The song peaked at 72 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it White's first entry on the chart as a lead artist. On December 5, 2017, White released the song "Dark Knight Dummo", which features Travis Scott. Later that month, White released a collaboration EP with Lil Wop, Angels & Demons. The album debuted at #34 on the Billboard 200. In October 2017, White released his second mixtape, A Love Letter to You 2. White was included on XXXTentacion's album 17, on the song "Fuck Love", which peaked at number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100. In May 2017, White released his debut mixtape, A Love Letter to You, with the lead single "Love Scars", which received more than 8 million views on YouTube within several months and more than 13 million on SoundCloud. White eventually signed to the label Strainge Entertainment (now known as Elliot Grainge Entertainment) and relocated to Los Angeles. They began working with Kodie Shane and recorded three projects, Awakening My Inner Beast, Beast Mode and Rock the World Trippie. Lil Wop helped White get started with a professional recording studio. Trippie Redd earned his highest Billboard 200 charting in November 2018 with the mixtape, A Love Letter to You 3, debuting at number three. The album was released Aug and debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 Album Chart selling 72,000 album-equivalent units.

With four albums, four mixtapes, eight EPs and two deluxe editions to his name since 2016, you wish he’d slow down and focus on longevity.Michael Lamar White IV (born June 18, 1999), known professionally as Trippie Redd, is an American rapper, singer and songwriter.įollowing his high school graduation, Trippie Redd moved to Atlanta, where he met rapper Lil Wop and was eventually offered a record deal with a professional recording studio. Most record in his bulging back catalogue tend to boast a handful of knockout tracks that keep his name in the zeitgeist, but – with the exception of 2018’s ‘!’ and 2019’s ‘Life’s A Trip’ – don’t tend to reward repeat listens. ![]() ‘Trip At Knight’, like many of the rapper’s other projects, is an uneven affair that suggests a lack of quality control. Now Trippie’s reprised the mediocre track into the hyper-pop theme, fitting pre-existing vocals onto the electrocuted rap beat. The song first was released on SoundCloud weeks after the passing of the scene’s leader, XXXTentacion, and earned mixed reviews from their both artist’s fandoms, especially when Migos’ Quavo randomly ended up on it. There’s a great feature from Detroit’s underground hitmaker Sada Baby on ‘Captain Crunch’, but even that song makes you think: what happened to ‘Betrayal’, the Drake collaboration teased online? The album’s lowest point is ‘Danny Phantom’. ![]() The rest of the album is enjoyable, but not as memorable as that track. Over the wheezing synths and fried 808s, the two exercise their braggadocio perfectly, their back-to-back approach meshing beautiful, as one seems to randomly pick up from the other: “Asking if I love her, I told her ‘hardly’ / Jumping off the top rope on that bitch like Matt Hardy”. It’s their fourth posthumous collaboration together – and they never miss. It’s clearly a celebration not only of Trippie’s wordplay, but also of the undeniable creativity exemplified by his late peer Juice WRLD. ![]() The best example of this (and arguably the highlight of this record) is the wrestler-referencing ‘Matt Hardy 999’. Rampant, chaotic and high-octane, this album sees the 22-year-old embrace the colourful production of hyper-pop. On ‘Trip At Knight’, he explodes the concept, letting his inner child run free. The release, ‘Neon Shark Vs Pegasus’, which was billed as “presented by Travis Barker” of Blink-182, showcased two clashing sides of Trippie’s alternative approach to rap music: ‘Neon Shark’ epitomised his guitar-ridden punk side, and ‘Pegasus’ his emo-rap sound. ![]() At the start of this year, Trippie finally delivered ‘the rock album’ he’s always promised his fans, a new version of last year’s ‘Pegasus’. Ohio-born Trippie Redd has risen to the top of the rap totem pole with a harmonious blend of rock croons over his evolving hip-hop production picks. ![]()
