New Orleans rapper Rob49 has released a new single and video, “In The Club” featuring Sexyy Red. The track is the first official offering from Rob49’s highly anticipated forthcoming project, Life of the Party, set to arrive this fall.
“In the Club” is, of course, set at a packed nightclub. The rappers are out on the town with friends, stirring up chaos and celebration.
Rob49 began releasing music in 2020. His 2022 fifth mixtape, Welcome to Vulture Island, features guest appearances from Vezzo, Babyface Ray, Doe Boy, Landstrip Chip, and Lil Baby—to say nothing of the project being introduced by legendary Cash Money Records founder Birdman. His “Vulture Island V2” remix with Lil Baby went gold and got tens of millions of views on YouTube alone. From there, he popped up on tracks alongside Kevin Gates and Fredo Bang, and was featured on “2 Million Up” by Peezy alongside Jeezy and Real Boston Richey, which was nominated for Video of the Year at the BET Awards 2023. That same year, Rob49 received a coveted XXL Freshman spot.
He’s since worked with legends across generations, appearing on Travis Scott’s 2023 album UTOPIA alongside 21 Savage, and linking with Lil Wayne on 2024’s “Wassam Baby.” His 2023 project 4God II revealed how in-demand Rob49 is among rap’s A-list with features from Detroit’s Icewear Vezzo (“BMF”), DaBaby (“Hate it or Love It”), Chicago legend G Herbo (“Skeme”), and other features by Roddy Ricch (“TRX”), Trippie Redd (“My Hittas”), and NoCap (“No Love”). A deluxe edition added 10 new tracks and collaborations, including the hit “Mama” with Skilla Baby and Tay B.
In 2025, Rob49 released his album Let Me Fly. A loosie called “WTHelly,” meanwhile, went viral on social media. “It’s something that my partners came up with in New Orleans,” he told Billboard of the phrase. “We just be saying it, so I put it in a song.”
