Sam LevitonLouisville rapper EST Gee earns his first-career entry on the Billboard Hot 100 song chart for assisting on Lil Baby‘s “Real As It Gets.”
The track was released earlier this month, placing at the #34 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 this week and #15 on Rolling Stone‘s Top 100 songs last week.
As a Grammy-nominated rapper working toward legendary status, Lil Baby made a bold declaration, comparing Gee to one of Atlanta’s first trap legends. “EST Gee is the new Young Jeezy,” Baby tweeted Sunday.
After releasing tracks like “Through the City” and “El Toro,” EST Gee secured a deal with Yo Gotti‘s Collective Music Group, following the December release of his debut album, I Still Don’t Feel Nun. The 16-track effort features Gotti, Kevin Gates, and CMG label mates MoneyBagg
