MoneyBagg Yo Refines His Formula On New Album “SPEAK NOW”

MoneyBagg Yo knows what fans want from him. The Memphis rapper makes hard, trunk-rattling trap music. It’s what led to him breaking out in the 2010s, and what has kept him thriving in the 2020s. He’s scored top 20 hits on Billboard, scored a Grammy nomination, and worked with some of the biggest rap artists in the world. If it ain’t broke, there’s nothing to fix. That’s the approach MoneyBagg Yo takes on his new album, SPEAK NOW. And it works. This is not MoneyBagg Yo’s country pivot, despite sharing a title with a Taylor Swift album.

Fans might also be thrown off by the fact that the rapper has a duet with country superstar Morgan Wallen on the song “WHISKEY WHISKEY.” It’s an odd combination on paper, but it actually works pretty well, with Wallen blending pretty comfortably into MoneyBagg’s trap aesthetic. The other features on the album are veterans when it comes to riding hard-hitting beats, and they deliver accordingly. Chris Brown shines on the moody slow jam “DRUNK OFF U,” and Lil Durk proves that him and MoneyBagg still have great chemistry on “GANGSTAS RELATE.” That being said, SPEAK NOW is at its best when MoneyBagg Yo goes solo. “PLAY DA FOOL” and “SPEAK” are testaments to the repetitive, hypnotic pocket the rapper is able to tap into. Fans are going to like this one.

Let us know what you think of this brand-new track, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming projects.

Moneybagg Yo Unveils Tracklist & Features For Highly Anticipated “SPEAK NOW”

Fans are not going to have to wait much longer for Moneybagg Yo to drop SPEAK NOW, as the rapper has just revealed the tracklist. According to HipHopNMore, the platinum certified artist did so moments ago and we also have full knowledge of the accompanying features. This is a big deal, mainly because Yo was hyping up a guest that he wanted, which forced him to move the LP back to a later date. It is why fans have been a little restless, as the album was supposed to hit streaming on May 24.

It appears that the artist that the Memphis native was able to sneak in was Lil Durk. Yo shared a screenshot of a text conversation with him and Smurk, and both were pleased with how it turned out. The Chicago native is one of five guest artists for SPEAK NOW, with YTB Fatt, Kevo Muney, Chris Brown, the already-known Rob49, and country star Morgan Wallen rounding out the names. The latter may be a shocker to some, but he has worked with rappers in the past, including Lil Durk.

Moneybagg told Uproxx that he was working on the album, which would feature Morgan Wallen, two years ago; of the delay, he told fans on X, “Just Got A Crazyyyyy Feature In I Couldn’t Drop This Project Without Now Everything Locked In Fasho sho Its Worth Da Wait.”

While he took time between albums, Moneybagg Yo went on tour with Finesse2Tymes, Sexxy Red, Luh Tyler, Big Boogie, and YTB Fatt in 2023 and appeared on the Gangsta Art 2 from his label, CMG. More recently, he contributed a verse to GloRilla’s new mixtape Ehhthang Ehhthang.

Moneybagg Yo Drops Off Blistering “PLAY DA FOOL” One Week Ahead Of “SPEAK NOW”

Moneybagg Yo has fans on the edge of their seats. The Memphis, Tennessee spitter was on pace to drop his newest album SPEAK NOW on May 24. However, the 32-year-old was not quite ready to release it to the masses just yet. Subsequently, fans were left disappointed, but there is a good reason for it. The hitmaker revealed that a major feature could not be left behind and he wanted to make sure that record would make the cut. SPEAK NOW is just one week away from dropping (June 14), so the wait will hopefully be worth it in the end. But before that arrives, Moneybagg Yo has one more single to share from it called “PLAY DA FOOL”.

This is the third offering from the project, as it supersedes “Bussin” with Rob49, and “TRYNA MAKE SURE”, which has been popping off. Yo is synonymous with being cutthroat and aggressive and “PLAY DA FOOL” is no different. Subsequently, you get a lot of bars about street life, snitches, violence, and the like. Moneybagg locks in and finds a pocket as soon as the record starts, leading to a thoroughly entertaining 2:20.

Ari Fletcher Claims Moneybagg Yo’s Ex Has Been Harassing Her For 5 Years

Ari Fletcher has been going back and forth with the mother of one of Moneybagg Yo’s children all week. It started seemingly innocuously when she took to her Instagram story to share a selfie. While that isn’t out of the ordinary for Fletcher she was sporting a shirt that got some attention. “His ex is my biggest fan” the text on her shirt reads. That didn’t sit right with everyone and it specifically rubbed one of Moneybagg Yo’s exes the wrong way.

Fittingly, his ex took to social media with her own t-shirt slogan. “tell your boyfriend to stop calling me,” her response shirt read. That led to a full-on back-and-forth of the pair taking shots at each other. Fletcher clapped back next with a post about May being mental health awareness month, which was obviously her taking a shot given the context. “Only thing mental is your fake happy ass,” Moneybagg’s ex posted on her Instagram story shortly after. But it was actually a reply to Moneybagg Yo himself where Fletcher made the biggest revelation of the entire brief beef. Check out what she had to say below.

Ari Fletcher Talks To Moneybagg Yo’s Ex

When Moneybagg Yo tried to take himself out of the picture and claim that nobody was actually talking about him, Fletcher replied. Though his original tweet was eventually deleted, Ari got her response in beforehand. “Don’t say nobody say your babymama. It’s been 5 years of stalking and harassment. This sh*t is SO beneath me” the tweet she made reads. That wasn’t the only post she made though. She followed up her first response with a scathing post about Yo’s ex calling her out for being obsessed despite not being all that close to him.

What do you think of Ari Fletcher’s recent back-and-forth with the mother of one of Moneybagg Yo’s children? Do you think she’s telling the truth when she says she’s been harassed for 5 years? Let us know in the comment section below.

Moneybagg Yo Disses BIG30 On Leaked Song, He Seems To Respond

It seems like Bread Gang Entertainment, Moneybagg Yo’s label, is facing some internal conflict at the moment, as an unreleased diss track seemingly against signee BIG30 surfaced online over the weekend. In it, he claims that there have been sneak disses and behind-the-scenes betrayals on BIG’s part, and that Bagg gave him all the resources necessary for his career. However, the label boss thinks that his artist fumbled the bag and just isn’t connecting with the fanbases anymore, as well as suggesting a gambling addiction. Furthermore, it’s not the best look for the former “GO!” collaborators, and hopefully they can resolve their issues through a clean rap battle or just a heart-to-heart.

However, BIG30 allegedly responded to Moneybagg Yo via a Facebook post from Friday (May 17) after he first heard the unreleased diss track. “And who tf said they gone die bout that lame a** s**t,” the Still King MC reportedly expressed, per AllHipHop. “That don’t even sound like me truth be told n***a recruited my n***a for protection. Sholl hope yeen never thought my n***a had super powers he couldn’t do it by his self fool a** n***a. You came to our hood for the muscle cause them folks starting putting pressure on his a** extortion only!! He still paying n***a to this day to stay off his ahh.
