MONEYBAGG YO RETURNS WITH INTROSPECTIVE NEW SINGLE “CLOSE THE DOOR”
March 21, 2025 – Today, multi-platinum hip-hop artist Moneybagg Yo returns with his introspective new single “Close the Door.”
With the new track, Moneybagg Yo offers a personal glimpse at the heaviness and history behind his rise to stardom, rapping “I done ran through bout 2 or 3 million and I spent it all on drank. They told me go hard or go home, I switched the rules and went hard in the paint.”
The music video for “Close the Door” also made its broadcast premiere today on BET Jams, BET Hip Hop and on the Paramount Times Square billboards.
Moneybagg Yo reminds us of the legacy he’s been building, especially on the heels of his 2024 album, SPEAK NOW and the deluxe follow-up, SPEAK NOW OR… . With over 29 tracks, he both leaned into his Memphis roots (with songs like the Three 6 Mafia-referencing “BUSSIN” featuring Rob49) and flexed his versatility via collabs like “WHISKEY WHISKEY” with Morgan Wallen and “DRUNK OFF U” with Chris Brown. Lil Durk, BossMan Dlow, GloRilla, YTB Fatt, and others stopped in, too. The set was Moneybagg Yo’s fifth official album and 10th project to make the Billboard 200’s Top 20.
In just a few years, Moneybagg Yo has cemented himself as one of the most versatile voices in hip-hop — a rapper’s rapper with an ear to the club and the streets. Beyond the undying love he receives from his hometown, he’s been celebrated by critics and fellow rappers alike. He has been nominated for Billboard Music Awards and iHeartRadio Awards, received acclaim from publications like Pitchfork and the New York Times, seen his collaboration with Yo Gotti, Mozzy, and Lil Poppa, “Big League,” chosen as the official song of the 2022 NBA Finals, and collaborated with A-list stars including Pharrell, Morgan Wallen, Chris Brown, Future, Lil Durk, GLoRilla and many more.
