LiAngelo Ball’s latest track, “Tweaker,” is making waves, drawing notable attention from Southern rap icons Boosie Badazz and Moneybagg Yo. Both artists have taken to social media, expressing their enthusiasm to collaborate on a remix.
It was on a regular Tuesday when Southern rappers Boosie Badazz and Moneybagg Yo expressed their desire to feature on LiAngelo Ball’s viral song “Tweaker.” They took to X, indicating their readiness to jump on the remix as soon as possible. Moneybagg Yo shared, “Send me da open verse ima tweak,” while Boosie eagerly wrote, “Send da verse.” Their interest highlights the song’s growing influence in the hip-hop community.
Meanwhile, “Tweaker” has been winning fans for its nostalgic appeal, reminiscent of the early 2000s Cash Money era. The song’s vibe has earned praise from rap legend DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia, who mentioned its likeness to the style of producers Mannie Fresh and Juvenile. DJ Paul noted to TMZ, “When I heard that song, the first thing that came to my mind was some Mannie Fresh/Juvenile.”
Adding to the song’s intrigue, “Tweaker” credits LiAngelo’s brother, Lonzo Ball, as a writer, although he humorously clarified that his contribution mainly involved the cover art. Lonzo posted, “Only credit I deserve is the cover art lol G really that! #YearOfG.”
The track, which debuted on streaming platforms on January 3, has already achieved viral status. Its online fame took off after LiAngelo played it on Neon’s stream, sparking memories of the Cash Money and Hot Boys era among fans.
In an interesting twist, LiAngelo has been in the headlines not just for his music but also for past spats with rapper-turned-analyst Cam’ron. The tension arose when Cam’ron mocked LiAngelo’s basketball career, implying he wasn’t NBA material. LiAngelo, who has played in the NBA’s development league and internationally, responded forcefully on his podcast, “What an Experience.” He reminded Cam, “You don’t know my story like that. I’m out here hooping.”
Cam’ron, not one to back down, fired back on his show, insisting he only knew of LiAngelo because of his father’s promotional prowess. The exchange underscores the challenges LiAngelo faces in carving out his own identity separate from his family.
With the buzz surrounding “Tweaker,” LiAngelo Ball is proving he’s a notable force in the music scene. As anticipation builds for a remix, fans are eager to see how collaborations with Boosie Badazz and Moneybagg Yo might elevate the track. LiAngelo’s journey, filled with music and basketball narratives, continues to captivate audiences.
