Earlier this month, the “WHATS POPPIN” rapper declared that he wouldn’t be offering a remix of his massive hit single “Lovin on Me.”
“No,” he said pretty straightforwardly when TMZ confronted him about the matter, before scurrying away and half-heartedly saying: “I gotta go.”

On February 12, Billboard reported that the track jumped from the second spot to No.1. on the Hot 100. It first topped the tally in December, followed by two weeks in January. The single from the Kentucky rapper, which was released late last year to critical acclaim, has already made history.
Earlier this month, he became the only rapper other than Drake to bag a top spot on the aforementioned list for four consecutive years. He previously secured the top spot for his feature on Lil Nas X’s “Industry Baby” in 2021, “First Class” in 2022, and “Lovin On Me” in 2023.
The rapper acknowledged the song as the beginning of a “new era” for his career as he wrote on X (formerly Twitter): “Thank u for allowing me to reset this year. I moved back to Kentucky and gave u an album I could not have made on the road.
“Surrounded by family & childhood friends this has been one of the happiest years of my life. But now… a new era begins.”

Built on a sample of R&B singer Delbert “Dale” Greer’s 1995 track “Whatever,” the blockbuster joint features him spitting playful, confident rhymes — including shoutouts to Rico Suave, Enrique Iglesias and Detroit rapper Skilla Baby — over a bouncy, club-friendly beat.
