Lil Yachty got nothing but love for The Boy. In the past year, the relationship between Lil Boat and Drake has only gotten stronger in the public eye. Not only has Drake been an avid supporter of Lil Yachty’s latest musical endeavors but he also enlisted the Atlanta artist for production and adlibs on his latest project, Her Loss. Additionally, their bromance took center stage earlier this year when Drizzy sat down for a half-hour conversation on A Moody Conversation, an interview series launched in conjunction with Yachty’s line of Futuremood sunglasses.
Overall, Drake’s taken Lil Yachty under his wing and it’s quite clear that their bond continues to thrive. Most recently, Drake enlisted Yachty to help open up his concerts in Madison Square Garden in New York City. Drizzy, who will perform three nights at the venue, called on the Atlanta rapper for a quick set ahead of his extravaganza alongside 21 Savage. From the footage of Sunday’s night’s opening show at MSG, Lil Yachty left fans thrilled by his energetic presence on stage.
Following his set, Lil Yachty sat back and watched the show. Considering that he has a tightknit relationship with the OVO team, even walking Drake out on stage previously, he undoubtedly had some great seats to watch the spectacle. On Sunday night, Yachty took to Instagram where he shared incredible praise for Drake and his mentorship recently. “Only of the only n***as I look up to,” Yachty wrote on Instagram, alongside of a photo of Drake on stage.
It’s unclear if Yachty might join Drake and 21 Savage for the remainder of the It’s All A Blur tour or if he only opened up Sunday night’s concert. We could imagine that the two have been working on plenty of music together. Perhaps, we could expect a feature from Yachty on Drake’s forthcoming album, For All The Dogs. Check out Lil Yachty’s post above and sound off with your thoughts in the comment section below.
KATSEYE have officially begun a fresh chapter with the announcement of their forthcoming single, Pinky Up.
The K-pop girl group sparked curiosity online after sharing a string of mysterious posts that quickly had fans trying to piece together the clues.
The first teaser, posted on March 30, featured the Mona Lisa gently raising a hot cup of tea with her pinky finger lifted. The next video, uploaded the next day, showed an arcade claw machine labeled with the group’s name pulling a sword from a mix of sparkling plush toys and a single teacup. Making things even more intriguing, the caption stated: “We’re screaming from cloud nine!!”
Their third update finally revealed the song title along with its cover art. The image showed a figure kneeling on a rug next to a teacup and a toy cat, while the title appeared in bright hot pink text across the visual. The group also confirmed the release date as April 9.
Pinky Up will arrive just one day before KATSEYE appear at Coachella on April 10, which will mark their first time performing at the famous festival.
The single also marks their first comeback since HYBE and Geffen confirmed that member Manon Bannerman would be stepping away for a period of time to prioritize her “health and well being.”
In a message posted on Weverse, they shared: "Hello. After open and thoughtful conversations together, we are sharing that Manon will be taking a temporary hiatus from group activities to focus on her health and wellbeing."
The group expressed that they “fully support this decision,” and added: “KATSEYE remains committed to showing up for one another and for the fans who mean everything to us. We look forward to being together again when the time is right.”
While she is away, the group will continue promotions with Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza and Yoonchae Jeung.
They closed their message by saying: “Thank you to our EYEKONS for your continued love, patience, and understanding.”
