Rising Florida rapper Hotboii returns today with another white-hot single, “Oath.” The anthemic track comes on the heels of Hotboii’s thrilling Rolling Loud set, and continues an accomplished year for the Orlando MC. The buzzing young artist has also just surpassed over 450M total streams in yet another career-defining moment.
“Oath” is available now at all digital retailers HERE. Over chest-rattling drums and soaring synth-strings, Hotboii showcases one-of-a-kind bars blessed by buoyant melody. It’s brief, yet triumphant—a two-minute burst of dopamine and bass. At the song’s peak, he sings, “I never get tired of winning,” which based on his recent run of hits sounds like one of the truest lines rapped this year. Most MCs would take a victory lap after going bar-for-bar with FUTURE, as Hotboii did on his last single, “Nobody Special,” but with “Oath,” it’s clear that he isn’t planning on taking his foot off the gas any time soon.
“Oath” continues an undeniable run for Hotboii. These recent singles follow his stunning 2020 releases, which announced his arrival among rap’s elite. After sharing two beloved projects (Kut da Fan On and Double O Baby) last year, Hotboii released the standout “Fuck Shit” in February. Along the way, the MC has racked up praise from tastemaking outlets like Complex, who wrote, “Hotboii can do it all.” In July, he played a standout set at Rolling Loud Miami, a celebratory slot at one of his home state’s most beloved festivals. It was another bright spot in a year that’s shaping up to be even more memorable than the last.
