Meet 41, The Brooklyn Hip-Hop Group Taking Over New York City

By Andre Gee

A throng of teenagers are chasing a double-decker bus through Manhattan’s Washington Square Park hoping to get a glimpse of Brooklyn drill sensations 41 , a group comprised of Brooklynites Jenn Carter , Kyle Richh , and TaTa . Republic Records, their label, wrapped the bus with their faces and invited fans to join them on a ride through Manhattan. The hourslong journey is a big occasion because New York City isn’t so keen on letting artists in this scene hold events to interact with their fans. 

Timberland jokes aside, the world is always enthralled by whatever’s hot in New York; Ice Spice’s rapid rise is just the latest example. 41 could be next. They’re all distinctive and charismatic in their own way. When asked what each member brings to the group, TaTa points to each member and succinctly notes, “The lyrics (Jenn Carter), the voice (Kyle Rich), and the energy (himself).” 

Editor’s picks

Every awful thing trump has promised to do in a second term, the 250 greatest guitarists of all time, the 500 greatest albums of all time, the 50 worst decisions in movie history.

When the bus meets them near Republic’s office, they giddily hop around on the top level like kids on a field trip. Richh is kneeling on the bus’ side railing, and his friends ask him to get off. “When you ever seen me fall off a bus?!,” he hilariously retorts about something that has indeed never happened to a rapper. Today’s journey takes them from Republic’s studios in Chelsea to the UMG headquarters in Columbus Circle — but it all started in Brooklyn.

How Cash Cobain Plans on Taking Over the Rap World

Everything we know about the gang indictment involving sheff g and sleepy hallow, new york drill's complicated relationship with youtube.

TaTa and Richh started taking their career seriously in the late 2010s, but Carter, who started rapping at 17, was mainly writing for her own sake. She says she wrote songs to 50 Cent beats and recorded them on BandLab for personal gratification. During the COVID quarantine, Richh asked her to come to the studio and record with the rest of their friends. In time, 41 member Dee Billz introduced TaTa to Richh and Carter during a studio session, and the trio experienced an immediate creative spark. When asked what made them realize their chemistry, Richh doesn’t overthink it: “Since the first song, bro, it was just there.”

It’s easy to see what he means. Our conversation often meandered into tangents as they joked and bantered with each other, including an extended discussion on TaTa’s water and sugar consumption (TaTa called his mother for backup against Richh and Carter’s condemnation of his diet). At one point Richh and TaTa begin to discuss something confidential and they abruptly clam up in front of me and the others in the room. Their rapport during our hourlong discussion elucidates that 41 is no mere business arrangement. 

“When I was in the studio, it’s 10 people all in the stu, and I only got 30 minutes,” Carter says about the early days. “I’d rather get on a song with my mans than do my own shit. That’s really how it was. I ain’t going to even lie. Making songs with my mans is cool! Especially, because it’s putting him on, it’s putting me on. We helping each other.”

About 20 kids are waiting for the bus’ first stop at Washington Square Park, including the two kids who ran several blocks to meet the group — unfortunately, they’re under 18 and can’t take the ride. One woman asks “Where’s Jenn?!” in a way that would be perceived as a tad aggressive if this weren’t New York City. She eventually makes it onto the bus and to the back where Carter is, though I don’t hear their conversation. Unfortunately, it’s not all good vibes; a member of the 41 entourage notices a cop from their local Brownsville precinct at the stop and references an unfavorable interaction they had with them. They’re in an entirely different borough from Brownsville; even on a celebratory day, the city establishment’s surveillance of the rap scene persists. 

Many overlook the NYPD’s predacity because hip-hop isn’t gifted the artistic license of other music genres; the drill scene in particular has long faced reductive criticism that it’s nothing but gang members dissing each other. That perception has hindered artists’ ability to put on shows and other public events.  In 2022, Hot 97 DJ Drewski said that he would no longer play songs that included disses toward dead rivals — that was before 41’s “Notti Bop,” a controversial diss toward late rapper Notti Osama, who was fatally stabbed in 2022. The song’s “bop” dance simulates someone being stabbed. The song and dance went viral, with some gawking at how incendiary it was, and others obliviously dancing along because it was a TikTok trend. 

That’s probably not happening tomorrow though, so until then, 41 says they’re aware of the genre’s criminalization and moving accordingly. “I ain’t going to lie, [the stigma] is a lot,” Ricch says. “[The] drill scene came with a lot of violence, all that bullshit, you feel me? So we came out of that.” TaTa adds, “They trying to stop the drill music. We think it’s fun. A new vibe. Evolve the sound a little bit. Because music changes every day. People keep saying drill going to die. Drill is not dying, it’s just turning into something new. Just like how hip-hop turned into something new.” They reference wanting to bring “fun to drill,” and also say they’re no longer interested in dissing. Richh says, “We stopped feeding into the bullshit” and TaTa adds, “When you ignore them, it’s better bro.”

That’s not to say they’re completely above throwing a shot. A couple of months ago, rapper Deeplay4keeps criticized Jenn Carter on Instagram Live. Carter decided to make light of the moment, sampling Dee’s sarcastic “Jenn Jenn Jenn” comment and turning it into “JennJennJenn,” a fun, uptempo diss that feels more in the realm of Drake’s “Back To Back” or 50 Cent’s “Window Shopper” than a flagrantly disrespectful diss. When I ask Carter about it, she’s terse about it in the way a basketball player who just scored 50 can let the stats speak for themselves.

George clooney phones white house after biden rebukes wife’s work on israel warrants, 'house of the dragon' season 2 repeats same thrills — and mistakes — as season 1, alex jones will sell off infowars to help pay $1.5 billion he owes to sandy hook families.

“We was mad locally lit, but we was living in the hood,” TaTa recalls. “I used to be waking up, walking to the store [for a] bacon, egg, and cheese [and we’d] see all the kids [getting on] the school bus. They used to be going crazy.” But now all three members said they’re no longer living in Brownsville as they’re on the road to stardom. They tell me about wanting to travel to Africa, collaborate with the likes of Drake, and go diamond. Despite their progress, they all say they don’t feel like they’ve made it. For Richh, the mindset is, “Always feel satisfied, but don’t ever be complacent. You got to always keep going.“

It’s just after 5 PM, and due to a later obligation, I have to hop off the bus before the final destination at the UMG office. I asked them to let me off near the Rolling Stone offices. Serendipitously, I realize they let me off right on 41st Street. But then again, I tell myself, every block in Manhattan was 41’s that day.

41 World: Not the Album

By Alphonse Pierre

RiteOrWrongKVH Entertainment / Republic

November 30, 2023

In early 2022, the Brownsville trio 41—rappers Kyle Richh , Jenn Carter , and TaTa, all just a couple years removed from high school—relaunched a Brooklyn drill scene that had been decimated by jail and death . It’s hard to point to one specific breakout moment, but it’s probably their first On the Radar cypher from May 2022, which had a volcanic, anything-could-happen energy not far off from old DJ Clue radio freestyles. No surprise that it’s the most watched episode of the series, beating out viral sessions by the likes of Ice Spice and Drake .

Their profile rose in the fall after they released “ Notti Bop ,” a low, attention-seeking song and dance mocking the death of Harlem rapper Notti Osama, the 14-year-old younger brother of DD Osama . As if it never happened, they then made a sharp pivot to party anthems, infusing the no-holds barred spirit of drill with the breakneck rhythms of Jersey club. Others in New York had tried to do this, but none leaned as far as 41, and new doors opened up to them: They’ve started to play local shows (a rarity for drill stars, given the intensity of police surveillance), and broken through to gatekeepers like Funk Flex and Angie Martinez at a time when corporatized NYC radio has kept its distance from the subgenre.

Now they’ve got their first project, 41 World: Not the Album. (For some reason, they decided not to just call it 41 World: The Mixtape ). It’s a formal introduction to the crew, complete with all the expected extras—solo tracks, singing, a major name remix of their biggest hit—none of which are necessary, because they sound the best when it’s just the three of them going at full speed. Like on “Run That!,” which gives M.O.P.’s buckwild classic “ Ante Up ” the club treatment with throbbing drums and gun clicks. It’s a real headbanger: Jenn delivers the hook with the intensity of Gunnery Sergeant Hartman , TaTa chants “Go get that nigga” like he’s in a football huddle, and KR screams “Brownsville, we got the motion” like he’s about to combust into flames. Another highlight is “Stomp Stomp,” the trio’s drill spin on “ Crank That .” Yeah, I know. Get your eyerolls out of the way now. But from KR’s rowdy opening bars (“In the party I’m not havin’ fun/Like, thinkin’ ’bout usin’ my gun”) they breathe new life into what could have easily been nothing but nostalgia bait.

At times, they take the well-traveled route of drill stars trying to shed the “drill” label by breaking out the melodies and just throwing some AutoTune on their voice. I understand why—opportunities for drill rappers are slim—but they have been doing just fine. It wouldn’t be that much of a problem if the singing was any good, though, which it’s not. Like on Jenn Carter’s lovey-dovey solo track “Problems,” the verses are OK, but the sung hook is brutal—it belongs on a bad J.I the Prince of NY album. TaTa’s swings are similarly a tough listen; whatever XXX or Juice WRLD inspiration he’s absorbed on “Too Far Gone” doesn’t cut it. Actually, of the three solo songs, Kyle Richh’s “Goodbye” is the only noteworthy one, a dreamy therapy session that adds some depth without making him seem like an entirely different rapper.

But there’s nothing on 41 World comparable to lead single “Bent,” one of the best New York rap songs of the year. Co-produced by L.A. journeyman Synthetic and MCVertt , one of the architects of the club rap revival in Newark, it has the contagious, house party-ready bounce and homegrown soul missing from so many trend-chasing club and drill fusions. Throughout the nearly three-minute track, 41 are connected at the hip, and the energy never lets up. And, of course, at the end of the tape there’s a remix with Sexyy Red tacked on that I’ll probably never listen to again willingly. It gets in the way of the best thing Brooklyn drill has to offer right now: Kyle Richh, Jenn Carter, and TaTa just hot potatoing the mic around.

Golden Ring Tours

An opportunity to travel in time and experience the medieval towns of the Russian province

Home / Russia travel Destinations / Golden Ring Tours

Golden Ring Tours Immerse in Russian heritage, architectural masterpieces & stunning landscapes.

Golden ring tours overview.

Our Golden Ring Tours take place close to Russia's capital Moscow, yet seemingly a world away, adventuring to the beautifully preserved ancient cities of the Golden Ring route is a must. The cities of the Golden Ring are perfect destinations for travellers seeking the idyllic, provincial Mother Russia of old. A must short detour when Visiting Moscow. Scattered across a rural landscape of rolling hills, flower blanketed meadows, rivers and streams. The cities of the Golden Ring were considered political backwaters by the time Soviet industrialisation took hold, escaping much of the urban progress that rapidly engulfed Moscow and its surroundings. Consequently, many locals to the Golden Ring still lead a largely traditional existence, living in tight-knit communities where the ancestral izba (wooden farmhouse) is the centre of daily life.

 Golden Ring Russia, Travel Highlights:

• Regarded as open-air museums, be enthralled by many of the Golden Ring’s ancient settlements and architectural masterpieces . These include the UNESCO-listed monasteries and onion-dome cathedrals in Yaroslavl, the white stone monuments of Vladimir (the Golden Gates, the church of Boris and Gleb), and the medieval wooden houses and windmills in Suzdal.
• Our Golden Ring Tours facilitate immersion in the colourful culture of provincial Russia. Towns such as Ivanovo and Kostroma still maintain a largely traditional way of life. When you visit the Golden ring, be sure to try the delicious traditional Russian cuisine, admire time-honoured handicrafts and unearth ancient relics of the Soviet times.
• Discover the sacred places of the orthodox religion at their many cathedrals, churches and historical monuments like the Trinity Lavra of Saint Sergius, the Holy Assumption Cathedral and the Cathedral of Transformation.
• Uncover the age-old allure of Russia by delving into the rich history and legends of the Golden Ring. From Russian princes and knights to the early Tsars and Mongol invasions, you will experience something straight out of a fairytale.
• Admire the stunning natural landscapes of the Golden Ring dominated by rippling meadows, lush green forests and winding rivers used to link fortified towns in the middle ages.

Many Golden Ring cities date back to at least the 10th century, and played a vital role in Medieval history, associated with the formation of the Russian Orthodox Church, the reign of Tsars and the Mongol Invasions. When you go on a Golden Ring tour, you will notice that virtually every town is a living museum, made up of ancient forts, towering monasteries, imposing palaces and magnificent cathedrals. Recognised for their artistic merit as an important place in history, four sites on the Golden Ring circuit have gained UNESCO World Heritage Site status, including the 1,000-year-old city of Yaroslavl.

Best of Moscow by high speed train

By shuguley , February 15, 2014 in Regent Seven Seas Cruises

Recommended Posts

Sure would appreciate someone who has taken "Best of Moscow by high speed train" from St. Petersburg could please share their impressions of this shore excursion. From the description this sounds like a very long day.

Wondering how the 4 hour train trip was in terms of accommodations, etc. Also what time did you leave the ship and what time at night did you return? Were both legs of the trip on the high speed rail (I read that slower trains also travel the same tracks)?

My wife and I are considering this excursion. We thought that if we are making all the effort to go to Russia then how could we pass up going to Moscow, walking in Red Square, seeing St. Basil, etc.

If you are considering this on the 2015 June Baltic cruise on Voyager; my suggestion is don't. There is so much to do in St. Petersburg and although a train is one of my favorite ways to travel the time would be far better spent in St. P.

Thanks for the advice. Yes, this would be on the Voyager during the 2015 season but not yet sure exactly which cruise.

We did the Moscow excursion "on a different luxury line", but from your brief description it sounds very much like the same trip, so I will operate on that assumption. It is a VERY long day! We left the ship at 5:30 AM and returned at 12:30 AM. The highspeed train trip is comfortable, and while they call it "Business Class" it does not compare well to the equivalent class on say Rail Europe. When we did it in 2011, we did have highspeed both ways, and the trip back seemed much longer as the adrenaline and excitement had worn off!:D

Moscow itself is not that terribly different from any other big city in the world, but this Cold War kid never thought he would ever stand in Red Square, never mind walk the grounds of The Kremlin, or tour The Kremlin Palace, or see (but not visit) Lenin's Tomb, or visit The Armoury. But he did, and he loved every minute of it! Yes, it is a long day, and you barely scratch a scratch on the surface, but it is worth it. There is a tremendous amount to see in St. Petersburg, but every Baltic cruise goes to St. Petersburg, so you can go back if you choose to. Not every cruiseline offers you the chance to see Moscow.

I have not personally done this tour, but our last time in St Petersburg, the private guide that we hired for a day was leading the regent tour to Moscow on the high speed train the next day. He said it was way better than the previous alternative, which was flying to Moscow and back. He said that you actually got to Moscow faster because you didn't have to deal with airline checkin etc. it did seem like a very long day to me, and there is so much to see and do in st. Petersburg that I didn't consider doing it.

We toured to Moscow from St. Petersburg via the hi-speed SAPSAN train last September, from a Baltic cruise on the Oceania Marina. You need to have a two-night, three day port call in St. Petersburg to take this tour because the tour typically leaves the ship around 5:00 - 5:30 AM and doesn't return until after midnight the next day. We didn't take the ship's tour; we made private arrangements with TravelAllRussia for three days of touring, the first and third days in St. Petersburg and the second day the tour to Moscow by train. Our cost for the private tour for three days was about the same as what the ship charged for the excursion to Moscow alone. There are a number of private tour agencies that operate in St. Petersburg and offer the Moscow train tours; we would strongly recommend them over the ship's tours.

All three days had private guides with car and driver. The second day, the driver picked us up at the ship and took us to the train, but we were alone on the train, and met in Moscow by the guide on the station platform. After our tour and dinner, we were brought back to the train and after the return train trip met by the driver and taken back to the ship. Because you are alone on the train you must have your own Russian visas.

If this is your first visit to St. Petersburg, I would agree there is much more to see there. We found Moscow somewhat a disappointment, particularly Red Square. The Kremlin and the cathedral in Red Square were also worth seeing. But the best thing we saw was the Moscow subway! I worked for the Washington Metro system back in the 1980s as it grew from 40 to 80 miles and although I was in the computer area, I learned a lot about the challenges of running a subway system. We used the Moscow system to get across the city from where we had dinner to the train station, and I was amazed at the cleanliness', speed of operation, the short headways maintained, and the courtesy of everyone involved. A very impressive experience!

We had been to St. Petersburg before, and so had the time to take a day and go to Moscow. Also, I really like trains, and the SAPSAN is a German train set running on Russian rails. Seats are like first class domestic air, spacious but not too plush or comfortable, but with enough room. Not too much recline, and almost 8 hours on the train in two shots is a lot for an old man. They come through and sell drinks, candy, etc. but the sellers don't speak English and no one around us helped, so we had just poor coffee once coming, and brought stuff with us for the trip back. Not too much to see from the train either, particularly on the return when it is night the whole way.

If you decide to go, take a private tour and avoid the overly expensive ship's tour. I'm glad we did it, but wouldn't bother to repeat the tour; we've seen Moscow.

Thanks so much to all of you for the thorough and thought insight. Yhe information you have provided is most helpful.

countflorida: Your detailed post is very helpful. We are not quite ready for a Baltic cruise but should do so within a year. Time enough to do our pre travel research, bookings and visa gathering.:) Thank you!

Sure would appreciate someone who has taken "Best of Moscow by high speed train" from St. Petersburg could please share their impressions of this shore excursion. From the description this sounds like a very long day.   Wondering how the 4 hour train trip was in terms of accommodations, etc. Also what time did you leave the ship and what time at night did you return? Were both legs of the trip on the high speed rail (I read that slower trains also travel the same tracks)?   My wife and I are considering this excursion. We thought that if we are making all the effort to go to Russia then how could we pass up going to Moscow, walking in Red Square, seeing St. Basil, etc.

I did this on Seabourn. IMO DONT. Take Aeroflop (er Aeroflot). The train has non folding seats where you are literally knee to knee with your fellow passenger (facing each other). Further they don't believe in air conditioning. It's also the worlds slowed bullet train. I think I would have found more enjoyment wandering around the St. Petersburg and Moscow airports.

Countflorida,

This is a little off topic,, however we had planned a river cruise in Russia but decided we would rather stay on land and have booked about two weeks with Travel-All-Russia using the private guide and driver. I'm curious as to how you found them as a tour company.

The guides they provided were fine. We had a different guide each of the days in St. Petersburg, but both were flexible, pleasant, knowledgeable and spoke English very well, as did the guide in Moscow, incidentally. She was a bit aloof, distant, not too friendly, but otherwise fine. In fact, she was the one who suggested taking the Metro, which unexpectedly became one of the highlights of the Moscow excursion. If I have a complaint with AllTravelRussia, it is with their plan and its execution (more later).

I had requested emphasis on World War II (in Russia, the Great Patriotic War) sites and info. In scheduling us, they weren't careful about dates and a couple of the sites we wanted to see were scheduled on the third day, after we'd been to Moscow. But both sites were closed that day of the week, and that info was readily available, right on web sites describing them. Also, the included meals (lunches in St. Pete, dinner in Moscow) were not what we asked for: light meals with some choices, so we could avoid things we didn't like and choose things we did like. My request was ignored; we were given full Russian meals with a fixed menu, no choice. On the first day, a fish dish was the entre, but I am allergic to fish. Fortunately, I had the e-mail I'd sent with me and showed it to the guide, and she was able to change my entre to chicken, which was very good actually. But we didn't want a 3-4 course lunches or dinner (in Moscow). We had the guide drop the lunch the third day, although we never got any credit or refund. But, particularly in contrast to the ship's tours, the prices were so reasonable we didn't worry too much about it.

The people who were on the ship's tour to Moscow saw us boarding the same train for which they were forced to queue up and wait on the way back, and asked us what we had done. I was candid and open so they were not happy when I explained what we had arranged and particularly what it had cost. Also, when we returned to the ship, we found they had laid on a late supper for those who had gone to Moscow, so up we went and had something. Well, it turns out the late supper was supposed to be just for those on the ship's tour, but we and others on 'independent' tours, there were a dozen or more of us, crashed the party, actually got there first, and they didn't realize it until the larger group arrived and there weren't enough tables/places set. By that time, the 'independents' had all gotten served and were eating; what could they do?

A couple from the larger group sat down with us and asked us about our tour, and they were the ones I told about our arrangement and its cost. They turned to others who’d been with them and announced the details, loudly enough so the whole room heard, which started a lot of bitching and complaining. I gathered they weren't very happy with the ship's tour to begin with, and this was the straw that broke the camel's back. We finished up and beat it out of there, but overheard later that one of the excursion staff came to check on something and ran into a real mess. I caught a cold on the trip, which forced me to bed the second day following in Tallinn, so by the time we reappeared we heard about the contretemps' but apparently no one recalled who started it, thankfully.

Because of what happened to us, I would probably not use AllTravelRussia if I were to go again, or if I did, I would be sure to get confirmation of every detail of the tour. They do have good reviews generally, and we were certainly helped by their visa department and liked the guides and drivers. Their weakness, I say now with full 20:20 hindsight, is that once the sales person who plans the tour, sells it to you and collects your money, he (or she) transfers the plan to their Russia office for implementation; there is no follow-up to make sure it gets done right. And that is where our problems arose; we paid for a custom tour but got a standard package with a few destinations switched, and no one checked them out, even to see when they were open the day we were scheduled to go. If you check every detail that’s important to you, it should be OK, but that’s a hell of a way to have to do business, in my opinion.

Thank you for the 20/20 hindsight observation on your Russian tour operator, and better priced than the ship's excursion cost.

Thanks very much for the feedback.

We had the same experience as you so far as price. We originally booked a Viking Cruise but, hearing some things about the river cruises that made us unhappy, looked into other options. T-A-R cost the same or less than a cruise and had us in hotels for 11 days. We opted for the private tour. They have three tour levels, based on hotels. We originally opted for the four star as it did not cost much more than the three star hotels. Finally we decided to throw it all in and upgraded to five star. In Moscow we will be at the newly opened Kempinsky which is two blocks from Red Square. In St. Petersburg it is the Grand Hotel Europe, one of the most vaunted luxury hotels in Russia. Location is important for us as the tours use up only part of the day so being in the center of everything for our independent touring is important. As with many other cities, the less you pay, the farther out of the center of town you are.

We have been working with our salesman in D.C. and he seems to get back to us with the changes we want. He recently returned from Russia so is up on everything. When I asked they said they paid the full TA commission if I wanted so I got my usual TA on board so he is watching our back and giving us that extra level of comfort. He also set up our air, which I know pays him little or nothing, and got us business class for much less than T-A-R wanted for economy, though it took working for a while with a consolidator. He's happy to get his 10 percent on this trip without having booked it. He also took care of the trip insurance. We've been doing a lot of research on the CC sister site Trip Advisor and will write a report there. We will, I guess, become a source of info for CC members after having spent 5 days in Moscow and 6 in SP.
