The New Orleans rapper has released the tracks ‘Big Lyfe’ and ‘Wizdom’ in recent weeks, and yet they have failed to reach charts unlike many of his other singles.
Kevin Gates had an unexpected hit this year though with “Thinking With My Dick,” a Juicy J-featuring 2013 single that took the world by storm on TikTok this year. It also was charted No. 37 on the Billboard Hot 100.
This is not the first occasion Gates has gone viral on TikTok. “Big Gangsta” and “Me Too” both influenced the high ranking on the app.
He’s back today May 16, 2022, with his third single, ‘Bad For Me,’ and this is more in the tone with the wards winning artist.
The new track “Bad For Me” recreates the story of a relationship with a drug dealer’s daughter, which he previously explored in songs such as “Plug Daughter” and “Plug Daughter 2.”
Kevin Gates discusses the advantages and disadvantages of his ride-or-die chick and how they pertain to the streets.
The new releases “secrets” & “Kepper” are expected to be on Kevin Gates’s new upcoming album titled “Khaza” which is set to be released on June 17, 2022.
