There hasn’t been any word on whether “Run It Up” is taken from an upcoming project, but he only released his Proud Of Me Now project back in December 2020. Unlike most collaborations between Sheff and fellow Brooklyn drill MC Sleepy Hallow, the song sees the two go over a more melodic, R&B-influenced beat that perfectly complements Boogie’s presence on the track.

The Claudia Rezir-directed visual stars the three rappers as they celebrate the fruits of their success. I’m New York’s sound.With the arrival of Sheff G’s new track “Run It Up” featuring Sleepy Hallow and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, the three have teamed up for a lavish music video filmed in a mansion in Jersey. “But I’m at a point right now where I feel like I am New York. On the local side, A Boogie draws influence from Highbridge labelmates Don Q and Trap Manny, as well as 6ix9ine, a rapper he shares a bona fide hit with in “KEKE.” “New York is what New York is-it’s all over the place,” A Boogie says of his city’s influence. It took a whole year, but luckily I got a chance to clear it, so shout out to Michael Jackson’s team.” He’s also experimenting with styles, alternating between his highest and lowest registers on “Bosses and Workers” and adopting Michael Jackson’s “Remember the Time” cadence for “Look Back at It.” “‘Remember the Time’ and ‘You Rock My World’ was two of my favorite songs from him,” A Boogie says, “so even if I wasn’t able to clear it, I always wanted to sample a song of his and rap about me. The album features A Boogie weaving in and out of these personas to talk about the newfound stresses of life as a star (“Voices in My Head”), putting on for The Bronx and New York City as a whole (“Beasty”), and, of course, how dealing with untrustworthy women has hardened him as a lover (“Skeezers”). It’s a balance of street and love in your life.” “A Boogie, he’s still got some of that in him, but when it comes to Hoodie SZN, it’s straight street. “In the beginning, Artist came out on some heartbroken s**t,” he tells Apple Music. Since he broke the naming convention for Hoodie SZN, one might conclude that A Boogie is finished explaining who he is, but according to him, Hoodie SZN is simply another chapter in his biography.


In the three years leading up to Hoodie SZN, Bronx rapper A Boogie wit da Hoodie (né Artist Dubose) released Artist, The Bigger Artist, and International Artist.
