Another round of staff picks from HNHH.

We back at it again with our weekly HNHH TIDAL Wave playlist. As previously announced, we teamed up with TIDAL for an exclusive playlist which features tracks that the HNHH team has been bumping recently. We've had a ton of solid new music lately from some of the biggest players in the game, so let's break it down.

With the Raptors taking home the NBA Championship and Drake's demand for a side of dip with his chips, he blessed us with two new songs this week, the mafioso-influenced "Omerta," and the Rick Ross-assisted banger, "Money In The Grave." We also have a few cuts with Drake's arch nemesis on the playlist this week as well. GoldLink's "Cokewhite" ft. Pusha T and Benny's "18 Wheeler" with Push made the cut. Other tracks off of GoldLink's Diaspora include "Zulu Screams" with Maleek Berry and Bibi Bourelly and "No Lie" ft. WizKid. We also got that new Dreamville cut, "Down Bad" with J. Cole, Young Nudy, J.I.D, Bas and EARTHGANG. With Bandana on the way, there wasn't any doubt that Freddie Gibbs & Madlib's Greek Freak-inspired, "Giannis" with Anderson .Paak deserved a place on this week's playlist.

If you haven't already, sign up for TIDAL right here.
