‘Her Loss’ has 21 Savage feeling like a winner!
The chart-topping rapper may currently be enjoying the out-of-the-box success tied to his new joint album with Drake, but his hi,tmaking resume before the LP’s November 4 release speaks volumes. In addition to amassing four Billboard 200 top 10 albums since 2017 (two of which hit #1), the 30-year-old has also collected six Hot 100 top 10 smashes (including two #1s) and charted over 60 songs on the same tally.
Easily making him one of the era’s most popular emcees, Savage believes his lengthy list of hits towers leagues above many names in the Rap game – especially those that shared space with him on XXL’s coveted ‘Freshman Class’ list in 2016.
So much so, he even called them out by name in a recent interview.
Hot on the promo trail in support of ‘Her Loss,’ Savage said he’d win any showdown between himself and any challenger from his freshman class that included Lil Uzi Vert, Denzel Curry, Kodak Black, G Herbo, Lil Yachty, Anderson .Pakk, Dave East, Lil Dicky, and Desiigner.
“That Freshman cover, nobody can beat me, nobody,” 21 boasted (as heard above) in a Clubhouse interview Saturday (November 5).
When the interviewer started naming some of the alums from the class, the Atlanta-reared rapper doubled down on his belief that he would be victorious if he engaged any of them in a VERZUZ battle.
“Oh, so you can beat Lil Uzi?” asked a moderator before 21 quickly hit back, “Hell Yeah.”
Uzi – one of the best-selling rappers of the last decade – was a clear standout from the class as he’s accumulated six Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hits (including one #1 smash), charted 85 songs, had three top 10 hits on the Billboard 200 (including two #1s), and outsold everyone in the 2016 freshman class.
Alas, while Twitter erupted in debate on if the GRAMMY-winning emcee is right, none of the would-be contenders have responded to the boastful claim…yet.
