Metro Boomin Blames Hacker For “All Those Corny Tweets,” And Fans Aren’t Buying It

by

Metro Boomin has been extremely active on social media these past few weeks. Furthermore, he has taken some slick shots at Drake before deleting his tweets. This has led to some clap backs from Drizzy himself, and fans are curious as to how this all originated. Additionally, with the track “Like That” on Metro and Future’s album We Don’t Trust You, it is clear that the Drake feud is very much alive and well. Kendrick Lamar is on the song, and again, he delivered an outstanding verse. However, fans remain confused as to how this all began.

On Tuesday, Metro Boomin took to Twitter where he revealed that his phone number and social media accounts were hacked. Moreover, there was seemingly a connection to Drake here as he revealed that a Toronto phone number has been calling his phone incessantly. In the tweet below, Metro blames anything corny that he may have tweeted, on the hackers themselves. “Jus got my phone # and accounts back today somebody hacked me the day the album dropped smh and all those corny ass tweets all my day 1s know that’s nowhere in my character,” he wrote.

Metro Boomin Explains What Happened

As you can see in the quote tweets down below, no one actually believes Metro was hacked. Or if he was, indeed, hacked, the hacker had nothing to do with his Twitter habits specifically. In fact, there are some people who are trying to say that Metro is going out sad right now. After all, “Like That” is the number one song in the country right now, and that should probably be enough. We’ll probably never know if a hacker was truly responsible for his tweets. But if he is telling the truth, then the timing is quite curious.

Trippie Redd Says Hacker Held Music For $1 Million Ransom

by

It’s an unfortunate reality for artists that, at some point in their careers, they will face a hacker in one way or another. We’ve watched artists face setbacks following song or album leaks, and others endure having their social media pages taken over by nefarious strangers. Trippie Redd fell victim to a hacker, and he explained to Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1 how that impacted the release of his latest album, Mansion Musik.

A standout track on the project was Trippie’s “KRZY TRAIN” collaboration with Travis Scott. While the pairing was anticipated, some listeners noticed that elements of the song seemed unfinished. “I ain’t really speak on it, but I’m going to speak on it. I was held for ransom on my project,” said the rapper.

Trippie said his hackers demanded $1 million “because they had all my records. Every single last one. All the features.” He felt the need to “rush the project out,” which is why the Travis Scott collab is noticeably different. “That’s what Travis sent to me, I didn’t mix it,” Trippie admitted.

“I had to run with it because if I didn’t, the whole project was going to release,” he continued. “And this has been a big thing. They have been hacking and leaking sh*t like crazy, at least my last two, three albums. I don’t know how they do it. Pegasus, it probably leaked two months before it dropped, bro, and it still did extremely well.”

“I was like, ‘If I don’t drop it now, then it’s going to be out there, and they’re going to hear it regardless. They’re going to hear the bad mix regardless, so I’m going to put it out unmixed and see what they think,” Trippie also shared. “Yeah, the album did leak, actually, two. I work through anything. God got the last laugh, you feel me? Like the devil going to throw so much at you, you can’t really let it bother you. Just take the bruises, you’ll heal eventually.”
