Rae Sremmurd's massive banger with Juicy J hits a major peak.

Rae Sremmurd are several weeks removed from the release of Sr3mm. The triple disc album was one of the most anticipated albums of the year especially since everyone was waiting to hear what both Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi had to offer on their solo endeavors. They delivered two dope solo efforts and another fire Rae Sremmurd project with Sr3mm. "Powerglide" served as the main single that helped build the anticipation for the project even higher. Now, it's reached platinum status.
