Young Greatness has been steadily building off the buzz of his hit “Moolah,” most recently releasing "Ball" and getting an official remix from Lil Wayne and Yo Gotti. Now the New Orleans artist gets another big name co-sign in the form of a feature from Akon on “Celebration.”
If “Moolah” was a testament to the hustle, this track is the culmination. The duo sing about the difficulty of their come up in the context of newfound wealth and security. Akron’s distinctive voice meshes well with Young Greatness’ roughly melodic vocals, and the two trade off bars for the chorus. The mid-tempo production from Haz Futcha coasts along easily behind the two artists.

Quotable Lyrics
And those crack babies are kingpins now
and the kingpins are the ones fiending now
and my karma came around
man I came up by staying down
