A few days ago, Kai Cenat became the No. 1 bestie of Drake and Lil Yachty fans when he leaked a collaborative song (known as “Supersoak” or “SOD”) by the two rappers on his stream. It turns out the leak was Yachty’s way of getting the song out into the world, as he just revealed he won’t be able to give it an official release.

On an episode of Andrew Schulz’s Flagrant podcast, Yachty explained, “I sent a song to Kai to leak. We couldn’t get the sample cleared, so I just let Kai play it.” Schulz then asked if the song is coming out officially and Yachty responded, “No. But it’s everywhere.

Schulz then wondered about the sample-clearing process and Yachty explained about this specific case, “This wasn’t an artist, this was an Instagram, social media influencer. […] He went down, like, a Christian path.” Yachty noted that the negotiations didn’t even get to the point where money was discussed, as the person was just straight-up not interested in clearing the sample for the track at all.

Yachty was apparently implying the influencer wasn’t pleased with the song’s lyrical content: Per Genius, the song features lines like, “She was a hoe, but I ain’t gon’ judgе, ’cause that was way before,” and, “WhatsApp attachment, first time I seen you naked.” Genius credits the song’s sample to @mr_hotspot.

Lil Yachty Claims Drake Leak “Supersoak” Will Never Get An Official Release

Lil Yachty had a lot to say on the Flagrant podcast. The rapper has developed a reputation for being Drake’s best friend in the music industry, so naturally he was bombarded with 6 God questions. One such question pertained to the recent collaboration between Yachty and Drake, “S.O.D. (Supersoak).” The song was played by Kai Cenat during a recent Twitch stream, and fans have been eager to know when the official version will be released on streaming. According to Lil Yachty, the answer is never.

Lil Boat revealed he was the one who sent “S.O.D.” to Kai Cenat. “I sent a song to Kai to leak,” he told host Andrew Schultz. The rapper then explained the reasoning behind the Twitch pivot: him and Drake couldn’t get the sample for the song cleared. “We couldn’t get the sample,” he added. “So I just let Kai play it.” Schultz asked whether “S.O.D.” would ever see the light of day, and Lil Yachty said no. He was ultimately, pleased, however, by how much attention the song got from the leak. “It’s everywhere,” the rapper noted.

More questions surfaced. Schultz was puzzled as to how an artist of Drake’s stature couldn’t secure a sample clearance. Apparently, it came down to religious beliefs. “S.O.D.” samples an IG post, and the person who made the post didn’t approve of the song’s lyrical content. “He went down like a Christian path,” the rapper explained. Lil Yachty claimed he didn’t get a chance to make the influencer an offer, however, before he was turned down. “I don’t even think we got into money, ” the rapper recalled. “He was just like, ‘no.’ It was crazy.”

The influencer wasn’t alone in his dislike for “S.O.D. (Supersoak).” Soulja Boy hopped on IG Live and accused Drake of dissing him on the song’s hook. “Drake, you up here talkin’ about some S.O.D. super soak,” Soulja said. “Boy, stop playin wit me, boy. That better be a f*cking shout out, n*ga.” Soulja Boy even made reference to Drake’s recent battle with Kendrick Lamar. A battle that Lil Yachty regretted discussing during a previous podcast appearance. During his Flagrant appearance, he said he’ll avoid speaking about Drake’s business in the future. “I just wish I had never spoke on it,” he told Schultz. “I wish I hadn’t said anything about it.”

Lil Yachty Wished He ‘Never Spoke On’ Drake And Kendrick Lamar’s Rap Beef

by

In the aftermath of Drake’s big beef with Kendrick Lamar, it’d be easy to forget that it all started with Future and Metro Boomin paving the way with their joint album, We Don’t Trust You, and its standout track, “Like That.” Lots of other rappers jumped in to voice their thoughts on Drake, not just Kendrick, and it led to one of his few remaining supporters, Lil Yachty, saying, “Drake was deemed a loser in this battle before it started, because people don’t like him.”

However, now Yachty appears to regret saying even that much. Appearing on the Flagrant podcast with Andrew Schulz, Yachty said, “I just wish I had never spoke on it. I wish I hadn’t said anything about it.” While the show’s hosts didn’t give him a chance to elaborate — because podcast hosts aren’t journalists and these in particular are… yeah — it sounds like Yachty’s about as fed up with hearing about the beef as Drake is.

While Drake seemingly waved the white flag after the exchange of diss tracks between the two quickly became one-sided, Kendrick fans have continued fanning the flames, crafting browser games about the feud, which even appeared as a clue on Jeopardy!. I’m sure Yachty would like to be asked about just about anything else, such as his new song with Ian, “Hate Me.” Well, almost anything: He seemed reluctant to discuss the departure of Karrahbooo from his Concrete Boys crew.

Juelz Santana And Fivio Foreign Call Out Lil Yachty For Trying To Diss NYC

Screenshot 2024 07 31 at 9.40.10 AM

There are numerous people that disagree with Lil Yachty’s opinion that Atlanta is the real home of fashion and trends and the Big Apple is only biting off of ATL’s swag, but Dipset soldier Juelz Santana and NYC driller Fivio Foreign took offense to his statement and wasted no time addressing Boat and his take on fashion.

On one of the more recent episodes of Yachty’s A Safe Place Podcast, he claimed that ATL is the real home fothe trendsetters and New York is merely taking pages out of ATL’s fashion sense.

“I feel like New York didn’t have this…I don’t want to say identity, but everyone used to just kinda copy Atlanta,” he said to podcast guest and New York native Cash Cobain. “You said it yourself. Even, like, the influence was extremely heavy from Atlanta […] As far as style goes, I don’t think it’s shit going on when it comes to New York fashion.”

He even took aim at people from specific boroughs like Queens and the BVronx, saying, “I feel just people on those outskirts — Queens, Bronx — do they even come to [Manhattan to shop]?”

Juelz took to IG to respond to Boat’s comments, saying, “WE all Love Atl But did @lilyachty SAY say the flyes [ninja emoji] N the Most TRENDSETTERS Came from ALT WOW Much love bro,” he wrote.

Santana then highlighted some of NYC’s fashion forward artits that have influenced the culture over the years, stating, “No luv lost br but, NEVER MIND!!!! PS @souljaboy I Don’t wWant No [smoke emoji] y’all got it @jimjonescapo they tryint to erase us from history I’m not even gonn name up @asaprocky @myfabolouslife @ceoslow @vado_mh @bloodyosiris @soberyungwalter @whodecideswar @murderbravado.”

Fivio Foreign also chimed in, writing on X (formerly Twitter), “How Yatchy say ATL dress better then ny w a whole NY fit.”

After the backlash, Boat seemed th backpedal on some of his sentiment, saying, “When you go back to a certain time, it’s for sure New York. But if you think about lately, all the trends come from Atlanta! First off, I got nothing but love for New York. I think a lot of the flyest people in the world were born in New York. I apologize to the Bronx if they feel some kind of way about that comment. Amiri down, do your thing. I be in New York so don’t fucking rob me. It was a joke.”

Lil Yachty Breaks Silence On Karrahbooo Leaving Concrete Boys

by

Karrahbooo was the first lady of the Concrete Boys. The collective founded by Lil Yachty always put forth the notion that they were a tight knit group. Which is what made the decision to remove Karrahbooo from the Concrete Boys Instagram bio so surprising. Fans quickly took note of the fact that the rapper was no longer included as a member. They also noticed that Karrahboo decided to unfollow Lil Yachty and the rest of the group on Twitter. Yachty confirmed the rumors on July 29.

The rapper hopped on Instagram Live to set the record straight about Karrahbooo. Right away, Lil Yachty makes it clear that it’s an awkward topic to discuss. “How do I wanna say this,” he says aloud. “I’mma say this sh*t one time. We have split ways with Karrah as far as this Concrete sh*t.” The rapper asserted that there are no hard feelings between Karrahbooo and the rest of the Concrete Boys. He also made it clear that he wants Karrah to have continued success. “I have nothing to say,” he explained. “Nothing bad to say, nothing negative to say about Karrah. I wish her the best in her career.”

Lil Yachty Voices Continued Support For Karrahbooo

Lil Yachty does not get into the specific reason Karrahbooo decided to leave. He reasserted his stance, despite noting at the onset that he would only explain himself once. “I don’t have anything really bad to say or anything good to say,” he added. “We just split, you know?” This is not the first time Lil Yachty and Karrahbooo have had a difference of opinion. In 2023, Karrahbooo experienced backlash for her use of the N-word in her music. Despite being of mixed, Lil Yachty took the side of Karrahbooo’s critics. He stated that the rapper should no longer use the word when she raps.

“I do, like, get kinda annoyed how everyday somebody’s commenting, ‘Why do y’all keep letting her say n-gga?’,” Karrahbooo said on the Safe Space podcast. “So why don’t y’all go ahead and defend me to everybody right now?” Karrahbooo’s plea to her label boss for support, however, did not go according to plan. Lil Yachty took the side of her critics. “That won’t happen,” he explained. “You shouldn’t say it.” Karrahbooo has not yet commented on her exit from Concrete Boys.

Grand opening. Grand closing. Lil Yachty is making it his mission to usher in the next generation of hip-hop talent. The “A Cold Sunday” rapper’s rising collective, Concrete Boys, have already undergone a shocking shake-up.

Following the group’s performance at Broccoli City Festival 2024, attendees noticed member Karrahbooo was nowhere to be found. This led to rumors of her abrupt departure from the Concrete Boys. Well, today (July 29), Lil Yachty official confirmed the split during an Instagram livestream.

“How do I wanna say this,” he said. “I’m going to say this sh*t one time, alright? We have split ways with Kar[rahbooo] as far as this Concrete sh*t.”

Although he did not disclose the reason for or circumstances surrounding the break, Lil Yachty did share a positive message for his now former collaborator.

“I don’t have nothing…nothing bad to say. Nothing negative to say about Kar[rahbooo]. I wish her the best in her career. Yeah. That’s that. You know? That’s pretty much it. I don’t have anything bad to say. Or anything good to say. We just split, and I wish the Kar[rahbooo] in her career.”

Watch Lil Yachty’s full video below.

Karrahbooo has not yet issued an official response to the confirmation.

Lil Yachty Claims He Made $8 Million In The First Eight Months Of His Career After Being Challenged Over An Audacious Boast

by

After a fan challenged Lil Yachty’s assertion that he’s “richer than your favorite rapper” on his new song “Hate Me,” Yachty made another bold claim, arguing that he’s not only among the richest rappers, but that he also made his supposed net worth according to Google (a notoriously iffy source for that sort of thing) in the first year of his career.

Posting a screenshot of the Genius.com lyrics from “Hate Me,” one fan asked, “What possessed him to put this on his mom☠?” Another noted, “he willingly jumped on that crack both feet,” sharing screenshots of searches of a few of their favorite rappers’ net worth. One for Playboi Carti says $20 million, while Kendrick Lamar’s reads $90 million (what a marvel, the duality of man), compared to Lil Yachty’s, which read $8 million.

However, as with previous incidents of fans looking up rappers’ net worth on Google (seriously, a fool’s errand, guys, unless it’s been publicized, it’s probably not accurate), the clap back came quickly. “i made 8 million in my first 8 months of rappin in 2016 on god,” Yachty sneered. “yall be letting this internet guide yall. in real life sh*t is different i’m tellin u.” Truer words were never spoken.

Did Karrahbooo Leave Lil Yachty’s Group Concrete Boys?

All eyes are on Lil Yachty’s rising hip-hop collective, Concrete Boys. As individual acts, the members have begun to build out a fan base for themselves. But as a group, newer rap fans have started to cling to them following their joint singles.

Of the acts, its first lady, Karrahbooo has become a fan favorite. But according to reports, the “Running Late” rapper is no longer a part of the collective. Continue below for more information.

Did Karrahbooo Leave Lil Yachty’s Group Concrete Boys?

Yesterday (July 27), Lil Yachty and Concrete Boys were set to perform at 2024 Broccoli City Fest. Once the collective took to the main stage, attendees quickly noticed Karrahbooo was missing. Her username was also seemingly removed from the collective’s official Instagram biography section. In the public’s eyes, Karrahbooo left Lil Yachty’s group Concrete Boys. But further research shows that it might not be as clear-cut as supporters would like to believe.

Fans have begun combing through Karrahbooo and Lil Yachty’s latest posts online for clues regarding their status. Over on X (formerly Twitter), Karrahbooo shared a few vague things, including a video skit from TikToker Nurse John, that supporters believe backs up the rumor. In her stories, Karrahbooo posted a half dozen fans frantic questions about her whereabouts.

However, over on her Instagram page, Karrahbooo hasn’t removed “Concrete” from her display name. She also still follows several Concrete affiliates Pellz and Wiz as well as member Dc2trill.

An official statement has not yet been released by Lil Yachty, Concrete Boys, or Karrahboo. Could this be a simple spat among the blooming family? It sure appears this way.

Soulja Boy Threatens Drake After Hearing Alleged “Super Soak” Diss

by

Drake can’t go more than a week without angering another rapper. The Toronto star is still reeling from the fallout of the Kendrick Lamar battle. “Not Like Us” is still near the top of the charts. He claimed that he’s going to get back to making hits for his fans, but he didn’t mention the subs he’d be throwing at his peers. Kai Cenat previewed a Drake and Lil Yachty collab during a recent Twitch stream, and many fans believe the 6 God was taking shots at Soulja Boy. Soulja seemingly agreed, and he took to IG Live to make his feelings on the matter clear.

Soulja Boy did not beat around the bush. He called Drake out by name and told him to stand on business if he wants to beef. “Drake, you up here talkin’ about some S.O.D. super soak,” the rapper posited. “Boy, stop playin wit me, boy. That better be a f*cking shout out, n**ga.” If he finds out that it was a diss, then Soulja Boy is going to declare war on Drake. “You better keep that sh*t light, my boy,” he asserted. “This your first and only warning.” After the warning was made clear, the “Crank That” star got down to talking tough. “This not gon’ be the best idea for you, family,” he told Drizzy. He then urged Drake to “speak on how you feel” so the two men can “get to it.”

Soulja Boy Has Been Criticizing Drake For Years

Soulja Boy and Drake have not had a good relationship over the years. There was a period in which they were cool. Soulja produced the beat for Drake’s classic “We Made It” in 2013, but outside of that, Soulja has made his hatred for the 6 God crystal clear. During his IG Live rant, he joked about Drizzy losing the aforementioned rap battle to Kendrick Lamar. “How the f*ck you let Kendrick Lamar cook yo a*s,” the rapper asked. “And then the first thing you respond is you tryna come at me.” Soulja Boy went on to restate that the OVO founder doesn’t want more smoke. “I’m tellin’ you, my n**ga, Imma get on your a*s,” he promised.

Soulja Boy’s reaction to the Drake and Lil Yachty leak makes sense. “Super Soak” is a title that evokes the rapper’s biggest hit to date. Drake also makes reference to “S.O.D.” aka “stacks on deck,” which is a phrase that Soulja helped popularize in the 2000s. Both of these phrases are weaved into the chorus of the song too, drawing further attention to their use. It’s possible that Drake could be paying tribute to his predecessor. Given how often he likes to throw subs, though, we understand Soulja’s suspicion.

Lil Yachty & Ian Drop Aptly Titled Track For The Critics, “Hate Me”

by

Two rappers that know how to get debates going are Lil Yachty and newcomer, ian. The Georgia native’s evolution over the last year and change has earned him a lot of respect. However, at various points in this fan proclaimed, “generational run”, Lil Boat has been accused of copying other rapper’s styles and being a culture vulture. The latter of those allegations comes in conjunction with ian, who has essentially become a viral overnight sensation. He markets himself as just your average white suburban kid who hides his rap persona underneath. That combined with his Yeat influences clear as day on Valedictorian have led a lot of listeners to discredit him immediately. All of these reasons are why Lil Yachty and ian’s collaboration, “Hate Me”, comes at the right time.

This track is specifically for the haters, and it drops about a month after all of the aforementioned critiques were thrust upon them. Yachty and ian were also seen in the studio around that period, so this joint effort has been in the works. For now, “Hate Me” is out on YouTube only, and hopefully it gets a wider release because these guys snapped. Yachty and ian (in particular) have a lot of great one liners and quotables that fans are already gravitating toward (see below). Check out the #6 trending track for music on YouTube with the Lyrical Lemonade music video link.

Quotable Lyrics:

When it’s gamе time, jump in clutch
First thing in the mornin’, blunt
First thing in the mornin’, I jump off thе porch and head straight to the Porsche, get to drivin’ like somebody chasin’
Rock it ’cause I can afford it, my pockets enormous, every time that I walk, I’m chafin’
You don’t know how to ball, you lazy
You ignorin’ my calls, s*** crazy
