March 21, 2025 – Today, multi-platinum hip-hop artist Moneybagg Yo returns with his introspective new single “Close the Door.”Stream HERE via CMG/N-Less/Interscope Records.

With the new track, Bagg offers a personal glimpse at the heaviness and history behind his rise to stardom, rapping “I done ran through bout 2 or 3 million and I spent it all on drank. They told me go hard or go home, I switched the rules and went hard in the paint.”

The music video for “Close the Door” also made its broadcast premiere today on BET Jams, BET Hip Hop and on the Paramount Times Square billboards.

Bagg reminds us of the legacy he’s been building, especially on the heels of his 2024 album, SPEAK NOW and the deluxe follow-up, SPEAK NOW OR… (listen HERE). With over 29 tracks, he both leaned into his Memphis roots (with songs like the Three 6 Mafia-referencing “BUSSIN” featuring Rob49) and flexed his versatility via collabs like “WHISKEY WHISKEY” with Morgan Wallen and “DRUNK OFF U” with Chris Brown. Lil Durk, BossMan Dlow, GloRilla, YTB Fatt, and others stopped in, too. The set was Bagg’s fifth official album and 10th project to make the Billboard 200’s Top 20.

Over the past several years, Bagg has earned chart placements, critical love, and success in the streets with his inimitable delivery, emotional honesty, raw storytelling, and creative instincts. One of the most consistent doing it, he’s been dropping mixtapes since 2012, first becoming a regional legend-in-the-making before entering the global stage across a series of proper albums culminating in his 2021 blockbuster No. 1 debut, A Gangsta’s Pain, led by his triple-Platinum smash hits “Wockesha,” and “Time Today.” Ahead of SPEAK NOW, he shared the Hard to Lovemixtape (with Future team-up “Keep It Low”) and lent his outsize talent to collective showcases like CMG’s star-studded Gangsta Art series and N-Less Entertainment’s We Connected.

ABOUT MONEYBAGG YO:

In just a few years, Bagg has cemented himself as one of the most versatile voices in hip-hop — a rapper’s rapper with an ear to the club and the streets. Beyond the undying love he receives from his hometown, he’s been celebrated by critics and fellow rappers alike. He has been nominated for Billboard Music Awards and iHeartRadio Awards, received acclaim from publications like Pitchfork and the New York Times, seen his collaboration with Yo Gotti, Mozzy, and Lil Poppa, “Big League,” chosen as the official song of the 2022 NBA Finals, and collaborated with A-list stars including Pharrell, Morgan Wallen, Chris Brown,Future, Lil Durk, GLoRilla and many more.

Much of Moneybagg Yo’s appeal is in the way he effortlessly blends street sensibilities with the glow up of a modern trap star. Since breaking through in 2016, he’s gone on to quickly become one of the most celebrated rappers in his generation and beyond. In 2021, the Memphis native hit a major career highlight securing his first No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 chart with critically acclaimed project, A Gangsta’s Pain. The album, which moved over 110K units during its first week of release and earned the title of one of the biggest hip-hop debuts of the year, was also No. 1 on the Top R&B / Hip-Hop Albums chart and Top Rap Albums chart in the first week. This also marked Bagg’s eleventh time charting, and specifically his fifth release to peak within the Top 10. Now, he is RIAA certified 3X platinum for both “Wockesha” and “Time Today”, and certified platinum for “Go” (with Big30) A Gangsta’s Pain and Time Served. Now, with the release of his highly anticipated album SPEAK NOW all these accolades and more prove that Moneybagg Yo has earned his spot as a respected rap titan at the peak of his powers.
