Rapper surprise drops deluxe edition of 2021 mixtape
Toosii has surprised fans by dropping the deluxe edition of his acclaimed 2021 mixtape, Thank You For Believing, via South Coast Music Group/Capitol Records. The set contains 10 new songs, entitled Thank You For Believing (The Manifestation).
He shares his electrifying new single, “spin music” Ft. Fivio Foreign, which is the closing track on The Manifestation. The official video mirrors the song’s kinetic energy, jumping between scenes of ATVs, parties and bedrooms as Toosii and Fivio perform – all rendered with a dizzying array of lenses, camera angles and special effects. Jerami Lam, who helmed the video for Fivio’s “Jumpin,” directed.
Brooklyn-based rapper/songwriter Fivio Foreign – known for such hits as “Big Drip” (and the Gold-certified remix featuring Quavo and Lil Baby), “Unruly” and “Trust” – has also collaborated recently with Lil Tjay, Polo G, Russ Millions and Tion Wayne, among others.
Other standout tracks on Thank You For Believing (The Manifestation) include the cinematic, classically-influenced “let me know” ft. Hotboii, the poignant “mercedez pt 2” – which finds Toosii reflected on the tragic character introduced on “mercedez” from 2020’s Platinum Heart – and “heart cold.”
With a gift for drenching real lyrics in rich emotion, Toosii is one of rap’s most relatable new stars. The Syracuse-born, Raleigh-based artist has captured the public’s imagination — offering honest tales of street life and lost love, among other moving themes that have vaulted him from a lost kid, surrounded by tragedy, to a national sensation.
Toosii will launch the Thank You For Believing Tour, his first-ever U.S. headline outing, in the fall. Tickets are on sale but are going quickly with shows in New York City, Boston and Chicago already sold out. A November 6th date has been added in Cleveland and the November 22nd show in Atlanta has been moved to a larger venue, due to the demand for tickets. Toosii will join Gucci Mane & Friends at Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi on August 28th and perform at upcoming festivals such as Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits and Rolling Loud LA.
