Jack Harlow got the opportunity of a lifetime when he linked up with New Orleans legend Lil Wayne for the remix to the Louisville star’s breakout single “WHATS POPPIN” last year. The record peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and pushed Harlow into the spotlight.
Harlow is looking to achieve that same success with another legendary collaboration. During a visit to the Big Facts podcast with Big Bank and DJ Scream, Harlow revealed his rap influences were Drake, André 3000, Lil Wayne, Eminem and JAY-Z before saying he has a record on the way with one of those artists he named.
“One other one is coming right up,” Jack Harlow said before DJ Scream repeated the exact words. “One other I listed is coming right up.”
DJ Drama slyly said he knew nothing about the upcoming song, but Harlow gave him away when he revealed the iconic mixtape DJ set up the collaboration as he did with Wayne. DJ Scream then asked if the collab was with Drake or Eminem and if Harlow had spoken to all the people he mentioned. Harlow kept a tight lip on revealing who the song was with but spoke on who he’s met from that list.
“Out of the five I listed, I’ve talked to three, worked with one, about to work with the second one, but I’ve had convos,” Harlow said.
Jack Harlow has been getting a lot of love from fans and his label Generation Now. During an interview with The Breakfast Club last week, label founders DJ Drama, Don Cannon and Lake Sheezy tipped their hats to Jack Harlow for holding it down while his labelmate Lil Uzi Vert was going through issues with his label regarding the release of his music.
“Jack was evolving as an artist, and he was very outspoken,” Drama said. “When people were coming at us, Jack was like ‘These are my guys, and I wear the Generation Now flag proudly. I definitely have to salute him because when we looked crazy in public, he really stood next to us and was like these are my guys.”

I’d like eminem but I think drake. Harlow has been poppin to much for drake not to bring his trend riding surfboard his way lol.
Drake’s not doing features around “album time” his label wouldn’t even allow it but the average fan doesn’t get the concept of that process.
I don‘t think a label can tell Drake shit at this point lol
Industry runs them artists their puppets
Yea drake certainly has weight to throw around, but ultimately his check is cut by execs.
Not entirely true. He did do the features for Yung Blue, Drakeo the Ruler, Weezy and Khaled over the past year.
This comment section is a joke
I think it’s Post Malone. Why give the obvious when you got a bullet in the chamber? All those artists are cool, but in a legendary mind set, why reveal the goose with the golden egg when you could tease with the chickens? Do you Jack. Malone gonna take you to the top homie!!!
It’s probably 6ix9ine
It’s either Drake or possibly 3 Stacks. Drake liked his tweet of him rapping as a kid so that one could be a huge possibility. Andre tends to hop on a newcomer’s track here and there, so there’s that. Eminem and Jay have their heads too far up their own asses to be featured on a new artist’s song nowadays.
It’s gonna be Carmen Elektra.
I need to trim my pubes. They are getting out of control
It’s prob drake. Because the other rappers are real enough to not make music with this fraud
I really don’t get how this Euro got on but hiphop or should I say rap is so corporate and commercial now. We should of NEVER let these ppl in our culture. How is this guy even a trending topic or skilled enough to even be considered to be rapping with 3000 or Jay Z. He must be the son of one of these Devils diluting and white washing our shit. Maybe someone owe his papa a favor bc this is ridiculous I heard the what’s poppen single; dudes voice and flow was boring and lazy. Of all the actually talented Black ppl really rapping and making music how is he even here?? How did we get here as a culture smh
Ur mistake is thinking the mainstream is “yours”. You don’t have to associate hip-hop culture with these new manufactured stars, but you just did, and the industry loves it. Eminem was a sign that there was more to come, the difference with eminem is he was clear about what was happening and always respected hip-hops roots. Now the industry can use hip-hops likeness to sell artists for short cycles of time. Rap can exist in the mainstream but if you keep looking for a true reflection of hiphop in popular culture, you will be forever searching. Hiphop is right where it always was.
Not gna lie and I’m sure Harlow is decent not my cup of tea but if he gets 3 stacks or a Jay verse he might be a plant..I Lowkey want to say Eminem too ..I haven’t even seen Em collab with other white rappers
Industry plants arent real
You literally can see his career from the bottom up
I thought 3k was Retired. It ether drizzy or eminem. jack is dope. He can spit
Yall hating hard asf
