Critical Praise:
“With each passing release, SG Tip is proving that he spent that time away from home honing his craft—he’s a talented rapper with a good ear for production and curation. Block Boy Tip could be a breakout moment for a young artist who has hit the ground running.” – Pigeons & Planes
The Announcement:
With a more energetic twist on his mentor 21 Savage‘s menacing nonchalance, ATL rapper SG Tip is making moves to the top of the game. Following up his surprise hit N*gga With Ambition (NWA), SG Tip announces Block Boy Tip, his upcoming mixtape. Packed with low-key, street-savvy bangers, Block Boy Tip is a catchy chronicle of Tip’s lightning quick come-up. With production from Trellgotwings, Tre Trax, J Rich, DJ Marc B (21 Savage’s Official DJ), Block Boy Tip releases on March 28th.
Affiliated with the 21 Savage’s Slaughter Gang since age 11, SG Tip’s career hit a speed bump when legal problems landed him in juvenile hall for his last years of high school. Now 18, Tip is on the fast track to stardom, touring with 21 Savage within months of exiting juvie, working with superstar producers like Metro Boomin and Pi’erre Bourne, and earning over 1 million plays on his video “No Brain.”
Today, SG Tip shares “Push Up,” a hypnotic banger bursting with off-kilter charisma and infectious ad-libs. Featuring appearances from Smokepurpp, who supplies the hook, and Yung Bans, who lends the track an airy melody in his anchor verse, “Push Up” is a testament to SG Tip’s songwriting ability and burgeoning influence on the ATL scene. Premiered by Pigeons & Planes, who praised the track saying, “Purpp comes through with an off-kilter earworm of a hook, and Bans closes things out with a breathy, barely-there verse that takes the track in a whole new direction,” “Push Up” is a brilliant first look at Block Boy Tip.

The Background:
SG Tip is a new rapper that hails from East Atlanta, Georgia. He has very close ties to Slaughter Gang and PDE, dating back to when he was 11 to 12 years old. At the age of 15, Tip had several legal issues which landed him in juvenile hall and caused him to miss his latter years of high school. After his releaserelease from juvie, Tip hit the road with 21 Savage and started to soak up game from the rising rapper. Less than one year ago, after coming off tour with 21, Tip began his career as an artist and has since quickly gained a following with great expectations for his upcoming music. His debut mixtape, NWA, a collaboration project with Tip and Pierre Bourne, dropped in October 2017. Accompanying NWA were visuals “Looking For Me“, ”Gangland” and a single “No Brains“ produced by Metro Boomin. NWA laid the foundation for Tip’s career and his follow up Block Boy Tip is looking to make big waves upon its release March 2018.
