Following his surprise appearance at EsDeeKid‘s sold-out Los Angeles debut show, multi-platinum artist Yeat has joined forces with the Liverpool rapper for “Made it On Our Own” – out now via Lyfestyle Corporation / Field Trip / Capitol Records. Stream “Made It On Our Own” HERE.
Produced by Lucid and BNYX® signee Mathaius Young, this long-awaited collaboration represents the meshing of two distinct regional superpowers: Yeat’s galactic rage rap meets EsDeeKid’s scouse style. The accompanying video–directed by the legendary Director X–was shot on site at Drake’s Toronto home, The Embassy, with cameos from long-time friends Caleb Williams and Cole Bennett. Watch official music video HERE.
For Yeat, the track arrives amid the rollout of his highly anticipated forthcoming album, ADL (A Dangerous Lyfe). Last week, commuters in New York City were met with Yeat’s arm hanging out of the back of a taxi—an ode to the infamous Sopranos marketing campaign—with a bumper sticker beside it reading “LYFE IS DANGEROUS”. On Tuesday, he continued the momentum by hosting Twizz City Night at the Portland Trail Blazers game, sitting courtside and handing out custom Yeat bobbleheads and Twizz City promo shirts. This rollout comes off the back of a run of singles and features, including a verse on Quavo’s “New Trip” (feat. BNYX®), “PIXELATED KISSES” (Remix) with Joji, and “Rendezvous” off Don Toliver’s #1 Billboard charting album OCTANE.
Yeat’s last album, the #1 Billboard 200 charting LYFESTYLE, launched in 2024 with a three-show run across New York, Los Angeles, and Portland, debuting at No. 1 with over 89K equivalent album units sold — marking his highest first-week sales and fifth top 10 debut in under three years following Lyfë (No. 10 in 2022), 2 Alivë (No. 6 in 2022), AftërLyfe (No. 4 in 2023), and 2093 (No. 2 in 2024). He continued that momentum into 2025, previewing “Feël no wayz (Yeat mix)” during his Coachella Sahara Stage set beneath a towering golden bell, releasing standout singles including “The Bell” and his feature on “Work” with Anyma, and completing a nine-city EU and UK tour capped by his first-ever London headline show, which The Guardian called a “ribcage-reverberating success”. His first and only EP of 2025, DANGEROUS SUMMER –with features from FKA twigs, Don Toliver, SahBabii, NGeeYL, and BNYX®– capped off his biggest summer yet, including a co-headlining performance with Don Toliver at Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash Festival, a gold certification for “COMË N GO”, a surprise appearance with Drake at Wireless Festival in London, drawing a 120K+ crowd at Romania’s Beach, Please! Festival, and closing out the three-day Clout Festival in Poland. Following this, Yeat linked with Drake and Julia Wolf for the single “Dog House”, and expanded his cultural footprint with his first Nike collaboration, the Nike Air Goadome Twizz, which coincided with a headlining “Yeat & Friends” set at ComplexCon Las Vegas featuring surprise appearances from Quavo, Lil Yachty, Don Toliver, Sexyy Red, xaviersobased, and Che.
Low-fi melodies, clever cutting lyrics, and a distinctly mysterious persona are all highlights that build up the enigma that is Yeat, one of the most interesting rises in music. The prolific rapper broke through in 2021 when his song “Gët Busy” began appearing in TikTok videos. The track became so ubiquitous that it caught the attention of heavyweight rappers, including Drake, Lil Uzi Vert, Gunna, and many more. As his fame skyrocketed, so did the mania surrounding the artist’s cult-like following which led to the shutdown of a show in Los Angeles at The Roxy. Now, with two headlining tours under his belt, four Billboard Top 10 Album Debuts, and over 8 billion global streams, the young talent is well on his way to superstardom. Yeat was born Noah Smith in 2000. He began releasing music around 2015, taking notes from Young Thug’s melodic strangeness and the inventive production styles of rappers who were rising to prominence as he grew up. He started out using the moniker Lil Yeat, but shortened it to Yeat in 2018. That year, he released his first mixtape, Deep Blue Strips. From then on, he was in hyperdrive. As his fame skyrocketed, Yeat released the mixtapes Alivë and 4L, and the Trëndi EP, before the release of his first proper studio album. Up 2 Më was issued in September 2021 followed by a second studio LP, 2 Alivë, in early 2022. Just last year, Yeat was tapped by superstar Drake to collaborate on record “IDGAF” which is featured on Drake’s album For All The Dogs. The song, which was an instant hit, debuted at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and #1 on the Billboard Global 200. Recently, Yeat’s LYFESTYLE reached #1 on the Billboard 200 chart selling 89K equivalent album units –– LYFESTYLE marked Yeat’s fourth entry into the Top 10 in only two years: Lyfë (No. 10 in 2022), 2 Alivë (No. 6 in 2022), AftërLyfe (No. 4 in 2023), 2093 (No. 2 in 2024) and now LYFESTYLE (No. 1 in 2024).
