SleazyWorld Go On His Breakout Year, “Sleazy Flow” Success & Lil Baby & Offset Relationships
When those haunting piano keys and rattling bass hits, you know it’s going down. SleazyWorld Go catapulted into our collective consciousness earlier this year with the release of “Sleazy Flow” – a song that cemented his fate as a frontrunner of the new generation of artists. At the time, SleazyWorld Go lost his YouTube page and had to rebuild the momentum from scratch. However, he created a new YouTube channel where he dropped “Sleazy Flow” and soon after, it formed a life of its own.
In a matter of months, SleazyWorld Go became one of the hottest names in hip-hop. He earned co-signs from heavyweights like Lil Baby and Offset, both of which appeared on his debut project, Where The Shooters Be.
“Sometimes, it feels surreal,” SleazyWorld Go told HNHH of his meteoric rise from YouTube sensation to earning the respect of artists like Baby and Offset. “Back when I was younger listening to them, I never would have thought or known that I would be doing music with them in the future but, it happened… Listening to their music back then, now I’m doing music with them.”
For the penultimate installment of HotNewHipHop’s 12 Days Of Christmas, we caught up with the SleazyWorld Go to discuss his meteoric success, relationship with Tech N9ne, and leaving a legacy behind like Juice WRLD.
This interview has been condensed and edited for clarity.
Kota The Friend Returns With A Message On New Single: “I’m Really It Bitch”
Kota the Friend wasn’t shy about sharing new music this year. In the summer, his MEMO album arrived, boasting appearances from friends like Brianna Castro, Hello O’shay, and Samuellimàta.
Since then, he’s appeared on “Pretend” with pluko, as well as on the Subtract Remix of “Let You Drown” alongside KingTrey. Most recently, we heard another collaboration from him and O’shay on “Red Lights” back in November.
Now, the 30-year-old has one last song to sing before we close out 2022. Earlier this week, he delivered “I’m It,” on which he boldly asserts himself as someone who’s spiritually sound and trusting their own path and instincts.
“Got a money tree and I water it on the daily / Trust my intuition, I go wherever it take me,” the New Yorker rhymes. Following that he adds, “Polarizing n*gga, you finna love me or hate me / I don’t give a f*ck either way tho, ‘cuz baby / I’m it, I’m it, I’m it, I’m really it bitch.”
On his Instagram page, promotion for the new single has been minimal. However, K did reveal via his Instagram Story that he has exciting plans to launch a production company in 2023.
Stream Kota the Friend’s “I’m It” on YouTube or Apple Music below. Afterward, let us know what your favourite New Music Friday release is so far this week in the comments.
Quotable Lyrics:
Got a money tree and I water it on the daily
Trust my intuition, I go wherever it take me
Polarizing n*gga, you finna love me or hate me
I don’t give a f*ck either way tho, ‘cuz baby
I’m it, I’m it, I’m it, I’m really it bitch
NBA YoungBoy Shares “Perc 10” From New “Lost Files” Mixtape
YoungBoy Never Broke Again is easily the most prolific rapper of 2022. Over the course of the last twelve months, YoungBoy has dropped eight full-length projects. In January, he unleashed Colors, and less than two months later, he doubled back with Better Than You alongside DaBaby. Then, YoungBoy dropped his sprawling fourth studio album, The Last Slimeto, towards the end of the summer. Although most artists would have stopped there, YB kept going. As a result, YB fans received Realer 2, 3800 Degreez, Ma’ I Got a Family, and 3860 with Quando Rondo in a span of four months.
Surprisingly, YoungBoy has returned with yet another project, titled Lost Files, this Friday. In contrast to his other recent releases, however, is more like a compilation project containing some of the artist’s most popular unreleased tracks. Thus, fan-favorite tracks like “Temporary Time,” “Rich Nigga,” and “Perc 10” are finally available on streaming services.

NBA YoungBoy’s “Perc 10” officially hits DSPs.
According to Genius, YoungBoy recorded “Perc 10” in 2018, but it was prematurely leaked in 2020. Since it first hit the net, it has been known by names like “Narcotics” and “Blow Yo’ Rocket,” but for its official release, NBA went with “Perc 10” for the title.
The song features bouncing production from Baton Rouge hittmaker PlayboyXO. YoungBoy and XO previously worked together on tracks like 2018’s “Genie” and 2020’s “Dead Trollz,” and “Perc 10” is further proof of their collaborative chemistry. On the three-minute track, YoungBoy skates over the eclectic beat with ease, delivering some motivational bars in the process.
Check out the lyrics and stream “Perc 10” below.
Quotable Lyrics
This for my brothers who in the slums everyday
Tryna prepare for pain cuz more heart break is on the way
Up in public we get it on smokin’, shootin’ heroine broad day
In the heart of Atlanta Baba screamin’ 4K Trey

In a new interview with The New Norm with Selena Hill, Ashanti spoke about linking up musically with her ex.
“The majority of the questions I’ve been getting lately are, ‘Oh, are y’all getting back together?’” said the singer. “But releasing music together? The one thing that I can say is that we’re both very business savvy. So, if something is presenting itself as an opportunity to get money, we’re probably both gonna be with it.”
“I don’t know if we’re gonna go to the studio or anything together,” Ashanti added. “But what I will say is, again, we’re both very business savvy. If an opportunity presents itself to make a record and get to the bag, we’re probably gonna be all in.”
