Yatta Bandz & Lil Bean: The 'My Mistake' music video is the definition of not holding back

Why bite your tongue when you can let loose like rap crooners Yatta Bandz and Lil Bean? It’s all in the visual flex coming courtesy of the ‘My Mistake’ music video.

The single is fire but getting a full-fledged visual presentation? Super tough. Tap in.

A master of melody with a massive following in his region, Heyward, CA's Yatta Bandz always wears his heart on his sleeve. Displaying a humility uncommon in rappers of his stature, the Bay Area's best-kept secret shares "My Mistake," his new single. With a video going live at 3pm ET/12pm PT on Yatta's YouTube channel (292k subscribers), "My Mistake" is the first step on the road to Acrylic, the 22-year-old artist's next EP. 

Emoting in his signature melodic flow, Yatta acknowledges his flaws and owns up to his past failures, before resolving to turn the page on the past. He gets assistance from a friend from across the Bay–San Francisco's Lil Bean–whose lamentations about street issues provide a perfect contrasts to Yatta's matters of the heart. The song arrives with a video directed by AdamKG, who films both artists at sunset as they lay their souls bare. 

Born in Hayward, an East Bay city south of Oakland and north of Fremont,  Yatta Bandz has quietly become one of the most popular rappers to emerge from the Bay Area this decade. The young rapper had a rough childhood, experiencing periods of homelessness during his elementary school years. He found his refuge in music, sharing freestyles to YouTube and building a following big enough to make his debut album a hit. Since releasing his debut project Perfect Storm in 2022, Yatta has generated over 480 million worldwide streams, including on hits like “Don’t Go” (40.3 million Spotify streams, 10 million YouTube views) and “Unseen Scars” (38 million Spotify streams, 6.7 million views on YouTube audio). Last year, Yatta followed up Perfect Storm with the heartfelt TUFF LUV, home to highlights like "Way Out West" and "Polaroid." A showcase for his sharp songwriting and achingly honest lyrics, TUFF LUV has racked up over 50 million streams to date across platforms.

This fall, Yatta plans to refine his sound even further with his upcoming EP, Acrylic. Painting on canvas with his earworm melodies, Yatta likens himself to a master painter, with an unlimited array of colors in his palette. With 3 million streams per week on his catalog and a work of art on the way, Yatta hopes to become the next Bay Area rapper to blow. Stay tuned for the new EP, coming soon via EMPIRE.
