Lil Yachty just dropped a slew of new songs on SoundCloud, and among them is a new collaboration with 21 Savage.
During a late night rollout on a SoundCloud page named ‘Concrete Leak System,’ the Atlanta hitmaker released 14 new cuts — a highlight of the package is the aforementioned crossover, “Part of the Plan,” as well as a collab with Vory.

Lil Boat later confirmed these are part of an official release (as opposed to a leak) in a post on X (formerly Twitter.)

Over the weekend, Lil Yachty came under fire for hitting the studio with viral rapper Ian after criticizing the state of Hip Hop.
The 26-year-old made waves when a video surfaced on social media showing him in the lab with the divisive rapper.
While the audio had been hilariously edited with the theme song from Jeopardy!, it appeared as though the pair were working on music together.
The link-up didn’t sit well with fans, with some accusing Yachty of being a hypocrite given his recent comments about Hip Hop’s perceived lack of creativity and originality.

One user even shared the following 2023 quote by the rapper to illustrate the point: “Hip Hop is in a terrible place. The state of Hip Hop right now is a lot of imitation. It’s a lot of quick, low-quality music being put out.
“It’s a lot less risk-taking, it’s a lot less originality… People are too safe now. Everyone is so safe. I’d rather take the risk than take the L.”

Another added: “Nvm I don’t rly fw him no more. This n-gga said Hip Hop is in a terrible state and then went to do a song with a fucking colonizer [three crying emojis] we’re cooked.”
A third critic said: “lmfaoo yall ain’t got no dignity man it’s so sad to see.”

A 19-year-old rapper who emerged from Dallas, Ian has been blowing up of late thanks to his viral hit “Figure It Out.” The song encapsulates the jarring juxtaposition that has made him such a polarizing figure: an unapologetically suburban white kid rapping about money, cars and drugs in the style of Yeat, Playboi Carti and Gucci Mane.
Lil Yachty has yet to respond to the backlash over his studio session with the internet sensation.
