Metro Boomin season is still going strong all year long! Today, the legendary GRAMMY® Award-nominated diamond-certified producer, DJ, and St. Louis-born artist proudly presents a slick and cinematic music video to accompany latest single “Loose Screws” [feat. Skooly, Shad Da God, & DJ Spinz] out now.
Helmed by director Hidji World, it unfolds as a classic Atlanta-style visual. Models turn up and twerk in front of a massive American flag backdrop, and Skooly, Shad Da God, and DJ Spinz trade verses to the camera. The vignettes reflect the lyrics, bringing the words to life. Shad Da God takes over Benjamin Franklin’s spot on a giant $100 bill, and he proclaims, “I’m married to the money, no wed’ (What you tell ‘em?)” From exotic cars to racks of cash, it’s the ultimate party hosted by Metro Boomin and Co.
Of course, it shines as a standout from his brand-new project, Metro Boomin Presents: A Futuristic Summa (Hosted by DJ Spinz), out now. Thus far, the album has generated a staggering 177 million total streams with impressive consumption of 119K albums to date. Upon release, Metro Boomin Presents: A Futuristic Summa (Hosted by DJ Spinz) debuted in the Top 25 of the Billboard 200 as well as the Top 10 of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart.

The clip for “Loose Screws” lands in the wake of the video for “Take Me Thru Dere” [feat. Quavo, Breskii, YK Niece, & DJ Spinz], which has amassed nearly 9 million YouTube views. Logging five weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, the song has posted up over 60.5 million global streams and counting as well as inspiring over 1 million video creates on TikTok. It vaulted to #1 on the Shazam Top US 200 (Hip-Hop/Rap) chart, #1 on Shazam in Atlanta, Charlotte, and Chicago, #1 on the TikTok Viral 50 Chart, and #1 on the TikTok US Top 50 Chart. Plus, it cracked the Top 5 of the Apple Music ATL Top 25.
On the project, he throws it back to the 21st century’s golden age of Atlanta hip-hop, rewinding to the era of 2010-2012 when the scene really began to catch fire – especially the Futuristic Era, when Yung L.A. and J Money carved a new lane that defined Atlanta’s next wave and inspired a generation of hitmakers. In order to get into this mindset, he tapped a cohort of iconic ATL MCs for these tracks, including 2 Chainz, Gucci Mane, Roscoe Dash, T.I., Travis Porter, Quavo, Young Dro, and Young Thug to name a few. Together, they channel classic trap vibes, timeless Southern swagger, and enough heat to scorch the stage at Magic City. Additionally, Metro Boomin, ushers in new prominent female ATL rappers (BunnaB, YKNiece) by connecting them with these ATL rap legends while also paying homage to Young Scooter and Takeoff. With all these amazing nods to the ATL rap scene, this project serves as the ultimate love letter to Atlanta.
Since 2013, GRAMMY® Award-nominated diamond-certified producer, DJ, and artist Metro Boomin has defined not only the sound, but the direction of hip-hop. Tallying 20 billion streams, he impressively endures as the “Highest-Streaming Producer” in music. With dozens of smashes to his name including 87 Billboard Hot 100 hits as a lead artist, his unmatched, unprecedented, and undeniable discography encompasses the 5x platinum “Jumpman” by Drake and Future, quadruple-platinum “Bad and Boujee” [feat. Lil Uzi Vert] by Migos, 14x Platinum “Congratulations” [feat. Quavo] by Post Malone, 9x Platinum “Mask Off” by Future, and many more. He has notched five #1 debuts on the Billboard 200 with the platinum full-length solo debut LP Not All Heroes Wear Capes [2018], gold-certified Savage Mode II with 21 Savage, and his platinum sophomore album HEROES & VILLAINS [2022] hailed by Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Clash, Slant and more. In the wake of the latter, he notably scored 2024 GRAMMY® Award nods for “Producer of the Year” and “Best Rap Album.” He also architected the official soundtrack for Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse. The album—Metro Boomin Presents Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse—became his “6th Top 10 debut on the Billboard 200.” In 2023, It’s no wonder Variety crowned him its ‘”Producer of the Year,” Time touted him on the “Time100Next,” and he took home BET Hip Hop Awards for “Best DJ of the Year” and “Best Producer of the Year.” 2024 represented another creative, commercial, and critical peak for Metro Boomin. He united with Future for the blockbuster one-two punch of back-to-back Billboard 200 #1 albums: the platinum selling album WE DON’T TRUST YOU and WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU. This era launched “Like That” [with Kendrick Lamar] to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks and ignited the sold-out We Trust You Tour. However, Metro never stops, and 2025 continues to be no exception.
Metro Boomin pushes forward into the future as both a producer and an artist, upping his game and elevating the culture in the process.
