V" on being his last, while Quan's upcoming album has yet to be given a title."You can expect Drake on my album. You can expect Boosie on my album," Quan told "Hot New Hip-Hop." "You can expect Thug on there. You can expect Wayne ... I gotta get Nicki on there.""That's why I'm still waiting," he continued, "That's why you ain't heard it yet. I'm still working on it. I gotta get Big Sean on there. A lot of these my idols. People I looked up to coming into the game."In other Rich Homie Quan news, the 25-year-old rapper also shared a remix of his track "Blah Blah Blah" yesterday, featuring new verses from Ty Dolla $ign, Fabolous and Dej Loaf.
