Sonically distinct, industrious, and self-assured, Khalif \u201cSwae Lee\u201d Brown, 21, and Aaquil \u201cSlim Jxmmi\u201d Brown, 23, have swept through the music world like a Gulf Coast storm since releasing \u201cNo Flex Zone,\u201d the successful first single off their EarDrummers\/Interscope debut, SremmLife, in May 2014.<\/p>\n<p>In the recording booth and on stage, the energetic rappers bring an unrelenting, infectious, feel-good party vibe that has won seemingly everybody over, from folks in their hometown, to producer and label boss Mike WiLL Made-It, to Paul bloody McCartney, who knows a little something about making unforgettable popular music. Anybody who was resistant to Rae Sremmurd\u2019s subsequent string of hits (\u201cNo Type,\u201d \u201cThrow Sum Mo,\u201d \u201cCome Get Her,\u201d and \u201cThis Could Be Us\u201d) had to give it up when they heard \u201cBlack Beatles,\u201d the group\u2019s Gucci Mane-assisted breakout smash from their 2016 follow-up, SremmLife 2. Associated with the viral Mannequin Challenge, the single was everywhere and undeniably awesome, earning both Rae Sremmurd and Gucci their first number-one single on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. At this point, there is no point in hating, because it\u2019s clear these accomplished siblings are just getting started and the best is yet to come.<\/p>\n<p>On the newest episode of GGN, Rae Sremmurd joins Snoop to talk about their early hustle, learning from failures, the source of their energy, their process working with Mike WiLL Made-It, the expectation of hits, real asses vs. fakes, and much more.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Catch Rae Sremmurd live at this year&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fresh-island.org\" target=\"_blank\">Fresh Island Festival<\/a>.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"116864\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/video-rae-sremmurd-on-ggn-hosted-by-snoop\/z-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/z%CC%8C.jpeg?fit=640%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,360\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Vide: Rae Sremmurd on GGN (Hosted by Snoop)\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/z%CC%8C.jpeg?fit=540%2C304&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/z%CC%8C.jpeg?fit=640%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/z%CC%8C.jpeg?fit=640%2C304&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"304\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-116864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/z%CC%8C.jpeg?resize=540%2C304&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/z%CC%8C.jpeg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether you like Rae Sremmurd or not\u2014and, seriously, how could you not\u2014you have to respect&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-116863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-interviews","category-videos"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pG6fW-uoT","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=116863"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116863\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=116863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=116863"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=116863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
