For Young Thug’s SNL musical debut, the rapper brought out Gunna and Nate Ruess for a melodic performance of “Love You More,” their collaboration from Thug’s new album Punk.
Thug also performed a raucous, punk rap performance of latest single “Tick Tock.” For both songs, Blink-182 joined Thug on stage behind the kit.
Thug’s “Tick Tock” performance, with head-banging guitar and heroic drum fills, is reminiscent of when the rapper debuted the song during his NPR Tiny desk performance back in August.
Young Thug released Punk, his second studio album, on Friday, featuring a slew of features from the likes of Post Malone, A$AP Rocky, Drake, Travis Scott, Future, Doja Cat, J Cole, and late rappers Juice Wrld and Mac Miller. Punk follows several popular releases for Thug including April’s Slime Language 2 and 2019’s So Much Fun, both of which topped the Rolling Stone 200 album chart.
Ovrkast and Niontay are quickly becoming two of the most promising new voices in hip hop today. On Wednesday, the two artists came together to release a fresh collaboration titled "Wata." The song is built around a dreamy and hypnotic beat that gives both rappers plenty of space to stand out. The chorus is memorable and highlights the strong writing talent they both bring to the table. Their delivery feels sharp and confident throughout, and the overall energy of the track creates a smooth, enjoyable atmosphere. Anyone who already follows Niontay and Ovrkast will likely find this team up worth the listen. With a release like this, it would not be surprising to see more music from the pair in the near future.
