Editor's note

Ilovemakonnen's hazy, late-night Atlanta sound

The artist behind 'Tuesday' built a catalog of moody, melodic tracks that felt different from rap's mainstream.

For that signature mood, start with 'Too Faded' or 'Drunk On Saturday'. They really lock in that late-night haze he does so well.

Ilovemakonnen's 'Tuesday' with Drake became a viral hit in 2014, pulling his hazy, melodic approach into a wider spotlight. Songs like 'Too Faded' and 'Drunk On Saturday' capture that late-night feel that set him apart from a lot of what was happening in rap at the time. He's also brought a personal dimension to his presence, speaking openly about his sexuality and advocating for LGBTQ+ issues.

Growing up in Atlanta, he broke through with 'Tuesday' in 2014 and put out a steady stream of projects like the self-titled mixtape that year, 'Drink More Water 6' in 2017, and 'My Parade' in 2020. He's worked with other Atlanta artists like Gucci Mane and Lil Yachty, and a 2015 drug arrest briefly complicated his public story.
