Rowdy Rebel And A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s ‘9 Bridge’ Video Is Adventurous Ride

Rowdy Rebel and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie‘s “9 Bridge” saw the two New York natives form a strong cross-borough connection and that connection is deepened in their video for the song, which they shared today. Opening with a closeup of a sword in a stone in the middle of a Manhattan street, the video finds A Boogie claiming the sword before being beset by a sneaky attacker. Fortunately Rowdy is right there with a crossbow to get his rhyme partner’s back.

Elsewhere in the video the duo pilots a submarine, challenges the devil to a game of chess, and plays cliffhanger off the roof of a skyscraper in a cyberpunk cityscape.

While neither rapper has released much solo music this year, they’ve both been fairly prolific on the features front. Rowdy, fresh off a six-year prison stint, has been in high demand, appearing with Nav in the “Jesse Owens” video and CJ in the “Whoopty NYC Remix” video. Meanwhile, A Boogie popped up on a remix of TikTok star Mooski’s “Track Star” and put out a new single featuring Lil Durk, “24 Hours.”

A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie And Lil Durk Beg To See Their Lovers For ’24 Hours’

A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie is known for his ability to deliver tracks that are perfect for the club as well as efforts that are softer and a bit more intimate. Thanks to some help from Lil Durk, A Boogie arrives with another example of the latter with his new track, “24 Hours.” The melodic effort finds the two rappers pleading to see their lovers for 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The brief moments they normally share together are not enough to satisfy their cravings as their constant presence is the only thing that will keep the pair happy.

The new song is the latest in a string of releases from A Boogie after he stayed fairly quiet following the release of his last album, Artist 2.0 in 2020. Last week he teamed up with Rowdy Rebel for a cross-borough connection on their “9 Bridge” collaboration. In addition that, he also remixed Mooski’s viral track, “Track Star,” for fans to enjoy. As for Lil Durk, the Chicago rapper is readying Voice Of The Heroes, his joint project with Lil Baby, for a release in the coming weeks.

While it’s been a while since the two rappers last collaborated, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie And Lil Durk could both be found on DJ Khaled’s latest album, Khaled Khaled. The former appeared on “This Is My Year” with Big Sean, Puff Daddy, and Rick Ross while the latter starred with Lil Baby on “Every Chance I Get.”

You can press play on “24 Hours” in the video above.

Rowdy Rebel And A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s ‘9 Bridge’ Is A Cross-Borough Connection

Brooklyn rapper Rowdy Rebel links up with the Bronx’s own A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie on “9 Bridge,” a haunting banger of a cross-borough connection. A Boogie kicks things off with a rapid-fire verse before Rowdy comes in for a few bars of his own before giving it back to A Boogie for a melodic flow. They go back and forth a few times, showcasing the sort of two-man game that ’90s NBA highlight reels were made of.

The new single is a nice departure for Rowdy, who’s been embracing the drill wave ever since making it out of prison earlier this year. At the end of the GS9 rapper’s six-year sentence, he was recruited by Funkmaster Flex and Nav for “Jesse Owens,” then by CJ for the NYC Remix of “Whoopty” with French Montana. “9 Bridge” gives him a shot to show off his versatility as he continues on the comeback trail.

Meanwhile, A Boogie uses the song reset his 2021 after a few stumbling blocks in 2020 and his remix of Mooski’s TikTok hit “Track Star.” Hopefully, this refresh will lead to more new music with the same level of renewed energy — or even a joint album, because the give-and-go flows here are *chef’s kiss*.

A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie Lends Star Power To Mooski’s ‘Track Star Remix’

In recent months, it appears that many hip-hop artists have circled back around to a tried-and-true promotion tactic while live touring is still mostly shut down: Remixing other artist’s hits. We’ve seen several artists take on SpotemGottem’s viral hit “BeatBox” and Coi Leray’s “No More Parties.” Now, it looks like we can add Mooski’s “Track Star” to the list of coveted tracks for bigger stars to cover, as A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie puts his own spin on the TikTok favorite.

The Woodpecker-produced, dancehall-influenced beat remains unchanged, and A Boogie lets the now-familiar hook play out before coming in with his revamped verse, flexing his way through a melodic rap with a number of vocal effects applied throughout.

A Boogie’s had a relatively quiet year so far, although this weekend has seemingly cracked the seal on new music from the Bronx native. In addition to dropping his remix of “Track Star,” he also appears on DJ Khaled’s new album, Khaled Khaled, rhyming alongside Big Sean, Puff Daddy, and Rick Ross on “This Is My Year.”
