Kingdom Kome has “No LLove” in new single / video ft. D.V Alias Khryst
“They don’t really love you.” Kingdom Kome shines light on snakes in the grass on “No Llove” (Walking With Enoch Music) The newest single from the global hip-hop ambassador also features chorus and guest verse from fellow Lo-Life movement rep D.V Alias Khryst. The somber harp laced instrumental was produced by long-time Kingdom Kome collaborator RUEN.
Speaking on the creation of the track Kingdom Kome relayed “me and DV were chopping it up about the music industry, the fake love and the snakes so we cooked this up.” The duo filmed a video for the track as well (link below).

“No LLove” will appear on Kingdom Kome’s next solo album (to drop in early 2026). However it tops an extraordinarily busy 2025 including five albums and a few singles. RUEN Produced a few of those albums including Dirty Linens 2 the second full-length collaboration album between Kingdom Kome and Brockton, MA’s masked menace G Fam Black. RUEN also fully aced the Barrel Reserve LP, a more elegant and hazy work.

All Said And Done, the latest chapter of Hieroglyphics is here! The third official full-length album from the Oakland, California super-crew is now available via streaming, vinyl and CD editions (links below) with hand-drawn album cover courtesy of Shomari Smith. A legendary amalgamation of hip-hop entities, Hieroglyphics is composed of Casual, Souls Of Mischief (a quartet composed of A-Plus, Opio, Phesto and Tajai), Del The Funky Homosapien, Domino, DJ Toure and Pep Love.
Recorded over a nine-month period in 2025, All Said And Done (the first official Hieroglyphics release since 2013 mixtape The Kitchen) is a fully self-produced affair (with tracks handled by A-Plus, Domino, DJ Toure with the only additional assistance from multi-instrumentalist Jim Greer and cuts on one track by DJ D-Styles of The Beat Junkies). Speaking on the album title, Casual stated that “it refers to this album being the skill level that we would like to be remembered for.” He also says that the album track “Uplifted” is a personal highlight that will “last to tell the story of HIero if no other song does.”
An official video for the track “The Way That It Be” featuring performances from Casual, Pep Love and Tajai was just released (link below).
