The ATL Street Hero Flashes His Cash and His Bright Smile in the Video for “Anxious”
The MPA Bandcamp CEO Readies the Sequel To His Fan Favorite 2016 Mixtape As He Prepares For a Busy 2021
Critical Praise for Artist Name:
“Peewee Longway is one of hip-hop’s secret weapons.” – XXL
“His topic is usually trapping, but that singular scope allows him to be one of Atlanta’s most consistent rappers on the subject.” – Pitchfork
“As a sheer vocal stylist, Longway is an absolutely incredible rapper, one capable of finding five different cadences on one spacey beat and then trying them all out in the space of a single verse.” – Stereogum
The Announcement:
Known for his bottomless arsenals of tongue-twisting flows, Peewee Longway commands respect in ATL and beyond. Teaming up with trap maestro Cassius Jay for a full-length project, Peewee announces Longway Sinatra 2, hitting the internet in January 2021 via MPA Bandcamp/EMPIRE. The sequel to a beloved 2016 mixtape, Longway Sinatra 2 rekindles the chemistry between Peewee and Cassius Jay, the rapper navigating the producer’s percolating synths and swelling organs with a constantly mutating patter.
Spanning 17 tracks, the project reaffirms Peewee’s status as a one-of-a-kind trap original, flashing the nimble verbosity and witty lyricism that endears the rapper to his fans and earns the recognition of compadres like Gucci Mane and Young Thug. Featuring appearances from Lil Baby, Lil Yachty, Blac Youngsta, Tee Grizzley, Hoodrich Pablo Juan, Jazze Pha, and more, Longway Sinatra arrives on January 22nd and is currently available for pre-order/pre-save.
Along with the announcement of the mixtape, Peewee shares “Anxious,” the project’s first video single. An uptempo, Cassius Jay-produced trap track that reverberates with a Mannie Fresh-esque bounce, “Anxious” is a relentless head-nodder, as Peewee twirls a tapestry of disrespectful flexes and drawly rhymes. In the video, Peewee struts his stuff in an abandoned warehouse, flashing his cash and his toothy grin as he energetically recites the lyrics.
Peewee Longway has been laying low in 2020, plotting his next move towards the top of the rap game. In Late 2019, Peewee connected with fellow ATL rapper Money Man for Long Money, a full-length collaborative project. Dominated by textured, rippling production by Cassius Jay, the project finds the two artists finding common ground, waxing poetic with melodic plug talk and celebrating their triumphs over adversity. Last year, Peewee also shared The Blue M&M 4, an extension of his long-running mixtape series, which featured appearances from Quavo and Key Glock. Stay tuned for much more from Master Peewee in the coming weeks.
