Cole’s “Middle Child” balances introspection and industry critique, highlighting his role bridging hip-hop generations. Produced by T-Minus, it became his highest-charting single at No. 4 on Billboard and earned 3× Platinum certification, blending personal reflection with a polished yet familiar sound.

Chris Brown’s “Yeah 3x” injects club-ready energy with its electro dance-pop sound, charting globally and going quintuple platinum in Australia despite plagiarism disputes with Calvin Harris. Meanwhile, AJ Tracey’s “Psych Out!” trades gritty bars for melodic finesse, achieving a No. 18 peak in the UK charts but leaning towards polish over rawness. Migos’ “Walk It Talk It,” featuring Drake, thrives on repetition, supported by a retro “Soul Train”-inspired video, peaking at No. 10 on Billboard and earning a 6× Platinum certification. Blueface’s “Thotiana,” backed by viral remixes, ascended to No. 8 on Billboard, though its sparse production and offbeat flow rendered it more fleeting cultural moment than rap cornerstone.
