The 15 Best Lil Yachty Songs

Screen Shot 2022 05 12 at 12.28.52 PM

Let's talk about the best Lil Yachty songs - from his early days with "One Night" to his most recent unreleased leaks. The Atlanta rapper has come such a long way since his debut on SoundCloud and subsequent signing to Quality Control. In no particular order, here's our list of the 15 best Lil Yachty songs.

RELATED: Introducing Dc2Trill, the Texan Rap Phenom

15. "Plastic" - Lil Yachty (feat. Icewear Vezzo and Rio Da Yung OG) (2021)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 3

What better way to start this list off than Lil Yachty's iconic Michigan Boy Boat album from 2021? This banger features the likes of Icewear Vezzo and Rio Da Yung OG, who matched Yachty's energy perfectly. Talk about a Michigan masterpiece: "Plastic" shows off the best elements of the hip-hop sub-genre.

14. "Who Want The Smoke?" - Lil Yachty (feat. Cardi B and Offset) (2018)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 8

Who can forget the first time they heard "Who Want The Smoke?" with Lil Yachty, Offset, and Cardi B all together on a single song. The energy was absolutely electric, and it's no coincidence why all three of them have continued to thrive in their respective careers to this day.

13. "Split/Whole Time" - Lil Yachty (2020)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 9

This is arguably one of the hardest Yachty songs ever, I will vouch for that on anything. From the intro to the very last moment of this song, there's something very special about this one. It's so characteristic of Yachty, so it's no surprise why it's become such a popular song.

12. "Minnesota" - Lil Yachty (feat. Quavo, Young Thug, and Skippa Da Flippa) (2016)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 1

Off his debut album, "Minnesota" is an absolute classic Lil Boat banger. The song shows off all of the best sides of Yachty around the time of his breakout into the music scene. Ahh, the good ol' days of SoundCloud.

11. "Solid" - Lil Yachty (feat. SoFaygo) (2021)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 2

The beat of this song makes you want to tilt your head back and ascend into the sky. From Yachty's cunning bars to SoFaygo's unmatched vocal approach, they bodied this beat perfectly, and showed exactly how fire a collab between the two of them is.

10. "T.D." - Lil Yachty (feat. Tierra Whack, A$AP Rocky, and Tyler, the Creator) (2020)

Let's not forget Yachty's song with this legendary cast of characters, which sampled the "Tokyo Drift" production, and became a modern classic. Every artist on this song has a reputation for being creative, and they didn't disappoint with this one.

9. "Demon Time" - Lil Yachty (feat. Draft Day) (2020)

Yachty has a knack for putting listeners on to the best underground artists, and that's exactly what he did here with Draft Day. If you're a seasoned Yachty listener, then this feature should've came at no surprise to you.

8. "Get Dripped" - Lil Yachty (feat. Playboi Carti) (2018)

Here's yet another one of the best Lil Yachty songs. Off of Yachty's Nuthin' to Prove album, "Get Dripped" gave fans a rare glance at just how special Yachty and Carti collabs are. The two artists morph their unique Atlanta-based styles together, and create music that literally nobody else in rap could replicate.

7. "66" - Lil Yachty (feat. Trippie Redd) (2018)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 7

As far as timeless Lil Yachty classics go, this song is one of the top options. Trippie Redd and Lil Yachty both bring an unconventional style to the table, so of course the result of their collaboration is exactly that: unconventional.

6. G.I. Joe - Lil Yachty (feat. Louie Ray) (2021)

Another song from Yachty's Michigan Boy Boat album, "G.I. Joe" was yet another standout. It's great to see the chemistry Yachty has with all of the many features from this project, but there's something especially unique about the energy shared between Boat and Louie Ray.

5. "All of the Opps Is Opp'd" - Lil Yachty (Unreleased)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 10

While not everyone is probably hip to this song, everybody should be. This Cash Cobain-produced banger samples Roy Ayers' "Everybody Loves the Sunshine," and turned it into a contemporary drill classic. Thank us later.

4. "Dynamic Duo" - Lil Yachty (feat. Tee Grizzley) (2021)

The name of the song is no lie: Lil Yachty and Tee Grizzley really are a "Dynamic Duo," but you should've known that already, after their prior collabs. To Lil Boat diehards, this was no surprise. On a stacked project, somehow this song managed to be one of the standouts.

3. "Poland" - Lil Yachty (2022)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 6

Talk about "best Lil Yachty songs." It's impossible to forget the iconic moment Yachty had with the leak of this song. "I took the woOoOoOoOok... to Poland" will never get old, at least to the younger generation. The memes that were generated from this wave will surely never age, that's for sure.

2. "DipSet" - Lil Yachty and Offset (2016)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 5

Lil Yachty and Offset have connected numerous times on collaborations, yet for some reason, this one never ceases to smack. If you haven't heard it already, here's your chance. Feast your ears upon yet another classic.

1. "Coffin" - Lil Yachty (2020)

Best Lil Yachty Songs 4

One of the most memorable Lil Yachty releases ever was his 2020 single, "Coffin." From the moment the video teaser dropped, the hype was there. This felt like the start of a new era of Lil Yachty, embracing the most modern landscape of music, as he's always done in true Yachty fashion.

NEMZZZ Taps Lil Yachty For Sentimental New Song "ITS US"

The teenage rapper secured a major cosign from Lil Yachty.

ITS US

Young rapper NEMZZZ has had a few viral moments dating back to 2021. That included a viral hit on TikTok in 2021 and his "NEMZZZ Type Beat" last year. Earlier this month, he released his long-awaited debut album DO NOT DISTURB . It arrived on the back of his singles like "MONEY AND VIBES" and "L's." But it didn't take him long to release even more material. Less than a week after the album dropped he shared a deluxe version that added four new songs.

It didn't take long for fans to hone in on the breakout track of the deluxe edition. NEMZZZ grabbed Lil Yachty for an impressive crossover on the song "ITS US." While the track is short, it's absolutely packed full of personality. It has a beat that combines hard-hitting drums and glistening keys that suits both Yachty's singing and Nemz' rapping. They also released a music video for the new song which is simple but effective. It's racked up more than 200k views on Youtube in just a few days since it was dropped. Check out the music video and new song below.

Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth on The Collective, her brilliantly dark new hip hop-inspired album

A woman in a leather jacket holds its lapel in her hand and up to her face

Kim Gordon 's new album The Collective is a harrowing 40 minutes of fractured beats, squalling noise, and spoken word diatribes on gender, capitalism, tenpin bowling, the American Dream, gun violence and so much more.

The 70-year-old musician and visual artist first came to our attention as a key member of New York noise rock legends Sonic Youth , one of the most influential rock bands in modern rock.

Outside of that band, whose 30-year career came to an end in 2011 after Gordon's separation from husband and fellow founder Thurston Moore, her work has been decidedly noisier, more experimental, and focused on feeling as much as traditional song craft.

This month she released her second solo album The Collective, made in collaboration with producer Justin Raisen. Raisen has a history of working with indie stars like Angel Olsen, Yves Tumor and cutting-edge pop favourite Charli XCX, but has more recently found acclaim working with buzzed rappers like Lil Yachty, Drake and Kid Cudi.

"I told Justin I wanted to have more beats," Kim Gordon tells Double J's Karen Leng.

"I work off of rhythm better than melody. I'm not really much of a melodious singer. I like space."

Indeed, those in search of melody on The Collective will be disappointed. Gordon's vocal approach is more akin to a cross between a 60s beat poet and 80s rapper, as she spits scathing verses with her perennially alluring blend of coldness and cool. Her guitars are noisy and discordant.

Raisen's beats are loud, distorted, and violent, sounding more like the backing for Atlanta rappers Playboi Carti or Destroy Lonely than Gordon's legendary old band.

"[The Collective is] kind of an estimation of me bringing my dissonant guitars and my unconventional vocal style and weird lyrics [to those beats], and how it would all kind of mesh together," Gordon says of the album.

"Justin would send beats, I would decide what I felt like I could do stuff on, then I would go in and make guitar parts and make up vocals. Or bring in some lyrics, but also improvise.

"Then he would sort of shape and edit it. Then I would maybe go back and do more. It was kind of a layered process."

Gordon first tapped Raisen to help craft her debut solo album , 2019's No Home Record. While that record was no less arresting than The Collective, it felt closer to Gordon's indie rock roots than the new album, where both artists really embrace modern trap production.

Her willingness to follow her producer to the edge — and vice versa — is what makes the creative partnership so fruitful, Gordon says.

"I think he likes working with me because I'm very free and he gets to be free too and really take things as far as possible," she says.

"He's very supportive, and it's almost like 'I dare you to make a song out of this'.

"I think he really gets off on what his rapper friends think of the record. He's like, 'This is gonna blow their mind'."

The album's opening song and first single, BYE BYE, has been met with widespread adulation.

A tense and terrifying beat from Raisen is immediately anxiety inducing. Over the top, Gordon simply, calmly recites a packing list.

Hoodie, toothpaste Brush, foundation Contact solution Mascara Lip mask, eye mask, ear plugs Travel shampoo, conditioner Eyeliner, dental floss Money for the cleaners

"The music was so compelling and intense, but I didn't want to do a vocal that tried to match it," Gordon says.

"I thought a packing list would be really banal, something that could be a good contrast. The music makes it sound very anxious."

Its accompanying video, featuring Gordon and Moore's daughter Coco and directed by Clara Balzary (daughter of Red Hot Chili Peppers' bassist Flea for those playing at home), is a gripping and disorienting tale of teen rebellion that has clocked up half a million views.

Most amusing to Gordon, though, is the song's TikTok success.

BYE BYE is now the soundtrack to hundreds of TikTok videos. From people detailing skincare routines , to packing their own bags , to expressing shock at the creative ambition of a 70-year-old woman making an album of such vibrant intensity (they clearly don't know Kim Gordon), its dark and jittery production and Gordon's deadpan delivery have really connected with creators and users on the platform.

"I don't even know what that means, honestly," Gordon reveals.

"I mean, don't people just listen to 15 seconds of music at a time? I don't know. It's fun. It's funny. It's so abstract to me."

Gordon explores the fragility of masculinity on I'm A Man, as she speaks from the perspective of a confused man who feels disenfranchised by modern society.

"The song was inspired by a couple things: a right-wing politician, and these male groups who are going around saying feminism destroyed men and masculinity," she explains.

"They're a little whiny, but I was like, 'Okay, what does it really sound like if you give voice to those complaints, instead of trying to argue with somebody about it? Let's just hear what it is.'"

Its video juxtaposes the 'traditional' ideals of a man — specifically those seen in old western films — with the secret, somehow shameful desires of another man to dress in women's clothes. It's a simple comment on gender fluidity and those who try and repress it, but one that connects easily.

Gordon concedes, however, that there's a long history of fluidity in music and that her peers and heroes may not feel the same reluctance to embracing their feminine side.

"Like Harry Styles… people made such a big deal about it, because he got a new stylist, and it kind of gave his career a boost. But Mick Jagger did that in '68 or whatever, and David Bowie…" she considers.

"I do feel like music is a platform where men actually get to expose more of their female side, be more vulnerable, and it's kind of more accepted."

But what about the flip side? Does the music industry enable a woman to embrace her masculine side?

"You can," Gordon considers with a laugh. "I think it's a little different."

"It's very powerful if you're playing the electric guitar, I don't know about acoustic or if you're a pop singer.

"There's something about electricity and making loud sound that's very powerful."

In the brilliantly titled Psychedelic Orgasm, Gordon takes us on a trip through Los Angeles: buying $20 potatoes, watching kids sipping on smoothies, while also observing drive-by shootings and the unhoused starting fires in camps.

"It's kind of a song about LA, but LA is sort of reflective of the rest of the country," she says.

"These extremes of the wealth gap, and Millennials spending a lot of money on smoothies and coffee and stuff like that.

"It's almost like a fantasy about, what if we just had a general strike, and everyone stopped doing what they're doing and used our creativity in escaping, or something? Like in the ultimate passive aggressive way."

While it still doesn't pack much in the way of traditional melody, its choruses (if you can call them that) feature the very familiar modern sound of autotune. It fits beautifully, but Gordon took some convincing.

"I hate auto tune," she says. "You hear it on every R&B [song], that filter. It just drives me crazy. So, I put it through all my vocal effect pedals. [Raisen] was like, 'It's ironic if you do it!'. I could see his point, so we kept it."

The next step for Kim Gordon is taking The Collective on the road. She has a couple of dozen shows booked through North America, Europe, and Japan for mid-year, so the time has come to figure out how this curious and complicated record takes life with a band of real-life musicians.

"I'm trying to memorise the lyrics," Gordon admits.

"I think our drummer Madi [Vogt] will have kind of a hybrid kit and be sampling some things. Sarah [Register], the guitar player, I think she'll be sampling stuff. Then there'll be some sounds that we can't reproduce."

As for a return to Australia? Gordon says she "definitely will" some time. Her longtime loyal fans will be there, perhaps alongside a whole new generation aching to experience their new obsession.

The Collective is out now.

J. Cole Raps About Buying His Masters Back From Jay-Z: 'Sh*t, Business Is Business'

Cole signed with Jay's Roc Nation back in 2009, the same year he dropped his 'The Warm Up' tape.

J. Cole says he’s "grateful" for the experience of paying Jay-Z to get his masters, rapping in a new snippet that "business is business."

The snippet in question is tucked in around the six-minute mark in the latest volume of the two-time Grammy winner’s Might Delete Later video series. In the clip, Cole points to his success as a Roc Nation artist and reflects on having "paid dues" earlier in his career, like so:

Y'all ask Jigga, how much did the kid gross for that label? Paid dues, had to pay dude for my masters, but I'm grateful Shit, business is business

lil yachty solid lyrics

View this video on YouTube

Also in the latest video update from Cole, who recently told fans he's "at the tail end" of working on a new album , he briefly discusses initially signing with Jay. Per Cole, Jay told him they would not be releasing a project under that deal until he "got some fucking hits." As Cole recalled, this challenge later led to him becoming "super-powerful" as an artist. See more above.

Cole signed with Roc Nation in 2009. In an interview with Damien Scott for Complex that year, Cole detailed his initial meeting with Jay for which he was " nervous as shit. " A mere three weeks after that meeting, Cole said at the time, he received official word that Jay wanted to make a deal with him.

Meanwhile, the topic of master recordings, though long considered a crucial part of the larger debate surrounding record label practices, has taken on even greater relevance in recent years. This is thanks, in large part, to Taylor Swift 's much-discussed strategy of re-recording prior albums as a "fuck you," of sorts, to those who own her masters.

But as far back as the late Prince , many artists have been vocal about what they see as the importance of securing ownership of one’s masters. Prince, for example, is said to have declined to work with other artists who didn’t own their masters.

As for Jay, he opened up last October about his own masters battle, pointing to its difficulty as why he wouldn't consider selling them in the future.

“I want my kids to see my work," Jay told Gayle King at the time. "If they decide to sell it, then it’s up to them."
