Stupid – YG ft. Lil Yachty, Babyface Ray
YG Flips the Script with “Stupid,” Enlisting Lil Yachty and Babyface Ray for a Genre-Bending Anthem
West Coast OG YG isn’t afraid to keep it moving, and his latest single, “Stupid,” proves it. Dropping on July 9th, 2024,the track throws down a gauntlet, a potent mix of fire and finesse that features the undeniable talents of Lil Yachty and Babyface Ray. This is a audacious genre-bend, a West Coast swagger laced with the melodic sheen of Atlanta and the raw energy of Detroit.
The official music video, which premiered a day before the song itself (talk about building hype!), is a visual feast already clocking in serious views on YouTube. It’s a full-on Californian dream, brimming with sunshine, luxury cars, and the undeniable presence of YG’s crew, the Concrete Boys.
But don’t be fooled by the glitz – the lyrics pack a punch. YG raps about his come-up, the journey from “slidin’ in the Buick” to the heights of success, delivered with his signature bravado.
Lil Yachty swoops in with his signature melodic flow, adding a layer of smooth confidence, while Babyface Ray brings the Detroit heat, reminding everyone that lyrical prowess transcends geographical boundaries.
The beauty of “Stupid” lies in its versatility. Fans of YG’s signature West Coast sound will find plenty to love, while those who dig Lil Yachty’s playful lyricism and Babyface Ray’s streetwise wordplay will be equally satisfied. The clean edit available on YouTube, caters to listeners who prefer their music unfiltered, but the original version is a testament to the raw energy this collaboration brings.
YG remains a force to be reckoned with, a true innovator in the hip-hop game, and “Stupid” is a powerful reminder that he’s not afraid to push boundaries and rewrite the rules.
