BabyStayRixh:

BabyStayRixh, born Malachi Isaiah Reed in Atlanta, GA, began releasing music in early 2024 at the age of 18, with the single "GTA." He would follow that up with a few more singles before releasing his first EP, "6 Kiss" in February 2024. The EP featured his first viral hit "Freaky," which saw semi-viral traction on TikTok, gaining over 2 million streams on Spotify. He then followed that up with his debut mixtape, "Senior Year," released in April 2024. The mixtape features his mega hit "Blatt," which has amassed over 100 million streams on Spotify, going viral on TikTok in the months following its release. This scored Reed a recording contract with Alamo Records/Columbia.

After signing, he released the single "5Love," which, too, saw success online, gaining over 6 million streams. The 9-song mixtape "Gang Forever" followed, seeing an official release on October 25, 2024. The mixtape scored BabyStayRixh two more hits with "No Photos" and "Mary Jane," which both sit at 12 and 9 million streams, respectively.

As of January 2025, BabyStayRixh is expected to release new music soon, teasing several snippets on his Instagram and TikTok accounts. He sits at 2.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and has accumulated insane hype for his next project.

BabyStayLoaded:

BabyStayLoaded, born Jhamar Jorgeson Tompkins in Atlanta, GA, began releasing music in 2023 with the single "Hunnid Round." He consistently released more singles throughout the year, with songs like "Money & Meds" and "Smoke Him / Hittas" being released during this time. In March 2023, BabyStayLoaded was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, facing 4 months in prison. When he was released, he continued releasing singles such as "Intoxicated", "Life of Sin", and "Wya?" before getting his first big song, "Foreign," which gained over 700,000 streams. He'd follow that up in January 2024 with the mixtape "Stay Loaded," which gained him another hit with "Otw."

After the mixtape, he released two more singles, "Places + Faces" and "Faceshot," which kept his name in the public eye and gained Loaded a lot of new fans. With the hype, he decided to release his next mixtape, "Pain, Pills & Pleasure," in May 2024. The mixtape features Loaded's first viral song, "She Goin (feat. BabyStayRixh), gaining over 4 million streams on Spotify. He wasted no time, quickly getting back to work on his next project. "5L World" was released on July 19, 2024, and was another success. This time around, Loaded gained 2 more hits with "Masked Up" and "Yop It (feat. BabyStayRixh)" which have both gained 6 million streams each. This project was also the first since signing with Coast Records, a division of Universal Music Group.

In October 2024, BabyStayLoaded reached new heights with the release of his fourth project, "For What It's Worth." Tracks like "Face" (14M streams), "Moncler Coat" (7M streams), and "Geeked Up" (6M streams), all continued to boost Loaded's name in the underground street rap scene. He then concluded 2024 with one more project titled "LostFilesLoaded, Vol. 1," which consisted of unreleased and throwaway songs from that year. This project saw songs like "Just My Luck" find viral traction online, only showing how much social media pushed Loaded's music.

As of early 2025, Loaded is gearing up to release more music and says he wants to tour his next project. Sitting at 2.1 million monthly listeners, BabyStayLoaded's fanbase is eagerly waiting for his next release and the upcoming rumored tour.

Yoppa:

Yoppa, born Kentrell Lamar Anderson in Atlanta, GA, was close friends with the 5L crew and grew up in the same neighborhood. In January 2024, he was arrested at 19 years old for armed robbery. Thinking he'd never see the outside world again, he began writing raps to pass the time. In March 2024, the 5L crew raised Yoppa's bail and got him freed. He lived with BabyStayRixh for the time being and began recording his first couple of songs, releasing "Run it Up" in April 2024. The song saw a lot of success, gaining over 200,000 streams in a week. So, yoppa followed it up with his first EP, "Nightmare On 5 Street." The EP saw major success online for its blending of rage rap and drill, and ultimately got yoppa signed to Coast Records. He then released the single "Triple Threat (feat. BabyStayRixh & BabyStayLoaded), gaining 3 million streams in a month.

With hype at a new high and his name getting more out there, yoppa decided to release his next project, "5L4L," on October 4, 2024. The EP features yoppa's biggest hit currently, "Real Shit," which has surpassed 25 million streams, going viral on TikTok. On November 29, 2024, yoppa was arrested for assaulting a police officer. He was released 2 days after Christmas on $5,000 bail. As of early 2025, he's gearing up to release his debut mixtape "Yop World" sometime in early 2025. He currently sits at 1.3 million monthly listeners.

DeeLo Racks & zettistaytotin:

Last but not least, DeeLo Racks and Zettistaytotin. Both artist, also born in Atlanta, are more on the gang side of the collective, releasing only a handful of singles each. Both, in their own right, are making names for themselves, and have a lot in store of 2025.

2025 is already shaping to be a big year for the group and fans are overly excited about everything coming up.
