YEAT SHARES NEW VIDEO SINGLE “THE BELL”

OUT NOW WATCH | LISTEN

Alongside the announcement that his forthcoming mixtape Road 2 Riches Vol. 1 will arrive soon, Harlem rap newcomer and “Angelic Drill” originator R2R MOE has just shared a remix to his recent single, “HAWK ‘EM”, featuring Brooklyn rap star Sheff G –– out now along with an accompanying music video. The 3-minute drill hymn gets a fresh perspective, with Sheff G sliding his harmonic verse across the entrancing vocal sample and pace-shifting drums, while R2R MOE weaves his patient delivery into the pockets of the production. The link-up with Sheff G for the “HAWK ‘EM” remix arrives on the heels of a momentous 2024 year that saw R2R MOE earn a transformative co-sign from UK rap royalty, Skepta. What began as cross-continental admiration soon gave way to the collab single “Miss Independent” (12M+ Streams), a seamless fusion of London grime and New York drill, as well as an energetic performance at Skepta‘s Big Smoke Festival in London. Late last year, R2R MOE embarked on a tour across Asia, performing in cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Seoul, connecting with international audiences along the way, and drawing inspiration from an array of cultures –– blooming his already strong musical narrative beyond the streets of New York. 

R2R MOE has had a steady yet calculated rise in the rap sphere, garnering buzz with standout tracks like “9 LIVES”“FAIR2ME2”, and “FACE2FACE”, the latter of which featured Cash CobainVontee the Singer, and Chow Lee. The Harlem artist also caught the spotlight with his recent sold-out NYC headline show and On The Radar performance. Through it all, his work ethic has been beyond astute, with the rapper releasing 28 tracks on his SoundCloud in 2024 alone and kicking off 2025 with new releases “PLUTO” (feat. Highway) and “PROGRESSION”. Now with the “HAWK ‘EM” remix, R2R MOE is continuing to challenge rap’s status quo — bringing a melodic take and blue-collar lyricism to his city’s sound.

About Yeat: 

Low-fi melodies, clever cutting lyrics, and a distinctly mysterious persona are all highlights that build up the enigma that is Yeat, one of the most interesting rises in music. The prolific rapper broke through in 2021 when his song “Gët Busy” began appearing in TikTok videos. The track became so ubiquitous that it caught the attention of heavyweight rappers, including Drake, Lil Uzi Vert, Gunna, and many more. As his fame skyrocketed, so did the mania surrounding the artist’s cult-like following which led to the shutdown of a show in Los Angeles at The Roxy. Now, with two headlining tours under his belt, four Billboard Top 10 Album Debuts, and over 8 billion global streams, the young talent is well on his way to superstardom. Yeat was born Noah Smith in 2000. He began releasing music around 2015, taking notes from Young Thug’smelodic strangeness and the inventive production styles of rappers who were rising to prominence as he grew up. He started out using the moniker Lil Yeat, but shortened it to Yeat in 2018. That year, he released his first mixtape, Deep Blue Strips. From then on, he was in hyperdrive. As his fame skyrocketed, Yeat released the mixtapes Alivë and 4L, and the TrëndiEP, before the release of his first proper studio album. Up 2 Më was issued in September 2021 followed by a second studio LP, 2 Alivë, in early 2022. Just last year, Yeat was tapped by superstar Drake to collaborate on record “IDGAF” which is featured on Drake’s album For All The Dogs. The song, which was an instant hit, debuted at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and #1 on the Billboard Global 200. Recently, Yeat‘s LYFESTYLE reached #1 on the Billboard 200chart selling 89K equivalent album units –– LYFESTYLE marked Yeat’s fourth entry into the Top 10 in only two years: Lyfë (No. 10 in 2022), 2 Alivë (No. 6 in 2022), AftërLyfe (No. 4 in 2023), 2093 (No. 2 in 2024) and now LYFESTYLE (No. 1 in 2024).
