Lil Yachty Teases Unreleased Nike Air Force 1s in 'I need meds' MV
Summary Lil Yachtyhas just revealed 'i need meds' track with a music video. Though brief in runtime, the track signals a notable shift in the rapper's style. Pairing a deep-toned vocal delivery with bleak lyrical undercurrents, complete with sharp visual presentation, 'i need meds' is already sparking conversation across platforms. Within the first few seconds of the video, Yachty gives viewers a close-up look at a black and red pair of'Concrete Boys'Nike Air Force 1s— a colorway that has not been released or officially announced. The placement feels intentional as it could be a teaser to the next phase of his Nike collaboration, while also potentially hinting at an expansion of the Concrete Boys series. As with much of Yachty's creative output, the moment blurs the line between music and brand — even in a sub-two-minute track, he makes space for visual storytelling and fashion-driven cues. Sonically, the track leans trap-heavy, signaling a shift from the genre-blurring psychedelia ofLet's Start Here., his critically acclaimed 2023 album. While some fans continue to hope for a return to that experimental sound, others are embracing the rawer, more grounded tone of 'i need meds,' seeing it as a stylistic breadcrumb for what's to come. Fans have begun decoding the track's meaning and structure — with some calling it a spiritual successor to 2022's viral hit 'Poland.' Like that release, 'i need meds' is emotionally blunt, sonically minimal and optimized for short-form virality. Whether or not it's part of a larger rollout remains to be seen, but the track's ambiguity and visual sharpness suggest there's more on the horizon. With fan discussion heating up and visuals hinting at something deeper, 'i need meds' could mark the start of a new chapter — one where Lil Yachty trades in the technicolor chaos for something colder, quieter, and more emotionally cutthroat. Check out the full video for 'i need meds' above, and stay tuned for its official streaming release.

Lil Yachty Slams Black Lives Matter Organization: ‘BLM Is a Scam'
Lil Yachty didn't hold back when asked about his thoughts on the Black Lives Matter organization. The Atlanta rapper slammed BLM during an appearance on Quenlin Blackwell's Feeding Starving Celebrities cooking series earlier this week. 'BLM is a scam,' Yachty replied when asked about his philanthropic endeavors in recent years. 'BLM was literally a scam.' More from Billboard Lil Yachty Launches His Own Tequila Seltzer Brand: 'I Wanted Something That Tastes Good' Laura Jane Grace Responds to Far-Right Backlash Over Her New Song: 'Blatant Hypocrisy' Doug Kiker, 'American Idol' Contestant Known as 'The Singing Garbage Man,' Dies at 32 Blackwell fired back: 'Clip that! Send it to the f—ing news!' Lil Boat went on to reference reports of BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors purchasing a $6 million mansion in Los Angeles with alleged funds supporting the organization in 2020. 'They had bought mansions,' he proclaimed. Cullors explained the estate purchase to The Associated Press in 2023, saying at the time, 'We really wanted to make sure that the global network foundation had an asset that wasn't just financial resources. And we understood that not many Black-led organizations have property. They don't own their property.' In 2022, the Black Lives Matter Global Network faced further scrutiny when the organization's leader Shalomyah Bower was accused of misusing funds and reportedly stealing $10 million in donations. The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation responded to Yachty when reached for comment by Fox News. 'It's clear Lil Yachty has been drinking the white supremacist ideology Kool-Aid. His comments are wrong,' the organization said in a statement. 'They are misinformed, unoriginal, and crafted to please the same people who profit from Black suffering.' The organization continued: 'The real scam isn't Black Lives Matter. It is watching Black artists with massive platforms recycle the same tired attacks on Black movements while ignoring the actual systems killing us. Black Lives Matter has supported Black families who have lost loved ones to police violence. We have built programs, funded mutual aid, and fought in courtrooms and on the streets to protect our people.' Lil Yachty wasn't the first rapper to call Black Lives Matter a scam; Ye — formerly Kanye West — also referred to the organization as a scam in a post to his Instagram Story in 2022. 'EVERYONE KNOWS BLACK LIVES MATTER WAS A SCAM,' he wrote. 'NOW IT'S OVER YOU'RE WELCOME.' Watch the full episode below. Yachty's remarks on BLM take place shortly after the 32-minute mark.
