Tyler, The Creator, Quavo, Gucci Mane, and more make appearances on the latest update to the "Fire Emoji" playlist.

Tyler, The Creator secured three of the seven new tracks added to this week's edition of HotNewHipHop's Fire Emoji playlist. The songs derive from the deluxe version of his latest album, Call Me If You Get Lost: The Estate Sale. Other artists to land spots on the newest Fire Emoji include Gucci Mane, Quavo, Nardo Wick, and more.

With Tyler, The Creator, his tracks, "DOGTOOTH," "STUNTMAN," and "WHARF TALK" cracked the list. On the latter two songs, Tyler teams up with Vince Staples and A$AP Rocky respectively. The original version of Call Me If You Get Lost released back in June 2021. It went on to win the Grammy for Best Rap Album, marking Tyler's second time winning the category.

Moving past Tyler, Quavo contributed to the playlist with his new song, "Honey Bun." On the track, he alludes to the death of his Migos partner, Takeoff. “I don’t wanna hear no sorry for my loss," he raps. He also promoted "Honey Bun" with the hashtag "#ForTake." Takeoff was shot and killed outside of a Houston bowling alley back in November. In the months since, both Quavo and Offset have been mourning the late rapper.

With Gucci Mane's contribution, he teamed up with DaBaby and 21 Savage for the song, "06 Gucci." “I feel like it’s me in ’06 and ’07, ’08, and even ’09/ Still hard to kill, the last n***a tried, go ask him, he didn’t survive,” he raps on the song. For the accompanying music video, he recreated several iconic looks from projects like The Trap House and the video “My Kitchen.” For Nardo Wick's part, he collaborated with Lil Baby for "Hot Boy.” Larry June's "Summer Reign" featuring "Ty Dolla $ign" also lands on the playlist.

In recent weeks, Juice WRLD's posthumous single, “The Light,” made the cut, as well as multiple songs off of JPEGMAFIA and Danny Brown's recent collaborative album, Scaring The Hoes. Check out the latest edition of Fire Emoji below.
