21 Savage is one of the rare rappers to have made this list.
A major recognition for the rapper.
Last Wednesday, April 17, the magazine Time released its famous list of the 100 most influential people of the year and 21 Savage is one of them. A superb recognition for the rapper that one of his colleagues, Burna Boy, was quick to congratulate. He notably spoke about the impact of 21 Savage over the past year, calling its success a “outstanding”.
“I trust my instincts when it comes to my music and collaborations, and I feel naturally drawn to artists like 21 Savage. Those who stay grounded in their beliefs and constantly defy the constraints placed on them His approach to rap is refreshing and authentic; he speaks to us in an understandable way, navigating the complexities of the genre effortlessly, whether he’s tackling heavy topics or offering moments of levity, his delivery remains compelling. “
21 Savage joins a very exclusive club of other legendary rappers, such as Jay-Z, Kanye West and Will Smith, who have all been featured on the list. The one who was with Drake on tour last year started 2024 very well with his new album, “American Dream”, in January, which reached first place on the Billboard 200 with 133,000 sales in the first week.
