Atlanta rapper Lil Yachty has more bars than you think. The hip-hop newcomer has pulled through with a highly-anticipated Hot 97 freestyle.

After a few days of teasing, Hot 97 unleashed Yachty’s 4-minute freestyle Monday (March 12) and it features him spitting straight fire for his former critic Funk Flex.

“I was in my bag, I posted, on my ‘gram about rappers,” Flex said Lil Yachty got in the comments – he didn’t just jump in, I tagged him. Well, to be more specific, we had had run-ins on the Internet, look, look, look, he was like, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah, we had run-ins n*gga.’ So we had run-ins, right, so then I called [manager] Chris Green’s phone. I thought Chris was going to pick up. Yachty picked up but he said, yo, I thought he said ‘It’s Boat.’ I’m talking to him thinking it’s just his management team and he’s like, ‘Nah, it’s Boat.’ So I said okay. He was like, ‘I wanna come up there and talk to you.’ I told him I really don’t do the sit-down interview thing but if you want to do some bars, I’m open. I didn’t think he’d take me up on it and he said, he didn’t say it right away, maybe we conversated a little more and then he said, ‘I wanna come up there.’ So I said, ‘Okay.’ We left it at that and then the next thing I heard was he’s coming. So I said, ‘Okay,’ and now here we are.” (Hot 97)

A few days ago, Funk Flex promised to pull through with Yachty’s freestyle.

Earlier this month, Yachty responded to Flex publicly naming “wack” rappers.

Last week, Atlanta rappers Gucci Mane and Migos celebrated Yachty’s new Lil Boat 2 album release.
