Metro Boomin

Young Thug

<a href="/profile/MetroBoomin" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Metro Boomin</a> detailed his process for working with <a href="/profile/youngthug" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Young Thug</a> during a recent appearance on the Full Send Podcast. The <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/608595-metro-boomin-heroes-and-villains-album-review" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Heroes &amp; Villains</a> producer says they would take new records to local clubs to observe the reactions.



“Man, me and [Young] Thug used to do songs and like, soon as we get done doing it, like this is when we still had CDs, I would burn a CD on the computer and we would go to the club and would take it to the DJ like, ‘Yo, let’s go hear this and see what’s going on,&#8217;” Metro Boomin said. &#8220;And watch everybody’s reaction, you know, vibe out, throw some money and get everybody hype.”

Two collaborations with Young Thug ended up on Metro Boomin&#8217;s new album, Heros &amp; Villians. They include the <a href="/profile/TravisScott" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Travis Scott</a>-assisted, “Trance,&#8221; and “Metro Spider.” The album peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 while moving 185,000 album-equivalent units in its first week.



While their two new tracks are out now, Young Thug and Metro Boomin weren&#8217;t able to do their usual process of testing them out. Thug is currently awaiting trial for a RICO case that is set to begin next month. His YSL partner, <a href="/tags/gunna" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Gunna</a>, agreed to a plea deal with the prosecution, last week. He&#8217;s since been released from jail.



Looking ahead, Metro Boomin is set to contribute to the soundtrack to the highly anticipated film, <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/607590-air-jordan-1-across-the-spider-verse-best-look-yet">Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse</a>. He confirmed the news in a post on Instagram, last week. The movie will hit theaters on June 2, 2023.
