Whatever you think you know about Lil Tecca, forget it now. When you throw away all of the internet chatter, clickbait, punditry, and opinions, the music is all that’s left. Now more than ever, that music reflects the truth for the chart-topping multi-platinum New York rapper. It’s why a passionate fan base has connected so intimately to his open-hearted lyrics, otherworldly hooks, and off-kilter flows. It’s why he’s consistently asserted himself as an individual without comparison. It’s also why he will leave an indelible imprint on the game. He’s been quietly preparing himself to make such a statement.
Tecca arrived with the force of a hurricane in 2019. Since emerging, he has gathered over 10 billion streams and notched a series of multi-platinum, platinum, and gold singles, including the quadruple-platinum breakthrough “Ransom'' and the platinum-certified bangers “Did It Again,” “Lot of Me,” and “Never Left.” He scored four consecutive Top 15 debuts on the Billboard 200 with just as many projects, and beyond selling out hundreds of headline shows around the globe, he has collaborated with Lil Uzi Vert, The Kid LAROI, Kodak Black, Lil Durk, and the late Juice WRLD, to name a few, inciting the applause of The New York Times, Billboard, HYPEBEAST, Complex, and more along the way.
Despite the previous accolades, Tecca finally introduced his genuine self on his third full-length album, 2023’s TEC [Galactic Records/Republic Records], featuring platinum single “500lbs”
The momentum didn’t stop there; Tecca closed out 2023 with the surprise drop of “Down With Me,” a track that quickly trended on YouTube and hinted at what was to come. The release was followed by the announcement that he had begun work on his next album, Plan A.
2024 began with a bang as he embarked on the sold-out HVN ON EARTH Tour and graced stages at major festivals including Rolling Loud California. Tecca returned yet again at the beginning of May with the release of dual singles "Never Last" and "Number 2," signaling to fans that Plan A is not only on the horizon but contains his best music to-date.
