HoodTrophy Bino - "The Invasion" (Album)

Los Angeles hip-hop force HoodTrophy Bino just dropped his new album, THE INVASION, a 14-track multi-regional street movement featuring some of the most impactful voices in rap today.  THE INVASION is a full-scale assault blending raw street storytelling, melodic pain music, razor-sharp lyricism, and heavyweight features from across the country like Rio Da Yung OG, SMoney, Bravo the Bagchaser, Star2, Tadoe, OMB Peezy, Jehkai, Peysoh, and Spiffie Luciano. A bold evolution from his previous work, THE INVASION positions HoodTrophy Bino as a national breakout threat, fusing LA’s signature bounce with Atlanta trap, Chicago drill, Midwest street rap, and melodic Southeast Asian R&B influences. “This project is me taking over my lane. Everything I went through -  the losses, the wins, the pressure- it’s all in this tape,” says Bino.  “Before They Tell” sets the tone -  tense, paranoid, and razor-focused. By the time he hits the reflective “Wish Everybody Well,” Bino is already deep in his bag. “With the Bloods Tonight” flips the script, pairing Bino and Bravo the Bagchaser for a smooth, atmospheric standout that shows off his melodic side. Closing with the cinematic “No Way,” THE INVASION feels like the most complete version of Bino we’ve heard. The beats slam with heavy bass and West Coast bounce, but the project flexes range -  from street heaters (“Gun ’Em Down,” “Kill Zone”) to coast-to-coast collabs (“Drillz,” “We All Shine”) to vulnerable slow-burners (“God Made a Way,” “Bout You”). Coming out of South Central LA, Bino has built a fast-expanding fanbase with his charismatic delivery, explosive performances, and viral moments. His songs can be heard on stations across the nation including SiriusXM The Heat, Power 106, 96.1 The Beat, and Power 105, and events like SneakerCon, Big 3, LA Clippers games, Rams games and many more. With THE INVASION, he declares himself one of the most exciting new voices in the West Coast scene. “I’m not just representing my city — I’m kicking the door down for everybody around me,” Bino adds. “Some of us never had a childhood to remember. We became soldiers before we learned how to dream. People think I ‘made it,’ but my family still struggling — that’s what keeps the fire in me.This album is me saying I’m not comfortable yet. This is just the beginning.”

Star2 (@Star2Official) - "Lessons" (Album) + "Ohhhh!" f/ Lil BK (Video)

Asian hip-hop / pop artist Star2 just dropped his new album Lessons, a powerful new project written as a personal letter to his younger self. A Thai refugee and a driving force in the Ka-ren music community, this collection of tracks rings with an international heartbeat. The album features a dynamic lineup of collaborators including Eh La, Lil BK, heartbreaka, Shadow, RayRay, Lian2x, and more. Each voice brings a new emotional layer - from smooth melodies to street grit to culturally rich textures - making the project both deeply personal and globally resonant. Lessons is about transforming the chaos, heartbreak, and temptations of his teenage years into a blueprint for growth, focus, and self-love. Across the project, he confronts past mistakes with raw honesty and hard-earned confidence, inviting listeners into a journey from distraction to purpose, from instant highs to long-term vision. The standout focus track, “Ohhhh!” with Lil BK, pairs hypnotic production and cinematic visuals with a message that shines through the flex: success and luxury mean nothing without real love and the people who truly stay by your side. Star2 confides, “As you get older you learn to focus and prioritize and to sacrifice. You learn to love yourself first and stop chasing love and stop chasing people who are not for you. I would tell my younger self, ‘Never give up on your dreams. Stop chasing: love, people, quick money. Instead, chase your dreams and your best life.’ Finally, love is a process. Sometimes we have to move on. Sometimes love comes later. Life teaches us to be patient. Which is possibly the biggest lesson of all.” Star2’s story is one of survival and triumph. After the Burmese Army destroyed his village, he and his grandmother came to San Diego through a lottery, confronting extreme poverty while starting over. Music became his anchor, a way to channel grief into purpose. Today, that resilience has led to collaborations with Soulja Boy, $tupid Young, Mozzy, MBNel, Luh Kel, Lil Poppa, HoodTrophy Bino, YSN Flow, and MarMar Oso, and more than 15 million views on TikTok.

HoodTrophy Bino - "No Way" (Video)

Fresh off his hit track "I Want Her" featuring Kalan.FrFr and opening gigs for artists like Trippie Redd and Chris Brown, rapper HoodTrophy Bino unveils his new single and video "No Way."

"No Way” cuts straight to the heart for an unflinching dedication to loyalty and brotherhood. The entire song pivots on one gut-punch scenario: “Sign this deal you rich for life… but you gotta slime your brother out tonight.” The refusal hook, "No way, no way,” lands like a vow. Over a haunting, minor-key beat with bells that ring like funeral chimes and 808s that crawl with temptation, subtle street ambience (cars rushing past, scattered block voices) pulls the listener deep into Bino’s world - one forged by survival, shared struggle, and unbreakable bonds.

"No Way" is from Bino's upcoming album The Invasion set to drop next month. He will perform on Big Sad 1900's tour starting at the end of November. Keep up with HoodTrophy Bino HERE
