Bubbling out of South Florida with the slipperiest flow in the Sunshine State, BossMan Dlow is about to blow. Today, the Port Salerno native shares the highly-anticipated video for “Get In With Me,” one of the fastest-rising and most surprising rap hits of this young year, generating over 10 million on-demand streams to date, and making its debut this week at #68 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Slithering atop a sinister instrumental by Dxntemadeit, Dlow stacks a series of slick-talking flexes, starting off the song with a memorable one-two, “I was bad in f*ckin’ school, now I’m tryna dodge a sentence,” and elevating from there, commenting on his iced-out wrist, noting his recent purchase of thousand dollar sneakers, and whipping his Bentley Bentayga like there’s no tomorrow. The young rapper’s charisma pops out of the speakers on “Get In With Me,” as he rhymes in short bursts in an addictively off-kilter cadence. In the video, the rapper who calls himself “Big Za” gives a glimpse into his high-rolling lifestyle, starting with a long night of partying in Miami, before he takes his Bentley to Orlando for the NFL Pro Bowl. The video features clips from Dlow’s post-game club performance with YTB Fatt.
The new video for “Get In With Me” is only the latest step in the song’s rise from regional hit to national smash. Released in mid-January, the song started life as a freestyle on Jacksonville, Florida freestyle series “Kreepin Through The Streetz.” When Dlow posted a snippet from the freestyle on his Instagram feed, the post immediately went viral, generating over 8 million views and drawing comments from the likes of DaBaby and Luh Tyler, and many others. The song built grassroots momentum upon its official release, generating over 51k creates on TikTok, getting posted on social media by fans like Lil Baby and Solange, and trending on YouTube with a still image video. That grassroots bubble quickly exploded, and “Get In With Me” grew from an internet hit to an IRL problem–it currently ranks #11 on Apple Music’s All-Genre Chart, after peaking at #1 over the weekend, and at #8 on Shazam’s U.S. Top 200. Over the weekend, players from the Kansas City Chiefs turned up to the song in the locker room after winning their second straight Super Bowl.
Born and raised in Port Salerno, a city on Florida’s Atlantic coast north of West Palm Beach, Bossman Dlow emerged in late 2023 as one of the burgeoning Florida street scene’s most exciting voices. Before “Get In With Me,” the 25-year-old rapper built a loyal following with songs like “The Biggest” ft. YTB Fatt (2.5 million YT views), “Phil Jackson” (1 million YT views), and “Rotation” (1.4 million views). Those three anthems and more appear on 2 Slippery, Dlow’s first release for Alamo Records, which dropped in December. Featuring additional features from fellow Floridians Loe Shimmy and Woodboy Gee, the tape racked up over 2 million streams on Apple Music in its first week, reaching #17 on the platform’s Hip-Hop Albums chart and #47 on the All-Genre Albums chart. The rising star has been generating over 19 million streams per week across his catalog.
With a national hit on his hands and the world in his sights, Bossman Dlow is ready for stardom. Stay tuned for much more.
