DUSTY LOCANE Returns with ROLLIN N CONTROLLIN Pt. 2 (Picture Me)

Tearing through the Brooklyn drill scene with his basso voice, DUSTY LOCANE is coming for the NYC rap throne. Coming through with the blockbuster sequel to his breakthrough hit, DUSTY shares ROLLIN N CONTROLLIN Pt. 2 (Picture Me),” his new single. Produced by Hitman Audio, the new song shares the first part’s mix of drill percussion and ethereal vocal samples, but the vibe is more relaxed, as DUSTY engages in a call-and-response with the soulful sample (referencing a 2Pac classic) and fills the track’s ample negative space with his booming boasts. “ROLLIN N CONTROLLIN Pt. 2” is a showcase for the rapper’s supernatural charisma, proving once again that the 21-year-old rapper can dominate a room without much instrumental backing. “ROLLIN N CONTROLLIN Pt. 2 (Picture Me)” will appear on Life Of A FiveDUSTY’s upcoming debut project.

The new single is the worthy follow-up to R0LLIN N CONTROLLIN FREESTYLE,” a furious missive that racked up over 130 million combined audio and visual streams, along with nearly 200k video creations on TikTok. DUSTY’s second single, the follow-up hit Rolando (Caught In The Rain),” proved that the WOO-affiliated rapper’s success was no fluke, racking up over 1 million YouTube views and 1 million Spotify streams in its first week and earning praise from Pitchfork. Both “ROLLIN & CONTROLLIN” and “Rolando” peaked in the Top 5 of Rolling Stone’s Trending 25 chart, and his third single INTRO 2 ME, PT. 1” peaked in that chart’s top 10. On just his first four singles, 21-year-old rapper already racked up over 200 million combined audio and visual on-demand streams. More recently, the Canarsie native turned heads with “MOVE DOLEY,” a collaboration with fellow Brooklynite OnPointLikeOP, and  RUMBLE,” which racked up over 13 million streams across platforms since its release in February.

With more music on the way and the streets of Brooklyn on his back, DUSTY LOCANE is a great bet to reach the upper echelons of rap stardom. Stay tuned for many more announcements about DUSTY LOCANE and the upcoming Life Of A Five, due to release in June via EMPIRE.
