Bahja Rodriguez has been on fire to start off 2023. After announcing her Global Distribution Partnership with The Orchard, she has consistently been putting out heat. Now, she is back with a visual to pair with her fan favorite, “You.” The Dopeoverdose-directed mini-movie shows a mature Bahja Rodriguez showcasing her growth as a vocalist like never before. Bahja has come a long way since her time as “Miss Beauty” with the popular teen group, OMG Girlz. Today, she proves she can stand toe-to-toe with anyone as a solo act. 

Following the success of her last two singles, she is gifting fans with her first official music video of 2023. Bahja is showing a different side of her. She will not settle regarding what she deserves as a woman. 

This new release comes after much anticipation. Bahja Rodriguez has been busy the last couple of months. During various press stops, she has hinted at an album coming in the near future. Be on the lookout for more updates from ATL’s best-kept secret via her social media platforms.

 Rising critically acclaimed San Antonio, TX rapper Mike Dimes shares a new single and music video entitled “Kiss N Tell” [feat. Dro Kenji] today. Watch “Kiss N Tell” HERE. Listen to “Kiss N Tell” HERE.

With laidback smoked-out production, the track layers glowing keys above skittering hi-hats. Mike drops hypnotic meanwhile, Dro Kenji rolls through with a melodic refrain and head-nodding bars of his own. The accompanying visual opens on this dynamic duo stranded on the side of the highway. As the beat kicks into high gear, the clip jumps from dreamy footage in an old school saloon to shots of the rising stars in front of a massive Texas flag and back on the road. Dimes will never “Kiss N Tell” though…

It lands in the wake of the fan and critical favorite “Heavy Metal.” The latter has already gathered 1.1 million Spotify streams and counting as well as 139K YouTube views on the music video. Right out of the gate, Rolling Stone touted it among “All the Songs You Need to Know This Week,” and Brooklyn Vegan proclaimed, “Rising Texas rapper Mike Dimes follows his great 2022 album In Dimes We Trust with this booming new single.” HotNewHipHop summed it best, “After having an undeniably triumphant 2022, Mike Dimes is preparing to bring the same energy into 2023.”

Meanwhile, he will embark on a string of tour dates this Spring, kicking off with Mike Madness at Cornell University tomorrow March 25. Check out the full confirmed itinerary below.

Delivering an ambitious creative statement, critically acclaimed Atlanta rapper, activist, and “street poet” HUNXHO presents his anxiously awaited new album, 22 [300 Entertainment], today. Listen HERE.

On this 22-track blockbuster body of work, he infuses inventive production with his signature melodic flows punctuated by hard-earned knowledge and hypnotic hooks. As his most personal body of work, 22 effectively brings listeners closer than ever to HUNXHO. The number holds a special place in his heart. It signifies home as he grew up on 2nd Ave. It earmarks growth as he inked his first record deal at 22-years-old. Not to mention, the album cover features a tattoo of 22 on his stomach, while the numbers adorn his eyelids.

At the same time, the album uncovers the full picture of who he is. He exhibits an eternal thirst for knowledge himself as evinced by his musical evolution. Among many highlights, piano and strings underscore his motivational mantras on the instantly inspirational “48 Laws of Power” as he runs through commandments for life. Elsewhere, “Top Floor” elevates his magnetic melodies above skittering hi-hats as he declares, “I’m the top dog.”

He set the stage for 22 with “Uh Huh” [feat. Tee Grizzley]. It’s just starting to gain traction on streaming platforms. Meanwhile, HotNewHipHop raved, “The track is undeniably catchy, showcasing the raw talent and vocal tone of both artists. The production, lyrics, and overall vibe of the song are modern quintessential Atlanta rap, making it a must-listen for any fan of the genre.” Additionally, the project boasts the fan favorite “Thug Baby.”

Check out the full tracklisting below.

He recently sat down with Inked Magazine for an exclusive interview, and the outlet raved, “within only a few years, he has flourished by leaps and bounds and now stands alongside some of the most praiseworthy players in the current scene.” Additionally, he delivered a standout live studio rendition of “Highly Performing” at MajorStage.
