21 Savage Wants His Body Frozen Until 2121

by

21 Savage seemingly wants to test the waters of cryopreservation in hopes of still being alive in 98 years.

While everyone rang in 2023 on Saturday night, it appears that 21 Savage was pondering about how to remain alive until the year 2121. The rapper took to Twitter on New Year’s Eve, hours before the clock struck midnight, to express his desire to experiment with cryopreservation.

“I Just Want To Be Alive For 2121 Somebody Freeze Me Right Quick,” he wrote.

Now, it’s unlikely that 21 is actually willing to freeze his body with hopes of being resurrected in the future. However, there are many scientists hoping that this could become a reality in the future.

Cryonic preservation is the process of freezing corpses at very low temperatures. Cryonicists hope that scientific advancements could repair dead bodies. Walt Disney became attached to rumors that he underwent this process.

If 21 Savage were to survive another 98 years to see 2121, he would be 129 years old.

In related news, the rapper’s coming off of an excellent year that found him collaborating with two legends. In November, he teamed up with Drake for their joint project, Her Loss. The two revealed plans to tour together in support of the album, which followed Drake’s Certified Lover Boy and his foray into dance, Honestly, Nevermind. The project extended the pair’s track record together, which includes records like “Jimmy Cooks” and “Knife Talk.”

21 also collaborated with Nas following a brief controversy where the Atlanta rapper called the God’s Son MC irrelevant. The Hit-Boy produced, “One Mic One Gun” arrived a week after 21’s comments.

We’re excited for what 21 Savage has in store in 2023. It’s been nearly five years since he released his last solo album, i am > i was, though he’s dished a few collab efforts since.

21 Savage performed at RED Studios in Hollywood for the season finale of Amazon Music Live Concert Series, hosted by 2 Chainz. Savage kicked up the event with his smash track “Jimmy Cooks,” which debuted at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. He also played “X,” “rockstar,” “Bank Account,” “Ball w/o you,” and “Rich Flex” from his latest joint album with Drake Her Loss. The album began with sixteen tracks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and went on to have the biggest week for an R&B/hip-hop collection of the year and the fourth-largest streaming week for any album.

This event follows Savage’s recognition by the state of Georgia as an exceptional citizen for his ongoing philanthropic activities in the community and nationally with his ‘bank account’ financial literacy initiative. Savage was recognized with a proclamation declaring December 21st (12/21) as “21 Savage Day” across the state of Georgia, presented by State Representative Billy Mitchell (District 88). This year, 21 Savage and his Leading by Example Foundation sponsored their 4th annual Holiday Grant-A-Wish Event, inviting 100 Atlanta parents and children to the Wade Walker Park Family YMCA for an evening packed with gifts like as Moolah wifi free iPads, Christmas goodies, and holiday cheer.

“Her Loss” Surpasses One Billion Streams On Spotify

by

It seems as though Drake breaks records after every new release. The world is continuing to stream his latest offering, last month’s 21 Savage-assisted album, Her Loss.

As a result, the project has just recently hit a milestone mark.

On Monday (December 26), Spotify announced that the 16-track album has officially reached one billion streams and counting. Of course, this is just on their streaming platform and doesn’t count the plays from elsewhere.

Along with the astronomical number of streams, Drizzy simultaneously breaks another record. He becomes the artist with the most albums with over one billion streams to their name, as Her Loss marks his twelfth to do so. His first album of 2022, Honestly, Nevermind, cracked the milestone earlier this year.

The project unsurprisingly debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard chart, selling 411,000 units in its first week.

In other news surrounding the 6 God, he’s certainly been attending his fair share of Toronto Raptors games this year. As the team’s global ambassador, the 36-year-old is often spotted court-side at Scotiabank Arena in his signature seat. More times than not, he brings along his 5-year-old son, Adonis.

Just last night, the father and son duo were seen taking in some basketball action as the Raptors faced off against the Los Angeles Clippers. After the game, the Clippers posted a clip of Drizzy dapping up former Raptors Normal Powell and Kawhi Leonard. “Kawhi and Norm with a fan,” the franchise wrote in the Instagram caption.

Evidently, Champagne Papi didn’t the Clippers calling him a fan. “Win a ring,” he subsequently fired back in the comments.

Drake and 21 Savage’s ‘Her Loss’ Reaches 1 Billion Streams On Spotify In Less Than Two Months

While Drake and 21’s Savage’s Her Loss has had its fair share of controversy, most notably because of its lyrical content and the significant delays that affected its initial October release date, it hasn’t stopped the listeners from rolling in. The duo’s recent project set a new record, earning nearly 1 billion streams on Spotify in less than two months, a new record for both rappers. The album debuted at No.1 on Billboard after being released on November 4.

The project has allowed 21 Savage to earn his first billion streams on the platform and Drake his 12th. Her Loss was a commercial success, debuting at No.1 on Billboard 200 and dethroning Taylor Swift’s Midnights, selling over 400k in its first week, making it the third-highest opening this year in music. But the achievements don’t end there — the album garnered Drake his 12th No.1 album and 21 his third.

During a November interview with SiriusXM Sound 42 last month, Drake proclaimed that Her Loss is one of the “greatest albums” he’s ever made and might even crack the Top 3 in his decorated catalog. “[Her Loss] is one of the greatest albums I ever made in my life,” he declared. “I said the other day, I think this is a clear entry into my Top 5 of my catalog — if not, Top 3.”

Additionally, the Canadian rapper has shared that this project is a part of a trilogy — Certified Lover Boy, Honestly, Nevermind, and now Her Loss — which centers on the pitfalls of love and relationships and the disillusionment that comes with it.

Bad Bunny Reacted To Drake’s Flattering Name-Check Of Him On ‘Major Distribution’ And Drake Loved It

Drake and 21 Savage’s Her Loss is full of disses and shout-outs. One of the latter is praise for Bad Bunny, who was No. 1 on the year-end Top Tours chart, Apple Music’s Artist Of The Year, and his album Un Verano Sin Ti was No. 1 on the Billboard 200 Albums year-end chart. Drake took some time on “Major Distribution” to commend these achievements.

On the song, he raps, “Major distribution / Labels call me Bad Bunny numbers / It’s a robbery / 500 million, just for Aubrey.” Bad Bunny appreciated the compliment — he posted a video yesterday, December 21, of him bobbing his head to the rhythm of the track and even picking up a weight and lifting it. It’s safe to say he liked the excuse to flex.

Drake shared the clip on his own account, writing: “You know who’s really running up the money. it’s me and the [rabbit emoji].”

The Honestly, Nevermind performer also recently responded to often being turned into a meme, like with the “Rich Flex” meme. “I understand after all these years that, I feel like I have a polarizing presence,” he said. “I’m almost a character in people’s movies and therefore there’s a running a dialogue. There’s jokes, you’re either the villain to some people or hero to some people. It is what it is, it just comes with the territory… I’ve always been able to laugh at myself, but I really do feel now that I mentally am able to separate the two. So I just want to stay in that zone, that’s kinda my resolution.”

Drake Calls SZA’s ‘SOS’ “Incredible,” Says “Her Loss” Took 4 Months To Create

by

SZA’s sophomore effort continues to be the talk of the town and even Drake can’t help but praise the record. After years of fans pleading in her comment sections, SZA dropped off SOS. It was a labor of love that took some time for the world to receive, and now that it’s here, the Top Dawg Entertainment artist’s growth is audible. Her fusion of several genres is done in a way only SZA can deliver. As SOS sits comfortably at No. 1 on the charts, a clip from Drake’s recent interview commanded attention.

Drizzy has been making moves—and money—with Stake, the crypto casino and sports betting platform. In an interview with Stake, Drake called SZA’s SOS “incredible” amid chatter that he was supposed to make an appearance on the record.

SZA recently said in an interview that she reached out to several of her peers, but sadly, they didn’t respond to her requests. She added she wasn’t upset about it because she’d done the same to many of them in the past.

Elsewhere in Drake’s discussion with Stake, he spoke about the length of time it takes for him to create an album. Apparently, his joint project with 21 Savage, Her Loss, took four months to complete.

“Yeah, that was quick. It’s quick. Like, I’ve obviously had albums that take a year,” said Drake. “I’ve had albums that take two years. And then, I have an album, If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late. I think we made that in like, six weeks. Eight weeks. What a Time to Be Alive, another album that we made fast.”

It has been a busy year for Aubrey Graham as he’s released not one but two projects. His surprise Honestly, Nevermind album received mixed reviews from fans as Drake tapped into dance and house music. Nevertheless, it was yet another chart-topping hit for the OVO icon.

Pusha T Says He Heard Drake’s Subliminal Disses but He’s ‘Not Interested Anymore’

Pusha-T Claims 'They Won't Publish' a Children's Book He's Been Trying To Write For Years

Drake has been continuously sliding bars toward Pusha T.

On Her Loss, the boy hit “On BS” and dropped off a set of bars directed toward King Push after he once suggested issues with doing shows in Canada.

“You ain’t banned from ’round here, n-gga, come get off your show/Savage said you pussy and he hit it on the nose/But that border opеn, why you actin’ like it’s closed?”

– Drake on “On BS”

While helping out Jack Harlow on “Churchill Downs,” many believed bars about “plug talk coming from middlemen” and Drake’s “urges for revenge are uncontrollable” are also directed at Pusha T.

Well, what does Pusha T think about these jabs throughout 2022? He’s unbothered. Speaking with C. Vernon Coleman II for XXL, King Push says he knows he made an impact.

“Every time I hear a subliminal in one of his songs, it just lets me know how deep it hurt him,” Pusha T said. “Because it’s been four years now. And we still talking about it. He is. I don’t. I’m cool. But every time it’s a subliminal, I’m like, Yes. It burns. It still burns. It lets me know. I love it.”

Despite Drake’s best effort to bait Pusha, the Virginia rapper sums it up like this: “I’m not interested anymore.”

Drake Thinks Those ‘Sassy Drake’ ‘Rich Flex’ Memes Are Pretty Funny Too

One of the reasons Drake has had such longevity in pop culture is his self-awareness. Although he’s been the butt of plenty of jokes over the years, he’s never let it get to him. In fact, he’s embraced many of the memes, doubling down and even creating business opportunities out of them.

Most recently, his sassy intro on the Her Loss song “Rich Flex” in which he implores his rhyme partner 21 Savage to “do something for me” inspired a slew of cheeky memes on TikTok. In them, fans imagine the Canadian superstar rolling his neck, putting his hands on his hips, and generally using body language that matches his saucy tone. While 21 himself was floored by the memes during a recent interaction with Twitch streamer Kai Cenat, Drake got to share his own reaction during a live stream with betting app Stake (which he helped promote over the weekend by putting a million-dollar parlay on the World Cup — he lost, but Argentina won).

He said that during a recent club outing, a female companion questioned him about being the butt of so many memes. In response, he explained, “I understand after all these years that, I feel like I have a polarizing presence. I’m almost a character in people’s movies and therefore there’s a running a dialogue. There’s jokes, you’re either the villain to some people or hero to some people. It is what it is, it just comes with the territory… I’ve always been able to laugh at myself, but I really do feel now that I mentally am able to separate the two. So I just want to stay in that zone, that’s kinda my resolution.”

Drake Off-Handedly Confirmed He’s Planning To Go On Tour In 2023

Alex Moss recently revealed his “Previous Engagements” piece for Drake, a 351.38-carat diamond necklace comprised of 42 engagement rings and representing “all the times he thought about it but never did it.” Well, Drake has at least committed to one thing for 2023. It appears that RIAA’s newly crowned highest-selling singles artist was semi-serious during his faux Her Loss promotion cycle with 21 Savage — or, at least about touring.

Drake was smoking hookah and relaxing by the pool during a livestream for Stake over the weekend when he was asked what he’s looking most forward to about next year. “Tour,” he said. “Ah, man, I can’t wait to see people.” He briefly reflected in disbelief that his last tour, Aubrey And The Three Migos, was all the way back in 2018. “And you know, it’s so unfortunate — the other day, I was rehearsing. I rehearsed a bunch of days, and one of the shows had gotten pushed back,” he continued. “But yeah, man, I’m just looking forward to going. It’s one thing to make the music, but to see it is the most gratifying feeling.”

It’s unclear precisely which postponed show Drake was describing, but earlier this month, his debut Apollo Theater show was pushed to January due to “production delays.”

Since 2018’s Scorpion, Drake has dropped three more No. 1 albums — 2021’s Certified Lover Boy; July’s Honestly, Nevermind; and last month’s Her Loss joint effort with 21 Savage — plus his Dark Lane Demo Tapes in 2020 and the three-song Scary Hours 2 in March 2021.

During Drake’s aforementioned fake media blitz with Savage around the release of Her Loss, he staged a spoof Howard Stern interview that teased a 2023 show in Savage’s native London. “A lot of people are like, ‘Yo, you’re like the pride of London,’” Drake said to Savage then. “That’s why that London, that O2 night, like, that has to happen. That’s gonna be some different — that’s like some real homecoming sh*t. I’m excited for that.”

In October, Drake performed in Atlanta for the first time since 2018 when he surprisingly joined 21 Savage’s set at the Morehouse-Spelman homecoming concert.
