LUCKI Celebrates FLAWLESS LIKE ME’s Top 15 Debut, Shares “13” Video

Published

on

After steadily building a rabid fanbase over the course of nearly a decade, LUCKI is finally ready for mainstream recognition. His debut on the Billboard 200 chart shows just how big the cult of LUCKI has grown–his album FLAWLESS LIKE ME debuted at #12 on the chart, with over 25k sales-equivalent units in its first week.

To celebrate the album’s stellar debut week, LUCKI shares 13,” a brand new music video. Produced by frequent collaborator BrentRambo, “13” is a brightly-colored flexer’s anthem, as LUCKI speaks on his collection of high-powered luxury vehicles and compares himself to James Harden, who wore #13 during his time with the Houston Rockets. Shot in crisp black & white, the new video for “13” finds the young rapper living it up in New York City in the lead-up to last month’s Rolling Loud New York. During his NYC trip, LUCKI dined in fine restaurants, explored subway tunnels, and drew a crowd of thousands to the city streets for his album release party in SoHo.

“13” follows the Cole Bennett-directed video for COINCIDENCE” as the latest video from FLAWLESS LIKE ME. Accompanied by carnival-esque, blissful synth melodies that provide a counterpoint to LUCKI’s purr, the fast-rising rapper paints a surreal portrait of his semi-charmed life–LUCKI swerves in his souped-up foreign in one bar, before bemoaning a lost love or wistfully recounting his struggles with drug addiction. For the first time ever, LUCKI rolls out the red carpet for guest rappers–on “KAPITOL DENIM” ft.Future, LUCKI goes toe-to-toe with Pluto himself, and he trades twisting verses with Babyface Ray in the woozy and hard-hitting “WHITE HOUSE.” Boasting a laundry list of talented producers including Tay KeithBobby Raps, Hurtboy, BhristoCash Cobain, and more, FLAWLESS LIKE ME is available everywhere via EMPIRE.

FLAWLESS LIKE ME continues a busy year for the 26-year-old underground hero, marked by sold out shows, festival performances, and 350 million on-demand streams in 2022 alone.The new album arrives in the wake of a string of successful singles, most notably SUPER URUS,” which generated over 15 million Spotify streams and 3.5 million YouTube views to date, and triumphant fan favorite Y NOT?” (3.1 million YouTube views). Both “SUPER URUS” and “Y NOT?” appear on FLAWLESS LIKE ME as bonus tracks.

In August, LUCKI connected with Internet Money for “2K In The Soda,” a woozy new banger from their new EP. LUCKI embarked on a fast-selling tour in the spring, and shut it down this summer with performances at festivals like Rolling LoudLyrical Lemonade’s Summer SmashSo What!, and Rolling Loud Portugal. The new album FLAWLESS LIKE ME follows up WAKE UP LUCKI, the artist’s late-2021 project, a full collaboration with Working On Dying producer F1LTHY.

With his new album making a splash and a legion of devoted fans awaiting his every move, it’s only a matter of time before LUCKI takes over the game.

In the realm of Hip Hop music emerging stars we have JimEMacLive and Ralo tha Pimp. JimEMacLive links up with Ralo tha Pimp to release the smash single “Choose”. ℗Hip-hop has long been rooted in authenticity, and it’s hard to find someone who puts his sweat & tears into the genre like JimEMacLIVE.

Helping her clean the house to the sounds of Al Hudson, and discovering music from the likes of E40 & 2 Pac helped shape his musical taste from an early age. When he decided to start crafting his own sound during his teenage years, while the skillset was unpolished, his unwavering determination & versatility were as present as ever. When darkness surrounds his city, JimEMacLIVE wants to be that ray of light piercing through the veil. “This is my therapy. Love, gratitude, determination; you can overcome any & all obstacles that come before you as long as you believe.” Make sure you listen to JimEMacLive feat.
