the countermelody is more like beach boys "i get around" than the beatles

it's being used as the soundtrack to every 'mannequin challenge' video on the internet, which is some major viral shit.

The duo's single "Black Beatles" becomes the highest-charting Hot 100 title to name-check The Beatles, by an act other than the Fab Four themselves, as it rises 41-38,

it hit the top 40 like two weeks after they released the video

the song came out in the summer & now its november, feels like a while to me
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Monday, 7 November 2016 18:40 (seven years ago) link
it has steadily risen up the charts over the period of a couple months like pretty much any hit but you should ask mike will why he didn't release it as a single until late september
― J0rdan S., Monday, 7 November 2016 18:42 (seven years ago) link
amazed but so thrilled it's doing so well
would love for it to make the full pop crossover but not holding my breath
― dyl, Monday, 7 November 2016 18:43 (seven years ago) link
It sold almost twice as much digitally as any other song did today so I'd say a top 10 placement is pretty much inevitable at this point. http://www.digitalsalesdata.com/diydsd.php?Region=143441

wondering whether to see these guys when they come to play in Jan. Worried I might be the oldest person there by at least 20 years though... Does it matter?

I saw them last year and they were amazing. But yes you probably will be the oldest person there.

Gucci Mane is number one the week after Trump won the election. The universe is working hard to achieve the right balance at the moment.
