Grammy nominated producer Murda Beatz has officially kicked off his 2026 campaign with the release of “By My Side,” a collaborative masterpiece that bridges the gap between Florida’s underground and New York’s melodic drill scene. Released on February 11, 2026, the track features Loe Shimmy and Cash Cobain, two of the most influential voices currently reshaping the genre’s texture. Murda, alongside co-producers G40, Oscar Familia, Keymajor, and Puku, provides an atmospheric, “underwater” soundscape that feels both haunting and luxurious.
On “By My Side,” Loe Shimmy delivers his signature raspy, effortless flow, trading bars about loyalty and the high stakes of the lifestyle with Cash Cobain. Cobain, fresh off a dominant 2025, brings his distinct “sexy drill” energy to the record, creating a contrast that feels like a natural evolution for the Murda Beatz Recordings label. The track arrived with a cinematic music video that premiered on February 12, further cementing its status as a standout selection for New Music Friday. With Murda also recently spotted in the studio with Drake for the ICEMAN sessions, “By My Side” serves as a potent reminder that the Canadian producer is still the ultimate curator for hip hop’s next big moment.
