French Montana And Lil Tjay Secure The Bags In The New Video For ‘Bag Season’
Last Friday, French Montana released his fourth full-length album, They Got Amnesia. The Bronx rapper’s follow-up to 2019’s Montana clocks in with 20 tracks, and even though he’s had to publicly defend himself against Twitter trolls who say he has too many features on his songs, just half of the album’s cuts are collabs with the likes of Drake, John Legend, Rick Ross, Fabolous, and Doja Cat and Saweetie.
As for the album’s accompanying videos, Montana is really be leaning into the heist narrative. On the “Panicking” clip, he and Fivio Foreign infiltrate an airplane to swoop in a pallet of cash, and now on the new visual for “Bag Season,” he and Lil Tjay mastermind a smash and grab plot to secure rare bags. They crash through a window and Montana moves stealthily through a club with his crew wearing eerie masks of nuns with blood running down their eyes. Lil Tjay is the point man behind the scenes as the pair course through the banger track in the process. The shifting lights in the club are reminiscent of the iconic nightclub robbery scene in Hype Williams’ Belly, and it shows the ever-present influence of the DMX- and Nas-starring film in hip-hop culture more than 20 years after it’s release.
They Got Amnesia is out now via Epic Records. Get it here.

Lil Tjay Sticks To The Script On ‘Not In The Mood’ With Fivio Foreign And Kay Flock
The grind never stops for Lil Tjay. The New York rapper is just a few months removed from sharing his second album, Destined 2 Win, with the world. The project debuted at No. 5 on the album charts, which tied a personal record for the highest position. Destined 2 Win also gave him his highest-charting song thanks to “Calling My Phone” with 6lack. After basking in the success of the album for some time, Lil Tjay is back in action with new music and it comes in the form of his new single “Not In The Mood” featuring Fivio Foreign and Kay Flock.
The new track finds the trio of rappers pushing as hard as they can to overcome life’s obstacles. “I almost gave up every other day / We made a way,” Tjay raps on the song. “We never relate, it’s big food for the plate / It’s time to go drill, I never do dates.” The tunnel-visioned approach to consistent success is emulated by Fivio Foreign and Kay Flock, who provide verses of their own on “Not In The Mood.”
Lil Tjay drops off the new song after teaming up with Joyner Lucas for a raunchy video to their collaboration, “Untold Stories.” Prior to that, he teamed with Bas and J. Cole for “The Jackie” and appeared on G Herbo’s fourth album, 25, on a track titled “Cry No More” that also featured Polo G.
