About Lil Freaky:

Lil Freaky was born and raised on the west side of Atlanta, GA.

Merging the lyrical/emotional mindset of Nas and entrepreneurial mindset of Big Meech, Lil Freaky took to the mic with one thing on his mind, MONEY!!!

In 2016, he launched his #Dripset campaign which was the catalyst for his name switch to “Drip Set Freaky”. In early 2017 Drip Set earned the #9 spot on DJ Pack’s Top 20 Hottest Hip Hop and R&B Records, and also caught the eye of fellow Atlanta Rapper Future — who’s featured on his single “Drip Set” and has since become his mentor/ big brother. His content sheds light on the struggles of the street life,while pushing people to want better for themselves. He represents the opportunity to make it out of a struggle that most aren’t able to overcome. In the words of his favorite poet, Egdar Albert Guest, he keeps his “eyes front” and “head high” to the finish to see his dreams through.

About Yung Booke:

Atlanta rapper who signed with T.I.’s label Hustle Gang. He joined two other Hustle Gang artists in forming the group D.O.P.E. Their song “Harry Potter” was featured on T.I.’s 2012 mixtape.

Yung Booke was a local rapper whose performances caught the attention of T.I., who was, at the time, serving an 11-month jail sentence. When T.I. was released, he signed the young rapper to his label.

Along with being signed to his label, Yung Booke has collaborated on songs with T.I.
