Single: SG Tip – “So High”
The ATL Upstart Shares His Catchiest Hook Yet Over a Pressure-Cooker of a Beat from Kid Hazel (Lil Baby, 21 Savage) in the HipHopDX-Premiered Single
6.25.2018
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 Song:
With a quietly menacing demeanor and a penchant for flexing, SG Tip cuts an imposing figure on the ATL rap scene. Rocking a percussive duple meter flow, SG Tip relishes his life of luxury on “So High,” his latest single. Featuring a distinctive guitar-laden beat from Kid Hazel, the track shows Tip’s talent for crafting clever bars into an infectious hook: “I’m so high I could shit on a bird/I’m a rich n*gga, this a million dollar turd.” Premiered by HipHopDX, “So High” is the latest new single by SG Tip since the March release of Block Boy Tip, Tip’s sophomore mixtape. Brimming with headphone-ready trap production from Richie Souf, Trellgotwings, Tre Trax, J Rich, and more, Block Boy Tip is a catchy chronicle of Tip’s lightning quick come-up, featuring video singles such as the Complex-premiered “Lifestyle” and the icy video for “Mink Coat.” “So High” is the first in a new batch of material from the 21 Savage protégé, all leading up to a new album coming later this year.
An affiliate of 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 just months after exiting juvie, working with superstar producers like Metro Boomin and Pi’erre Bourne, releasing his surprise hit mixtape N*gga With Ambition (NWA) in 2017, and earning over 1 million plays on his video “No Brain.” Earlier this year, SG Tip shared “Push Up,” an addictive single with appearances from fellow rising stars Yung Bans and Smokepurpp. “With each passing release, SG Tip is proving that he spent that time away from home honing his craft,” praised Pigeons & Planes in their “Push Up” premiere, “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.”

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 release 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 the follow up tape Block Boy Tip arrived in March 2018.
