The tastemakers with the power to make and break careers and establish the public opinion granted Lil Pump access to the upper echelon of contemporary rap, handing him the keys to a kingdom dominated by giants like Lil Uzi Vert, Drake, and the Migos. His 2017 release “Gucci Gang” officially-unofficially contributed to the titular brand doubling their sales in the following year his self-titled debut scored a solid 6.9 from Pitchfork and an impressive 7/10 from popular internet figure, critic, and self-professed “internet’s biggest music nerd” Anthony Fantano. Garcia solidified himself as a keystone of pop culture. From posting tracks detailing both selling and doing drugs with the eldery on skeletal streaming platforms to a Saturday Night Live performance with Kanye West, Mr. Lil Pump emerged at the prime time for a persona of his nature to ascend into mainstream stardom. I find myself searching for an industry figure equivalent, or even similar to, Mr.

On a personal-parasocial level, the Broward county rapper repeatedly served as enthralling material for a trifecta of articles: a review on his full length albums, a diagram of his most frequently employed ad libs, and a critique of rap’s drug culture that has since claimed the lives of Lil Peep, Juice Wrld, and Mac Miller. The infectious trap sound that emerged out of Atlanta migrated to South Florida as rappers like Ski Mask the Slump God, XXXTentacion, and Lil Pump spun their own versions of the genre.

#lilpump reveals he has a son…? pic.twitter.“Yeah, I sell crack in the halls,” brags a then-17-year-old Gazzy Garcia, better known by his rap moniker Lil Pump, on his track “Boss.” The single would be one of many that skyrocketed Lil Pump to the limelight of SoundCloud and “mumble rap” at the end of the 2010s. Just before Americans headed to the polls, the 20-year-old nailed his colors to the mast by appearing at a campaign rally for Donald Trump where the incumbent president introduced him incorrectly as “Lil Pimp.” Although it was revealed that the rapper didn’t even register to vote, he did drop a track called “Lil Pimp Big MAGA Steppin,” which included the lyric, “I’m screamin’ out ‘F*** Sleepy Joe’.” The fatherhood announcement is the first that Pump’s fans have heard from him since he got himself involved in politics last month. Posting a photo of himself holding a blonde toddler in a diaper on Insta, the “Be Like Me” rapper wrote, “Baby momma ain’t s*** won’t let me see my son #fathers right.” Pump, whose real name is Gazzy Garcia, did not elaborate on his baby mama drama, nor on the age or name of his son.

Pusha T infamously revealed that the “Hotline Bling” rapper was a father in his diss track “ The Story of Adidon,” prompting Drake to come clean about having fathered a son named Adonis with his ex, Sophie Brussaux. It seems as though the Miami native has pulled a Drake by concealing a kid for the last couple of years. Not much is known about Lil Pump’s love life, so fans were surprised when he dropped a major bombshell on social media today.
Lil Pump has a new side he’s revealing to his fans: fatherhood.
