BlocBoy JB Makes His Billboard Hot 100 Debut With His ‘Look Alive’ Drake Collaboration
by Staff Editor
What a difference a Drake feature can make. For BlocBoy JB, he’s the latest rapper that benefits from a Drake appearance on one of his records. Presumably not on the radar of a lot of people due to not being familiar with his material, that’s all slated to change.
Sharing his ‘Look Alive’ record with the world less than 2 weeks ago, BlocBoy JB has made his Billboard Hot 100 debut in a huge way as the rapper lands at no. 6 on this week’s chart. Even better, the rapper makes history by being the first rapper without prior Hot 100 entries to debut within the top 10.
