CASH COBAIN SHARES NEW SINGLE "FISHERRR" (FEAT. BAYSWAG)

The newly-minted Billboard Artist to Watch and sample-drill innovator, Cash Cobain, has just shared his new single "Fisherrr" (feat. BaySwag), along with a From The Block performance. The single follows the recently-released "Dunk Contest", which hit #3 on Apple Music's NYC Chart, in continuing Cash Cobain's hot streak of delivering R-rated anthems over his own ethereal production – creating the playful "sexy drill" sound that he's pioneered and taken to mainstream heights. Introducing his new "Play Cash Cobain" movement that's been gaining traction across social media, and his new saying, "Fisherrr" (pronounced like "for sure") finds Cash Cobain linking up with fellow NY artist BaySwag for a highly-anticipated single (the song has a combined 2m views onTik Tok pre-release). Infused with explicit flirtations and a playful charisma, it's shifting the focus on Cash Cobain from his production work to his solo work. The recent releases arrive on the heels of a career-defining year in 2023 that closed with the production of PinkPantheress' "Nice To Meet You" (feat. Central Cee), which debuted at #20 on Billboard Hot 100 (he also starred alongside her in a nationally-syndicated Apple commercial for the new MacBook). This was preceded by producing Drake's "Calling For You" (feat. 21 Savage), which debuted at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100, DJ'ing at Travis Scott's Cactus Jack x Audemars Piguet event, and releasing his critically-acclaimed debut solo album Pretty Girls Love Slizzy with Giant Music.

Known as the universal pioneer of the influential "sample drill” sound, Cash Cobain is now a solidified household name in the ever-evolving Hip-Hop landscape as both a producer and charismatic emcee. With collaborations with everyone from Drake, PinkPantheress, Lil Yachty, Trippie Redd and LUCKI to Bktherula under his belt, Cash Cobain officially signed to Irving Azoff’s Giant Music last year and dropped his debut solo album Pretty Girls Love Slizzy, paving the way for his bouncy beats to take over the mainstream sound. After being named one of the “50 Innovators Shaping Rap’s Next 50 Years”, and having his track “Vacant” named one of the “100 Best East Coast Hip-Hop Songs of All Time” by Rolling Stone, Cash Cobain used 2023 to live up to these accolades. With the recent releases of "Dunk Contest" and now "Fisherrr" (feat. BaySwag), Cash Cobain is using his collaborative momentum from last year to continue elevating his signature sound, showcasing its influential and ever-growing widespread appeal in the process.

Hey, I'm LVA (lava) and you should join my cult.

Or rather, my cult of ideology. I make music to highlight every bit of the process of healing from heartbreak and trauma. Growing up, I was emotionally isolated, there wasn't really anyone for me to talk to. Now I'm trying to build a community of people who support each other through it all. Together, we can build our LVA Cult.

Two OPM shows, see ya there:

Falling up through noonday See there’s a fire on the horizon Burning up all that you know It’s an air that’s changing more than you could ever count on caught up in another countdown

Time is running away from us and I try to act as if it don’t matter But I’ll love you Through freezing

Calling time when you find some sort of truth colliding With the breath you leave behind And the trees they’ll take it off of your hands The trees they’ll take it off your hands I hope you understand

Time is running away from us and I try to act as if it don’t matter But I’ll love you Through freezing

Where do we go from here? When unfolding comes And you go on your way Distant summer calling Where did June go? I saw you running

Seeing all the truth that sinks its weight into your bones Little rivers, weaving figures for hours on end It’s pulsing in your head Where did June go? Where did June go?

Bronx Bruiser DThang Calls Out the "Drill Cappers" in His New Single

Emerging from the busy Bronx drill scene, DThang stood out with his pure vocal tone and take-no-prisoners bars. Recently released from jail after his exoneration from pending charges, DThang has wasted no time in rebuilding the momentum he had before he went inside. Today, the 23-year-old rapper clears up misconceptions wit hhis new single "Drill Cappers." Running roughshod atop racing piano arpeggios, the Bronx bruiser takes aim at those who think drill music is just a game, dabbling in the culture while ignoring its life-or-death stakes: "I do this sh*t for the game, and you do that sh*t for the clout," he asserts. In the video, DThang hangs with his crew in his home borough, smoking outside the towers and celebrating his wins at the club.

"Drill Cappers" continues DThang's fiery start to 2024. After the rapper's exoneration earlier this year, DThang didn't wait to leave jail before dropping new music–he shared the invigorating freestyle "Hard Day's Night / Last Day In" just before his release. The heartfelt music video for "Last Day In" racked up over 3.6 million views in three weeks. Upon his release ,DThang was greeted by his mentor French Montana, who gifted him a fresh piece of jewelry and took him shopping for the latest fits. On Valentine's Day, DThang delivered a fresh ode to all of his smoochies, with "Smoochie Valentine," inspired by Nelly and featuring a cameo by the legendary rapper in the video, which reached the Top 20 on YouTube's Trending Chart for Music with over 1.3 million views.

DThang emerged in 2021, leading a Bronx drill wave that took his city by storm. He tore up the streets with songs like "Gz Bop," "LIKE" and "Play It Back," generating tens of millions of views on his raw and authentic music videos. DThang's 2021 "On The Radar Freestyle" brought his momentum to a head–to this day, it's the second most-viewed videos on the On The Radar channel. Alongside peers like Kay Flock, Sha Gz, and Bando, DThang was set to define the sound of Bronx drill for years to come.

Now fully exonerated and back in the drill game for good, DThang is ready to turn heads in and out of the Five Boroughs with his hard-nosed rhymes. Keep your eyes peeled for a new project, coming soon.
