BET Hip Hop Weekend Update: Yo Gotti stops traffic on Atlanta street near Magic City (NSFW)

On Thursday, Oct. 8, Yo Gotti hosted The Art of Hustle sneak peek day party at Magic City in Atlanta. The stripper soirée and supper was held in conjunction with pre-BET Hip Hop Awards and A3C Hip Hop Festival.

Gotti and his CMG crew made a grand arrival leading a caravan of exotic cars candy painted robin’s egg blue – a Lamborghini, Aston Martin and Bentley. Passersby, including a driver of a packed Greyhound bus, were hitting their brakes to see who emerged from the whips.

Yo Gotti’s new album, The Art of Hustle, is dropping next month. Hailing from Memphis nearly 20 years ago, Gotti established his street cred when he released his debut album, Youngsta’s on a Come Up (1996). 

Today, he has his own imprint under Epic, Collective Music Group (CMG), which promises to offer entertaining and authentic wordplay that chronicles his life and being raised by female hustlers, six of his aunts served time in federal prison.

He worked with producers Drumma Boy, Cool & Dre, Metro Boomin and DJ Mustard to create sure-to-be bangers “Mama” and “Errrbody,” which teatures Atlanta’s own Ludacris as well as Lil Wayne.
