There's a Rapper Named 22 Savage with a 'Savage Mode' Mixtape on the Way
It's becoming a rite of passage. If you get enough buzz going as a rapper in 2016, a look-alike who sounds, dresses, and acts just like you might pop up on some distant corner of the internet.
It happened to Young Thug with Kyng back in March, and now 21 Savage has his own sound-alike: 22 Savage. Bearing a striking resemblance to the popular Atlanta rapper, 22 Savage could be confused for a twin brother—and his SoundCloud page reveals five songs featuring the same hypnotic flow as 21. The most popular track, "Jumpin," already has over 200,000 plays.
Although he defiantly shouts "this ain't 21 bitch, this 22," on "Jumpin," 22 is clearly not avoiding comparisons as he prepares to release his first mixtape—appropriately titled Savage Mode. It has to be only a matter of time until he really commits and gets that knife tattoo, right? The artwork for "Jumpin" (knife included) might be a peek at the future for the clearly dedicated 19-year-old.
