On “India Me,” SleazyWorld Go showcases his sonic range and versatility with a more romantic track that sees him playing around with melodic vocals and lyrics outside his previous releases. “India Me,” is about the desire to make a relationship a partnership — Sleazy wants to find a woman who will support him the way he supports her. In the video, Sleazy juxtaposes the way relationships might look on social media and how they are in real life, starting off with the message, “This is a love song, for the streets though,” before showing off his girl and the fairytale life they’ve built.
With “India Me,” Kansas City by-way-of Grand Rapids’ rapper cements himself as hip-hop’s 2022 Rookie Of The Year. He’s proven he can go bar for bar with the best of them with hard-hitting singles like the “Sleazy Flow” remix featuring Lil Baby and “Step 1” featuring Offset. “India Me” offers a glimpse of the heat to be expected on SleazyWorld Go’s upcoming mixtape COMER (pronounced “Come Here”), which will provide an introduction to his sonic world.
SleazyWorld Go’s ties to his two cities are an important part of his story and his trajectory — just last week on 8/20, Sleazy hosted a Back To School giveaway event in Kansas City. With support from local radio stations and taking place at a community event space in the heart of Kansas City, Sleazy set up a giveaway of school supplies, hair braiding and haircuts from local barbers, a bounce house, and more, all ahead of the first day of school. Sleazy even taught some of the kids that attended the “Step 1” dance.
As SleazyWorld Go expands upon his artistry, he will continue to bring deserved attention to the two cities he represents, “I want the world to notice my sound and hear this new wave,” asserts the 24-year-old. With a handful of songs streaming in the millions, Mixtape COMER presents an artist who demands to be original— from flows, beat selection, and fashion choices to cultivating his unique lingo.
SleazyWorld Go’s rise to stardom began in 2019, following a personal transformation behind bars. The artist whose mom moved his family from Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Kansas City, Missouri, searching for a better life, wanted to move in a positive direction. Music was his method. He began parsing a dynamic range of songs on social media and cultivating a fanbase. In 2021, SleazyWorld Go unveiled his biggest hit so far, “Sleazy Flow.” “It was a statement: this is my sound, this is who I am, and this is my whole wave,” he details. Fast approaching 10 million streams, the song, and video captivated—gaining social support from Lil Baby, Jack Harlow, and more. That success gives way to COMER, a breakthrough mixtape translating to “come here,” the catchphrase from his songs applies to opps, romance, and an expanding fanbase. Amid a definitive 2022, SleazyWorld Go declares, “I want to keep breaking barriers and doing what hasn’t been done.”
