Freddie Gibbs, Lil Durk & Kevin Gates Dominate This Week’s “Fire Emoji” Playlist

Happy Halloween, all! It’s a strange year and Halloween might not be the same for most people as it once was. Hopefully, if you are going out, you’re remaining safe and maintaining physical distance from one another. Staying at home is easily the responsible choice but regardless of what you’re doing, we’re back with another round of picks for this week’s “Fire Emoji” playlist for you to vibe out to this evening. Here’s the breakdown:

A few weeks removed from the Lakers historic championships in the NBA Bubble, and the long-awaited collaboration between Freddie Gibbs and Big Sean arrived. “4 Thangs,” produced by Hit-Boy, is a refreshing reminder of how long both Sean and Gibbs have come since their 2010 cover on the XXL Freshman cover. Machine gun flows and a whole lot of swag, Hit-Boy might actually go down as the Coach of the Year.

Kevin Gates has quietly appeared on a few collaborations over the months, though his solo efforts seem to indicate that a project is underway. Though a year removed from I’m Him, the rapper dropped off his latest single, “Weeks.” It was only a necessary addition for this week’s “Fire Emoji” playlist 

Lil Durk’s been preparing a few projects. The Voice is apparently on the way while his collaborative project with Metro Boomin appears to still be coming soon. The self-proclaimed “Chicago’s Jay-Z” paired up with two staples from Atlanta for “Stay Down.” 

Other records included on this week’s Fire Emoji playlist include Blac Youngsta’s new collaboration with Moneybagg Yo and Lil Baby, Tierra Whack’s “Dora,” and Black Migo Scooter’s new track with Zaytoven and Future.

Kieran James Honors Memory with “Part of the Grind”

Honk Magazine Filter

Singer-songwriter Kieran James delivers a devastating new single with “Part of the Grind,” a track to tackle the tangled emotions behind loss and memory. A love letter penned to a close friend who faced severe cognitive decline, the song’s emotional heft feels universal yet heartbreakingly personal.

Set to delicate instrumentation and achingly sung vocals, “Part of the Grind” is both a lament and an honoring, a means of remembering while addressing the unavoidable cost of time and illness. His voice floats, leaving room for silence and the long pauses that so often come with grief. But in that silence, there is warmth as well, a refusal to let memory be totally extinguished.

Resilience is also implied in the song’s title, a reminder that even in heartbreak, life goes on and holding the memory of someone stays with the rhythm of everyday living. it’s an anthem for anyone who has ever looked on witnessing decline, mixed sorrow with love.

In Kieran James’s “Part of the Grind,” we hear music as well as go behind it. He gives us room feel, to mourn, and to honor. In the process, he turns private pain into something achingly universal, a song for everyone who has either loved or lost.
