Detroit rapper Peezy releases his highly anticipated new album STILL GHETTO, a 17-track statement piece out now via EMPIRE. The star-studded project includes heavyweight collaborators Rick Ross, French Montana, Big Sean, G Herbo, Jeremih, 42 Dugg, 2 Chainz, Babyface Ray, Larry June, Chicken P, and more, cementing Peezy’s place as both a pillar of Detroit hip-hop and a respected voice in rap nationwide.
Alongside the album, Peezy releases the official video for the opener, “The City Is Mine,” a bold reinterpretation of Jay Z’s 1997 classic. The visual shows him riding through Detroit in a Maybach, tossing money from the window with the city skyline in the background, as he reflects on more than two decades of grind, sacrifice, and perseverance.

Three years in the making, STILL GHETTO is Peezy’s most personal and ambitious project to date. Building on the success of his 2023 album GHETTO, the new body of work blends raw street narratives with moments of vulnerability, offering a full portrait of an artist who has endured, evolved, and risen above while staying true to his roots.
The project moves seamlessly between high-energy club bangers, heartfelt confessions, and raw street anthems. It includes fan favorites “All That” ft. Chicken P, “So Ghetto” ft. Icewear Vezzo, and “Let’s Talk About It” ft. Babyface Ray, the previously released “The Warm Up” earns a guest feature from French Montana, while Rick Ross elevates “Hide The Rest” with his signature opulence. Whereas Jeremih adds smooth R&B textures to “Lovin’ On Me,” showcasing Peezy’s rare vulnerability in love, and Big Sean closes the album with a striking gospel full of Detroit pride.
While the album is stacked with heavyweight features, Peezy commands the spotlight on solo standouts “If I Can Make It” and “Day Dreaming.” With vivid storytelling, he paints powerful pictures of the hardships that shaped him while charting his evolution. Through raw honesty and introspection, Peezy transforms his journey into both a testament and a tribute to the streets that built him.
A founding member of the influential Team Eastside collective, Peezy has been a defining voice in Detroit’s rap since the early 2010s. His breakout came with Only Built 4 Diamond Links and the RIAA Platinum-certified hit “2 Million Up,” which has racked up over 500 million streams to date. Beyond his own success, Peezy has played a key role in elevating a new generation of Michigan artists, while continuing to expand his BOYZ Ent brand. With over 391 million career streams, more than 1 million monthly listeners, and a fiercely loyal global fanbase, Peezy’s influence is undeniable. His 2023 album GHETTO further cemented his standing, generating over 750 million global streams and collaborations with Ty Dolla $ign, Babyface Ray, Key Glock, Larry June, Money Man, and BabyTron.
With STILL GHETTO, Peezy delivers a career-defining project that showcases his resilience, authenticity, and evolution. Both a reflection of his past and a blueprint for his future, the album is a powerful reminder of why Peezy remains one of the city’s most respected voices.
