Rap trio Shayaa, Leland and Kiari dominate this week’s hotlist following the release of their new collaborative album ‘Without Warning’
It’s no secret that songwriters collaborate all the time, but Shayaa Abraham-Joseph (aka 21 Savage), Leland Wayne (aka Metro Boomin), and Kiari Cephus (aka Offset) have taken co-writing to the next level, and released a 10-track collaborative album. The album, titled Without Warning, closely follows the chart-topping collaboration between Future and Young Thug, Super Slimey.
This week, four songs from the album – Rap Saved Me, Ric Flair Drop, Ghostface Killers and My Choppa Hate N****s – hit the Billboard Hot 100, claiming the No 1 and No 7 positions for Shayaa and Leland, respectively.
