Moneybagg Yo Rookie Of The Year

Moneybagg Yo is far from a rookie in the rap game but he’s feeling as refreshed as a youngster, proudly putting on his Memphis Grizzlies jersey for his brand new single “Rookie of the Year.”

One of the most consistent artists across all genres, the certified speaker has returned just weeks after releasing his new album A Gangsta’s Pain, dropping a fresh single called “Rookie of the Year.” While the record is based on his own recent wins in the rap game, he uses Grizzlies star Ja Morant to drive home his point, ad-libbing the baller’s name on multiple occasions and showing love to the rising star. The single comes just a few days before Morant drops his new documentary Promise Land.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Turn me up, YC (Turn me up, Y…)

[Verse 1]
Jersey, my city on my back, I got ’em reppin’ me, heard me
Know I play with M’s, must be stupid if she curve me (Dumb)
Fitted hat and Forces, still be dressin’ like I’m servin’ (Trap)
Rookie of the year, I got the ball and they got nervous (Spooked)
‘Member havin’ mask on way before corona hit
Told 30 not to cross the plug, he went behind me, set the pick
I play like a beast but my demeanor humble (Don’t make me turn up)
Go so hard they got to retire my number (Big 12)
Unranked underdog (Uh), trained to go when I ball
Losses turn to lessons, I can’t see myself fallin’ off (Nah)
And I’m havin’ accuracy, I pull up and shoot off the rip
Off the hip, check the score, it’s twenty-zip

[Chorus]
Swoosh
If you ain’t got no check for me, don’t check for me, respectfully (Nah)
I can’t let my kid down, I’m buildin’ up my legacy (Yeah)
Ain’t competin’ with nobody, I’m just tryna be a better me (Me)
Introduction, ’bout to show you somethin’ that you ain’t never see (Go)
Five rings, five chains (Check)
Two watches, that’s twelve (Ja)
Come through and slam on you, I’m in the air (Ah)
‘Fore it’s all said and done, let me make one thing clear (What?)
True to it, not new to it, I’m rookie of the year

[Verse 2]
Love the game, it relate to me best (I do)
Work better under pressure when I’m put to the test (Go hard)
Strategic how I move, I just treat it like chess (On point)
Team Morant, the Grizzlies on my Mitchell & Ness (Straight from Memphis)
Now I’m up, can’t sleep on me (Nope)
Take a risk to win, that’s key (Go)
Put a show on for them people, give ’em what they came to see (Look)
How you tryna teach me some? (Huh?)
You ain’t made it ‘cross the street (Nope)
I deserve the keys to it, I’m my city MVP

[Chorus]
Swoosh (Bagg)
If you ain’t got no check for me, don’t check for me, respectfully (Nah)
I can’t let my kid down, I’m buildin’ up my legacy (Yeah)
Ain’t competin’ with nobody, I’m just tryna be a better me (Me)
Introduction, ’bout to show you somethin’ that you ain’t never see (Go)
Five rings, five chains (Check)
Two watches, that’s twelve (Ja)
Come through and slam on you, I’m in the air (Ah)
‘Fore it’s all said and done, let me make one thing clear (What?)
True to it, not new to it, I’m rookie of the year (Bagg)

[Outro]
True to it, not new to it, I’m rookie of the year
True to it, not new to it, I’m rookie of the year
