Detroit’s own legendary rapper, Boldy James, is back with a brand new single, “Super Mario,” produced by Ant Beatzz, known for his work with heavyweights like Lil Baby, Eminem, and Future. Released today via EMPIRE, the track is accompanied by a captivating music video that takes viewers through a day in Boldy’s world, showcasing his streetwise lyrics and effortless presence as he posts up on the block.
Boldy’s prolific output continues to make waves, as he’s already dropped nearly a dozen records this year. Following collaborations with artists like Benny The Butcher on tour, Boldy has gifted fans singles such as “Yokohama Slim” in April, “Off-White Lumberjack” with Conductor Williams in June, and “Cecil Fielder” with Harry Fraud, all leading up to their full collaboration album set to release later this year. Additionally, Boldy kicked off 2024 with two projects: Penalty of Leadership with Nicholas Craven and Trapper’s Alley: Pros & Cons.
Boldy James’ journey from performing at his middle school talent show to becoming one of Detroit’s most respected underground rappers has been nothing short of remarkable. Having dropped out of high school and hustled on the streets, he adopted his rap name from a childhood friend and has since become a favorite of rap elites, including Jay-Z. His consistency and dedication to the craft have solidified his place as one of the most influential figures in Detroit’s thriving rap culture.
