New Music Friday - New Albums From Trippie Redd, Rod Wave, DVSN & Ty Dolla $ign + More Published on:Aug 19, 2021, 10:17 PM by 0 Few and far in between are the weeks when there arent an overwhelming number of releases to comb through. To embrace what appears to be a lowkey New Music Friday, HipHopDX has curated a concise and targeted lineup of albums coverage highlighted by Trippie Redds long-awaited Pegasus follow-up project. Theres also a deluxe album effort to look forward to, courtesy of Rod Wave, and the meticulously comforting R&B collaboration masterwork between dynamic producer-vocalist duo DVSN and feature-God Ty Dolla $ign. Peep the full list of the hottest releases from the week ending Friday (August 20). Trippie Redd Trip At Knight For the majority of 2021, Trippie Redd has been riding the tidal wave of success his groundbreaking Pegasus album, and subsequent Travis Barker-produced rock-themed follow-upgenerated earlier this year. Now, after shifting gears and entering into album mode with the release of his colossal Miss The Rage single featuring Playboi Carti and nationwide tour plans,the king of 1400 gang unveils his Billboard-ready Trip At Knight album. Embbeded within the 18-track sonic excursion are features from Drake, Lil Uzi Vert, Ski Mask The Slump God, Polo G, Lil Durk, Sada Baby and Baby Face Ray, as well as the late streaming juggernauts XXXTENTACIONand Juice WRLD.

Fast forward to August, the Alamo Records signee surprised his fans with his moving Time Heals single and a nine-song Soulfly (Deluxe)offering featuring guest verses from Lil Durk and Kodak Black.

Along with the posthumous Mac Miller feature, the 11-track collab includes a special guest verse from YG. Rick Hyde Plates 2 The Black Soprano Family is growing. Per the direction of BSF head-honcho Benny The Butcher, Rick Hyde is charging forward with his Plates 2 debut project following his appearance on several Griselda projects this year, including on Benny & 38 Speshs Trust The Sopranos compilation, Bennys The Plugs I Met 2 and his most recent project, the NFT album Pyrex Picasso. With the added help of feature verses from Benny The Butcher, Westside Gunn, A$AP Ferg and G Herbo, Plates 2 comes complete top-notch production as well, from big names such as The Alchemist and Harry Fraud.
