Ten More Hip Hop Tracks Twisting my Melon, Man.

It is time once again for a run down of the latest Ten Hip Hop tracks I have been blasting in the car ride home from work. Some of these are very recent and a few are tracks I have been jamming for a while or I found digging through some of these guy's back catalog. Remember to turn up the bass and lay low on the treble. As always, thanks to the good folks at Street Flava, especially D Solo!

Not all of these are super current, but I am always digging up older stuff I missed out on.

The last time I made a list of Ten Current Hip Hop Faves was in June.  It is now nearing October, and the music never stops coming.  Between my old stand-by Street Flava (The SF !), Houston's hip hop radio stations, and the suggestions and recommendations of my pals over at the Sonic Youth Gossip Forum (specifically the good folks in the thread Louder's Hip Hop Cafe, currently in its 5th incarnation), I am always awash with new tunes and old bangers I may have missed, ready to add to my ever-growing Spotify playlist which I title A+ Whip Songs.

RXTT's Top Ten Current Hip Hop Tracks

I love music.  I love finding new tunes and groups to listen to.  Here in Houston, Texas, there is a long-running video show called STREET FLAVA, hosted by H-town's own D Solo, which showcases hip hop videos mostly from the Dirty South (Houston, the rest of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Atlanta).  It airs on Saturdays at 11:00 PM on KTXH, Channel 20.

I have been been watching this show off and on for over 20 years.  I originally watched it on the Houston PBS station but too many old white folks complained after tuning in their beloved PBS and seeing too much bootie poppin' for their sensibilities.  After picking up some sponsors (who have their own hilarious commercials as well) it moved to KTXH and has been "The Soul of the South" ever since.

What is great about Street Flava is that videos from international stars such as Drake or Rihanna will air alongside local independent rappers such as Psyco Sid, Frank Nitty Supreem, or huge up-and-comers like Travis Scott and Future.  Often, their tracks will air on Street Flava before I hear them on the H's hip hop radio stations.  It is a great resource.  I have never met D Solo but if I did I would thank him for the work he puts into the show and for constantly sharing the good tunes.  Between his show, the DJ's in Screwston that play the new bomb tracks, and mixtapes found online, I get to keep an ear on the Third Coast Hip Hop, and bangin' tracks in general.  It is just awesome.

Here are, currently, my ten favorite Hip Hop videos.


O.T. Genasis - "Cut It"

Future - "Stick Talk"

Young Greatness - "Moolah"

Young Thug - "Best Friend"

Travis Scott - "Mamacita"

2 Chainz, ft. Lil Wayne - "Bounce"

TY Dolla $ign - "Blase'"

Bryson Tiller - "Don't"

Kevin Gates - "2 Phones"

Travis Scott - "Antidote"
