Hot New Music: Jack Harlow - "First Class," Paulo Londra - "Chance" and ChaMane - "26"

Hip-hop is dominating the charts from around the world. During the week ending April 9, some hot new music hit streaming sites, including new hits from Louisville, KY rapper Jack Harlow, Argentine artist Paulo Londra and South Korean rapper ChaMane.

Jack Harlow's banger "First Class" rolled out on streaming sites on April 8, with an official visualizer (that's currently trending on YouTube) just days after a preview of the song on social media with the artist in the studio went viral. The rapper samples Fergie’s 2006 hit “Glamorous” in "First Class." According to Chart Data, the new song has already topped the global Spotify chart and has earned the biggest chart debut of the year. "First Class" is a pre-release off Harlow's upcoming project- "Come Home The Kids Miss You," due out on May 6th.

After a nearly three-year hiatus (due to a music contract legal battle) Paulo Londra has released his second single of 2022. The artist dropped his dreamy love-at-first sight melodic hip-hop track- "Chance" on April 6, with an official video on YouTube that has already gotten more than 17-million views. The song is also climbing on the global Spotify chart. "Chance" follows Londra's alt-rock “Plan A,” which dropped on March 23.

While showing the diversity of his flow, rapper ChaMane dropped his 4th album- "26" on April 8, as part of South Korean label Amoeba Culture's 'THE SEED' Project, which supports independent hip-hop and R&B artists. The album includes the Korean drill track- "Boys To Men," (feat. Huh!) and the laid-back perfect for a drive around town song- "Neon Seoul."
