Song: 24hrs – “Superstar” ft. Ty Dolla $ign
The Helium-Pitched Atlanta Singer Connects with a Close Collaborator for a Raunchy New Single from the Upcoming 12 AM In Atlanta 2 Mixtape, Hosted by DJ Drama
Critical Praise:
“Without any context, 24hrs’ music is like listening to an alien who recently landed on Earth, heard some songs by Young Thug, Jeremih, and Rae Sremmurd, and started making his own. It draws from the current sounds in hip-hop and R&B, but there’s something slightly off about it, and this is what makes it so interesting.”- Pigeons & Planes
“Genre-defying” – The FADER
The Song:
Making his bones with a hyper-tuneful brand of melodic trap, 24hrs lives a rockstar lifestyle. Reveling in the perks of his chosen profession, 24hrs drops “Superstar,” a sex-positive new anthem. Crooning atop a candy-coated instrumental, Twenty opens up about the life of a superstar–a life filled with cars, jewels, pills, and plenty of sex: “I’m a superstar, I’m only wearing it once.” The new single finds Twenty trading bars with his frequent collaborator Ty Dolla $ign, who complements with his butter-smooth croon. “Superstar” is the latest single from 12 AM in Atlanta 2, 24hrs’ upcoming DJ Drama-hosted mixtape, following the DJ Marc B-produced “Selfies,“ which dropped earlier this month.
The long-awaited sequel to 24hrs’ popular 2017 mixtape 12 AM In Atlanta, also hosted by DJ Drama as part of his famed Gangsta Grillz series,12 AM In Atlanta 2 finds the artist updating the previous mixtape’s flex-heavy style to reflect the changes in his lifestyle–from striver to boss, from upstart to established figure on the Atlanta music scene. Featuring appearances from Wiz Khalifa, K CAMP, MadeinTYO, Kap G, Lil Scrappy, and others, 12 AM In Atlanta 2 arrives on April 10th via Private Club Records/Rostrum Records.
Late last year 24hrs shared the video for “911,” with Wiz Khalifa, which earned a behind-the-scenes look from Forbes. Last year, 24hrs and his Private Club Records entered a partnership with Rostrum Records and released World On Fire, an 11-track album with appearances from DMX, 24hrs’ brother MadeInTYO, and more.

The Background:
Formerly a rapper performing as Royce Rizzy, 24hrs found a new sound when he accidentally sped up one of his more melodic tracks, revealing a high-pitched and hooky new voice. Adopting the new vocal approach and shrouding his identity in mystery, 24hrs started to pick up momentum in 2016, earning praise from the likes of Pigeons & Planes and The FADER, and building a huge fanbase on SoundCloud. Since then, 24hrs developed a reputation for bright sonics, flashy lyrics, and endless hooks, winning a massive fan in Ty Dolla $ign and collaborating with the likes of Wiz Khalifa, Rick Ross, Young Thug, Wale, and Machine Gun Kelly, and growing his musical rapport with his brother MadeInTYO. In 2020, the artist is currently preparing to release 12 AM In Atlanta 2, a sequel to a 2017 DJ Drama-hosted mixtape. Stay tuned for the new project, coming April 10th via Private Club Records / Rostrum.
