Few records dominated playlists, mixes and aux cords quiet like “F.N.F” by GloRilla. In the months following the record’s release, the Memphis native signed with Yo Gotti’s CMG, performed at the 2022 BET Hip-Hop Awards and collaborated with Cardi B. While GloRilla continues to make her way through the recording industry, the man behind the boards on her breakout hit, Hitkidd, continues to cook up records that people can’t stop playing.
Hitkidd may have another hit on his hands. Less than two weeks after its release, Hitkidd’s “Shabooya” video has topped the one million mark on YouTube. Led by emerging artists Aleza, Gloss Up, Slimeroni and K Carbon, the visual takes it all back to high school as each artist takes their turn delivering their best bars in a roll call style.
“Look, ayy, I’m Aleza , I’m smokin’ reefer/That ain’t your n*gga, he ain’t no keeper, he an eater/And I’m a stoner, popular loner/Fat blunts, White Runtz, that’s my persona,” Aleza raps.
“I’m Slimeroni, the one and only/You might’ve seen me, but you don’t know me/Pay me attention, ’cause I’m expensive/Sh*t on h*es, I don’t care if it’s offensive,” Slimeroni adds.
From the work of Brian Brown out in Nashville to Isaiah Rashad out in Chattanooga to GloRilla in Memphis, there is something special going on in Tennessee. Check out Hitkidd’s “Shabooya” video led by Aleza, Gloss Up, Slimeroni and K Carbon below.
