Releases of the week

East coast hip hop releases, week 37

· 12 releases

This week in East Coast hip hop, new releases and retrospectives highlight both current tensions and enduring legacies. Papoose drops a diss track targeting Remy Ma and Claressa Shields, while Mac Miller’s posthumous release 'Butterflies' and Ferg’s 'Imaginary Big Band' offer fresh artistic expressions. Celebrations mark the 25th anniversary of Jay-Z’s 'The Blueprint,' and Fabolous reflects on the symbolic weight of 'Ghetto Fabolous' coinciding with 9/11. Meanwhile, collaborations like Fivio Foreign’s 'Soldier' and Rakim’s 'Rabbit' with Kurupt and Masta Killa underscore the genre’s evolving sound.
