Lil Yee Turns His Pain into Perseverance on Most Personal Project, “Unbreakable”

San Francisco Native Lil Yee has consistently proven his mastery of forging intimate connections with his listeners with an authentic feel that’s equally as street savvy as it is heartfelt. Continuing to use music as a healing process for himself and fans alike, Lil Yee returns to share his new album, Unbreakable, available now via G-Affair/EMPIRE.

Unbreakable serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of a man and his music. The journey of Lil Yee’s most personal album to date was born in the wake of tragedy, as Yee’s uncle, role model and biggest supporter, ChiAli was murdered in San Francisco in 2020. “It took a toll on me. It made me buckle down on who I am, what I’m here for, and what I need to do,” he admits. It moved the Bay Area artist to halt his original release plans and create a new album that honored the life of the man who helped Yee transition from the streets to a life as an artist and father. Recognizing his own strength and dedication to fulfilling the promises he made to his uncle, Lil Yee proves that Unbreakable is more than an album — it’s a personal mantra.

Payroll Giovanni & YS Hustle “All Week” In New Visual

Only a week after releasing his highly touted project “Realer Than Real”, YS is back with a brand new visual for “All Week” featuring Detroit legend Payroll Giovanni. The disco-like production provided by Helluva sets the table for YS and Payroll to electric slide all over the track. YS explains what a seven day period is like for him when he states, “I was just thuggin’ on the block on Sunday, flew to the D when I land it was Monday, Tuesday went and grabbed that Glock now it’s doomsday, Wednesday my dog just hit me said the food came, Thursday I was thumbing through it playing with them blues, Friday we was sliding with a dirty tool, Saturday I woke up then I watched the news”. Payroll then gave a description of his exploits on his verse, “Monday I was stocked, Tuesday I had a couple, by Friday I’m iced up leaving bitches puzzled”.
