French Montana previously began the year on a high note with the arrival of his previously delayed Coke Boys 6 project. Across 20 titles, the “Unforgettable” artist collaborated with names like Vory, Jeremih, Benny The Butcher, and EST Gee, just to name a few. Fans were obviously hyped to have new music from Montega, though the hype didn’t last long before tragedy struck.
A few days after the Gangsta Grillz tape landed, a shooting broke out during one of French’s music video shoots in Miami. The 38-year-old thankfully wasn’t harmed, however, his bodyguard and fellow rapper Rob49 weren’t so lucky. Both have since recovered from their injuries, though police have since tried to pin the incident on Montana.
Despite the drama, the Morocco-born rhymer continues to put his music first. Following the arrival of CB6 last month, he returned this Friday (February 10) with an amped-up club anthem called “RATATAAAA.” Montana made the track in tandem with 2Rare, who’s best known for working with NLE Choppa on last October’s “Do It Again.”
The song’s lyrics are mostly repetitive, but it’s the beat behind them that really shines. “Bitch, I’m him, bitch, I’m him, pretty faces if they slim / Bitch, I’m flexin’, need no gym, bitch, I’m ballin’, need no rim,” the “Mopstick” artist raps. In the accompanying visual, he and 2Rare markedly bring their energy to Gaucho’s Gym in the South Bronx along with plenty of friends.

Quotable Lyrics:
Bitch, I’m him, bitch, I’m him, pretty faces if they slim
Bitch, I’m flexin’, need no gym, bitch, I’m ballin’, need no rim
I’m viral, need no film, need that B, I don’t need no Ms
That ass fat when she CashApp, duck your iPhone screen, I tap that, haan
