Rylo Rodriguez has discovered a new form to use while bowling and it somehow worked out for the 4PF rapper.
Footage emerged earlier this week of Rylo at the lanes and he delivered what looks like more of a running two-handed chest pass straight out of basketball. However, his unorthodox approach paid off as the bowling ball went right down the middle for a strike.
“Oh my God, man. This n-gga cheating!” one of Rodriguez’s friends said while looking on in amazement at what just took place as Rylo cracked a smile.
Watch the clip below.
Fans on social media were both stunned and impressed by Rylo Rodriguez for somehow bowling the most unorthodox strike they’ve ever seen.
“If it aint broke dont fix it – John Cena,” one person joked, while another mocked Rylo’s form by writing: “Bro bowling like he’s 6 years old lmaoooo.”
It’s unclear what score Rylo finished with, but at least the one clip making the rounds on social media saw him bowl a strike.
The Mobile, Alabama native previously went viral last month with another unintentionally hilarious moment as Lil Baby clowned him for not knowing what the acronym “G.O.A.T.” meant.
“I swear to God I ain’t know that before,” Rylo responded. “I just thought you the goat … I used to always think that like, ‘What the hell’s a goat?’ Nah, I get it now. One day I was like, ‘Man, why you wanna be a goat?’”
What made Rylo Rodriguez’s confession even wilder is the fact that he incorporated G.O.A.T. into the title of his 2020 album G.I.H.F., short for Goat In Human Form.
Unsurprisingly, Rylo took the term literally as the cover art featured an actual goat staring back at him in the reflection of a mirror.
More recently, the 29-year-old delivered his Been One album in June with features from Lil Baby, Lil Yachty, EST Gee and more.

There’s a high probability that Jorja Smith has new music coming this summer. The British singer revealed plans for her What Are the Odds LP on Thursday (July 2), with the album set to arrive on Aug. 21 via FAMM.
Smith reunites with producer P2J — who served as a primary collaborator on her 2023 album Falling or Flying — for the entirety of the project. J Money and P2J will continue to build on the inventive U.K. garage sound Smith has been exploring, alongside a mix of grime and house.
“This album came together really naturally. There was never a big plan; it was just me making music that felt right in the moment,” Smith tells Billboard. “Working with P2J, we started experimenting with different sounds, pulling from U.K. garage, grime and house (funky house, Afro house) and it all grew from there.”
She continues: “The music feels uplifting, but the lyrics can be a bit sad at times. They’re about growing up, love, loss, friendships and figuring things out as I go. I trusted my instincts with this one, and I think you can hear that throughout the record.”
Smith kicked off the album’s rollout in May with the self-assuring “What’s Done Is Done,” and it continues on Thursday (July 2) with a second single, “Alive,” which finds the R&B singer joining forces with Afrobeats pioneer WizKid. The duo basks in the love-drunk euphoria of the honeymoon phase of a bubbling relationship and heads to Paris for the visual.
“Making this with P2J and WizKid felt really easy,” Smith adds of the collab. “We wrote and recorded it together in London. I think we captured that feeling when you’re at the beginning of something with someone and everything feels exciting. I’ve always loved WizKid’s music and the way he’s opened so many doors for Afrobeats around the world, so it feels really special and a big honor to have a song with him.”
What Are the Odds serves as Jorja Smith’s third studio album and contains 12 tracks. Outside of WizKid, the only other feature comes from grime artist Devlin.
When the project lands on Aug. 21, Smith will hit the stage later that night at London’s All Points East, as she’ll be co-headlining the Victoria Park show with Tems. 2026 has already been a busy year for J Money, who served as a musical guest on the debut season of Saturday Night Live UK in April.
The 29-year-old also collaborated with Mobb Deep’s Havoc for a remix of her “Blue Lights” classic and lent “Price of It All” to Amazon MGM Studios’ Bait soundtrack.
