Lil Yachty's Latest Song Release Stirs Accusations of Style Stealing from Fellow Atlanta Rapper

Lil Yachty surprised fans by dropping three new songs, “Cry Me a River,” “All Around the World,” and “We Ball Forever” on October 20, showcasing his evolving sound. However, his new releases quickly sparked controversy, with Atlanta rapper and producer Curtis Williams accusing Yachty of copying his style. Curtis, formerly of the rap crew Two-9, pointed to the fisheye lens used in the “We Ball Forever” music video as a direct imitation of a similar technique in one of his recent videos.

Curtis took to social media to express his frustration, sharing a side-by-side comparison of the two videos to highlight the similarities in their visuals. He captioned the post with “LMAO COME ON NOW,” alongside several crying face emojis, signaling his disbelief. The rapper also left crying emojis on Yachty’s Instagram post promoting “We Ball Forever,” subtly letting Yachty know his thoughts. As of now, Yachty has not responded to the accusations.


This isn’t the first time Lil Yachty has found himself in the middle of drama. Recently, he was involved in a ghostwriting dispute with his former artist Karrahbooo. Yachty went on Instagram Live in August, accusing Karrahbooo of falsely claiming she was bullied by his collective, Concrete Boys, before being kicked out of the group. He also alleged that he wrote all of her verses, including the viral On the Radar freestyle.

Yachty expressed his frustration during the livestream, calling out Karrahbooo for not appreciating his efforts in shaping her career. He claimed to have written her most famous verses, dressed her, and even given her a luxury watch. His outburst came after Karrahbooo insinuated that she was bullied, which Yachty vehemently denied, saying her comments left him feeling disrespected.

In response, Karrahbooo hit back on her Instagram Stories, accusing Yachty of lying and challenging him to admit that she wrote her own music. She shared a screenshot of her popular songs on Apple Music, showcasing that her solo track “Running Late” was outperforming her contributions to Concrete Boys’ album, signaling her independence from Yachty’s influence.
