Leading up to a headline show at O2 Forum on 20th June, multi platinum hip-hop phenomenon Yung Gravy returns with “Betty (Get Money)” accompanied by a pleasantly nostalgic and feel-good music video.
“Betty (Get Money)” pops off as a generation-bridging banger of the highest order produced by Dillon Francis, Dwilly, and Popnick. On the track, Gravy reignites the classic chorus of Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up” (and its iconic synths). In between, he ignites one clever and catchy bar after another until he turns up on the hook, “Never take a L no more, never take a damn thing slow, all I know is chase this dough and get money.” Directed by Adriaan Kirchner, the 80’s inspired music video finds Gravy surrounded by beautiful synchronized dancers in elaborate settings as he dons fresh white suiting, a fur coat, and hard bottom shoes.
About the single, he commented, “With every project I’ve done, I’ve always had a continuing narrative with MILF names. This is like the eighth name. ‘Betty’ is a dope one. It’s inspired by Betty White, RIP. I reserved the title for one of my favorite songs.”
It paves the way for much more music to come from Gravy very soon. This year alone, Gravy has only accelerated his meteoric rise. He co-headlined a massive tour with Dillon Francis and unleashed the Cake & Cognac EP. Additionally, he played to packed arenas with the legendary Limp Bizkit. He has also churned out a series of RIAA certified platinum and gold bangers thus far. These include the platinum “Mr. Clean,” platinum “1 Thot 2 Thot Red Thot Blue Thot,” gold “oops!!!,” gold “Magic” and gold “Whip A Tesla” with bbno$.
