WHAT IT IS: Since his meteoric rise in 2017, 23-year-old Yungeen Ace has become a consistent, proven hitmaker with his melodic flow over hard-hitting beats. Since his 2017 self-released hit, “Go to War,” Ace has been keeping himself busy with projects like Don Dada, Life of Betrayal, Can’t Speak on It with JayDaYoungan as well as collabs with King Von, YFN Lucci and Spinabenz on the 2021 viral hit “Who I Smoke (A Thousand Miles Remix).” After years spent chronicling his life through countless songs and projects, his debut studio album, Betrayal 2x, presents a more matured Ace.
