Trippie Redd surprises fans with a music video for “Excitement,” his May 2020 released single featuring PARTYNEXTDOOR. The follow up to A Love Letter To You 4 – his first album to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart – “Excitement” is dramatic and sensual, featuring PARTYNEXTDOOR’s irresistibly dark R&B vocals. In the Aidan Cullen directed music video, Trippie and PARTYNEXTDOOR are stuck in a dystopian, psychedelic world, trapped on a boat in the middle of the ocean as Trippie struggles to escape.

One of the most versatile and creatively daring artists in hip-hop today, platinum-selling rapper/singer/songwriter Trippie Redd has landed four albums in the top 10 in just three years’ time. With the November 2019 release of A Love Letter To You 4—his first-ever album to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart—Trippie offered up his most dynamic body of work to date, delivering a 21-track effort that amassed over 125.9 million streams in its first week alone. With his penetrating lyrics and nuanced but hard-hitting vocal performance, the 21-year-old Ohio native continually defies genre boundaries, embedding his melodic take on rap with elements of rock-and-roll and heavy metal to ultimately create a sound that’s wildly experimental yet massively appealing.
As he recalls, the urge to create his own music arose soon after his older brother (an aspiring rapper who went by the name Dirty Redd) died in a car accident when Trippie was 10. (“I took his dream and did it myself,” Trippie says now.) Drawing much of his inspiration from the free-flowing style and inventive lyricism of Lil Wayne, Trippie began recording in his cousin’s basement and later relocated to Atlanta to further hone his skills, quickly landing a record deal with 10K Projects in 2017.
