Lil Yachty’s second wind is becoming more imaginative than his first.

Videos by American Songwriter

After emerging on the hip-hop scene in the mid-2010s with hits like “One Night,” “Minnesota,” and “Broccoli,” Yachty hit a bit of a trough in popularity and viral appeal to end the decade. But now, after a recent smash hit single and career-altering studio album , Yachty is back in the spotlight and continuously leaving listeners speechless, as evident in his new song “Strike (Holster).”

Six months removed from his quirky song “Poland,” which reached No. 40 on the Billboard Hot 100, and a little over two months since his experimental psychedelic rock record Let’s Start Here , “Strike (Holster)” sees Yachty continue to ride his roaring wave of momentum even more. Employing similar vocal inflections as “Poland,” holding the prolonged “oooooooh” harmony at the song’s climax, Yachty looks to have stumbled upon a winning formula.

Throughout the track, the Georgia native raps about his love for promethazine and fits multiple different allusions in for the word strike. Strike shit like a match, Strike like I missed it, Strike like I hit the pin, Strike like I’m not goin’ to work he croons on the chorus, Yachty’s spontaneity and youthfulness brim all over the recording.

When he approaches the second verse of the song, he playfully illustrates the effect of Percocet on his significant other, leaving her motionless. Putting a playful spin on the usually-harsh motifs of guns and drugs in rap music, “Strike (Holster)” is a masterclass by Yachty.

Percy got her stuck like a holster It’s a gun in my holster New Balenci’ out in Dover It’s a four in my soda, sit it on a Balenci’ coaster

“Strike (Holster)” was first teased via Instagram on March 23 by Cole Bennett, prominent music video director and founder of music video brand Lyrical Lemonade. Alluding to a visual for “Strike (Holster)” being in the works, fans knew to expect the song’s release shortly after.

Less than two days after the song officially came out on digital streaming platforms, Lyrical Lemonade uploaded the music video to their YouTube page on Saturday (April 8). The fifth time Bennett and Yachty have collaborated on a video, “Strike (Holster)” sees Yachty donning a red hoodie and head-bopping to the song’s blissful production.

Since its release, the visuals for “Strike (Holster)” have already eclipsed 1 million views, proving that Yachty’s resurgence is for real. It’s unclear if the new song is in promotion of an upcoming project , but it is indisputably a signifier of Yachty’s work ethic and unique songwriting. Check out the video below.

Lil Yachty ‘Strike (Holster)’ Song Review

Lil yachty strikes again with synth-driven single 'strike (holster)'.

Lil Yachty 'Strike (Holster)' Song Review, Yours Truly, Reviews, March 7, 2024

Lil Yachty returns to the music scene with a new single, “Strike (Holster),” following the release of his fifth studio album, “Let’s Start Here,” and a recent appearance on Saturday Night Live. Teddy Walton and Aaron Bow created the laid-back, synth-driven track. Yachty fans may also expect a music video for the song to be published later today.

Lil Yachty 'Strike (Holster)' Song Review, Yours Truly, Reviews, March 7, 2024

“Strike (Holster)” begins with a lively pre-chorus that sets the tone for the rest of the song. Lil Yachty brags about his late-night exploits and his desire to “strike” – a reference to both his popularity and his party lifestyle – in the chorus. The lyrics highlight Yachty’s distinct flow and creative wit as he discusses his affluent lifestyle, demonstrating that he is not to be ignored.

“Strike (Holster)” has an undeniably compelling production. Teddy Walton and Aaron Bow have created a beat that compliments Yachty’s laid-back, melodic sound wonderfully. The synth-heavy beat and soft bassline create a chilled ambiance, making the tune a great addition to any late-night playlist.

Lil Yachty’s lyrical style remains fun while also touching on topics of success, riches, and partying. The verses are jam-packed with smart words and references to his lavish lifestyle, such as “I change whips like they change shoes.” The rhythmic repetition of “strike” in the chorus adds to the song’s infectious quality and will definitely have listeners singing along.

“Strike (Holster)” follows a string of teases from Lil Yachty, his sister Nina Simone, and NBA player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The song was popular even before it was released, thanks in part to Nina singing along to the excerpt in December 2022. While her contribution was welcomed with varied reviews, excitement for the song grew.

Cole Bennett directed music video for “Strike (Holster)” will most likely add another dimension of visual appeal to the track. Bennett is recognized for his inventive and fascinating music videos, so fans should expect something unique to accompany Lil Yachty’s latest hit.

“Strike (Holster)” demonstrates Lil Yachty’s ability to continuously produce engaging, catchy music that connects with his fan base. The track’s laid-back, synth-driven production and Yachty’s distinct flow make it an easy listen that will appeal to both new and veteran fans of the Atlanta rapper.

“Strike (Holster)” is an excellent addition to Lil Yachty’s ever-expanding discography. The single features his distinctive style and brilliant wordplay, while the bouncy chorus and engaging sound make it a song that many listeners will certainly play on repeat. “Strike (Holster)” is likely to have a lasting impact on the music landscape with the imminent release of the music video, further solidifying Lil Yachty’s standing as a key figure in the world of hip-hop .

Lil Yachty Shuts Down Playboi Carti Sound Comparisons

Earlier this week, Kai Cenat previewed an unreleased song from Lil Yachty during his livestream. After fans accused the “A Cold Sunday” artist of copying Playboi Carti’s cadence, he decided to respond on Twitter yesterday (March 20) evening.

“Biting him? How did I bite him? The beat? If that’s the case, I [have] been workin’ with Cardo since 2019 or 2020 on record. Y’all fans be smoking the strongest d**k,” Yachty quote-tweeted a social media user’s shade. The original post that he responded to read, “Carti can’t try one new sound without rappers immediately biting him. He’s generational.”

Cardo, who’s known for producing songs for Drake, Travis Scott, and Kendrick Lamar, has worked on several of Carti’s recent releases. The Grammy-winning beatmaker is responsible for “H00DBYAIR,” “KETAMINE,” “ EVILJ0RDAN ,” and “BACKR00MS,” all of which are expected to appear on the musician’s next album.

Unfortunately for Yachty, people pointed out more alleged similarities than just the beat. One account wrote, “The song is terrible. The beat is a ‘H00DBYAIR’-type beat. Your flow is an obvious attempt at a Carti flow, and you used a ‘what’ ad-lib in the same cadence [that] Carti uses.”

biting him? how did i bite him? the beat? if that’s the case i been workin with cardo since 2019-2020 on record yall fans be smoking the strongest dick https://t.co/rlcaSRsoP7 — CONCRETE BOY BOAT^ (@lilyachty) March 21, 2024
The song is terrible, the beat is a hoodbyair type beat, your flow is a obvious attempt at a carti flow and you used a ‘what’ adlib in the same cadence carti uses. This is a terrible attempt at copying him and you’re pretending you’re not biting — igor. (@hadmyback) March 21, 2024

Yachty also dismissed accusations of him copying Carti last year. In July 2023, DJ Akademiks claimed the Whole Lotta Red artist “made him change his entire sound” during a livestream . The music commentator further alleged that records like “Poland” and “Strike (Holster)” drew influence from the Georgia native.

However, Yachty quickly pointed out, “[You are] so insane. I didn’t tell [you] this at all. Stop drinking, bro. I said [Tyler, The Creator] encouraged me to take that route.”

@Akademiks u r so insane, I didn’t tell u this at all. Stop drinking bro. I said tyler encouraged me to take that route. Wtf https://t.co/rxNJnVVjQq — CONCRETE BOY BOAT^ (@lilyachty) July 10, 2023

In 2023, the QC rapper put out Let’s Start Here. , which featured Justine Skye, Teezo Touchdown, Daniel Caesar, Diana Gordon, and Fousheé. It saw him venturing into psychedelic rock and spawned songs like “​​​drive ME crazy!” and “pRETTy.”

Lil Yachty Has a Wild Clapback to Fans Saying He Stole Playboi Carti’s Flow

Cop Your XXL Merch Now

Lil Yachty is clapping back at fans who accused the rapper of stealing Playboi Carti ‘s flow on a new song.

On Wednesday (March 20), Yachty responded to chatter online surrounding his flow on an unreleased song Kai Cenat previewed during a livestream last Monday (March 18). Fans were quick to call out Lil Boat’s cadence on the track, with many of them comparing it to Carti’s.

“Biting him? How did I bite him?” Yachty wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, in response to a critic. “If that’s the case i been workin with cardio since 2019-2020 on record yall fans be smoking the strongest d**k.”

Cardo is known for producing all of Carti’s most recent releases : “H00dByAir,” “Ketamine,” “EvilJ0rdan” and “Backr00ms.” So fans were quick to clap back at Yachty’s clapback.

“The song is terrible,” the user @hadmyback replied . “The beat is a ‘H00DBYAIR’-type beat. Your flow is an obvious attempt at a Carti flow, and you used a ‘what’ ad-lib in the same cadence [that] Carti uses.”

Boat had previously announced in an Instagram post on Feb. 13 that he is dropping a new album with James Blake .

“I mean, granted, I think James has worked with a quite substantial amount of hip-hop artists. But this project is so left for both of us,” the Quality Control rapper said in the video clip. “And then, aside from the one picture that James posted, which—he doesn’t have many followers actually—I don’t think people know that we know each other exist. So it’s just gon’ be like, ‘What the f**k? When they do this?'”

Lil Yachty had previously dropped off “A Cold Sunday” on Feb. 2.

Lil Yachty on Claim He Copied Playboi Carti's Sound: 'Y'all Fans Be Smoking the Strongest Dick'

Yachty also pointed out that he's been working with producer Cardo for several years.

Lil Yachty has a message for those he believes are "smoking the strongest dick" when it comes to assessing his music .

As seen below, Kai Cenat recently previewed an unreleased Yachty track during a stream, prompting some listeners to start comparing the clip to the work of Playboi Carti , who's expected to drop his long-teased Whole Lotta Red follow-up at some point this year.

kai cenat just previewed a new lil yachty snippet on stream pic.twitter.com/wi75w15snr — isaiah✰ (@tlop444) March 19, 2024

One tweeted response in particular ultimately caught Yachty's attention, with a listener arguing that Carti "can't try 1 new sound without rappers immediately biting him." Yachty disagreed, as did other listeners.

“[B]iting him? how did i bite him?” Yachty asked. “[T]he beat? if that’s the case i been workin with cardo since 2019-2020 on record yall fans be smoking the strongest dick.”

A screenshot of a Twitter exchange between users discussing a rapper's collaboration and music evolution

Cardo’s production discography is extensive and notably includes several recent Carti releases, " H00DBYAIR " among them. He’s also worked with Drake , Travis Scott, Kendrick Lamar, and more. Just last month, he was enlisted for Yachty's " Something Ether ."

As fans will recall, Yachty urged Akademiks to " stop drinking " in July of last year after a claim about Carti inspiring his then-recent artistic output.

"He said he’s in the studio with Carti and Carti made him change his entire sound. Facts," Akademiks claimed at the time, swiftly spurring a response from Yachty, who called him "so insane" for making the remarks.

"I didn’t tell u this at all,” Yachty added.

Next for Yachty is a run of tour dates including previously announced performances at the Dreamville Festival in Raleigh and Coachella in Indio, both slated for April. As for more new music, Yachty recently spoke out about a full-length collaborative project with James Blake, tentatively titled Bad Cameo .

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.
