Although Future ended up in the fifth position on 21 Savage’s list, he stated that the “Mask Off” artist would rank first if it focused on songwriting.
21 Savage was assigned the job of ranking the finest lyricists from Atlanta, and naturally, he ranked himself in the top position. During the airing of “DeepCut with VicBlends” on Thursday (Dec. 19) evening, the “Bank Account” artist was presented with a selection of Hip Hop giants to choose: Young Thug, Lil Baby, JID, and Future.
“I’m the best,” he proclaimed. 21 Savage subsequently mentioned Dreamville Records’ JID, with whom he worked on the TikTok-viral track “Surround Sound” in 2022. Subsequently, the Savage Mode artist placed frequent collaborator Young Thug at No. 3, with Lil Baby and Future completing the list.
Nonetheless, 21 Savage claims, “If it’s not related to song-making, Pluto would be ranked first.” Watch the complete video below.
Although the lyrical abilities of 21 Savage may be questionable, his statistics speak for themselves. January’s American Dream launched at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The collection of 15 tracks includes songs such as “n.h.i.e.” featuring Doja Cat, “redrum,” and the collaboration with Travis Scott and Metro Boomin titled “née-nah.” Other guest appearances featured Young Thug, Lil Durk, Summer Walker, and Burna Boy, among several others.
The rapper, originally from London, then embarked on “The American Dream Tour” to promote the project. Supporting him were 21 Lil Harold, Nardo Wick, and JID, and the tour concluded in June.
In a previous discussion with VicBlends, 21 Savage reminisced about the initial success of “Red Opps” and his ability to remain relevant ever since. “Continue to lower it, but not excessively,” he clarified. “Simply continue to expand on the momentum, as you wouldn’t want it to fade away…” The year when I released the highest amount of music in my career was at the start. Significantly, 2015 marked the debut of The Slaughter Tape, Free Guwop, and Slaughter King.
