In this blog post, we mention some of the best hip hop rap songs by Fivio Foreign. One of Brooklyn’s most prominent Drill artists might be on the best run of his career thus far and hip hop fans have been raving about it.
Bio: Who is Fivio Foreign?
Maxie Lee Ryles III (born March 29, 2022) also known as Fivio Foreign is a rapper from Brooklyn, New York.
The artist is well known for making drill music. It’s a sub-genre of hip hop which started with artists like Chief Keef and Lil Bibby on the South Side of Chicago in the early 2010s before jumping the Atlantic to the United Kingdom, where it mixed with grime and other variations of British rap before making it to Brooklyn.
On his rise to success, the rapper was associated with the New York City-based collective, Woo Gang. Fellow hip-hop hitmaker and friend, Pop Smoke, was also a part of the same group and achieved fame around the same with hits of his own.
Fivio Foreign is easily one of the most exciting new artists to burst into the mainstream. The rapper’s made major strides with songs like “Wetty” and “Big Drip” that gained a ton of traction on the streets before the 2020 pandemic lockdown. Fivio was also named as one of XXL’s Freshman Class of 2020.
Best Hip Hop Rap Songs by Fivio Foreign
1. BIG DRIP
“BIG DRIP” is a remix of a song by another Woo rapper by the name of Dafi Woo, who’s song was name “Not Folk” as a diss record towards all the GD’s in Brooklyn. The same beat was again used during 22gz, a Choo rapper’s, Funk Flex freestyle. Seeing as how 22gz is a GD (Gangster Disciple), and this beat has mainly been used by GDK rappers, you can come to see just how much the Woo’s have taken over the rap scene. Though he’s patient, his music is still high-energy—and the music video filmed in front of confused Brooklyn Bridge Park attendees adds to the chaos. Seasons are overrated.

2. Richer Than Ever
Like Fivio’s breakout single “BIG DRIP”, “Richer Than Ever” is yet another ad-lib marathon, in which you can’t tell where the hook ends and the verse begins for the BK drill rapper. The single was released on December 12th, 2019.

3. Trust
The song begs to point out the differences between him, his group of friends, and everyone outside of that network. Produced by AXL Beats, “Trust” is part of Fivio’s debut album titled B.I.B.L.E. The late King Von was also in the music video, alongside Fivio and company.

4. Move Like A Boss ft. Young M.A
After dropping the track “Move Like a Boss” with Young M.A., Fivio Foreign returned within a month with new visuals for the hard-hitting single. Directed by JLShotThat and produced by Visionary Vision LLC, the music video sees Fivio and Young M.A. trade verses over Non Native, Bordeaux, and Saint Cardona-produced beats, while their crew joins them. Lavish jewelry adorns the rappers’ necks and wrists as they rap in a graffiti-covered room.

5. Drive By
During quarantine, Fivio Foreign shared the official visual for his new single “Drive By“. The production carries less intensity than previous singles but it serves as a reflection of the change in Fivio’s life since his career began taking off. He makes subtle flexes like, “gainin’ weight, I need a large” and vows to make sure those are riding for him are also eating off of his success. At what appears to be his home in the state of New Jersey, the Brooklyn-native rising star flaunts his assets (vehicles, cash and jewellery) with a few friends and a special woman.

6. 13 Going On 30
Fivio Foreign dropped his new single “13 Going on 30,” which was released alongside a brand new video. In it, Fivio is openly reaping the benefits of his recent success.

7. City of Gods
Brooklyn-based rapper Fivio Foreign teamed up with Kanye West and Alicia Keys for his new single, “City Of Gods.” The single is included on the drill rapper’s debut album, B.I.B.L.E., which was executive produced by West. The black-and-white clip features all three artists and is dedicated to Tahjay “T Dott” Dobson, a close friend and collaborator of Fivio Foreign who was shot and killed in New York City.

8. Story Time
Produced by AyooAA, SavBeats and 808k Antares, “Story Time” finds the Brooklyn rapper reflecting about his time behind bars. Directed by Alonozo Hellerbach, the video for ‘Story Time’ perfectly illustrates Fivio Foreign raps’ vivid bars. Telling the tale of an unfortunate event, miserable prison conditions, and standing on street code/morals, the Brooklyn Drill rapper displays growth, as far as his music content.

9. Self Made (Freestyle)
Fivio adds to his collection of hits with “Self Made (Freestyle),” an AXL Beats and Yoz Beatz-produced offering that sees him rapping about how he’s reached this stage of success on his own. Over a video game-y loop with monstrous bass, Fivio details his accomplishments and stills his haters, challenging them to “make another one” and sneering “I hope a lot of n****s get sanctioned.” The simple video follows Fivio as he parties and records flanked by women and goons.
10. Squeeze (Freestyle)
Fivio droped off another single titled “Squeeze (Freestyle),” another hard-hitting drill cut that’s sure to force a replay the second the bass drops. As expected, the track also sees Fivio delivering the hard-hitting, in-your-face raps that he’s well-known for. With an eerie vocal sample and bumping drums, a classic drill instrumental backs his fast-paced spitting as Fivio asserts himself as the king of New York once more.
11. Bop It ft. Polo G
The Brooklyn rapper released his Kenny Beats-produced single “Bop It,”. The track was heavily inspired by the Hasbro audio game of the same name, as it begins with the familiar commands, “bop it,” “twist it,” and “pull it.” Also, young Chicago great Polo G shows up for a guest verse and absolutely annihilates it. In the video, Fivio, Polo, and Kenny play with Nerf guns in a mansion full of models.

12. Fully Focused (Freestyle)
The rapper dropped off “Fully Focused” along with an accompanying music video. The rapper tackles the ghostly production with ferocity and swagger with adlibs that continue to pop harder than the actual bars themselves. As with most Brooklyn drill videos, Fivio Foreign lets the viewer into his world of money, studio life, and the streets with his crew, keeping the fans dancing to the cross-Atlantic sound.
