Gillie Da King and Wallo might have a Million Dollaz Worth Of Game, but 21 Savage has them beat. Stopping by the Barstool duo’s podcast to talk everything from Clubhouse beef and the passing of his brother to participating in Amber Rose’s Slutwalk, to the subject of owning his own masters. Though he’s been more focused of late on charity events like his annual Issa Back 2 School Drive, but he took the time to talk industry knowledge for the show.
“I had a platinum album before I signed my [first] deal,” 21 explained to the show’s hosts. “I own my masters right now. Every song you’ve ever I heard, I own it. I got a 70/30 split with my label. I make more money off my album sales than I do off touring. For a lot of rappers, most of their money comes from touring.” For those who aren’t as familiar with the standard record label agreement, this arrangement is incredibly rare. It’s also a big deal for artists, on an emotional level — check Taylor Swift’s re-recording campaign after she was refused the right to buy her own masters for proof.
Sitting with fellow Atlanta rapper Young Nudy for the entirety of the show, 21 holds his own for almost 90 minutes… to the point that some fans have to be wondering if he’ll start a new hustle hosting a hip-hop show. His penchant for lengthy, interesting interviews is setting a new industry standard. Check out the full show above.

Today is Young Thug‘s 30th birthday and he’s been enjoying accolades and acknowledgments from peers like Drake, Meek Mill, and more. One well-wisher was 21 Savage, who attended a private event to celebrate the occasion last night and added a little trolling to his birthday wishes, pointing his phone camera across a table at Thugger, and saying, “Look at the birthday girl.” Thug playfully snatches the phone from Savage, but given the video was eventually updated to the latter’s Instagram Story, it seems they were merely joking around rather than Thugger taking any offense.
Other well-wishers for Thugger’s birthday included Lil Yachty, who posted a photo of the two together with a heartfelt caption, Thug’s YSL artists Gunna and Lil Keed, and of course, legions of Thug’s fans.
Thugger’s 30th year looks like it will include his second studio album, Punk, after he teased a potential release date in autumn during his NPR Tiny Desk debut in which he played songs from the upcoming album alongside Travis Barker, hip-hop’s favorite rocker. In the meantime, he continues to enjoy being one of rap’s most in-demand feature artists, contributing to releases from Belly (“Better Believe“), Cordae (“Wassup“), and IDK (“Pradadabang“).
Check out some of the well-wishes from Young Thug’s friends above.
