"BBL Drizzy" (released as "BBL DRIZZY BPM 150.mp3") is an instrumental diss track by American record producer Metro Boomin. The track was released on May 5, 2024 dissing Drake in response to the Drake–Kendrick Lamar feud which consisted of multiple diss tracks from both sides. It samples a track, released on April 14th, of the same name by comedian King Willonius.[1] It is the first notable example of AI sampling in mainstream hip-hop music, according to Billboard.[2]
Metro announced he would offer a free beat and a $10,000 cash prize to whoever delivered the best rap over the backing track in an effort to deride hip hop artist Drake.[3] The song's title alludes to a rumor that Drake received a Brazilian butt lift, which is known as a "BBL" in modern slang.[4]
"BBL Drizzy" quickly went viral, generating more than 3.3 million streams on SoundCloud within a week.[citation needed]
