Milwaukee’s Huey V has made waves with his latest single, “Mo Money, Mo Problems,” produced by the talented V Spence. Signed to Memphis Bleek’s Warehouse Music Group under the prestigious Roc Nation, Huey V continues to carve a unique path in the hip-hop world.

From Streets to Stardom: Huey V’s Reflective Journey in “Mo Money, Mo Problems”

The single stands out as a contemplative piece, delving into Huey V’s journey from the harsh realities of street life to his current fame. His lyrics in “Mo Money, Mo Problems” are a poignant reflection of his past struggles and the loss of his best friend, a theme that resonates deeply with listeners. Huey’s raw and candid storytelling over the slow, mesmerizing beats creates a powerful narrative about survival and remorse.

Memphis Bleek’s Comeback: A Testament to Mentorship and Legacy

Memphis Bleek himself adds a layer of depth to the track, marking his return to the music scene after a decade. Bleek’s collaboration with Huey V signifies a strong mentor-protégé bond and symbolizes the passing of the torch in the rap industry. Bleek’s distinct, brash flow complements the track’s narrative, highlighting the cyclical nature of rap fame and mentorship.

A Visual Story: Music Video Directed by Shula the Don

The release of “Mo Money, Mo Problems” is accompanied by a captivating music video directed by Shula the Don. Filmed in the heart of Santo Domingo, the video features Huey V and Memphis Bleek navigating the Dominican Republic’s capital. It’s a visual representation of their journey, with the presence of their crew symbolizing their roots and community ties. The music video’s debut on a Times Square billboard, in partnership with BET, signifies the track’s broad appeal and global reach.

The Inspiration Behind the Music Video

Huey V’s choice to shoot the video in the Dominican Republic’s campos is a nod to “trenches across the world,” as he puts it. This global perspective is integral to the track’s theme, emphasizing various communities’ universal struggle and resilience.

Huey V’s Rising Star: A Look at His Musical Evolution

Since catching the eye of Memphis Bleek in 2020 and his consequent signing to Warehouse Music Group, Huey V has shown remarkable growth as an artist. From his debut single, “No Regrets,” to his first EP “As Above,” his journey has been marked by significant milestones, including singles like “Persuasion,” “P.M.E.,” and “RIP BNG.” His upcoming sequel EP is highly anticipated, showcasing his evolution with hits like “More Love” and “After the Deal,” which amassed over a million views in mere days.

The Power of Collaboration: “Derek Jeter” and Beyond

Huey V’s collaboration with RJAE on “Derek Jeter” is another highlight of his career, showcasing impeccable lyrical prowess from both artists. This track is part of Roc Nation’s “Humble Soles” mixtape, a project celebrating hip hop’s 50th anniversary featuring artists like HDBeenDope, Reuben Vincent, Vic Mensa, Rapsody, and Maiya the Don.
