Ras Kass (@RasKass) & Ab-Soul (@abdashsoul) f/ Dina Rae (@DinaRae13) - “Latency“ (Video)

Two of the West Coast’s most cerebral and uncompromising voices converge as Hip-Hop legend Ras Kass unveils the official music video for “Latency,” featuring acclaimed rapper Ab-Soul. Debuted today (9/8/2026) via YouTube, the visual transforms one of the most metaphysical moments from Ras Kass’ latest album, Leopard Eats Face, into a cinematic journey through locales in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

“Latency” is a philosophical spiral that exists somewhere between consciousness, perception, and the unknown— an ideal canvas for two MCs whose careers have been defined by challenging listeners to look beyond the surface. Ras Kass, one of the West Coast’s most revered lyricists, brings his trademark density and intellectual rigor to the track, while Ab-Soul adds his own distinctive brand of introspection and existential wordplay. Singer/songwriter Dina Rae provides the hypnotic hook, adding a soulful dimension to the track’s otherworldly atmosphere.

Directed, filmed, and edited by Gifted Glitch, the “Latency” music video unfolds across three dramatically different environments. The video was shot at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), an undisclosed LA location featuring a pyramid structure, and in Las Vegas, with each setting contributing to the song’s dreamlike, esoteric quality. Rather than simply illustrating the lyrics, the visual extends the track’s themes into an immersive world where architecture, geography, and symbolism become part of the narrative.

This collaboration represents a natural intersection between two generations of West Coast Hip-Hop. The pairing or Ras Kass and Ab-Soul on “Latency” feels less like a conventional feature and more like a meeting of minds. With the two MCs joining forces for this song and music video, we see a particularly compelling snapshot of the continuum between the West Coast’s foundational underground lyricism and its modern renaissance.

“Latency” is featured on Leopard Eats Face, Ras Kass’ first new album in five years. Released earlier this year, the project marks the latest evolution of an artist whose influence extends far beyond any single era, reaffirming his commitment to lyricism that demands and rewards close attention. The title Leopard Eats Face is a provocation, pointing directly to real-world consequences of voting for the current administration— from aggressive and violent ICE and Border Patrol tactics, to the erosion of civil liberties. Across the project, Ras interrogates power, complicity, and survival, reminding listeners that none of this is accidental—or surprising. The album features cross-generational guest verses from Inspectah Deck, Coast Contra, Onyx, and more.  Singles include "42" with Smif-N-Wessun; "Scar Tissue" with Treach of Naughty By Nature, and Wais P; "Miss Me Yet?" with Timothy Bloom; and the bonus "Mapongo Lions", as heard in Dave Chappelle's latest Netflix special The Unstoppable.

Ras Kass is preparing to release new music and celebrate the 30th anniversary of his classic '96 debut album Soul On Ice this fall. Stay tuned for more.

Nickoe (@Day1_Nickoe) - "Limitless" (Video)

Jackson, Mississippi artist and L.I.E 2 Me Music Group representative Nickoe has released the official music visual for his track “Limitless,” a standout record from his latest mixtape, Trap Motivation II, available now on all major streaming platforms.

Directed and shot by Big Tee Visuals, the “Limitless” visual brings the song’s message to life with a combination of flashy money shots, luxury whips, basketball action, gym scenes, and candid street moments. From the court to the parking lot and even outside Waffle House, the visual captures Nickoe in his element while reinforcing the grind and lifestyle behind the record.

“Limitless” centers on the mentality of getting out of the trenches, running up the money, and staying focused on the next opportunity. Nickoe touches on hitting the road, chasing the bag, and using music as another avenue to create a better life. The track reflects the mindset of someone who refuses to put a ceiling on what is possible.

The visual complements that message without overcomplicating things. Money is flashing, the cars are moving, the basketball is in the air, and Nickoe is surrounded by the energy of everyday life. The result is a visual that feels authentic to the song’s hustle-driven spirit.

With Trap Motivation II, Nickoe continues to build on his sound and perspective, delivering music rooted in ambition, street experience, and the relentless pursuit of success. “Limitless” serves as a fitting representation of that mentality — no boundaries, no limits, and no slowing down.

KARRAHBOOO (@karrahbooo) - "NOT DA 2" (Album)

KARRAHBOOO is back and ready to pick up the momentum. KARRAHBOOO is putting herself front and center with her new project, NOT DA 2. The Atlanta rapper keeps things tight with 11 tracks, building on the laid-back delivery that has become central to her style. The project includes previously released records “WYD,” “NO HOOK,” and “KEEP UP W ME,” while Monaleo, K3, and Zukenee make appearances. Perhaps the most notable guest is Lil Yachty, who reunites with his former Concrete Boys collaborator on “PATCHED IT UP.” Given their highly publicized falling out, the collaboration adds another layer to a project that marks a new chapter for KARRAHBOOO as a solo artist. - via HotNewHipHop
