Who Is Pi’erre Bourne?

by

Pi’erre Bourne may be best known in mainstream circles for the “Yo Pierre, you wanna come out here?” tagline. However, Bourne is a multifaceted artist who works as a producer, rapper, and audio engineer. Along with producing some of the top tracks of the past few years for rappers such as Playboi Carti, Young Nudy, and Lil Uzi Vert, just to name a few, Pi’erre has also released three solo studio albums. Pi’erre has also worked closely with Kanye West and has recently solidified himself as one of the most prolific producers. Here’s a look at the life and career of Pi’erre Bourne.

Early Life

Pi’erre Bourne grew up in Columbia, South Carolina. In addition to this, he spent summers with his grandmother in Queens, New York. During his time in New York, Pi’erre’s interest in East Coast Hip-Hop acts such as Dipset and G-Unit grew. Pi’erre began making beats on FL Studio on his uncle’s computer in elementary school. Bourne’s uncle was a rapper and graphic artist.

Upon graduating high school, Bourne went to college for graphic design but dropped out after a year to pursue music. At this time, his uncle encouraged Bourne to move to Atlanta. Due to this, Pi’erre attended the SAE Institute to study sound engineering. While in school, Bourne befriended DJ Burn One, and after graduating, the two worked at a recording studio as audio engineers. In 2015, Pi’erre worked as an engineer for Epic Records but left after a year to pursue his own career as a producer.

Solo Career & Collaborations With Playboi Carti

The year 2016 proved to be the beginning of Pi’erre’s breakout as an artist. In 2016, Pi’erre began producing for Trippie Redd and eventual long-time collaborator Young Nudy. Additionally, Bourne released three solo mixtapes, The Life of Pi’erre, The Life of Pi’erre 2, and The Life of Pi’erre 3. Bourne’s popularity would skyrocket after he met Playboi Carti.

Pi’erre met Playboi Carti in February 2017 and collaborated on the track “Woke Up Like This” featuring Lil Uzi Vert. Pi’erre produced more tracks on Carti’s debut self-titled album, including the hit “Magnolia.” The track peaked at No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100. In addition to its commercial success, Pi’erre’s tagline on the song, “Yo Pierre, you want to come out here,” became its own viral sensation. The saying became an internet meme and a trademark attached to any Pi’erre beat.

Sli’merre, The Life of Pi’erre 4, & Collabs With Kanye West

With the success of “Magnolia,” Pi’erre’s talent as a producer was in high demand in 2017. That year, Pi’erre racked up production credits on 21 Savage’s Issa Album, Lil Yachty’s Teenage Emotions, Big Sean and Metro Boomin’s Double or Nothing, and Lil Uzi Vert’s Luv Is Rage 2. Pi’erre also produced 6ix9ine’s 2017 track “Gummo.” It charted at No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Pi’erre another top hit along with “Magnolia.”

In 2018, Bourne once again collaborated with Playboi Carti on his second album Die Lit, as he produced the majority of the songs and featured as a rapper on two tracks from the album. Around this same time, Pi’erre would also begin his collaborations with Kanye West. Pi’erre co-produced the song “Yikes” from Kanye’s album Ye and the single “Watch,” which featured West and Travis Scott.

Pi’erre then released a full-length collaborative project with Young Nudy in May of 2019 titled Sli’merre. Bourne produced all twelve tracks on the project, which included features from Megan Thee Stallion, DaBaby, Lil Uzi Vert, and 21 Savage. Sli’merre was met with critical acclaim and released at No. 1 on Apple Music’s US All Genres Chart. It also peaked at No. 63 on the US Billboard Hot 200. Also in 2019, Pi’erre released his debut studio album, The Life of Pi’erre 4. The album featured Bourne’s production and rapper abilities and peaked at No. 107 on the US Billboard Hot 200.

Recent Success: Grammy Awards & No. 1 Producer In The World

In 2020, Pi’erre’s contributions to Hip-Hop continued. Bourne produced four songs on Lil Uzi Vert’s Eternal Atake and also produced Drake’s “Pain 1993,” which featured Playboi Carti. “Pain 1993” peaked at No. 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. Because of this, Bourne debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 Producer Chart in March 2020. In addition to this, Pi’erre would once again collaborate with Carti on his third album Whole Lotta Red, which was met with critical acclaim.

Pi’erre once again collaborated with Kanye West on his album Jesus is King. Bourne co-produced songs “On God” and “Use This Gospel.” For his contributions, Pi’erre won his first Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album at the 2021 award ceremony. Bourne also released his second album, The Life of Pi’erre 5, in 2021, which peaked at No. 35 on the US Billboard Hot 200 charts. As with his previous album, Pi’erre produced the entire album and rapped on it as well.

Pi’erre’s success has continued to the present day, as he continues to contribute to some of the hottest tracks in Hip-Hop. Pi’erre also released his third album, Good Movie, in September 2022. He has also released two singles this year, “IG” and “Honeyberry 2.” Whether as a solo artist or producer, Pi’erre Bourne has cemented himself as one of the most influential and important artists of recent times.

21 Savage Surprises Fans During Young Nudy’s Atlanta Concert

by

Family ties can lead to incredible artistic chemistry, and there are fewer better examples of that than cousins Young Nudy and 21 Savage. Moreover, Nudy just invited 21 to join him during his Atlanta concert, his final homecoming tour stop for his 2023 dates. Unsurprisingly, the crowd went absolutely ballistic when 21 Savage graced the stage, and they performed the track “Peaches & Eggplants” to a wild group of fans. If you’re looking for more from the East Atlanta trap star, he recently released his latest food-themed album Gumbo, where he delivers high-quality cuts while tapping into his inner MF DOOM.

When it comes to the Her Loss‘s guest appearances as of late, they’ve been nothing short of energizing and impactful. The weekend before linking up with Young Nudy, 21 Savage appeared during Metro Boomin’s fantastic set at Coachella. Sure, they played some of 21’s contributions to his latest album HEROES & VILLAINS, but also went through their extensive and iconic collaborative history. Whether it was “X,” “Runnin’,” or “Bank Account,” the MC-producer duo ripped through the festival grounds like a hulking beast- or like The Hulk, considering Metro’s comic book-inspired presentation.

Young Nudy & 21 Savage Serve Atlanta Crowd “Peaches & Eggplants”

What’s more is that other artists recently took note of Young Nudy and 21 Savage’s chemistry, with one artist in particular remixing one of their team-ups’ instrumentals. None other than Lil Yachty took a shot at the duo’s “EA” in a snippet he shared while on Kai Cenat’s stream. Over the menacing instrumental, Yachty floats with off-kilter flows and consistent switch-ups that make his relaxed delivery feel more potent. Hopefully the remix lands sooner rather than later, as it would mark one of the only times that the 2016 XXL Freshmen officially collaborate on a song.

Regardless of that, Young Nudy will likely continue to deliver on the colorful yet still grimy aesthetics that he’s graced fans with so far. Another standout project from him is EA Monster, which he dropped last August to a lot of fan acclaim. It seems like no matter the occasion or the context, a Nudy and 21 joint never misses.

Lil Yachty Remixes Young Nudy & 21 Savage’s “EA” In New Snippet

by

Lil Yachty’s finally receiving his proper credit. A pioneering figure in the Soundcloud rap movement, he’s undoubtedly pushed the boundaries of hip-hop and influenced a generation of rappers who’ve followed him. However, in recent times, he’s also earned much more praise for his musical outings. 2022’s “Poland” became a viral hit that landed on many year-end song lists. But, it was his foray into psychedelic rock with Let’s Start Here that felt like a true testament to his range as an artist.

Some fans felt as though Let’s Start Here was Yachty’s attempt to abandon his rap beginnings. However, that clearly isn’t the case. He returned earlier this year with “Strike (Holster),” which bred some serious anticipation surrounding Yachty’s next project. Yachty leans into the vibrato delivery even further, just as he did on “Poland,” for a smooth, melodious banger. Still, it seems like “Strike (Holster)” is really just getting things in motion for a new era in Yachty’s career.

Lil Yachty Previews New Music

This week, Lil Yachty joined Kai Cenat on his recent livestream. Though the two delved into plenty of topics, including Cenat’s custom AF1s gifted by Twitch, the Atlanta rapper also previewed some new music. The rapper actually debuted a remix of Young Nudy and 21 Savage’s “EA,” which includes drill drums rather than Pi’erre Bourne’s signature trap percussion. It’s unclear where it’ll land but hopefully, it sees a release date in the near future.

Besides the recent remix, Lil Yachty’s been riding high in the last few months. He recently served as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live where he performed “The Black Seminole” and “Drive Me Crazy!” Prior to that, he revealed that he wanted to lock in for a joint album with Tyler, The Creator, who he said inspired him to explore the psychedelic rock sounds on his latest album Let’s Start Here. Overall, it looks like we’ll be getting a lot more music from Lil Yachty this year. Perhaps, he’ll announce an album sometime in the near future. Check out the snippet above and let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.

Young Nudy Releases New Album “Gumbo” With Food Names For Song Titles

Young Nudy’s new album, Gumbo welcomed his fans to a feast of new music. The rapper is known for his clever food name titles on his songs, and in this new LP, all the tracks have food titles to match the album. Atlanta rapper Young Nudy dropped his new album Gumbo, and all of the […]

Young Nudy Releases His Food-Themed Album ‘Gumbo’ In Spite Of The Huge Leak Of Nearly 200 Of His Songs

Hip-hop has a long, proud tradition of rappers naming albums and song titles after foods. You may never find a better title in all of rap than MF DOOM’s “Rap Snitch Knishes.” The latest rap mainstay to join this proud history is Atlanta rapper Young Nudy, who released his new album, Gumbo, today after teasing its tracklist over the weekend.

Each song on the album is named after some kind of food, and many are named after ingredients in a good pot of the titular soup, including “Okra” and “Shrimp” (I don’t want to hear any argument about this; unless you have food allergies, your gumbo must include shrimp, or it ain’t gumbo). Other tracks are named for other dishes — “Pot Roast” which features Nudy’s fellow feature-reticent rapper Key Glock, a match made in heaven — or ingredients — “Portabella,” “Duck Meat,” and “Peaches & Eggplants,” the latest collab between Nudy and his cousin 21 Savage.

The impressive 13-track playlist only includes those two features and once again finds Nudy rapping over dizzyingly weird beats, which has become his signature. It’s even more impressive that he had these tracks ready to go so quickly after someone leaked nearly 200 of his tracks, prompting him to issue an ass-beating threat on social media — a rare interaction for Nudy. It’s also a quick turnaround from EA Monster, the collaborative tape he released with Pi’erre Bourne just this past August.

Gumbo is out now on RCA Records. You can listen to it below.

Young Nudy & 21 Savage Serve Up “Peaches & Eggplants” On New “Gumbo” Collab

by

Rather than blend in with the crowd and drop an album on New Music Friday, Young Nudy is taking a different approach today (February 28). At midnight on Tuesday, the 30-year-old shared Gumbo, a 13-track effort that boasts plenty of food-themed titles, plus two features from Key Glock and 21 Savage. The PRE artist joins his friend on “Poat Roast,” which finds them both putting their rhyming skills on display.

Further down on the tracklist, the “X” hitmaker comes through on “Peaches & Eggplants” with a killer closing verse. “Okay, she fine (21) she sexy, she cool (21) / She from East Atlanta, so she like to get loose (On God),” Savage begins, throwing in plenty of his signature adlibs. “Casamigos, (Yeah, yeah), do some shrooms (21, 21) / But if you wanna come (21), give my brother some (Yeah).”

21 Savage Reunites with Young Nudy for His Gumbo Album

Nudy handles the top half of the COUPE-produced beat, revealing to listeners what it sounds like when he puts his “d*ck in that p*ssy” in his intro. His salacious antics only continue as his real bars begin to come out. “Slut out a freak, hit her from the back, turn her bladder deep / Do the triple legs when I’m in a freak, knock a ho to her knee,” he confidently spits.

Ahead of Gumbo‘s arrival, Nudy teased the project on social media earlier this month. Fans were notably eager to hear his first full-length effort since 2022’s EA Monster. That consisted of just 11 titles and saw one guest appearance from BabyDrill. Seeing as he worked with Glock and the Saint Laurent Don this time around, we’re eager to see what heights the Atlanta native’s career will rise to.

Stream Young Nudy’s “Peaches & Eggplants” featuring 21 Savage on Spotify or Apple Music below. Afterward, tell us your thoughts on the new collaboration from the two lyricists in the comments. Make sure to check back later for more release recommendations and hip-hop news.

Quotable Lyrics:

Okay, she fine (21) she sexy, she cool (21)
She from East Atlanta, so she like to get loose (On God)
Casamigos, (Yeah, yeah), do some shrooms (21, 21)
But if you wanna come (21), give my brother some (Yeah)

Young Nudy Is Keeping His Fans Fed With The Cover Art And Tracklist For His Food-Themed Album, ‘Gumbo’

New music from Young Nudy is coming soon. Yesterday (February 24), the rapper took to Instagram to reveal the cover art and tracklist for his food-themed album, Gumbo.

Gumbo boasts a hefty tracklisting that reads like a list of ingredients. It appears Nudy was also joined by some collaborators, who helped him cook up something great. Joining him in the kitchen are Key Glock, and 21 Savage, who is actually Nudy’s cousin.

Over the years, Nudy has garnered a large fan base and an online following, though, in an interview with XXL last year, he admitted he doesn’t spend too much time online.

“I ain’t gon’ cap to ya. The only way I knew my fan base growing, when I do a show,” Nudy said. “Other than that, trying to go from the internet and sh*t, I don’t really be getting it, because I be seeing rappers that got a million followers and sh*t, and they can’t even get 100,000 likes. And, I know I be getting them muthaf*ckas, and I ain’t got no bots or no fake sh*t. I got real Nudy fans. I feel like my fan base is slowly growing.”

You can see the cover art and tracklist below.

Young Nudy Teases Upcoming Album With Cover And Track List

by

Atlanta rapper Young Nudy took to Instagram yesterday (February 23rd) to announce the release date of his upcoming album, Gumbo. The 13-track album will be dropping on February 28th and features his cousin, 21 Savage, as well as Key Glock. The 30-year-old artist also revealed the cover art and tracklist for Gumbo in his post, captioned, “[G]UMBO February #28 #NUN #TO #DO.”

As insinuated by the shrimp and mushroom emoji in the post’s caption, Gumbo‘s tracklist is fully inspired by different foods. With songs named “Duck Meat,” “McChicken,” and “Portabella,” Nudy has channeled his appetite for success into his newest project. After releasing “Loaded Baked Potato” and “Barbecue” in his album Nudy Land, the rapper has earned a reputation for naming his tracks after snacks. However, Gumbo is his first project fully dedicated to food names. The post also revealed the album’s cover art, which stylistically features a red dinner table outfitted with plates of the song titles, a gun, and a stack of bills. In the center of the table setting is a statue of a snake, hungrily gazing over a bowl of gumbo.

Young Nudy’s Food-Inspired Album Drops February 28th

Nudy released his vibey mixtape EA Monster last year, which also featured a few tracks boasting a food-inspired name. “KitKat” and “Lunch Meat” fall alongside tracks like “Impala” and “Nun To Do.” The resulting project is the 11-song collection that earned Nudy a loyal following. Right now, Nudy is set to embark on an 8-week tour presented by Rolling Loud, which will include a set at the California festival.

After the announcement of Gumbo, fans excitedly took to Twitter to share their enthusiasm. Many were quick to note the humorous song titles, with one user writing, “every song is titled after food, we’re getting a classic.” Others simply displayed their excitement for the artist’s commitment to new music, with appreciation over the album cover. “Still never missed on an album cover,” one user mentioned, while another added, “nudy always has a dope cover.” Be sure to check out more Twitter reactions at the end of this article. As the release date for Gumbo approaches, keep up with HNHH for the latest drops in hip-hop.

Young Nudy Was Very Upset After 172 Of His Tracks Leaked: ‘I’m 100 Percent Gon’ Beat Your Ass’

Atlanta rapper Young Nudy has been on the rise over the past couple of years after dropping well-received projects such as the Sli’merre mixtape with Pi’erre Bourne, and his albums Anyways, Dr. Ev4l, and Rich Shooter. Most recently, he reunited with Bourne for EA Monster and featured on Metro Boomin’s star-studded new album Heroes & Villains alongside his cousin 21 Savage, raising his profile considerably in 2022. So, it’s understandable that fans are hungry for more new music from Nudy; however, someone went to more extreme lengths to get it, resulting in the leak of over 100 songs from Nudy and fellow Atlanta rappers like 21, Gunna, and Young Thug. Obviously, Nudy was not happy with the culprit.

“I don’t know if y’all know, I’m not like other rappers,” he responded in a video posted on his social media. “I’m 100 percent finna take my time out to find out 100 percent who exactly is leaking my music. And I’m 100 percent gonna pull up at whatever studio it is and I’m 100 percent gon’ beat your ass, on my mama.”

Considering the leak was mostly Atlanta-based artists, the going theory is that the leaker(s) had access to a recording studio frequented by the above names and likely made off with a hard drive containing the tracks (sort of the downside of digital audio recording. It’s way harder to steal tapes). It’s also possible that the hard drive was mislaid or even stolen when an engineer took it home for legitimate reasons.

Let’s hope that, for once, the police find the leakers and bring them to justice before Nudy does anything that could land him in jail. We want to see him flourish, not get caught up over some nonsense.
