Talk about making moves, Desiigner has just been named the first NY rapper since Jay-Z to top the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Since the year 2000, there has only been six NYC rappers to hit that top spot on the chart with a lead artist. It had not been done before since today since Jay-Z’s ‘Empire State of Mind’ hit the chart in 2009.
Desiigner is killing the game right now, we cant even lie. If you think about it, the video for the single isn’t even out yet. This is just the track.
Congrats to Desiigner.
