4batz has finally dropped his debut mixtape U Made Me a St4r on Friday (May 3).
The mixtape features the previously released singles “Act I: Stickerz '99”, “Act II: Date @ 8”, “Act III: On God (She Like)” and “Act V: There Goes Another Vase”. Drake hopped on the remix for his viral smash “Act II: Date @ 8,” taking the track to No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also topped the Hot R&B Songs (chart dated March 23), ending a historic run for SZA, who reigned at the top of the chart for 53 weeks with four songs — “Kill Bill,” “Snooze,” Drake's “Slime You Out” (featuring SZA) and “Saturn.”
There are four more 'acts' in the play — 'Act IV: Fckin U (18+), 'Act VI: Crazy', 'Act VII: All We Do Is Fight, Fight' and 'Act VIII: I Hate to Be Alone” — as well as an intro (“Umademeast4r.mp3”), “Get Out Yo Feelings Ho” and a bonus track, “Ong? (she likes) remix” featuring Ye (formerly known as Kanye West).
4batz revealed the title of the debut project on his Advertising sign March R&B/Hip-Hop Rookie of the Month interview. “I remember listening to Aaliyah. [Sings] “Rock the boat, rock the boat.” And I throw gang signs. And I'm like, 'Why am I doing this?' Why does this yin-yang factor feel so good to me?' he said at the time to shock people online with his sound compared to his physical aesthetic. “I always have been [interested in] to do something that shouldn't seem like you should do it. I had a feeling he was going to do something. I didn't know he would do that!”
