Myaap: My phrase for the rest of the year is simply 'Big Cliff around this bitch, you a Scooby-doo'
Honestly, I might even change up the homepage quote and literally change it courtesy of rap diva Myaap’s new ‘Wrist Buss’ single. The line ‘Big Cliff around this bitch, you a Scooby-doo’ has me blown away and I can’t get enough. Holy. Smokes.
Myaap completely bodies and delivers with her ‘Wrist Buss’ anthem
It’s pure fire and demands both placement in the NEWS section along with the homepage playlist. Her latest audio gem? Digital flames.
Fresh off the release of her YOP! EP produced by Goth Money's own Nedarb (Lil Peep,$uicideboy$, Black Kray), 18-year-old Milwaukee phenom Myaap has shared her new single "Wrist Buss" — out now. Rooted in glittery bounce, "Wrist Buss" is a turbo-charged outing defined by sticky flexes ("Wrist on froze/And my neck too/Big Clifford around this bitch/You a Scooby-Doo") and a hypnotic refrain. Following her recent stint as an opener on the second leg of Veeze’s Ganger Tour, YOP! marked a testament to both Myaap's forward-thinking artistry and ever-growing hunger — serving as a fitting follow-up to her EP BIG MYAAP, NOT THE LIL ONE. Still just a teenager, Myaap stands at the cutting edge of her city's cultural moment, backed by her viral ABBA-sampling phenomenon, “Getting To It", as well as other party-ready tracks like “Wham'' (4M+ Streams) and “Party Crackin" (4M Streams).
Making waves for her genre-defying take on Milwaukee bounce, Myaap's fiery energy and captivating wordplay are seeing her level up amongst her city's ranks, collaborating with fellow hometown heroes like Certified Trapper, AyooLii, and J.P. Continuing to infuse her regional scene with danceable raps and contagious, upbeat energy, Myaap is on a steady ascent — she also recently performed at MIKE's Young World Festival in a lineup alongside Earl Sweatshirt. Despite releasing her debut track in 2022, Myaap has quickly garnered a cult-like following for the bass-heavy sound that’s become synonymous with her name: blending Southern bounce with the distinct, contemporary styles coming out of Chicago and Detroit's street rap scenes.
Despite having no formal music training, Myaap credits her background as a dancer (along with a musically-inclined brother) for her intuitive ability to turn any setting into a party. It’s no wonder then that she has swiftly become a TikTok darling, inspiring dance trends with viral tracks like "Getting To It", which samples ABBA’s "Dancing Queen" and has racked up 120,000+ videos on the platform. Myaap doesn’t make songs as much as she does anthems; absurdist manifestos informed by the strong cultural community in Milwaukee, emphasizing collective joy over the individuality of hustle culture. Since breaking out onto the scene, Myaap has collaborated with Milwaukee leaders like Certified Trapper, AyooLii, and J.P. But she isn’t just a regional legend — a newfound favorite among critics, she was featured in Alphonse Pierre’s ‘Best Records of 2023’ (among several other Pitchfork shoutouts) and has recently been championed by UPROXX.
