SEARCH FOR: LIL GOTIT

Sometimes in life, a hobby can become your passion. Your life can change in a blink of an eye if you remain consistent and take a chance on yourself. Cordova is a prime example of this. After deciding that a typical 9-5 wasn’t for him, the Midwest artist took a leap of faith and pursued his rap career in 2020. Growing up, Cordova’s music inspiration came from Eminem, 50 Cent, Slim Thug, and UGK. During the summer of 2021, he finally debuted his first single featuring Boosie. Cordova’s next success came after he collaborated with Alamo Records artist Lilgotit. The track received enormous support on social media. The soaring artist also released an EP titled “Charcuteries” with four singles. Not only is Cordova an artist, but he also launched his marketing agency BlueStripsEntertainment. So far, the company has hired an in-house video creator in addition to an A&R. Cordova also has landed a distribution deal with a reputable group out of Memphis. In just two years, Cordova has generated close to 500k streams on all platforms, while landing on DJ sets such as Sirius XM. He also received support from The Game, DJ Envy, Strick, Unfook, & other YSL affiliates. …

Even if I’m not a huge fan of an artist or don’t listen to them extremely often, I always respect someone who is on their grind with tons of work to show for it. Atlanta is a city known for really never sleeping because it seems like most of the musicians who call ATL home are never letting a week go by without releasing something new, but out of everyone in the southern city, Lil Gotit has proven that there is never a shortage of music to be made, and he seizes every opportunity he gets to show off his skill set, which is extensive I must add. This is the main reason why I think I write so much about him, because although I do genuinely appreciate his music, even if I didn’t, I would at least know I could count on him to give me something memorable to post about. Enjoying his tracks is just a perk, and his most recent release “MF TRIMM” is yet another new single that he put out for fans to enjoy, even though we’re not too far out from his latest album The Cheater. Nonetheless, West, 808 Jayy, and AyoJarri produced this …

Michael Vincent Waller or MVW lands fresh in our pages today with his new track “Oscar” alongside the unique and elusive Chicago artist Valee who skates with his trademark nonchalant flow overtop MVW’s laid-back regal instrumental as he juxtaposes a brooding classical piano melody with skittish, rousing percussion. Producer is a title that simply falls short for MVW as he is a classically trained composer who grew up in Staten Island and fell in love with both orchestral music and hip-hop, growing up a massive Wu-Tang fan. MVW’s entire catalog has been lauded by critics and he effortlessly blends elements of what would be considered “high-art” in the minds of academics with the contemporary trap production that has integrated its way into nearly every style of music you can think of. He boasts a number of intriguing collaborations with big names, also recently working with Desiigner, Matt Ox, 645AR, Babyface Ray, and Lil Gotit, among others. I can’t wait to see which artists he chooses to work with next and would highly recommend delving through his catalog if you enjoyed “Oscar.”

Although I may talk about all of the different rap hubs in the country quite often, I think that there is one point that I haven’t beaten into the ground yet. This is the fact that in these different parts of the US, there are so many different sounds and personalities that if you are loud and unique enough, you just might have a chance to break through barriers and become recognized on a nationwide or even worldwide level. I say that because this is exactly what Lil Keed and his brother Lil Gotit did. They took a sound that they knew the world loved thanks to Young Thug popularizing it and completely flipped it on its head, drawing inspiration from those who did it before them as well as each other, but they never copied, and they took their time in order to craft a style that was as unique as it gets. Of course, the entire music world is still mourning the passing of the great Keed, and while it isn’t an easy loss for anyone, I sympathize with Gotit more than anyone. Gotit is a soldier, though, and he knew that sitting back wasn’t going to help …

As I get further and further down this rabbit hole that is the music industry, I find myself losing more and more time in terms of listening to some of the hottest acts out. There are just so many underground emcees that steal my attention away from larger artists who are making statements, and while this isn’t something I have a gripe with, it is something that makes me late to the party on various artists. As far as Atlanta’s very own CEO Trayle, he is someone that I have seen pop up on my newsfeed countless times, and while I thought I wasn’t hip to his music, I realized that I had written about a Lil Gotit song he was featured in a while back, and I can’t believe I wasn’t fully encapsulated by him after hearing his latest offering “Of Course”. This track is produced by Stribb and is included on his project The Collection as the closing record, and while this is a tape that I definitely need to listen to in its entirety, the music video for this track is definitely more than enough to get plenty of attention. Directed by Never Panic Films, the ATLien …

Throughout my years in this industry as a writer and contributor for Lyrical Lemonade, I have honestly come across few talents who are as surprising as Lil Gotit. The Atlanta emcee was always someone I had enjoyed even early on, but I really only listened to him when he was featured on one of his brother, Lil Keed’s songs, and that was really the extent of my experience with him. Then, one day I randomly decided to check out one of his earlier mixtapes to just find something new and different to listen to, and that is exactly when I turned into a fan of the young star. I honestly don’t know what song did it for me, but I knew that as soon as I heard how versatile his voice could be and how enthusiastic his cadences proved to be, I knew that he was going to be one of my favorites for quite some time and that admiration only continues to skyrocket now that his latest project The Cheater is in our hands. I am always happy when we receive new music from him, but it seems like this year started out pretty quietly when compared to other …

Every few years the Atlanta rap scene goes through an almost implicit changing of the guard largely because there is a new exciting talent emerging out of nowhere every month or less and as these new artists breakout, the underground scene only grows stronger and stronger until these locally loved artists crossover into music’s mainstream consciousness. It is the classic idea of a rising tide lifting all boats and young artists showing potential are supported and assisted by the city’s rap royalty since their teenage years. Southside Atlanta’s Lil PJ is no exception and over the past year or more he has been captivating the attention of the youth and the top figures in his city’s scene that can be seen all over his catalog as features and throughout his Instagram comments. He recently just unloaded his debut mixtape Gift From God that showcases his unique melodic gifts and features many big names from his hometown. PJ shows off his incredible versatility throughout the project, gracing a variety of instrumental styles and revealing a number of different flows. He called upon CEO Trayle, Lil Keed, Lil Gotit, Slimelife Shawty, and BSlime to support as guest verses and PJ sounded right at home …

I think it has barely been a week since I last covered a new Lil Gotit song, but that was the first track that he has released in quite some time. With that being said, I think it’s officially safe to say that Gotit season is back in full force, and that’s something that everyone should be beyond excited about, especially with such a solid foundation built beneath his already impressive steps in the right direction. Last year, we found out exactly why he was the “Top Chef”, cooking up insane records that seemed to only get better by the day, but this year, with a project entitled The Cheater releasing at some point this spring, I think we’re in for an entirely new side of the talented Atlanta phenom. Alongside the announcement of this forthcoming tape is a song called “Take Care” featuring Toosii and Millie Go Lightly, as well as a BeDifferent Media-directed music video that is as clean as can be in the song, though, we are heaved into a world of lighthearted melodies, careful percussion, and always pungent drums that is only elevated by the effervescent vocals of Millie as the song progresses. Gotit shows off …

If you know anything about me, you know that I’m a big Lil Gotit fan. There was a time not too long ago when he was dropping multiple tracks per week, and even when I thought that his older brother Lil Keed was outdoing him in terms of numbers and a growing fanbase, I realized that Gotit was even more unique than anyone in the Atlanta area, and I think this helped him ditch the shadow of his sibling in no time. Regardless, I feel like he is such an underrated talent, and if anyone is mentored by artists like Young Thug and Gunna, you know they’re set up for success. It seems like quite some time has passed since I last tapped in with Gotit for one reason or another, but when I was scrolling through YouTube yesterday, I realized that he dropped a new song called “Freestyle” as well as a Brett5d and BENNYBANDZ-directed music video that I was definitely not going to miss out on. In the instrumental for this hit, things seem to be very epic with synths and drums that combine as if there is a build-up to something huge, and Gotit ensures that he’s …

Lil Gotit has always been an artist who I felt like I was on a weekly streak of writing about something new that he released. It almost felt like he never found time to sleep because he was always working, but I’m not complaining even slightly considering he was one of the most entertaining names in the entire rap world. Of course, as a lot of other fans were, I was put onto him through his older brother Lil Keed and his affiliation with Young Thug and Gunna, but I quickly realized he was as individual as it gets, and he wasn’t just another Atlanta clone like so many other artists seem to be. This past summer, he turned even more heads with his album Top Chef Gotit, but ever since that was released and he dropped a few music videos for it, it seemed like he went a little quiet, and I found myself hungry for more music from the ATL up-and-comer. Thankfully, that hunger was satisfied recently after he dropped a brand-new song entitled “Walk Down” featuring CEO Trayle, Lil Double 0, and Biggz as well as another dope music video that was directed by Shotbywolf and Nelshoitit. …
