Black Beatles - Rae Sremmurd Feat Gucci Mane (#ad)
The Hip Hop duo, Rae Sremmurd came with a bang in the latter part of 2016 with their hit single “Black Beatles”. Released on the 13th of September 2016 the song reached the no.1 spot in six international charts, including the most acclaimed Billboard Hot 100 charts.
The song “Black Beatles” is an energetic Trap Hip Hop song which became an instant hit among the listeners. There is a rap portion in the song sung by rapper Gucci Mane, which he absolutely 'killed it'.
The singer Duo, Swan Lee and Slim Jxmmi debuted with an album Sremm Life in the year 2015. They released two songs from the album earlier in 2016 which could not create a rage among the listeners.
They needed a hit song badly to come with a bang. Producer of their album Mike Will held an emergency meeting, where he had some beats in mind. The technical Bass beats struck the chord with the duo and they came up with the theme of Rock Star lifestyle.
The duo always wanted to create such songs which are weird but gets accepted by the listeners. Most of Rae Sremmurd songs have all kind of weird references which are quite unusual and mostly used by heavy metal singers.
The song has so much of ebullient lyrics which have a constant melody. There is a lot of swag and sway in their style and attitude which can be seen while in the video song as well.
They are playing guitars, screaming in front of Crowd and give a damn to everything as if they are here just to rock the world.
There is a tinge of incompleteness in the chorus of the song, while Swae ended each of his lines in the low note. The most interesting part in the song was the echo of the words in a falsetto way which was quite inviting.
Not many know that this super-possessive beat of “Black Beatles” is very similar to NetFlix's horror-thriller-scifi web TV show Stranger Things theme song.
Mike Will roped in his rapper friend Gucci for the rap portion and it was his first collaboration with the Hip Hop duo. The recording of the song was interesting as the song was recorded in the studio ónly a few days before it's official release.
Also, Gucci was released from prison 2 or 3 days before the actual recording began. The success f this track has given a new lease of life to Gucci Mane's sagging musical career.
With 435 million YouTube views to date, the bare bodied singers with sun glasses and guitars was an instant hit among the YouTubers. Many fans called “Black Beatles” the best song or rather the best beat of 2016.
When compared with 2016's other Trap songs..which had fast-paced beats, “Black Beatles” had a weird, ticking rhythmic sinister beat which would eventually take control of the listeners mind, making them play the song again and again.
This is evident from the many YouTube comments for the song, where the YouTubers have commented that they just couldn't stop listening to the song.
“Black Beatles” became very popular among the teens and college students because of the Mannequin challenge - where a person stays motionless as the camera rolls.
Many Rae Sremmurd fans believed that every second of the “Black Beatles” music video posed a Mannequin challenge, when paused.
Billboard magazine has not credited the origin of Mannequin challenge to Rae Sremmurd even though they were the first to perform the #MannequinChallenge during their Novemeber 3rd 2016, Denver Live concert, 8 days after the original #MannequinChallenge video was posted on YouTube by the Edward White High Shool students in Jacksonville, Florida.
“Black Beatles” was a huge hit in the U.S, selling more than 1 million copies, outside States the song reached the Top 10 in 19 countries, including Scotland, Denmark, Ireland, Belgium, Slovakia, Finland, Netherlands, Spain, France, Australia, Norway, Sweden, Lebanon, Canada, Portugal, Switzerland, Germany and Czech Republic.

Intro: Swae Lee & Gucci Mane
Black beatles in the city be back immediately to confiscate the moneys
Rae Sremm, Guwop, Mike WiLL!
I sent flowers, but you said you didn’t receive ‘em
But you said you didn’t need them
Hook: Swae Lee
That girl is a real crowd pleaser
Small world, all her friends know me
Young bull livin’ like an old geezer
Release the cash, watch it fall slowly
Frat girls still tryna get even
Haters mad for whatever reason
Smoke in the air, binge drinkin’
They lose it when the DJ drops the needle
Verse 1: Swae Lee
Gettin’ so cold I’m not blinkin’
What in the world was I thinkin’?
New day, new money to be made
There is nothing to explain
I’m a fuckin black Beatle, cream seats in the Regal
Rockin John Lennon lenses like to see ‘em spread eagle
Took a bitch to the club and let her party on the table
Screamin’ “everybody’s famous”
Like clockwork, I blow it all
And get some more
Get you somebody that can do both
Black Beatles got the babes belly rolling
She think she love me
I think she trollin’
Hook: Swae Lee
That girl is a real crowd pleaser
Small world, all her friends know me
Young bull livin’ like an old geezer
Release the cash, watch it fall slowly
Frat girls still tryna get even
Haters mad for whatever reason
Smoke in the air, binge drinkin’
They lose it when the DJ drops the needle
Verse 2: Gucci Mane
Came in with two girls, look like strippers in their real clothes
A broke hoe can only point me to a rich hoe
A yellow bitch with green hair, a real weirdo
Black man, yellow Lamb’, real life goals
They seen that Guwop and them just came in through the side door
There’s so much money on the floor we buyin school clothes
Watch me break the money machine till her clothes fall
Pint of lean, pound of weed, and a kilo
I eurostep past a hater like I’m Rondo
I upgrade your baby mama to a condo
My Chapos servin’ yayo to the gringos
Black Beatle, club close when I say so
Hook: Swae Lee
That girl is a real crowd pleaser
Small world, all her friends know me
Young bull livin’ like an old geezer
Release the cash, watch it fall slowly
Frat girls still tryna get even
Haters mad for whatever reason
Smoke in the air, binge drinkin’
They lose it when the DJ drops the needle
Verse 3: Slim Jxmmi
She’s a good teaser, and we blowin’ reefer
Your body like a work of art, baby
Don’t fuck with me, I’ll break your heart, baby
Slim Jxmmi, I got a lot of flavor
15 hundred on my feet, I’m tryna kill these haters
I had haters when I was broke, I’m rich, I still got haters
I had hoes when I was broke, I’m rich, I’m still a player
I wear leather Gucci jackets like its still the 80’s
I’ve been blowin’ OG Kush, I feel a lil’ sedated
I can’t worry about a broke nigga or a hater
Black Beatle, bitch, me and Paul McCartney related
Hook: Swae Lee
That girl is a real crowd pleaser
Small world, all her friends know me
Young bull livin’ like an old geezer
Release the cash, watch it fall slowly
Frat girls still tryna get even
Haters mad for whatever reason
Smoke in the air, binge drinkin’
They lose it when the DJ drops the needle
