Moneybagg Yo has sparked debate on Twitter after making a contentious declaration. Rap game is competitive that any assertion made is often met with polarizing takes by Hip Hop fans and at times rappers themselves.

According to Big Speaker, his much accepted album ‘A Gangsta’s Pain’ is one of the two biggest albums of the year.

The album dropped in April and features guest appearances from Polo G, Future, Lil Durk, Jhené Aiko, and more. In fact, a report from earlier this month confirmed that of all the albums released in 2021, Moneybagg Yo’s Gangsta’s Pain is the highest-selling rap album.

Moneybagg also named Pooh Shiesty’s Shiesty Season, which spawned the hard-hitting anthem “Back In Blood” as the second biggest album of the year.

Although Pooh Shiesty currently sits incarcerated, the momentum of “Back In Blood” propelled the 1017 signee to new career heights, bringing no shortage of new eyes onto his studio debut.

Obviously, Shiesty Season left an impression on Moneybagg Yo, who made sure to give his fellow Memphis representative a shout-out on Twitter.

It’s quite hard to agree with because there have been several strong contenders, with releases from J. Cole, Tyler, The Creator, Conway The Machine, Benny The Butcher, Moneybagg Yo, Pooh Shiesty, Polo G, Lloyd Banks, and many more.

“Can’t believe me & @pooh_shiesty made the 2 biggest albums this year,” he reflects. “#FreeDetMan #Memphis.”
