Lil Pump performs onstage during the 2018 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival Weekend 1 at the Empire Polo Field on April 15, 2018 in Indio, California.

Lil Pump is gunning for the number one spot with his latest single.

Out of all of the Soundcloud rappers that have emerged within the past year, it's hard to deny that Lil Pump hasn't been one of the most successful products of the streaming platform. He's managed to score big with his recent record deal and has garnered co-signs from some of the game's biggest artist. While "Gucci Gang" managed to peak at number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, Lil Pump is aiming higher. His recent single, "ESKEETTIT" just debuted at number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 but he has faith it'll take the top spot on the charts.

Lil Pump had to flex on his haters after his latest single debuted at #20 on the Billboard Hot 100. Pump shared a video on his Instagram with wads of money as he's dripping in diamonds. "Bitch, we just debuted on Billboard. Number 20! "ESSKEEIT" now on Billboard! Bitch, we goin' up."

The rapper's latest flex comes shortly after J. Cole supposedly fired a shot at him "1985" off his new album, K.O.D. Pump later responded to J. Cole's alleged diss on Instagram shortly after and dismissed Cole for "dissing a 17-year-old." Shortly before that, the rapper also sent out some shots to his high school principal. "Fuck my old principal, you dumb ass bitch! Look at me now!" He said on Instagram.

Despite what anyone says about Pump, it's hard to deny that he's living his best life right now.
