Booz Lets It All Out on “What About Booz?”
By Miami City•

The first time a lot of us saw Booz was when he dropped “BG Home” last year. That record moved like wildfire through YouTube because it felt raw. It was Booz standing there, unfiltered, saying exactly what he had to say. It carried that street urgency that can’t be faked, the kind that makes you stop scrolling and actually pay attention. Since then, Booz hasn’t slowed down. He’s been building piece by piece, track by track, turning his corner of Sanford, Florida into a place the rap game has to keep its eyes on. Now he’s back with “What About Booz?,” a record and video that feels like his most personal chapter yet.
From the jump, “What About Booz?” hits like a weight on your chest. The beat, cooked up by Mahlatse Morloutsi aka TraeThisWay, isn’t flashy—it’s grimy, stripped down, and perfect for the story Booz wants to tell. He comes in with that hook asking the question that hangs over the whole record: “Nigga, what about Booz?” It’s not just a chant—it’s a demand. What about the kid who’s been grinding since he was 13, who’s been through cases, family splits, losses, and still won’t fold? The hook itself is heavy enough to stick in your head.
