Lil Yachty, once again, has been having another prolific year and this Sauce Walka collab is a strong highlight.

Lil Yachty and Sauce Walka are rekindling their brief history together on their now best effort to date, "Silver Lining." Over a soulful and nearly drum-less beat, the Southern hip-hop stars trade excellent verse after excellent verse. This is yet another song that can be tied to Lil Boat's resurgence as an MC, one that's been going on since 2023.

We have only seen his pen game go up during this stretch, with songs like "The Secret Recipe," "A Cold Sunday," "Strike," "Slide," and more. This another upper echelon performance from him, with this one having an emphasis on some funny one-liners and creative rhymes.

"Rubbing against me like a fire match / Everywhere we stepping leaving marks like a Monster Jam tire track." Sauce Walka is equally expressive on this track, particularly on his first verse. "But moving forward, this is a Royce / (Cullinan) / How I pay for it? Hun dundundunduns / Sweet D Willie, every Friday's a Honey Bun."

On the song, Yachty and Walka are highlighting the silver linings in life, whether that be when it comes to surviving in a rough situation, being affiliated with beautiful women, and more. It's broad sweeping in that regard, but it's a tight listen despite it being on the longer side.

Lil Yachty has yet to announce a new solo album, but he does have a second joint tape coming with his Concrete Boys group. He revealed plans for it in August after signing two new rappers to the squad.

Lil Yachty & Sauce Walka "Silver Lining"

Quotable Lyrics:

Stupid n****s never read the silver lining
Terms and conditions
All these worms in the trenches made us vicious
Have you ever washed your scale in the dishes?
Fought the police defenseless
Still a father to your kids while your baby momma trippin'

He's taken the previous experience and used it to become a jack of all trades at HotNewHipHop. Zach has thoroughly enjoyed tackling some of the trending topics in sports, with a larger focus on hip-hop and pop culture. Some of those include Bronny James's draft stock, a multitude of angles swirling around the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef, as well as Diddy's arrest and lawsuits. Separate from the headlines that everyone wants to hear about, he was fortunate enough to help spread Zaytoven's current thoughts at the time around mid-December in 2023. Even though being able to give his expertise on these stories is fulfilling, being able to share his passion for releases trumps that ever so slightly. Having the chance to express his excitement indirectly about what he thinks our readers should be checking out/revisiting grows his passion for writing that much more.
